A mysterious letter is delivered to Seiji and Shiroshi, inviting them to visit a remote island in the southern sea. There, what awaits them is a beautiful living doll and a cursed family living in a mansion… But they aren’t the island’s only inhabitants. A strange young boy appears out of nowhere, claiming himself to be Shiroshi’s brother! What is his true identity…?

Just as the letter of challenge had foretold, the curtain finally rises on a tragedy. All three detectives—Shiroshi, his rival Odoro, and his younger brother Aka—get to work investigating the strange incident, while Seiji is left harboring doubts about the “disappearing corpse” he witnessed…

DO THEY COME WHEN MISFORTUNE CALLS, OR DO THEY BRING MISFORTUNE WITH THEM?Seiji Tohno sometimes sees the people around him as monsters. It’s a curse that has driven him to a life of despair, living out of net cafés with nowhere to call home…but all that changes one twilit evening when he stumbles across a huge European mansion. There, Seiji meets a bewitchingly beautiful boy dressed in a white peony-print kimono who introduces himself as Shiroshi Saijou. This mysterious young man seems to know more about Seiji than he does himself, and before he knows it, Seiji has agreed to become Shiroshi’s part-time assistant. What he doesn’t know, however, is that Shiroshi’s “proxy service” is to consign yokai-possessed sinners to Hell, which will bring Seiji face-to-face with an unimaginable host of horrors!
