<spoiler>The "Bearded guy with sunglasses" was '''Hitoshi Yuda''' in a disguise, and '''Maya Tachibana''' was a hitwoman that he hired to kill Kogoro for "revealing" him as the killer of his wife. She lost her memories when she got involved in a traffic accident and hit her head; midway through the episode she recovered it, specially after Yuda kept trying to kill Kogoro himself; Maya then decided to pretend she was still amnesiac, both to set the deal with Yuda and then finish her mission of killing Kogoro.

 +
Maya's weapon was a wire garrote, which she used to strangle her victims. She managed to trap Kogoro and use the garrote to hang him in a makeshift gallow.
