On a dark night, the Japanese police are raided by a spy. Secret files of different countries' intelligence agencies, such as Britain’s MI6, Germany's BDN, and America's CIA and FBI, are going to be taken, but public safety officers led by Tooru Amuro arrive just in time. The spy steals a car and escapes. The spy and Amuro are then locked side by side on the highway, and just as an accident with multiple cars is about to occur, the spy's car is hit by FBI agent Shuichi Akai's rifle bullet and it falls off the roadway. The next day, Conan and his friends go to a newly-remodeled aquarium in Tokyo. Under the main attraction, a Ferris wheel, Conan finds an attractive woman alone and injured. Her eyes are different colours. The woman is suffering from amnesia so severe that she doesn't even remember her own name, and the cellphone she is carrying is broken. Conan and his friends promise to help her regain her memory, so they stay with her.
