Witness to murder

Main Article: The Adventure of the Great Departure

Sanmon Sonohigurashi was a Japanese antique dealer who owned an emporium on Street 2 Kado known as the Hall of Discard. One day, at the restaurant La Quantos, he met a soldier named Taizou Uzukumaru. Uzukumaru stole a Hōei era koban from him, intending to sell it due to the poor pay he received. When Sonihigurashi realized it had gone missing, he began looking around the nearby area for it, and when searching under the table, he heard a gunshot. As soon as he turned around and saw what he believed was Naruhodō shooting Watson, he fell to the floor.

Resultantly, Sonohigurashi served as a witness to the trial of the incident. Satoru Hosonaga ordered him and Uzukumaru not reveal the presence of Jezail Brett at the time due to the delicate relationship between their country and the Great British empire. The defendant, Ryūnosuke Naruhodō, not only exposed the theft of Sonohigurashi's koban but also revealed that Brett killed the man. Naturally, Sonohigurashi was furious at Taizou. During an argument after the trial, they sat on a bench where Naruhodō wanted to look for his missing armband. The two men hear about how Kazuma Asōgi first met Naruhodō and learn bad he is at tongue twisters. Afterwards, he served as a witness at Uzukumaru's trial regarding his stolen koban.
