‘’Kill?!’’ screeched everything.
‘’But, how was he killed while everyone was on set? In addition, we do not know who is the suspect,’’ Hakuba said.
Kane grinned while pointing at someone. ‘’Four people I pointed at just now, the culprit is among them. And, something related to the next scene that made Momoka-san return to the waiting room, I will tell you.’’
......................
Waiting Room
All gather and wait for Kane to uncover the truth about Haruka Momoka's suicide. The four people he pointed at complained.
‘’Wait Kane-sama. One of our colleagues has been killed, and you named the four of us as the perpetrators who eliminated it?’’ ask Akira.
‘’Obviously we were all on set, but why were the four of us the only suspects for Momoka-chan's death?’’
‘’This is not the time to play detective. One of our colleagues has gone.’’
‘’They are right, why are only the four of us accused of being suspects?’’
‘’Yora-san, Keita-san, and Ryusa-san take it easy. You are just a suspect, not the culprit,’’ Manager said.
‘’Do not kill Momoka-chan it is actually Manager,’’ Keita said.
‘’Hm, that's because he approached the woman's waiting room for too long,’’ Ryusa said.
‘’E-Eh? Not me,’’ said the Manager frustrated.
Kane raised his head and looked at the four men who did not accept the charges. ‘’At that time, the Manager came back after checking Momoka-san's situation. Not wanting to attract everyone's attention, the Manager whispered, and only Hakuba-san was aware of the situation. But, the four of you immediately ran away as if knowing something, in contrast to the people around Hakuba-san who remained in their positions.’’
‘’Ka-We ran because we felt anxious,’’ said Keita in self-defense.
‘’Anxious or want to ensure the death of Momoka-san?’’ ask Kane.
Yora screeches a sign of annoyance. ‘’Better stop your silly detective kids game!’’
‘’This is a closed space. A murder is unlikely to happen,’’ Ryusa said.
Kane's eyebrows raised with a smile. ‘’No matter what you say. That is certain ... Truth is only one. I'll explain soon the trick behind his murder.’’
‘’First, the perpetrator sends a letter to Momoka-san pushing the woman back into the waiting room with the excuse of forgetting something. However, someone followed him from behind and killed Momoka-san using a rope, strangling him until he was out of breath. Then, the perpetrator tied the rope to the beam and lifted the corpse. The length of this rope is an important key to the tricks needed to turn this into a closed space,’’ Kane said.
‘’Long rope?’’ ask Akira.
Kane nodded. ‘’This swing. Despite being outside this room, by using Momoka-san's body as a swing, she could install the key from inside.’’
‘’But, how does Momoka-san's body act as a swing?’’ ask Officer Reiki.
‘’Tabi(Sock),’’ Kane replied.
‘’Means Kane-sama, the tabi that the victim wore?’’ ask Inspector.
‘’True. The perpetrator removed the middle rope on the tabi Momoka-san was wearing. Then, insert the long iron that is the door lock on the side of his foot. He then pulled the corpse out through the open door. When the perpetrator let go of the handle, Momoka-san's corpse would swing inside as the perpetrator closed both doors. Momoka-san's heel will come back and hit the door due to the swing reaction. That's how to make a closed space,’’ Kane said.
Kane looked at the four men on the side. ‘’Something Momoka-san meant about the next scene might be her washi paper.’’
‘’Washi paper? In that case, what does this have to do with the scene to be recorded?’’ ask Hakuba.
Kaji saw the script of the scene referred to by Kane. ‘’After the four men killed the female lead, they will receive a confession letter on the washi paper using the names of the four men to expose their crimes, written by the female lead. The four men were intent on finding the sender, and that was when they were killed one by one. In other words, Momoka-san did the same.’’
‘’But, why is Momoka-san acting so strangely by doing such a ridiculous thing in the real world? What did he write on that washi paper until he was killed?’’ ask Inspector.
‘’Eh? Wait, don't-don't...’’
Kane smiled as Kaji realized the meaning of his words. ‘’True, Momoka-san was killed because the woman wrote a confession regarding the crimes of these four men who will be handed over to the police after this filming is completed.’’
‘’What does Kane-sama mean to say like that? What crime did we commit to Momoka-san?’’ ask Keita.
‘’The four of you have desecrated it just like the plot of the story in the film you brought,’’ replied Kaji.
Everyone gasped at Kaji's words, while staring at the four men in question.
‘’Heh, what nonsense is this? Why should we stain him? It was a despicable deed,’’ Akira said.
‘’If we did, where is the proof?’’ ask Keita.
Yora smiled lightly. ‘’You didn't find the evidence, did you? That's because we didn't commit a crime.’’
‘’So this is the famous Devil of Deduction? You have tarnished the good name of the Kamiya family and the Tokyo police,’’ Akira said.
‘’What's up? Where was Kane-sama's confidence just now?’’ ask Ryusa.
‘’Truly sickening! We will go, and visit Momoka-chan's house,’’ Keita said.
Everyone could not believe seeing the four men leave. They looked at Kane expectantly.
‘’Do you guys know? Washi paper is made from a special material that is from the mulberry group, and contains dangerous toxins,’’ Kane said made the four men stopped.
Kane looked at the backs of the four men. ‘’Even if someone accidentally licks it just a little, then...’’.
At that time, the four people immediately held their stomachs while trying to vomit.
The Reiki officer who noticed it immediately glared. ‘’Do not-do you guys...’’
‘’Am-Ammonth! Call an ambulance! Hurry along! We swallowed that washi paper!’’ yell at those four guys.
‘’So, do you admit it? You guys have desecrated Haruka Momoka and killed that woman to silence her?’’ ask Inspector.
‘’We admit it, but what killed Momoka-san was in—‘’
‘’Akira-san,’’ says Kane cut off Keita's speech.
Akira flinched and clenched his hands.
‘’Quick call ambulance!’’ yora Exclamation.
‘’If not, we can die!’’ Ryusa.
‘’Ten easy. Using mulberries to make washi paper is common, and not at all toxic,’’ Kane said.
The four people fell silent and looked at Kane. They realized that the boy had trapped him.
‘’Ahaha, we just follow Kane-sama's groove, and play with le—‘’
Dor's!
Akira's words came to a halt just as Kane fired a bullet.
All gasped in shock because the cheek of Akira scratched because the side of the bullet had hit him.
‘’I will make an exception for Kohide-san because she is a woman as well as a mother who commits crimes for the sake of her child, despite the wrong way. But, I will not be disinclined to men like you,’’ Kane said.
The boy squinted his eyes. ‘’When you accidentally find Momoka-san's confession paper, you send a letter if someone finds the washi paper, making the woman rush to the waiting room. You discuss and then tell them to make a noise. You used the opportunity to escape through the backstage without anyone noticing. After killing Momoka-san, you removed the evidence by swallowing the paper with them.’’
‘’How do you know that I'm the killer?’’ ask Akira.
Kane was silent for a moment. ‘’When Momoka-san left while the four of you were discussing, only you turned to the woman.’’
Akira. ‘’Padahat only unimportant movement, heh.’’
The inspector handcuffed the four men and took them to the police station.
Kein approached his sister and saw Kane grinning. ‘’Looks like you're having a lot of fun.’’
‘’Of course. But this is weird. I've never successively solved a case in a day. First, the murder victim was a composer. Then now the victim is an actress.’’
The deg!
Kein gasped after hearing his sister's words.
‘’Entah who else is next,’’ says Kane.
‘’Have broken the sentence Both word of Coach?’’ ask Kein.
Kane turned his head and frowned looking at the look on his brother's face. ‘’No chance because focus handles pem—‘’ case
‘’I've solved it, and know who the next victim is,’’ said Kein cut off his sister's greeting.
‘’Hee uso(lie),’’ face Kane in disbelief.
