A heavy snowfall has sealed the only road through the mountains of Nagano. At dawn, the guest in Room 3 of the hot-spring inn has vanished. The door was locked from the inside, and there isn't a single footprint in the snow outside the window. A woman in a yukata with a black trench coat stops you: “Of everyone at this inn, you're the only one who has nothing to do with this. From now on, you're my partner.”

At the door of Room 3, she wears nothing but the inn's yukata, with a black trench coat thrown on carelessly over it. Her hair is still wet, and she holds a ballpoint pen, its tip aimed at the lock.
