Resolution
After tranquilizing Kogorou, he reveals the culprit to be Yuusuke Nakamura. First, he was only who helped packed away the instruments had the opportunity to put her body into the bass drum case. Unfortunately, what Ran saw wasn't Yukiko's body, it was only a mannequin from the sports shop on the 8th floor. As they can see, the left hand has been removed. What Ran saw in the room was actually the left hand of the mannequin. Then he ask Yuusuke to play his guitar. Kogorou then said when he entered the green room he was carrying the guitar. The mannequin's hand was placed inside the guitar. After he hid Yukiko's body in the drum case he took off the left hand of the mannequin put Yukiko's glove on it and placed it inside his guitar it's likely he used some tape to keep it in place. He even tried to lower Kogorou's suspicions by asking him to sign it. Then, after asking Ran to wait in the corridor, he went inside took the mannequin hand from inside the guitar and made the shape of a body with cushions and a blanket before placing the hand underneath that ensured Ran would believe Yukiko was lying there all along. After he had Ran come to fetch Kogorou. He took the opportunity to carry the drum case that contained her body inside the room next he put the glove back on her hand and placed her under the blanket. He stuck the mannequin's back into his guitar. But he didn't have time to re-tune it.
Yuusuke confesses that the band is his life and he thought them felt the same. Then, after Yukiko talking to Yuuki, Yuusuke witnessed it and say "You and Shouta were rumored to have been recruited into that new band." "So, it was true, wasn't it?" She then said "Yeah, that's right, is that problem?" He then said "You, when you were in your previous band, you tried to sell yourself to the recording company but ended up being kicked out." "Isn't it thanks to us that you could still continue your singing career?" She then said pathetically "Don't make me laugh, you should be thanking me for joining so that your band could continue at all, if it weren't for me." "A band this shabby would have already fallen apart!" He then said "How dare you" She then said "You've served as my stepping stone to my major debut that's reason enough to thank me" and laugh haughtily and strangled her. Everyone, he thought you all felt the same as he did. He really thought because of the pathetic Yukiko.
