Meitantei no Mama de Ite episode 7 ends with shocking stabbing cliffhanger

The Japanese mystery drama ‘Meitantei no Mama de Ite’, starring Ai Yoshikawa and Eiji Okuda, has left viewers shocked following the dramatic conclusion of its seventh episode. The series follows a primary school teacher who presents mysteries to her grandfather, who suffers from Lewy body dementia.

In the latest episode, a party for a mystery novelist turns into a crime scene when the author is found bleeding. The episode concludes with a high-tension cliffhanger: as the protagonist, Kaede, is walking with her colleague Iwata, she is suddenly attacked by a figure in black. In a surprising turn of events, Shiki (played by Keiei Tsuna), who had been missing from the narrative, intervenes to protect her and is stabbed in the process.

As he collapsed, Shiki reportedly uttered the cryptic phrase, ‘It is according to my scenario,’ leaving the audience to speculate on his true motives and whether the attack was premeditated. The unexpected development has caused significant discussion among viewers on social media ahead of the series finale.
