## Plot[[edit](/wiki/index.php?title=Suspicious_Visitors&action=edit&section=5 "Edit section: Plot")]
At [Café Poirot](/wiki/Caf%C3%A9_Poirot "Café Poirot"), Sonoko, Ran and Sera are sitting at a table and staring at a [matchstick puzzle](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/matchstick_puzzle "wikipedia:matchstick puzzle") laid out by Azusa. By rearranging only of the five matches, they should be able to turn the "10" into a "1", but the shape has to stay the same. Thinking she just solved it, Sonoko says that one can just look at the matchsticks sideways and all the matches would overlap and look like a "1", but Conan comments says it is probably not the answer, as she has not moved a single matchstick. As Sonoko gets angry, Conan decides to help her out a bit and knocks down his glass of water. As Ran helps Conan clean the spilled water with Sonoko reluctantly apologizing, Sera sees Ran's wet towel and realizes how to solve the puzzle. The answer lied in the towel, which can be used to hold the matchstick from the "1" next to the "0" upright so one matchstick stays in the middle of the square laid out by the other four matchsticks on top of the towel, and looking from above, it would look like the die face for 1 : "⚀ ". Ran and Sonoko praise Sera, while Azusa comments that it is the first time a customer ever solved it. Amuro arrives at the table and says that Sera probably got the hint when Conan purposefully spilled the water, but Conan denies it, while Sera asserts that she solved it by herself. Sonoko then tries to search other matchstick puzzles which would require one to "remove only one", but stumbles upon news of the last murder case where the murderer "took one finger away" from the crime scene as trophy before being caught by the police. Sera says that the culprit confessed but neither the motive nor if they had any accomplices has been revealed yet. Azusa then comments that she feels like she has seen the culprit's face before, but is not sure about it.
At the same moment, a customer wearing a facemask and a [fisherman's hat](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bucket_hat "wikipedia:Bucket hat") asks for Azusa and then complains about the beef stew, saying that it tastes exactly the same as the one from his favourite restaurant. He then asks for the secret ingredient, but Amuro interrupts and proudly hands him the recipe, but lets him know how it is cooked can change depending on the day. The flustered customer, Kiyoshi Hanke, then leaves the restaurant while sneezing. Azusa then comments about how she feels like she has seen him before too. Behind them, another customer with a face mask, and wearing a baseball cap, Reita Kanamaru, coughs a little bit and asks for a coffee refill. Later, while talking to a third customer, Keisuke Omura, who also wears a face mask, and a beanie, Azusa exclaims herself. Omura asks her to keep quiet about their conversation, before coughing a bit and saying he probably caught hay fever, when Azusa asked him. As he is preparing pasta, Amuro notices that they have ran out of [herb salt](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_edible_salts "wikipedia:List of edible salts") and asks Azusa to go to the supermarket to get some, but she says she went earlier because she noticed, but they did not have it. Conan then interrupts, saying he knows where they sell it, at a store near [Shinichi](/wiki/Shinichi "Shinichi")'s [house](/wiki/Kudo_Residence "Kudo Residence") and that it is a bit of a walk, as he remembered when he was Shinichi, his [mother](/wiki/Yukiko_Kudo "Yukiko Kudo") would have him come to that store to buy some. Amuro makes a comment about how Conan is knowledgeable about the area around Shinichi's house, and Conan says that it is just because the [professor](/wiki/Hiroshi_Agasa "Hiroshi Agasa")'s house is close. Conan and Azusa thus decide to go buy some over there. After they leave, Sera takes a peek at Amuro.
Thirty minutes later, as the two had not come back, a worried Ran gives a call to Conan, asking him if that store ran out as well, but Conan tells him that Azusa and him are being followed and that he is trying to shake the followers off, so he wants her to tell Amuro to come to their rescue where they are. Right as Ran relays the information, Amuro runs off to Conan's location. He thens sees Conan and Azusa waiving at them from the other of the street, but before he can cross, a bus darts in front of them, and right after it leaves, the two disappeared. They however see an old lady with a stroller near where they disappeared and run off to her and ask her if she has Conan and Azusa. She says that she did, and that they seemed to be arguing, but when she turned around, they were gone. She remembered they were yelling and saying stop and also remembered the line "you're the guy from earlier". Sera, Amuro, Sonoko and Ran then wonder if maybe one of the customers from earlier abducted them. The old lady then sneezes and says she has cat allergy, which was probably triggered since one of the girls held a cat. Ran realizes that it is because she held [Goro](/wiki/Goro "Goro") earlier when she went by her [mother](/wiki/Eri_Kisaki "Eri Kisaki")'s office. The old lady just remembers that she heard a sneeze from behind when they were scuffling and she just saw a black van leaving.
At an undisclosed location, Azusa wakes up in a room with old wooden walls and floorboards. She is shackled by a chain on her ankle to Conan, who is still unconscious. She remembers that a black van stopped in front of them and she was then tased and fell unconscious. She then wonders what to do, as she is not able to wake Conan up. As there is fridge behind them, Azusa walks up to it and prepares herself to grab a drink, but as she opens the door, she sees a glass jar with a putrefied head inside and screams.
