 I have the red hardcover Kodansha "2015 The Last Year of Ryoji Kagi"
 book.

 The "photos" taken by Kaji are all taken by his spy/hidden camera
 IMO - from the angles & sequences shown he was both taking sequences
 (the tunnel entrance) & sometimes "buttonhole" position.

 The 2 most intriguing "photos" are those of the airduct rooms with
 their gigantic fans, similar to where he was killed.  The pic inside
 the front cover shows a fan, & the same inside the back cover, except
 that between 2 blades there is a squiggly line of brilliant light,
 similar to what you get taking a slow exposure with an unsteady
 camera.

 Seeing that, I wondered if the bright light was the muzzle flash of
 the gun that killed him, in which case Kagi did not see his killer, &
 (Kagi) was facing a fan as well as having his back to one.  He
 possibly heard footsteps (& said "there you are")  starting his
camera
 which resulted in the pic of the fan on the inside cover, next was
the
 shot that got captured as the pic on the inside back cover - camera
 working as Kaji was hit, hence the jolted light taken.

 I guess its also possible there were 2 people involved in Kagi's
 murder.  Either both together, 1 to distract him who he knew, 1 to
 shoot; or Kagi was meeting somebody else & who escaped after the
 assassin fired.
