People
Resolution
The killer was Takashi Ichieda. Two years ago Mrs. Yone's granddaughter, Yaeko, died by drowning when she went searching for Reika and Nikaidou, who were stranded in a small isle in the sea. It turned out they took her swimming supplies and left her to die; Ichieda noticed the odd situation when Yaeko's body was found and asked them about it, but they denied everything and said they had not even seen Yaeko.
Ichieda, who actually was in love with Yaeko, kept his bad feelings to himself until Reika's 24th birthday. After isolating the group in the mansion, he first kidnapped Reika and kept her hostage in one of the bathrooms, bound and gagged inside a covered bath tub, getting everything ready so she would slowly drown. Then he confronted Nikaidou, and when he admitted his share of guilt, Ichieda drowned him outside with his own hands and left his lifeless body there. The attack on Ran wasn't intended to be fatal; he only needed a witness to throw suspicions off himself, making everyone believe that the assassin was an outside. Few later, a still kidnapped Reika drowned in the tub, and Ichieda pulled her lifeless body and left it next to said tub for everyone to find.
