"Mysteries" solved

Ending to the movie "Mystery" 1st Theory case

The first detective, Nakajou Junya, the assistant director theorized that the culprit used the window to enter the room where Kaitou was and then escape from the window after killing him. And to explain the fact there's no traces of anyone entered from the window, Nakajou believed Hongou when inspected the house in May, there were no summer grass and so she still think using the window was possible. However, his theory has a contradiction, the trick would risked him to be seen by the others from the culprit's perspective.

Ending to the movie "Mystery" 2nd Theory case

The second detective, Haba Tomohiro, the propsmaster theorized based on Hongou's request for a climbing rope, he believed the culprit is Kounosu who is a member of the Rock Climbing Club. And with that, She would climbed down from the second floor to the room where Kaitou was via window and she would climbed back up through the same route after killing him. However, since Haba haven't watched the video, his theory contradicts with the video since the window can't be opened that easily which makes it impossible to enter the room easily and kill Kaitou.

Ending to the movie "Mystery" 3rd Theory case

The third detective, Sawakiguchi Misaki, the publicity manager theorized that since she believed mystery movies are ones that have a blend of horror theme to it and the fact Hongou was looking for a seventh actor, she believed the culprit would be a seventh character which is a mysterious killer who would continuously killing the other characters until the remaining survivors would kill the killer at the climax and have a happy ending. But, her theory have a contradiction which is Hongou didn't asked for props that would indicate she would turn the story into a horror setting and since she asked Haba for a small amount of fake blood she didn't planned for a large scale of death in the story.
