The killer is Seto Ryuuichi. He had discovered that Masuko was falsifying several of Kikuemon's prized pottery pieces and selling them for huge prizes, making them pass as the real deal.

When Masuko got drunk, Ryuuichi took the sleeping woman to the storage room, placing her inside a drawer and putting a hanging noose around her neck. After this he put Masuko's cellphone next to her, since she used it as an alarm clock; when the still drunk Masuko woke up with the cellphone alarm and tried to "get off bed", she ended up hanging herself instead. The blood came from a wound caused by a metal nail sticking out of the drawer.
