Reiko Saeki (Case Closed)

Reiko Saeki (Mika Doi) is a minor villainess from "Sports Club Murder Case", episode 2.19 of Case Closed (airdate February 10, 1997). She was the manager of the recently renovated Saeki Sports Club, and was shown planning a grand reopening ceremony with champion diver Naoya Saijo attending to perform.
Later on, after giving the press a tour of the club, Conan Edogawa witnessed a heated confronted between Reiko and Naoya, during which Reiko was revealed to be a greedy businesswoman who was using tax evasion to benefit the club. Naoya had learned about Reiko's villainous scheme and began blackmailing her, and Reiko was confronting him over subtly revealing his knowledge of Reiko's secret in front of the press.
During the argument, the villainous Reiko demanded that Naoya keep quiet about her tax fraud, stating that if the press found out her secret, the tax office would follow suit, before reminding Naoya of the private party that was being held before the ceremony. Later that night, however, Naoya was found dead in what was initially labeled a diving accident, but was later revealed by Conan to be a murder. Reiko was suspected by Conan of being Naoya's killer, but the culprit was ultimately revealed to be his former diving rival, who Naoya was also blackmailing. It was left unknown if Reiko was arrested for her crimes.
