About Case Closed: The Scarlet Bullet
The prestigious international sporting event, World Sports Games (WSG), held every four years, is going to be hosted in Tokyo. The media are also focusing their attention on the Hyper Linear train that can reach 1,000 km/h and launch of its service on the opening day of the WSG.
However multiple incidents occur in which top executives of WSG's sponsor companies are kidnapped but then are immediately released. No one seems to know who might be behind these incidents, but similar occurrences were observed during the WSG inauguration in U.S. 15 years ago.
When Conan learns of Alan McKenzie, former chief of FBI and now the head of WSG committee, is to get on the first run of the bullet train, he and Shuichi Akai make their move. Meanwhile, Akai's sister Masumi Sera and his mother Mary are also in pursuit of the same case and have boarded the train. To make matters even more curious, Akai's younger brother and professional Shogi player Shukichi Haneda too happens to be visiting Nagoya, where the train is scheduled to begin its run…!

About Case Closed: The Fist of Blue Sapphire
The world's largest sapphire, “The Fist of Blue Sapphire" was alleged to have been lost at sea near Singapore along with a pirate vessel in the late 19th century.
When a local billionaire appears to the public with a plan to retrieve the sapphire, a murder occurs in Marina Bay Sands. At the scene, a bloodied notice card from Kid the Phantom Thief is found.
Meanwhile, Ran and Sonoko are visiting Singapore to see the karate tournament being held there. Conan, not having a passport, had to stay in Japan. However, with Kid needing Conan for a part of his plan, Conan is tricked and brought to Singapore against his will! Having no choice but to help Kid in order to get back home, Conan is stripped of his glasses, watch, and clothes and is forced to disguise himself. He meets Ran, who is unaware of the situation, and calls himself Arthur Hirai on the spur of the moment.
Kid gets information that the blue sapphire is stored in an underground safe of a mansion. He seems to have sneaked into the mansion easily, but a dangerous trap awaits him. There stands Kyogoku Makoto, the invincible Karate warrior with 400 wins and zero losses!
As if to forewarn something ominous... Singapore's famed monument, the Merlion spews out scarlet red water! Is something terrible coming to Conan and Kid's way?!
