Locked Room Murder on Live Broadcast! Exposing the Secret Curse (1x2)

: 14, 2011

The Case of September 2, 2010 reveals that it was another murder case in a television program called "The Showdown" where he appears to prove that Washimi Jiro is not a psychic. During the show, after revealing one of Jiro's tricks, the host Harada Takayuki jokingly say Jiro's a fraud and ask him to prove it. Jiro manages proves it to him by strangling him and murder him on the spot. However, Shinichi doesn't believe in ESP despite seeing it. He manages to prove that he wasn't strangled but was poisoned as Harada actually faked being strangled by Jiro's psychic powers. Not satisfied, he uses his powers only to be nearly killed by the falling pillar. Finally Shinichi proves to everyone that Hayashi Seiko murdered Harada and framed Jiro by slipping him the weapon during Shinichi's demonstration of the strangling trick. The motive was she was supposed to be Harada's assistant after working for 7 years with him but Mizutani Aiko was his assistant instead. Despite admitting her murder, Jiro was not satisfied and tells everyone his psychic powers are real, while everyone leaves the stage, leaving him behind not knowing that a bent nail has reshaped itself. Back in the white room, they manage to open another door after keying in the panel "Magic" and enter the third white room, only this time there were multiple gunshots while the panel shows July 9, 2010, as Kogoro remembers that case.
