In the city of Haido, Conan Edogawa and Sera Masumi visit the Haido Bookstore on Ran's recommendation, where they encounter Serra's husband, Rinzaki Danji, a successful author who frequently stays at the hotel recently affected by serial bombings. Sera reveals that she possesses the code used in these bombings and invites Conan to her hotel room to discuss further details.
At the hotel, Rinzaki discovers a suspicious code on his desk, immediately raising concerns about a possible bomb threat. The hotel's lawyer, Kisaki Eri, arrives to investigate the situation and emphasizes the urgency of preventing another explosion. Conan realizes that the code is a rail fence cipher referencing specific room numbers and ultimately identifies Room 2114 as the likely location of the bomb.
During the investigation, hotel employees Ronda Seiko and the bellboy Kureishi Aruto come under suspicion. Rinzaki's odd behavior—including his history of smoking in non-smoking rooms and his frequent complaints—heightens suspicion. Further inquiries reveal that Kureishi may have forged a spare key to access rooms unnoticed.
As the deadline approaches, Eri coordinates the evacuation of six potential target rooms and discreetly involves the police. Meanwhile, Conan discovers that Kureishi orchestrated the bombings to eliminate Rinzaki, who had been threatening his marijuana business. Kureishi attempted to conceal his actions by using pre-recorded phone calls and multiple devices to hide his involvement.
In a dramatic showdown, Conan exposes Kureishi's plan by pointing out inconsistencies in his behavior and the technical details of the bomb placements. With the evidence presented, Kureishi is arrested just before the planned detonation time. Mary, Serra's mother, successfully defuses the bomb, ensuring the safety of the hotel guests.
