In episode 1122 of "Detective Conan" titled "Stakeout 3," the mystery surrounding the murder of 26-year-old city official Fujino Miki is unraveled. She was attacked on her way home from work, beaten to death, and strangled. At the crime scene, two café stamp cards are found—one belonging to Fujino and the other presumably to the culprit, as it was discovered on a bloodstain.
The investigation leads Detective Conan and the police to a local café frequented by Fujino. They suspect that the owner of the second stamp card could be a regular customer. Throughout the episode, Conan, the Detective Boys, and a witness named Mayuzumi Kayo, who claims to have seen the killer's face, stake out the café in hopes that the murderer might return.
During the surveillance, several guests come and go, but none of them match Kayo's description of the suspect—until a confrontation occurs with a disguised man whom Conan mistakenly identifies as Hayashi-sensei. Although this initially turns out to be a misunderstanding, the encounter reveals that Kayo, despite her farsightedness, can see well even from a distance.
The tension peaks when Naruoka Ryo, a popular actor, is falsely accused due to a series of comical misunderstandings involving his presence and the children's interactions. However, the real twist comes when Conan deduces that the true culprit might be someone else present during the stakeout. With Kayo's sharp observation and a detailed analysis of the situation, Conan exposes Ando Kazuya, a café employee, as the murderer. Ando attempts to dismiss the evidence as circumstantial, but his own statements inadvertently confirm his guilt.
The episode concludes with Ando's arrest, and the Detective Boys, along with Kayo, reflect on the events, emphasizing themes of observation, deduction, and the unpredictable nature of criminal investigations.
