Resolution

This case is a murder. The culprit is Nao Takiguchi. It turns out Nao tricked her husband into believing he could swim by putting a floating agent into their pool, allowing him to float easily. Nao used bath salt at first, which is why Koro's collar was strangely rusted. But the president noticed the change in water density once Nao increased the amount of bath salt in the pool. Jumping into the ocean, he realized that he couldn't keep himself afloat properly and drowned as a result. The motive was that the president would stop at nothing to grow his company, and was cruel.
