Resolution

  Show spoilers »

The culprit is Rumi Shimizu. She killed him, bashing his head with the trunk the group was carrying, tampering with the ladder Kawasaki was using to take the head on picture of the train to create an accident that would disguise her bludgeoning murder. She and Masao Horii were engaged and promised to marry each other. However, Horii backstabbed her saying he was going to continue his university studies in Germany, where his parents have already proposed an arranged marriage for him.

Trivia

• Kenji Wakai looks exactly like Inspector Gadget.
