During the investigation, he notices that the Kazuha at the scene is in fact none other than his wife in disguise and tells the group that "one person" (his wife in disguise) should not be at the crime scene. After securing the culprit at Naniwa Harukas, he confronts his wife and takes off her disguise, asking her what she is up to, to which she replies that she betted with Kazuha that she could pass off as a teenager if she wore a face-mask.
