## Synopsis

"Why did Eiji save me?" To find out the reason, Migi dresses in a disguise to visit Eiji at his home.

## Plot Summary

Playing at Akiyama's house, Akiyama tells Hitori (Migi) that Eiji is out of the hospital. Migi wonders why Eiji risked himself to saved him. Migi returns to the Sonoyama house to find Mrs. Sonoyama caring for her flushed son in bed, who cries out "Migi". Migi leaves the home with the wig Dali used to dress up as Sali.

Sali (Migi) goes to the Ichijo home to visit Eiji. Mrs. Ichijo says that he is unwell, but Eiji comes down and asks for her to come in. Sali asks Eiji why he tried to save Hitori, and Eiji says that he did it to atone for his sins. He takes Sali to the attic to show him the diorama that his mother made of Origon village. Eiji explains that when he was young, a woman came to his window, and he pushed her out. His mother tried to convince him that it was only a ghost, but Eiji believes that his mother is trying to cover up his crime by surveilling the village. He believes that Hitori is in danger because the figurine for Hitori has been broken, and he asks Sali to warn Hitori.

Mrs. Ichijo finds them in the attic and postures that she intends to hurt Sali. Eiji tackles his mother so that Sali can escape the attic. As she jumps down, Mrs. Ichijo grabs Sali's hair and discovers that it is Hitori wearing a wig. Migi hides in Karen's bedroom, and she helps to cover for him. Karen tells him that Mrs. Ichijo is not her real mother nor is she Eiji's mother.

Mrs. Ichijo runs through town repeating "Kill Kill Kill Kill Kill". She goes to the Sonoyama home where she has tea with Mr. and Mrs. Sonoyama that she has drugged to make them fall asleep. Migi returns to the Sonoyama home worried about Dali, and she finds that Mrs. Ichijo has tied him to the bed post. Mrs. Ichijo ties Migi up as well. She tells them that she will kill just one of them so that the Sonoyamas will still have a son. Dali speaks to Mrs. Ichijo about all of Migi's flaws but then says that she should spare Migi and kill him since he would not be able to go on without his brother.

As Mrs. Ichijo begins to choke Dali with her scarf, Mrs. Mitsuyama, the maid, arrives. She explains that Mrs. Ichijo tried to kill her by burying her alive, but Karen came to dig her out. After that, Mrs. Mitsuyama began visiting people who had been chased out of the village. She found a woman who is Karen's biological mother who told her that Mrs. Ichijo is a barren woman. Mrs. Ichijo begins to beat Mrs. Mistuyama with a stick, and as she is about to push her down the stairs, Mrs. Mistuyama pulls her down so that they both fall down the stairs. Mrs. Ichijo takes a knife from the kitchen and attempts to slit her throat, but the dog stops her.

Mrs. Mistuyama returns upstairs to untie the twins. As she is about to tell them something about Eiji, Mrs. Ichijo puts a knife into her neck, spilling blood onto both of the boys. The two leave by bicycle, riding in the rain until they come to a shrine where they spend the night. The following morning, someone leaves food at the shrine. Dali says that they ought to stay at the shrine, never to return, and then throws their bicycle into a culvert. Migi jumps into the culvert to retrieve it, saying that it was the first gift he ever received. He wishes to return to the Sonoyamas and eat cherry pie with them.

The two get into a fist-fight with Dali ultimately pummeling Migi. Recognizing that he went too far, he stops and agrees to return to the village asking Migi to steer the bicycle since he may have broken something in his hand. Post credits, the police are at the Sonoyama house interrogating the parents about their son with the bloodied knife shown in a plastic bag.
