Line 494:
* [[Red String of Fate]]: ''The Time-Bombed Skyscraper'' - confronted with a [[Wire Dilemma]], Ran can't bring herself to cut the red one because of the association with the String of Fate (which is a good thing, because earlier the bomber had overheard her talking about how red was her favorite color and rigged it to go off on the red wire).
* [[Retirony]]: A high diver in "The Last Dive" / "Sports Club Murder Case".
* [[Revealing Coverup]]: In one episode, a criminal attempts to acquire a demo tape that implicates him in a murder. It's especially note worthy that before the criminal's attempts to acquire the tape Conan thought nothing special was on it. (He had listened to it previously in hopes of finding out why the artist was being stalked).
* [[Revenge by Proxy]]: In the ''June Bride'' case, a suspect poisons his new bride to get revenge on her policeman father, who'd neglected to notice that the perp he'd been chasing had run over the suspect's mother (and she then bleeds to death later). Subverted in that {{spoiler|the bride found out that the suspect was the Childhood Friend she had a crush on, guessed that he'd attempt something like this, ''and'' willingly drank the poison to show that she had suffered a lot after their separation. And apparently, once he was released from jail, he got her forgiveness and properly got married.}}
** Another in the London case, in which [[Mad Bomber|Hades]] {{spoiler|goes on a [[Roaring Rampage of Revenge]] against champion tennis player Minerva Glass for losing a match on which he bet all the money need to pay for his mother's life-saving operation. All the money was lost and [[It's Personal|Hades' mother died]]. In turn, Hades plants a bomb in a gift lent to Minerva's mother during the Wimbledon Championship that will be triggered at the end of the game so that Minerva will lose her mother in return for Hades losing his}}.
