It's our nature is shaky to hunt people.

I have seen that not to know is dead.

Before Setsuko and Mikiyasu passed on, were they in the same state as

Making someone I hate suffer is amazing!

That sting?

There's a brave boy.

Sorry All patched up

Thank you for

watching!

Thank you.

It's as dangerous to be around a smoker as it is to be one yourself.

So is that it? Is that what you're doing? Trying to kill me?

Sure. Tell me out! Tell me out! Come here!

Great.

What's the matter, Mom?

Oh, please, you have to do something.

I was worried for his health. I told him he should quit smoking because it isn't

good for him.

dark yet.

But there's nobody around.

Yeah, they're all just a bunch of stinking cowards afraid of the dark or

something, you know. I can tell that you aren't like the others, though. You're

a brave man, huh?

You know it. That's me.

Maybe you'd like to keep me company for conversation, of course. Why don't you

come up here? The stairs around the back.

You're sure?

Oh, I'm sure.

Thank you, honey.

Hey, Satoko, how are you today?

Um, I'm looking for Yuki. Is she here?

Yuki? I don't think she's in yet. Wait, what's the matter?

I was told she didn't come home after work yesterday.

Oh, dear. What happened?

I'm not sure.

We're checking to see if anyone knows where she is.

If we can't find her soon, we're going to have to report it to the police. This

is getting scary.

It's the doctor.

Doctor, Yuki's gone. We can't find her anywhere.

Oh, I see.

What should I do?

Something bad might have happened to her.

That's true.

He doesn't even seem to care.

The doctor is a person just like everyone else.

His wife's in critical condition, so he's a bit distracted.

Even so, Yuki has been a loyal employee of the clinic for a long time.

And all he bothers to say when he finds out she's gone missing is, I see.

What kind of response is that?

I see.

The disease got him. They said that he just passed away.

There's nobody left at the construction company now.

He was hit.

I think the doctor's about at the end of his rope, too.

He looks exhausted.

Yeah, he really does.

I'm sorry, Father.

Tokujiro has passed away.

Very well.

That's not all.

Hiroyatama has died.

He's the first one from the Tama family.

Yes, so what should we do about the funeral?

Normally, someone from the Tama family would preside over the service, but with

this tragedy of their own... You will need to consult with Elder Gohei

All right, I will.

Come back, son.

Take that letter.

It's to the Kirishikis?

I need you to mail it for me.

Just a note welcoming them to the village.

A letter?

Has my father noticed that all of this started when the Kirishikis moved here?

I thought you should know.

Your father's dead.

Coddy? You there?

It's Megami!

Well, did you hear me? Your father bit the big one.

What's going on?

I'm in here.

Dad!

Dad, wake up! Come on!

What's the fuss about?

It's Dad. I think that he's dead, Mom.

Nonsense. He's probably just passed out.

Yes, hi.

I'm sorry for bothering you this late.

Um, well, my last name is Tanaka.

Ah, Yoshikazu Tanaka's family.

Has something happened to Mr. Tanaka?

Yes, he... well, he just collapsed.

I'll be right over.

Hello? Huh?

Wow, they got here quick.

Hi, my name is Ebuchi.

May I come in?

I'm here for your father.

Are you going to stay with Kyoko again tonight?

Yeah.

Her condition seemed quite serious.

Should we let her parents know how sick she is?

Those people.

I don't want them complaining that we didn't keep them informed.

Yeah, sure.

You're looking a little pale yourself.

Yeah.

Tonight is critical for her.

If it doesn't go well, we may want to contact her parents tomorrow.

It's been four full days since Kyoko died, and nothing's happened yet.

Considering the villagers still aren't aware of the Shiki, they obviously don't

rise up within a day or two of death.

If they did, their families wouldn't have the chance to bury them.

So it takes around three days or 72 hours for them to rise up.

That way, they don't risk being discovered.

But in Kyoko's case, it's taking much longer.

This is almost the fifth day.

I'm losing it.

I don't know how much longer I can stand hiding a dead body in the clinic.

I'll wait one more night.

If she doesn't rise up by tomorrow morning...

I'll give up.

She's definitely gone.

But some change is occurring in the body.

Oh, Kyoko.

Go on, everyone get to bed already.

Yoshi? Hmm?

There's something I wanted to ask you about.

Yeah, what's up?

I was wondering if you knew if Yuki had risen up yet.

Well... I heard his body was carried out of the house this morning.

Where did they take him?

I've got no idea.

But if it was in the morning, that obviously means they didn't use our

home. His family moved here from a big city, didn't they? I guess it's no real

surprise, then.

All right. I'll just go find him myself.

Megumi, in cities, they don't bury corpses.

They cremate them.

Cremate them?

But that means my Yuki is... No!

What's this? Not to know what cremated?

So he's all burned up. Nothing but a little pile of ashes.

I guess that means he'll never rise up, huh?

He wouldn't be a bottom feeder like you.

I don't understand.

You all drool over cocky jerks like Natsuno who try to act cool.

Now,

now. You'll be here a long time.

Sooner or later you'll find a guy who's even better.

And who knows? Play your cards right and you could be put in the big city unit.

Huh? You killed the Tanaka kid's father, right? That was the big score.

Yeah. Big city unit.

You really don't know?

It's a special group of us that goes into the city to kidnap people.

Extras to feed worthless Shiki who can't hunt for themselves in the village, and

for those who've just risen up.

417 AM on October 15th. This will be the official record of everything that

happens from here on.

Kyoko Ozaki. I recorded her death on October 10th. Cause of death was

exsanguination.

Yesterday at 19 .18, the EEG showed minor activity.

Ocular examination showed that her corneas were transparent.

Rigor mortis is completely gone.

The EEG shows frequent waves.

5 .24.

Liver mortis is gone and skin has regained some color.

632. Some pupillary reflex.

Skin remains the same.

It is shaking.

Hello, Hashiguchi residence.

Yasuyo, this is Ozaki.

Doctor, what's wrong? You never call at this hour.

No, Doctor.

I'm sorry.

I'll let everyone else know.

Do you need any help?

I'll be fine.

Honestly, there's not much we can do at this point. I just don't want to take my

eyes off her.

I understand, sir.

It's 1706.

I'm now obtaining a blood sample.

The puncture hole from the needle closes quickly, healing in a few minutes.

The blood is transforming as well.

Even when left alone, it neither coagulates nor separates.

It shows no reaction to various chemicals.

However, I observe its color gradually changing to dark red.

How are you feeling?

It's 1909.

The subject regains consciousness.

Don't worry.

I'll put you right back to sleep.

When I was too young to know what I wanted in life, I confided in Toshio.

We're not just tools for carrying on our family line. We have the freedom to

choose our own path.

Freedom? I have no real freedom.

Neither of us do.

The villagers rely on both of us.

If I left the temple and Toshio closed the clinic, what would they do?

Anesthesia doesn't work.

Thiopental, ketamine, pentazocine, and morphine fail too.

Toshi! Toshi!

Next, I'll try an agrochemical injection.

I've learned several things from a sensory examination.

The sound of bells seems to frighten her.

She shows an adverse reaction to a Buddhist statue as well.

It seems her brain has been reconfigured in a way that makes her afraid of

certain stimuli.

Incantations affect her.

Knowing all this we can likely evade many attacks.

The last question.

How do you go about stopping a Shiki for good?

The incision closes immediately.

No trace of it remains.

I cut open the antecubital area, exposed the median cubital vein, and cut it

open.

The bleeding stopped as if the vein shut off somewhere.

The incision closes too.

It's impossible to injure her with ordinary methods.

Her brain was the first of her organs to revive.

What if I destroy it?

It's no use.

I need to cut off the blood flow by taking off her head or severing the

connection between the aorta and the vena cava.

If this doesn't work, nothing will.

You've got good timing.

Think you could give me a hand cleaning this up?

Thank you.

Thank you.

The villagers are growing farther and farther apart.

I cannot even understand what I am doing, nor can I control it.

In this state, how can I hope to understand others?

When everyone else is certain, why must I still question everything I do?

We are shrouded.

Spiritual darkness surrounds us, and we cannot escape.
