The group took the keys and continued their journey. They followed the passage until they reached the end of the Shadow Corridor. At the end stood a massive stone door, its surface covered with mysterious carvings. Conan inserted the golden key into the lock, turned it, and the door slowly opened.
Behind the door was a space filled with light, in the center of which floated a crystal ball emitting a soft glow. Strange characters surrounded the crystal ball, constantly flashing and changing, as if telling ancient secrets.
"Is this the key to breaking the curse?" Ran Mouri asked.
Conan approached the crystal ball and carefully observed the shimmering words. After some effort, he finally deciphered the meaning: "With a pure heart, infuse the light of hope, dispel the dark curse, and the castle will return to peace."
"A pure heart, a light of hope, how do I do this?" Lin Yu asked.

So, Conan, Ran Mouri, Ai Haibara, Yoru, and Lin Yu held hands, circled the crystal ball, closed their eyes, and conveyed their inner hopes and beliefs. With their efforts, the crystal ball's light grew stronger and stronger, gradually illuminating the entire space.
Under the glow, the curse within the castle began to dissipate. Evelyn sensed the change in the curse and smiled with relief: "Thank you, you succeeded."

Conan also knew that future adventures awaited them, and they would continue their journey of upholding justice and uncovering the truth.
Back in the city, Conan and his friends' lives returned to normal. However, this peace didn't last long. One day, on his way to school, Conan saw a group of people gathered at the park entrance, talking animatedly. Curious, Conan went closer and discovered a strange notice posted at the park entrance that read: "A mysterious treasure has appeared. Those destined can participate in a treasure hunt competition on the island in the park's lake in three days to open the door to the treasure."
Conan's heart skipped a beat; there seemed to be a secret hidden behind this treasure hunt. He decided to gather his friends again to uncover the mystery together...
