In Episode 1140 titled "Girls Day Mystery 3," Sonoko urgently gathers the Five Detective Girls—Ran, Haibara, Ayumi, and Detective Sato—after learning about a suspicious advertisement. The ad offers 50,000 yen to anyone who appears at a specific location dressed as a ninja, an unusually high reward that raises concerns about potential criminal activity. Determined to investigate undercover, the group dons ninja costumes to blend in and gather information.
As they move through Beika City, they notice a growing number of people in ninja attire, particularly in the eastern part of the city. Haibara suspects that this mass gathering serves as a distraction to divert police attention from a planned crime in the west. They consider possible targets and focus on the Kaneko Jewelry Store, which is displaying the valuable Kingscote Crown crafted by a renowned metal engraver.
Upon arriving at the jewelry store, they find Kaneko-san unconscious and the crown missing. Resolved to catch the thief, they decide to employ "ninja techniques" to outsmart the culprit. Haibara suggests manipulating information by posting false updates on social media and spreading fabricated reports about police checkpoints and heightened security measures to mislead the thief. Their goal is to use targeted misinformation to lure the culprit to Beika Station.
By communicating directly with the thief, they pose as informants and offer advice based on their fake updates. Trusting this information, the thief heads to the station, unaware that a trap awaits. The group prepares an ambush and carefully observes passersby for suspicious behavior. Detective Sato identifies a man trying to remain inconspicuous and confronts him. When he attempts to flee, Ran blocks his path, and they apprehend him. A search of his bag confirms the stolen crown.
After successfully recovering the crown, Kaneko-san expresses deep gratitude to the group for retrieving the valuable artifact. Later, they celebrate their success together. It turns out that Sonoko and Ran had originally visited the ninja amusement park to buy popular ninja keychains, explaining their familiarity with the park and its activities. As they reflect on their adventure, the girls joke about future escapades and suggest dressing as spies next time.
