Attention! Two detectives have solved the case:

kfnnapa: through PM, solved it first, and perfectly.

Akakata: Through the forum, got so close that she will recieve 2nd place. Any detective who can solve it now without help from these two will recieve a reputation point. A new case will be up soon. :)

Bothdetectives will choose a topic for one of my stories, and anyone who can Case File:

Himeda Junpei was found dead in his home this afternoon. (4:07 eastern time) The time of death was said to be at 3:35 pm. The murder weapon wasn't found, but police deduced that he had been killed with a blunt object, with which he was struck once on the back of the head. The lock on the front door had been removed, but for some reason there was damage on both sides, as though the killer had finished removing the lock after the man had died. The case was deemed a home invasion, as the victim's cell phone and wallet had been removed from his shirt pocket, and his wife reported two bronze statuettes worth approximately 120,000 yen missing from the living room. However, in the victim's back pants pocket the police found 20, 000 yen in cash and a receipt from an ATM at 3:18 pm that day. Also, a teenage detective has just arrived who suspects that this was an inside job.

Your suspects are:

- The victim's wife, Himeda Midori.

Motive: She suspected her husband of infidelity. In his will, he left her 300,000,000 yen.

Alibi: from 2:15 to 3:55 she was at a movie with her friend, Tsuna Midori. She reportedly left her seat only once, for 5 minutes during the film. She also went after the movie had ended, but only for 3 minutes. It would take at least half an hour for her to drive home, kill her husband, and return to the theater.

- The victim's brother, Himeda Kazono.

Motive: He owed his brother 100,000 yen, and had 23,000,000 in other debts. The victim bequeathed unto him in his last will and testament 60,000,000 yen.

Alibi: He was playing online chess from 2:16 to 4:11. The time limit set between moves was 3 minutes, giving him only 6 minutes at a time. He lives 22 minutes away from the victim.

- The victim's friend, Chudou Katsuna.

Motive: He was dumped by Mimiko when she met Himeda-san. Also, were he to die, Himeda Junpei left in his will a sum of 4,000,000 yen.

Alibi: He and his new girlfriend, Tsuna Mimiko, were on a date at the Yomiuri Land theme park all day. (From 10:30 until they were notified of his friend's murder) If he had killed Himeda, he wouldn't have been able to return to the park before being notified. Police verified that he never left and re-entered the park.

- The victim's sister-in-law, Toshira Kiiro.

Motive: She didn't approve of her twin sister's marraige to Junpei, and she disliked him. Nothing was left to her in his will.

Alibi: She was alone in her house sleeping from noon to when she recieved the call. She lives alone, but 45-50 minutes away from her sister's home.

Clues and Facts:

- The victim's wife discovered thebody at 4:07 upon her return from the movie theater. Her friend, who had driven her home, called the police after hearing the wife's scream and seeing the body.

- The victim's sister-in-law's makeup was poorly done as she had rushed to reach her sister, but there was an odd tint beneath it like she had fallen asleep wearing other makeup, even though she hadn't left the house or seen anyone today.

- The victim's friend was surprised at the large amount of money left to him in the will.

- The victim's brother cried. He had in his possession the 100,000 yen he owed his brother. (It didn't have Junpei's fingerprints on it)

- The victim's wife didn't know why there was cash in her husband's back pocket, and no one knew why the thief/murderer hadn't taken it.

- Also discovered to be missing were the wife's pearl earrings, which she kept in the master bedroom, along with a large purse she had bought only the day before.

... Now it's up to the detectives of DCW to crack the case! Note: The first member to solve the murder with both the criminal and method correct will choose any subject for my next story.

Oh yeah. I forgot the other hint. There is the possibility of an accomplice, and I have mentioned every character. (Didn't leave out people to make it hard)

Also, there is a reason why the murderer took Midori-san's earrings and her purse.

Those were some very random theories. Sorry. I'm also rushing. There's quite a few loopholes, but I'll read through it again later.

victims wife

because the movie was from 2:15 to 3:55, she left for 3 minutes=3:58

however, she arrived home at 4:07.

it takes 30 minutes to get from the movie theater to her house, so her alibi is false

Sorry, I should have been more clear. It takes 30 minutes to go home, commit the murder, and get back. They left the theater at 3:55. Sorry.... :(

I'm leaning towards the sister-in-law and the wife... is it possible that they could pass for each other with the help of a little makeup?

Does that part sound right?

Dangit! I was so close with the explanation, but only one truth prevails JFBQ00163070213B.gif It was pretty good for my first DCW deduction though.

before i tell the murderer i will tell how the murderer killed the victim first he/she went to the victims house then the murderer killed himeda junpei by stabbing him with a weapon and it is probably an ice pick and the murderer took the wife's pearl necklace and pouch to make it look like the suspect is the wife instead of looking it like a suicide so the murderer is the sister-in-law toshira kiro she said that she didn't left the house but there are no witnesses and it is awkward  that she slept until 4:07 and probably she killed jupei also because of jealousy that no money will be given to her when junpei died so she took the 100000 yen and left the 20000 yen the evidence is the black tint it is caused by the tears in her eyes so the make up  leave a black tint and goes to sleep and probably she knew that the police will call her so she put another make up but suddenly she took the different one she is so nerd 

THERE IS ONLY ONE TRUTH

AM I RIGHT?  -_-
