👀 SPOILER-FREE SUMMARY

A character-driven mystery that puts the spotlight on two beloved supporting characters: Officer Chiba and traffic officer Naeko Miike. The Detective Boys stumble onto a case involving threatening vandalism, and rather than taking center stage themselves, they play matchmaker-investigators by pushing Chiba and his first love to team up. The tone balances Conan's signature puzzle-solving with lighthearted romantic comedy as the two officers navigate both the case and their personal history. Pacing is deliberately measured for a two-parter opener, layering clues about a vandalism pattern while letting the character dynamics breathe. A parking lot collision raises the stakes just enough to hook viewers for the conclusion. Expect a warmer, more personal episode that rewards fans who enjoy Conan's extended cast getting their moment in the investigative spotlight.

🔥 KEY MOMENTS

⚠️ Spoiler Alert!

Chiba's Car Vandalized

Officer Chiba discovers his car defaced with a threatening message, immediately setting the mystery in motion and putting him on edge.

First Love Reunion

The Detective Boys push Chiba to team up with traffic officer Naeko Miike — his first love — to investigate the vandalism, turning a routine case into something deeply personal for him.

Underground Lot Collision

While Chiba and Naeko dig into a string of vandalism incidents in an underground parking lot, a rear-end collision erupts mid-investigation, suspected to be the vandal's handiwork escalating in real time.

Three Suspects Cornered

Police seal off the parking lot and identify three individuals present at the scene as potential suspects, locking the case into a classic Conan closed-circle setup.

The Wind Reveals Naeko

A sudden gust of wind sweeps across Naeko's face, and Chiba sees her clearly for what feels like the first time — a charged, emotional beat that connects her to a memory from his past and rekindles old feelings.

📍 ARC CONTEXT

This canon episode follows 'The Hot Trap in Chocolate' and launches a self-contained two-part arc centered on Officer Chiba and Naeko Miike, characters who rarely headline their own cases. It establishes the mystery and relationship dynamics that will be resolved in the immediate follow-up, 'The Joint Investigation with First Love (Part 2),' making it essential viewing for the pair's storyline.
