Chapter 90

**Chapter 90** is the ninetieth chapter of the *Dead Mount Death Play* manga.

## Official Blurb

A sinister abandoned hospital where people keep disappearing… Just what kind of creature is waiting in the shadows for unsuspecting visitors?

## Synopsis

Takumi Kuruya shows Corpse God a video from the "Zukuzuku Bonbon" YouTube channel that explains the origin of the "Corpse Hunt Challenge": a few months ago, content creator Great General Eaves had made a video offering a reward for any eyewitness information about the whereabouts of his friend—a fellow content creator—who had disappeared after saying he was going to visit Shinjuku's abandoned sites in one of his videos. Takumi proceeds to yell at Lemmings and Majiri Agakura for breaking his computer monitors, which claims cost him ¥416,940. Lemmings tells Xiaoyu Lei that he will recoup Takumi's losses later; for now, he is here because he wants Phantom Solitaire's location. Once Corpse God explains how he contacted Solitaire, Lemmings leaves, satisfied.

The group's attention returns to Majiri and her invitation for Corpse God to participate alongside her in the Corpse Hunt Challenge. Corpse God requests time to consider it, which Majiri grants. Humbled by Lemmings' gracious promise of compensation, she sincerely apologizes to Takumi for Momoya Agakura's rudeness toward and kidnapping of him, then lifts the monitors onto Takumi's desk via vampiric telekinesis. She moreover promises that the Agakura Clan will aid Takumi (or perhaps Corpse God's entire crew) next time he is / they are in trouble.

Majiri says that she will return tomorrow night to hear whether Corpse God decides to come; if he does, then they shall together head to an abandoned site. After Majiri leaves, Civil A. Sabaramond remarks that she seems to have an idea of Corpse God's true identity. Takumi meanwhile warns Corpse God that Lisa Kuraki will not be able to assist him should he visit the sites situated on other mediators' turf—no matter how closely they border Shinjuku's own—such as the abandoned hospital in Shibuya.

Lemmings enters Takeru Shinoyama's office and asks for an advance payment of ¥416,940. Takeru agrees in exchange for Lemmings taking on some investigative work: yesterday, the daughter of one of Shinoyama Security's major clients went missing during a so-called 'corpse hunt' that likely took place in a certain hospital. Although Takeru has already solicited Majiri's aid, he would appreciate Lemmings' aid as well.

In an Agakura residence, Yumeji Agakura mentions to Momoya that his predecessor was dealing with much trouble surrounding various abandoned sites, including the abandoned hospital that Yumeji is currently looking into. Kana Agakura interjects that she has heard of that site from 'Great General Eaves', one of the key content creators named in the video Takumi showed Corpse God.

Across the world, Kuon Higuro meets with a female contact about the Bastard Children of Sabaramond organization, which the contact has not heard of; however, she mentions that a strange organization is rumored to have infiltrated the "highest levels of government" in the country of Lugnisas. Higuro muses that he was unable to properly prepare his succeeding mediator back in Japan for "they" who are probably "crawling their way out from the abandoned sites right now."

## Trivia

* The 'Zukuzuku Bonbon' channel name derives from the names or pseudonyms of the two young men who run it: Zukutan and Bontsuku.
* The 'telekinesis' or 'absolute control' that Majiri exerts strongly resembles the telekinesis and subjugation that some vampires are capable of in Ryohgo Narita's vampire-centric light novel series *Vamp!* For more information, see the *Vamp!* Wiki's vampires article.

### Referbacks

* To Corpse God's clandestine nighttime meeting with Solitaire.
* Higuro left for the Mediterranean-based Republic of Lignisasse in Chapter 82. It is not entirely clear if the Lignisasse republic is distinct from "country of Lugnisas" or if these are one and the same; the Yen Press English translation has a history of spelling inconsistencies, so 'Lugnisas' being a spelling variant of 'Lignisasse' is just as likely as the two countries' names being etymologically related.
