And then one day, Keiichi happens to hear of an unsolved murder that occurred in the village some five years ago.

And suddenly things get really strange when one of Keiichi’s school friends warns him not to ask any more questions or else risk the same fate of a student who abruptly disappeared and ‘transferred’ out the year before……..
