People
Resolution
The culprits who killed Yonekura were
Takeru Kouchi and
Yoshito Mihara. Kouchi was killed by a bomb planted by
Isato Yonekura and that was created by
Katsuji Ishizawa, who originally planned to kill Suemura, Onda and Yonekura for bullying. Yonekura was the mastermind behind the bombings and planned to kill his four accomplices in the robbery from 10 years ago. The fifth member of the group, who was targeted by Yonekura, is in fact Ishizawa's brother
Koichi Ishizawa. Fortunately, Heiji and Kazuha manage to deactivate their respective bomb at nearly the same time.
Takeru Kouchi and Yoshito Mihara who killed Yonekura because the victim took credit of their work because the culprits came up with most of the victim recent plans and with him out of the way they can take the top spot.
The group committed a robbery and managed to steal 120 million yen in Kobe so Onda, Suemara and Yonekura would be able to pay off their debts.
Onda recently had a failed investment and was on the verge of bankruptcy which caused Yonekura to kill his accomplices because Onda was blackmailing him. Yonekura killed Onda and wanted him to be killed on an even day which Yonekuta was to have an alibi and Onda supposed to die on the day of the movie production announcement as Onda drove his red sport car on even dates while the blue one on odd dates but Onda died a day early which distressed Yonekura him to the point that he was not able to get out of the way of the falling Kaiju costume which crushed him to death.
The bomb in Yonekura’s car wasn't a bomb but a set of explosives that had not been made into a bomb which he planned to kill Katsuji with but Kouchi’s driving caused the explosives to explode making his death an accident.
Yonekura had the authority to make Suemura go to the warehouse where the bomb was that he planted. Yonekura tied up Katsuji and planned to kill him on his way to a business trip to make it seem like Katsuji was the culprit and make his death seemingly be accidental death by the bomber.
