The Kindaichi Case Files Volume 2: The Mummy's Curse Graphic Novel

Introduction: Hajime Kindaichi is a teenaged crime solver who's part Sherlock Holmes, part Encyclopedia Brown, part Scooby Doo.
Kindaichi (frequently with best-bud, Miyuki) travels to various places where a murder has taken place, typically involving ghosts, curses, myths and folklore of significant events from the distant past, and solves the mystery using ingenious deductions of curious clues and his cool magic.

This Volume's Story: Hajime Kindaichi is a world-class underachiever. At school, his only real friend is model student Miyuki - so it surprises everyone when he gets an invite to a classmate's wedding. But Kindaichi notices there's something a little odd about the bride's hometown and the six gorgeous mansions built there. His suspicions are confirmed when the owners of the mansions are gruesomely murdered, one by one. Kindaichi knows he's the only one that can crack this case, but when he learns he may be dealing with a mummy's curse, he wonders if he might be in over his head. Using detective skills that would make Sherlock Holmes proud, this greenhorn gumshoe must uncover the identity of the killer and the secret of the six mansions before he becomes the next target.
