Hitomi is the culprit.

Shinichi says that the possible culprit is Hitomi. Hitomi then tells Shinichi that the knife was in Aiko's bag and blamed Aiko for killing Kishida. Shinichi then tells Hitomi that it is impossible to cut someone's head off with a knife evenly with a women strength and evenly if Aiko have killed Kishida, Aiko would have then had many chances to toss the weapon and doesn't need to cover it with a cloth and hide it in her bag. Shinichi then asks Aiko if she had placed the knife in her bag beforehand, but Hitomi denies that she did that. Hitomi then tells Shinichi that she sat two seats ahead Kishida and Aiko which she asks how it is actually possible for her to cut Kishida's head off. Hitomi then backfires the line that Shinichi has told her that a with a women strength, it is impossible to cut someone's head off. Shinichi agreed to what he has said but said that with the speed of the roller coaster and a steel hoop made from piano wire it can be done. Shinichi then asks Inspector Megure for his assistance.

Shinichi explanation about the case.

Shinichi explains like this: Shinichi is the culprit and Inspector Megure is the murder victim. Shinichi says that Hitomi have lowered the safety guard with an object like her bag on her back. Shinichi then shows that he escaped easily from the safety guard which Hitomi prepared beforehand the hoop with the hook which Shinichi puts his legs in the guards and stretches his body forward to the inspector. Then toss the hook to the rail and with the power and speed of the roller coaster his head comes right off. Hitomi then asks Shinichi if he has proof, which Shinichi asks her were her pearled necklace has been going before the ride. Shinichi tells her that she must have replaced the necklace string for the piano wire and has the hook hidden in her bag. Because of Hitomi being a gymnast unlike the other woman with her finely trained sense of balance it is only possible that Hitomi could do that.

The final evidence.

Reiko then points to the man in black saying that they also possibly could do that. Shinichi agrees with her that the two man are looking suspicious but they have nothing to do with it according to him. Shinichi then says that before the culprit had done the murder, she shed a tear before she did it. Shinichi also noticed that once they left the tunnel and realized they were death, it took two or three seconds until they arrived at the station, which in other words, no one riding the roller coaster other than the killer would have been able to shed such a long tears. Reiko the asks Shinichi if he has proof. Shinichi then says that Hitomi's tears are unshakable proof, because only on a roller coaster, tears would flow sideways.

Reason[]

The reason for Hitomi for killing Kishida is because Kishida dumped her. Long time ago she used to date him before Hitomi met Aiko and Reiko in college. Kishida dumped her only to be in a relationship with Aiko.
