“It’s unfortunate I turned out like this. A detective who gets emotional while solving cases is the worst.”
Ron Kamonohashi is getting serious about addressing his peculiar condition of instructing murderers to kill themselves whenever he solves a case. Episode 22 of Ron Kamonohashi’s Forbidden Deductions opens with Ron heading to a crime scene after taking a new batch of medication to manage his strange affliction.
If you recall, Ron had started this medication in earlier episodes to ease his condition. Episode 21 concluded with Ron and Toto narrowing down three research students as potential suspects in the psychological research lab murder at Tokyo University. Himeno, a hardworking and dedicated researcher, died in a lab explosion, and Ron, naturally, is convinced it was no accident. Toto then explains his hypothesis, finally revealing the primary suspect.
This episode is divided into two distinct halves. The first half is tense and fast-paced, with new twists bringing the lab case to a dramatic conclusion as a particularly twisted murderer is exposed. The second half shifts gears entirely: Ron receives a mysterious letter inviting him to a meal at an intriguing location. As always, Toto tags along, and a new adventure begins.
This new storyline is reminiscent of the observatory murder case from season one of Ron Kamonohashi’s Forbidden Deductions, as our protagonists head to a stunning yet slightly remote location filled with an ensemble of new characters. What happens next remains a mystery, as all the intrigue is saved for the next episode!
