Meitantei Conan › Season 1

Chapter 24 — The Mysterious Woman with Amnesia Case

Kogoro reads the newspaper and discovers that Yuda Hitoshi, a criminal he convicted, has escaped from prison. The next day at the horse track, a woman falls into Kogoro's arms, prompting him to take her to get help. Tachibana Maya, the woman, is diagnosed with amnesia. When she is released from the hospital, a bearded man driving a car attempts to hit Maya, followed by debris nearly falling on top of her. Conan suspects that someone is trying to murder her and notes Maya's strange behavior after each incident. Conan then realizes that the bearded man is Yuda Hitoshi donning a disguise. Hitoshi and Maya are revealed to be working together. He hired Maya, who is actually a professional assassin, and her mission is to kill Kogoro. Earlier before Maya could do so, she was involved in a car accident which explains her memory loss. Maya was never a target and Hitoshi tried to kill Kogoro himself, but his failed attempts helped Maya regain her memory. Maya leads Kogoro to an abandoned warehouse and she attempts to hang him with a wire but Conan manages to stop her. Hitoshi is, again, arrested by the police, along with Maya. (Source: Wikipedia)
