Synopsis
Masked samurai targets treasure thieves; Conan and Heiji decode ancient puzzles to stop murders in Kyoto.
A masked samurai stalks the night, striking fear into the criminal underworld by targeting members of the Genjibotaru—a secretive gang devoted to plundering Buddhist treasures. As the police struggle to uncover the killer's identity or motive, the case reaches the desk of Kogorou Mouri, who is summoned to a Kyoto temple after monks receive a mysterious letter containing an ancient puzzle tied to their missing statue. Young detective Conan Edogawa joins forces with Heiji Hattori, a high-school sleuth with deep knowledge of Kyoto's hidden history. Together they must decipher the cryptic clues left at each crime scene, racing to understand the connection between the thefts, the murders, and the city's forgotten past. As their investigation deepens, the lines between hunter and hunted blur, revealing that some secrets are worth killing for—and others worth dying for.
