Black sugar syrup and soy milk frappe—that’s what our genius detective Ron Kamonohashi is sipping on as Episode 19 of Ron Kamonohashi’s Forbidden Deductions kicks off, just as Toto rushes in with thrilling news about possibly scoring two tickets to an exciting concert by a super popular artist.
But here’s hoping you didn’t forget to watch the post-credit scene in Episode 18, because it introduces “Hummingbird – the talent kidnapper,” an odd criminal who targets high-profile talents. Because sure enough, he strikes again in this episode.
What usually serves as the biggest twist in mysteries is already out—we know what Hummingbird looks like, as his face was revealed in the post-credit scene! Of course, some viewers might not remember and may want to revisit it, but there’s no need, as he’s easy to recognize once he reappears. In fact, Ron brings up the Hummingbird kidnapper case to Toto as they arrive at the concert, and, as luck would have it, the criminal decides to strike at the very same show they’re attending.
Toto is so thrilled to attend a concert with Ron that it definitely feels like a date, especially since there’s no clumsy Dr. Mofu third-wheeling with them, unlike the beach murder edition. But as always, a new case falls into their lap, and the two are once again surrounded by a swarm of cops, facing a fresh and eccentric criminal. The artist, a genius composer named Nyonyon, receives a threatening letter from Hummingbird.
Even though Ron quickly figures out who the culprit is in this episode, there’s more intrigue surrounding the suspect’s modus operandi than his identity. But we’ll only get to know about it in the next edition!
