The episode titled "Did I Do It?" begins at the Mori Detective Agency, where a 38-year-old office worker named Sako Manabu seeks help. Sako cannot remember the events of the previous night, during which he got drunk after a bad day at work and a breakup with his girlfriend. He wakes up with a bump on his head and blood on his clothes, fearing he may have committed a crime.
Mori Kogoro takes on the case and begins investigating alongside Conan. They find clues such as fragrant olive leaves, concrete on Sako's shoes, and a gold fiber with blood on it. They also discover a receipt from a club called Eden. At Eden, the owner, Hata Leila, shows them photos of Sako taken between 11 PM and 4 AM, suggesting he was there all night.
However, Conan notices inconsistencies in the photos, such as the absence of concrete on Sako's shoes in the earlier picture. Leila admits that Sako left the club for some time but returned later. A video by a part-time worker, Chino Atsushi, shows Sako muttering that he killed someone, deepening the mystery.
The investigation leads them to a construction site where Sako's footprints are found in the concrete. Security footage shows him leaving the site with blood on his clothes. They also learn about an unsolved theft case that occurred the same night but conclude it is unrelated.
Conan and the team discover a corpse, Koba Shokichi, in an abandoned building. Sako recalls pushing someone and fears he killed Koba. However, Conan deduces that Sako was actually attempting to perform CPR on the already injured Koba. Sako had a scuffle with the real culprit, who left him unconscious.
Conan identifies the true culprit as Morozumi Tetsuo, a construction site flagman. Morozumi is caught lying about not being at the construction site and is linked to the case by a unique fiber found under Sako's fingernails. Morozumi confesses, revealing he killed Koba in a drunken rage.
At the end of the episode, Conan reflects on how alcohol revealed the true nature of Sako and Morozumi. A preview for the next episode, "Hagiwara Chihaya, Goddess of Wind (Part One)," is shown, hinting at another exciting case.
