Glad it's the same as my guess.
Now, the confirmation by native teachers.

We don't use b, give some examples if you want further explaining.

Sorry if the example is bad. I'm just curious about the inversion of 'auxil. ...ed' form.

It's easier to study this stuff with examples. Make up some example sentences. Add some nouns, GET CREATIVE.

You don't come up easily with any example of the inversion of 'auxil. ...ed', if you call yourself 'native'? It would be a great help if you gave me any.
Right now, I'm just thinking about this problem strictly from the syntactical point of view.

Taka,
You can make up whatever rules you want. Make up whatever theories you want. If you want to see how it relates to the real world, you will need to make example sentences. I am learning Japanese, and it makes no sense for Japanese to tell me the answers or make sentences for me. The only way for me to learn is to make my own sentences and ask for corrections.

pieanne,
In that sentence, you have added "he" in between "will" and "have". It's a little different than B.
