Resolution

Indeed, it wasn't an accident but a skillfully planned murder by Tomoko Komori. It is revealed she used a trick to make Kajiki think the phone was floating so he'd try to grab it and lose his balance. Kajiki would then hold himself on the railing which she had rotted beforehand so he would fall. She also made him drunk to diminish his capacity to have balance and also dug out one of his contact lenses making him more unbalanced. She had also used the Detective Boys so she could lure out Kajiki whom she knew liked children. The police concluded that she also murdered all her previous husbands and disguised those as accidents, making her a serial killer. She then shows her true evil nature, but is ultimately taken by Megure and Takagi. The Detective Boys look at her sadly.

Man #1
	Deceased Tomoko's first husband

Man #2
