The 1130th chapter of the Detective Conan manga is titled “Bright Yellow First Act.”This title hints at the commencement of a mystery, signifying the initiation of the probe into Narasawa Miku’s death. Viz Manga also published the chapter in English on the day of its release, titling it “The Ochre Opening.”
What Happened In The Ochre Opening
Upon coming across the unsettling inscription, Miku’s fellow cast members are taken aback and filled with shock. Yoka, portraying the character of Momiji, faints and is caught by Tenma (who plays Heiji), as Ayari (portraying Mori Rieko) watches from a distance with a mysterious expression.
Potential Suspects
In relation to Miku’s death, five individuals have been identified as possible suspects: Yoka (portraying Momiji), Tenma (portraying Heiji and in a romantic relationship with Miku), Ayari (portraying Mori Rieko and having a complex connection with Miku and Yoka), Nobuya (portraying Iori’s housekeeper and harboring feelings for Miku), and Toshikata (portraying Kogoro and shrouded in mystery).
Conan and his companions are joined by the police in Otaki’s house, where the troupe is currently residing. The 5 suspects were all questioned, uncovering numerous issues with the victim. Initially, Tenma’s ambiguous sentiments towards the victim appear to be a potential red herring, adding an element of suspense to the ongoing investigation.
Prior to the events, it was clear that the victim and Yoka harbored a deep resentment towards each other, suggesting a potential motive. This animosity stemmed from their mutual affection for Tenma, causing them to constantly clash and compete for his attention. Interestingly, this mirrors the relationship between their respective roles as Momiji and Kazuha, adding a comical element to the narrative.
After that, Ayari was introduced. She had a knack for instigating conflicts between the victim, Tenma, and Yoka, and also creating tension among their fellow troupe members. Ayari also kept the inspector entertained with various anecdotes about the troupe, and even revealed the reason behind her decision to wear her hair in a ponytail that day instead of her usual bun. However, she also dropped a bombshell – another co-star, Nobuya, had been pursuing the victim. When questioned, Nobuya denied the accusations and stated that the victim had rejected his advances.
Finally, during Toshikata’s interrogation, there was an unexpected development. He decided to be questioned in a restroom stall, for reasons that remain unclear. Once the interrogation concluded, the suspects were granted a temporary release to go their separate ways.
Another Broken Puppet
In a state of urgency, Otaki directed Yoka to gather everyone in 30 minutes. Yoka quickly gathered Heiji and Conan, and they rushed to Tenma’s room, only to discover that he was asleep. They spoke with the annoyed Tenma, who was still under the covers. As they left the room and closed the door, they suddenly heard a peculiar sound coming from the balcony. Yoka, Heiji, and Conan promptly returned to the room, where Tenma had also been awoken from his nap.
As the group stepped out onto the balcony, they discovered Ayari’s lifeless body on the street below. The air was filled with shock and sorrow as they gazed upon their fallen friend. Ayari’s body lay motionless on the pavement, resembling a broken puppet, much like Miku’s tragic fate.
What to Expect from the Next Chapter
With Ayari’s passing, the suspects have been narrowed down to the remaining four individuals. The two most likely culprits are believed to be Tenma and Toshikata. Tenma’s irritation at being questioned while he was supposedly sleeping, coupled with Ayari’s sudden death after being left alone with him, creates a questionable scenario.
In addition, Toshikata’s decision to not participate in an in-person interrogation suggests that he may not have been present at all and could have been communicating through a speaker phone. This adds further intricacy to the plot.
As we eagerly anticipate the next chapter, it is important to remain patient as it will surely provide us with more insight towards the truth.
