However, he didn't key in anything but Shinichi remembers the sad incident at the famous film director's villa. It was during the day where Shinichi and Ran were invited to act as supporting characters for the upcoming movie for Nagata Akihiro. During the break, he was caught kissing newcomer actress Ikutsuki Saori by his wife, Nagata Chisato and nearly breaking a fight with her, nearly attempting to kill Saori with a knife. After the argument been settled, everyone is treated with a cup of tea, only to witness Akihiro die from poisoning. Shinichi deduces that he died from potassium cyanide in his tea. Soon Shinichi places a trap and proves that the culprit is Ishihara Kana, the villa's manager. Turns out that all of the tea cups were placed with potassium cyanide only the differences are that she placed it at a certain portion where only left handed people would get killed, which Akihiro happens to be a lefty. It also reveals that Kana happens to be Kimura Keisukue's wife who was having an affair with Chisato as it was proven due to her bracelet. Because of that incident, Kimura was driven to death as his dreams of being an actor was shattered.
