THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE.
----------------------------------------
I thought I was wrong in my suspicion that Touno-senpai is the culprit but when Kindaichi pointed out that the dead body is not wearing Touno-senpai's watch it became instantly clear that that dead body is not Touno-senpai. Its probably a random guy Touno killed. Since all the victims have torned up faces they wont know if that dead body really is Touno-senpai.

If the killer was after the membership card, then they should just publicly announce for the entire group that the raffle is cancelled because of the circumstances.
And the more people die, the higher the chances for winning are, but the chances for exposing the culprit increase aswell, since he would be under the remaining participants. (If this really was his motive.)

Oh, and now that I think about it, remember the radio news in the last episode? When the announcer was about to say where the killer is headed, that guy in the white pullover and green shirt quickly turned down the volume.
Was that Touno Eiji? Mmh, he still died though. (Btw. that school has a horrible record for students that get murdered. I wouldn't apply there...)

But if the lake is that large, how did the killer get around it so fast? Or is there a second boat?

And what were the sins the doctor was talking about? Did I miss something or did they never mention anything about it?

Yea I also think it was Touno that killed some random person to fake his death. It was established that Jason tends to mess up his victim's faces with an axe so they wouldn't really be able to tell that it was another person, especially if he put his clothes on the body.

I was suspecting the painter at the beginning but after the body of the senpai being reversed and not wearing the watch, I guess they are pretty much hinting towards him being the killer. Well, next episode we will know

I really like the way Hajime handled this case; very different from Detective Conan. The last and this episode were absolutely awesome, actually enjoyed them unlike the first 3 episodes.

I agree that its Touno its his father company and the same company in the cruise so mostly its related to the company.

Radio was telling that the Jason was found so The painter understood that it someone from inside and mostly he started to draw death people after the incident in the cruise ship.
