Shunen was always suspicious of Tenei, so he entered the monastery to see what had happened to his older brother. After gaining Tenei's trust, Shunen confronted him; under the effects of alcohol, Tenei told him everything. The young novice begged him to turn himself in, but Tenei refused and said he'd rather let everyone think the Mist Goblin took Chunen's life; Shunen lost it and uses his newfound knowledge to kill Tenei in the same way Chunen died.

Shunen was always suspicious of Tenei, so he entered the monastery to gain his trust and learn what had happened to his older brother. Shunen confronted him right after the Mouris and Conan had gone to bed; under the effects of alcohol, Tenei told him everything. The young novice begged his superior to turn himself in, but Tenei refused and said he'd rather let everyone think the Mist Goblin took Chunen's life. Shunen lost it and used his newfound knowledge to kill Tenei in the same way Chunen died: grabbing a rope, wrapping it around Tenei's neck, and pulling it as if he was carrying a heavy bag on his back (the "bag being, of course, Tenei).
