Tomoko tearfully said that she suspected Dr. Tanaka of being the killer, and she was right. Tanaka killed poor Mitsuko since she was his girlfriend at the time, but he had been offered a very good arranged marriage to his boss's beautiful daughter. Thinking that Mitsuko's presence would ruin an alliance that would further his career, he decided to get her out of the way definitely. | Tomoko tearfully said that she suspected Dr. Tanaka of being the killer, and she was right.
