The culprit is the fourth brother Jirou Kurokawa. There was no way an outsider could have gone on the island when the ferry was not in use and when the harbour was the only possible way of berthing. Thus, it all made sense when the culprit was Jirou, who was unsuspected and could freely move around. The proof is the mist that disappeared on the window in Jirou's room, which proves he left his room to shoot Ichirou. His motive was that he was always bullied by his brothers and that he was the illegitimate son and that Naruse was just a scapegoat to him.

Murder

Conan and the Detective Boys corner Wataru as Takumi's killer. He sat far away from his partner on purpose, so he could pull on a string he attached to the suitcase above Takumi when the train will make a sharp stop. The suitcase would then fall and break Takumi's neck and he would not be suspected since he is too far away. The proof is the marks on the suitcase handles and all the fishing line he has stuck inside his guitar. After the Detective Boys solve the case, they want to appear on the television as the case-solvers, but when the detective asks for their names, Conan, who fears Ran and Kogoro will see him on the television, runs away with the others back inside the train.
