* ShaggyDogStory: Two of Mayu's father's bio-research assistants became DeceptiveDisciple and committed the murder after he stated his intention of donating the bio-research finding on the internet due to their {{Greed}}, as they wanted to make money off said finding instead. The two assistants' "recruitment process" in getting the other, who had witnessed the murder at an inopportune moment, to cooperate with them was by reminding the latter of the potential payout via patenting and selling said bio-research finding, after they had already filched a memory card containing information regarding said finding. The three proceeded to open the chip the next day, hoping to find more detailed information... only to be greeted with security measures they couldn't unlock or bypass, so the whole murder plot ended up AllForNothing after all -- except to get themselves targeted two years later.

** In the present day, the "recruited" person burns the suspension bridge and causes the village to become a ClosedCircle, in the hope of buying enough time to find the bio-research data. Not only does the person end up unable to find the desired item, the bridge-burning also serves as an UnwittingInstigatorOfDoom as well due to the culprit, upon witnessing the burned bridge alongside everyone else, becoming incentivized to carry out the murder plot, with the bridge-burner nearly falling victim to murder, too -- the only reason the intended target survives is due to Kindaichi, having realized what the killer's murder tactic is and who's being targeted, pulling a PoisonedChaliceSwitcheroo on the culprit right before SummationGathering is to take place.



* TooYoungToDieLamentation: Early in the case arc, Kindaichi's mother is about to kill her son with a sharp cutting knife after telling him the family financial circumstances have gotten worse right as he's HeldBackInSchool. Kindaichi [[CatapultNightmare screams "I'm too young to die!"... before waking up]] with OverlyNervousFlopSweat, shaking all over in his body, and realizing that his dying moment was AllJustADream.

Added DiffLines:

* UnwittingInstigatorOfDoom: Kindaichi reveals during SummationGathering that the last intended murder victim, by burning the suspension bridge with the intention of seeking out the bio-research data, makes the village where they stay a ClosedCircle, which, in turn, prompts the culprit to put the murder plot into motion.
-->'''Kindaichi''': ''[to the last intended murder target]'' What you did... ended up encouraging the culprit!
