It seems the perfect place for the family to recover from the ordeal, despite the mysterious disappearance of a previous officer posted there.

One day, the body of an old woman is found on the mountain. The Goto family says she was attacked by a bear, but Daigo notices a human bite mark on the arm. Daigo begins to suspect something is not quite right with the village.
