Harumi Kiryu (桐生 春美 (きりゅう はるみ) Kiryuu Harumi) is a high school student. She is the second victim, and she leaves meaningful words to Hajime and Miyuki, "This murder was the work of someone who was possessed by Fuyuko Tsukishima's illusion," but she was found hanged the next day.
Appearance[]
She usually wears her glasses and her hair is tied to the left and right, and her harsh behavior stands out, but when she goes on stage, she transforms into a beautiful girl who perfectly fits into the role.
Personality[]
When Orie Hidaka was killed and she returned to her room with everyone, she made a meaningful remark, "It's like Tsukishima's ghost is taking revenge on us."
Although she didn't show the same fear as Hidaka and Saotome, It's unclear if Kiryu, deep down in her heart, was also afraid of Tsukishima's guilt.
In the anime version, dialogue is added to the exchange with Kindaichi on the eve of being killed, so that the viewers can see the depth of her jealousy towards Fuyuko Tsukishima.
Relationships[]
