The previous mini-arc finally granted long-time fans their wish: Heiji Hattori and Kazuha Toyama are officially a couple!
Watching their feelings click at last was pure payoff.
Starting with File 1134—material slated for inclusion in Volume 107—the story shifts focus once again.
What can readers expect from this new case?
This time the spotlight falls on the Police Academy Team, a group whose past ties to the main cast keep surprising us.
Below you’ll find our spoiler-filled breakdown and quick reactions to Detective Conan File 1134, “A Chance Meeting”
Detective Conan File 1134 “A Chance Meeting” – Spoilers
The chapter opens in the Mouri Detective Agency.
Kogoro asks Ran, “What does te-ro-chi-chi-mo-mo mean?”
He explains that Café Poirot’s master gave him a drip-coffee pack; the curious lettering was printed on the label.
The phrase jogs Ran’s memory of a conversation she once had with Police Academy cadet Hiromitsu Morofushi.
Meanwhile, a broken kitchen faucet has flooded the apartment, and seeing Conan’s soccer ball triggers yet another flash of the past…
File 1134 Spoiler ① – Ran Met the Police Academy Team Seven Years Ago
Seven years earlier, Shinichi accidentally slammed his soccer ball into an outdoor faucet, sending water gushing everywhere.
While Shinichi and Ran panicked, rookie traffic officer Kenji Hagiwara appeared.
“Hey, kid—don’t make your girl cry,” Hagiwara scolded before jamming a baseball into the pipe to stop the flow.
This moment takes place immediately after the end-credit scene of the film The Bride of Halloween.
File 1134 Spoiler ② – Consulting the Police Academy Quartet
Hagiwara soon reunites with his pals Jinpei Matsuda, Wataru Date, and Hiromitsu Morofushi.
Ran nudges Shinichi: “Let’s ask them about that house!”
Shinichi hesitates—until Rei Furuya (then still using his real name) joins the group.
What Ran and Shinichi Need Help With
Ran describes the local “Monster Mansion.”
The place is rumored to hold burning fish, black snakes, and eerie photographs that capture demon-like faces.
Shinichi shows a scrap of paper he found there:
「Yamamomo…
1 g ¥6,000」
Mountain bayberries for ¥6,000 per gram?
The cadets agree it reeks of foul play and insist on a guided tour.
File 1134 Spoiler ③ – Entering the Monster Mansion
Morofushi notes that the writing isn’t “Yamamomo” at all—it’s a coded message the whole squad quickly deciphers.
Inside the dilapidated estate they discover a pristine Ferrari, a suspicious koi pond, and other puzzling signs.
After a quick recon, the five cadets hash out a plan and radio Instructor Onizuka for backup.
Deep inside the mansion lurk three armed men—setting the stage for a direct confrontation.
To be continued in File 1135…
Detective Conan File 1134 “A Chance Meeting” – Review & Theories
The long-awaited follow-up to the post-credits scene from The Bride of Halloween
「yes, the one where Matsuda shouts, “Jinpei, phone the Waterworks Bureau!”」
is finally here. File 1134 shows what happened after that iconic moment.
File 1134 Review & Theory ① – Paying Off the Bride-of-Halloween Teaser
When Conan recalled Hagiwara in the film, we saw the Police Academy team (minus Furuya) in the background.
In that scene, Conan later asked Furuya about it and he deflected with a terse, “Nothing to tell.”
Thanks to a special Sunday magazine giveaway illustration that quietly added Furuya into the flashback, readers knew a payoff was coming.
File 1134 Review & Theory ② – Shinichi & Ran Actually Met Toru Amuro Seven Years Ago
The chapter confirms a brand-new timeline twist: seven years earlier, Shinichi and Ran had an in-depth conversation with a teenage Toru Amuro (then Rei Furuya).
That forgotten meeting sets the stage for Furuya to connect the dots
from schoolboy Shinichi Kudo to present-day Conan Edogawa in future chapters.
Keep an eye on how this revelation reshapes the trust between Amuro and Conan.
File 1134 Review & Theory ③ – Kogoro’s Coffee Bag & the Hidden Code
The plot kicks off when Kogoro puzzles over a drip-coffee pouch he got from Café Poirot.
The label reads “te-ro-chi-chi-mo-mo,” which makes no sense to him.
That cryptic phrase triggers Ran’s flashback, eventually linking to a note found inside the “Monster Mansion” that reads:
「Yamamomo…
1 g ¥6,000」
File 1134 hints that “te-ro-chi-chi-mo-mo” is another coded word—just as “Yamamomo” hides a secret meaning.
Exactly how the two codes interlock remains the key mystery driving the next installment.
