Invitation From Mylo Case

The Invitation from Mylo Case is Mylo's announcement for Ron's next challenge to prove his worth and existence.
It is the 22nd main case in the Ron Kamonohashi: Deranged Detective series.
==Overview==
Ron receives a special delivery, an invitation to a cruise. While there is no sender written on the envelope, Ron immediately realizes it is from Mylo as the letter bears his symbol. In his letter, Mylo details that he invites Ron to a cruise which will also be attended by the people connected to BLUE he has encountered recently. One of them is the M. Family spy who framed him in the Bloody Field Trip Case; Mylo wants to see whether Ron can identify that person among the attendees. If Ron were to decline the invitation, he would lose his only chance to learn the truth.
Ron and Toto speculate that this means either Fin, Shachi, Hirsch, or Elmer is the informant. Although this challenge is obviously a trap, Ron still accepts it.
Three days earlier, Winter woke up from his coma and immediately headed to Japan. Winter then leaves the unedited file for the Bloody Field Trip Case at Pot Coffee for Ron.
==History==
In the past, Winter and Alice once baked cookies together. Although Alice's were badly burned, Winter told her they were fine. She then happily took both batches of cookies outside to present them to Mylo. Upon seeing the cookies, Mylo threw all of Alice's burned ones to the ground and crushed them with his feet before eating one of Winter's cookies and telling his little sister that he does not need any failures. This caused Alice to have a coughing fit, and Winter comforted her.
In the present, Winter wakes up from his coma. A doctor is with him and he wants to inform Mylo about the situation immediately; at the same time, Winter recalls how he ended up in a coma in the first place: Mylo ordered for him to be shot off the Shibuya City View Tower after his failure in the Shibuya Revelation Serial Murders Case.
In another room at the M. Family headquarters, Dan asks Mylo if he remembers what he told Ron at the Auberge Reunion before he reiterates Mylo's words himself: He warned Ron that he would soon meet the M. Family's spy at BLUE who framed him in the Bloody Field Trip Case; this spy has now made contact with Ron. Dan also notes that this fixation Mylo has on Ron is unlike him. Mylo replies he is simply a rule he set for himself; and if Ron fails, he will simply join the others in death. He then lowers a hidden wall which covered in numerous photographs. Mylo explains that this is the M. Family's "secret altar" of all its failures and traitors who were disposed of. He adds that Ron deserves a place on this wall, but not without getting to see Mylo's view of the world first. Dan wonders what Mylo has planned; whatever it is, it will bring Ron hell.
Three days later in Japan, Toto visits Ron in his flat. He is telling him about his suspicions regarding Elmer when a special delivery arrives for Ron. It is a letter by an unknown sender; the envelope includes an invitation to a cruise. Reading this, Ron suspects the letter might have come from the M. Family: In the past, they have always sent Ron an invitation or a challenge to test him. Toto wonders why Ron received the letter now; after all, Mylo told Ron to look for the M. Family spy. Ron replies that it seems that assignment has already ended before he shows Toto the letter; judging from the symbol on its back, it is undeniably from Mylo himself.
In his letter, Mylo writes that he invites Ron to a cruise. It will also be attended by everyone connected to BLUE he met recently—and one of them is the M. Family informant. Thus, the invitation is also a ticket to a game to see whether Ron can find the informant or not. If Ron chooses not to accept the invitation, he will never get another chance to uncover what truly happened in the Bloody Field Trip Case.
Ron and Toto discuss the letter and theorize that the spy must be either Fin, Shachi, Hirsch, or Elmer then. Also, although they know that the cruise is a trap, Ron is determined to accept Mylo's invitation and challenge him to find out the truth—but not without preparing for it first. Ron wants to gather as much new information on the Bloody Field Trip Case as possible beforehand so that he will have a higher chance to identify the informant. As Emmerich is investigating the case too, he wants to see if she has found anything new first.
Toto and Ron head to Pot Coffee where Ron gets a call from Spitz who tells him that Emmerich has not discovered anything new yet. Shortly after the call ends, Ron notices Winter watching him and Toto from outside. Surprised to see him alive, Ron and Toto rush outside.
Three days earlier, after Winter woke up, he tied up the doctor to his bed and disguised himself as him. Pretending to be the doctor, he went to Dan and told him that Winter is awake and he should go and get Mylo; he himself would return to check on Winter. When Mylo left his room and followed Dan to see Winter, Winter sneaked into Mylo's room, stole Alice's last photograph, and escaped from the headquarters, heading to Japan. Mylo and Dan did not notice the rouse until after entering Winter's room and seeing that he is long gone.
In the present, Ron and Toto burst out of Pot Coffee. Outside, they do not find Winter but the unedited file for the Bloody Field Trip Case he left them behind. Winter watches them from around a corner and leaves after making sure they took the file; he gave it to Ron so that he could show him what he can do.
Later, Ron, Toto, and Spitz gather at the Maison du Kamonohashi to look over the file which includes the missing information on the third-party-blood discovered at the crime scene, various testimonies from people connected to BLUE, as well as statements from Fin, Shachi, Hirsch, and Elmer. Toto wonders if the file is genuine, and Ron insists that it is as Winter fights fair. Ron then starts telling Spitz and Toto about his new discoveries as he could piece together from the file's information what had happened in the three days leading up to the Bloody Field Trip incident.
