At this rate, she said I'll face the same fate as Satoshi...

Be more specific.

Like transfer.

The Snatched-by-a-Demon Chapter Part 4 Disturbance

Higurashi no Naku Koro ni

furimuita sono ushiro no shoumen dare

When you turn around, who is that behind you?

kurayami ni tsume wo tatete yoru wo hikisaita

Bury your claws in the darkness and shred the night

amadare wa chi no shizuku to natte hoho wo tsutaiochiru

The raindrops turn to drops of blood and trickle down your cheek

mou dokonimo kaeru basho ga nainara

If you have no place to return to

mou dokonimo kaeru basho ga nainara

If you have no place to return to

kono yubi tomare watashi no yubi ni

Stop on this finger, on this finger of mine

sono yubi goto tsuretetteageru

I'll take you away, along with that finger

higurashi ga naku akazu no mori de

Where the evening cicadas cry in the forbidden forest

atomodori wa mou dekinai

You cannot turn back anymore

Um, I'll be right back.

Okay, I don't mind.

Good evening.

R-Rena...

Why are you here?

Keiichi-kun, have you eaten yet?

No...

I'm glad.

I brought some side dishes.

I could warm it in the kitchen...

I'm grateful, but it looks like dinner will be ready soon.

Really?

My mom makes a lot of side dishes.

So...

Did your mother really make dinner?

Uh, well, she didn't, but right now...

Why?

Why do you lie?

Why?

It's not...

That's a lie!

Your dinner is cup ramen, isn't it?

Grilled ginger pork, which you bought at Seventh Mart.

How...

But that's not enough for you. You should eat vegetables too.

So, Keiichi-kun, could you open this please?

Go home...

Keiichi-kun, open it.

Please go home.

Keiichi-kun...

Go home.

Go home!

Go home! Go home!

Ouch! It hurts, Keiichi-kun!

Go home! Go home!

Ouch! It really hurts, Keiichi-kun!

Go home! Go home!

I'm sorry for fooling around.

Go home! Go home!

It hurts... I'm sorry... I'm sorry...

Go home!

Go home! Go home!

I'm sorry... I'm sorry...

Go home! Go home!

I'm sorry. I'm sorry.

Go home!

I'm sorry.

Hello? Ooishi-san?

Rena was just here.

She came to visit?

No...

Ooishi-san, please tell me about Rena.

I don't mind, but don't tell anyone else.

Also, there might be some assumptions made...

Is that okay?

Yes.

I understand.

Truthfully, I'm suspicious.

You mean they're suspects?

No, that's not what I mean.

I'm talking about Oyashiro-sama.

I was wondering if Oyashiro-sama's curse really exists...

And things like that...

The incident with Ryuuguu Rena that I told you about before...

Breaking the school windows in Ibaraki?

Yes.

Actually, there were victims.

Three male students she was close to were hit with a bat.

A bat?

But neither the school nor victims prosecuted,

so it didn't go to court.

Those involved somehow are not willing to disclose anything.

Though one victim had a damaged eye from the beating,

he didn't go to court or talk about it.

Hello?

Maebara-kun, can you hear me?

What is she saying?

What's that, Maebara-san?

I'm sorry...

Maebara-san? Maebara-san?

I'm sorry.

I'm sorry.

Hello?

I'm sorry.

Kei-chan!

Good morning!

Did you always like baseball?

I can't concentrate!

Leave me alone!

Stop swinging.

What?

Stop swinging.

I stopped.

That's not it.

I want you to stop for today.

Why?

I'm not bothering anyone.

You are!

Who did I bother and when?

That's even someone else's bat...

It's something a transfer student forgot, right?

It's strange, huh...

Only the brother transferred, and his little sister didn't, right?

You knew?

Houjou Satoshi.

Satoko's older brother, right?

Spirited away last year and vanished.

I heard that Satoshi was also practicing swinging.

And right before he went missing.

Is this a warning for Oyashiro-sama's curse?

Anyway, everyone's afraid.

If you're just fooling around,

then you have to stop imitating Satoshi!

I'll say this first. I don't know anything about Satoshi.

Everyone's hiding it.

We weren't hiding it...

You didn't want to scare me?

I'm shut out just for that reason?

No, I didn't mean...

I asked if something happened at the dam site.

You said no!

Despite the dismemberment!

You liar!

Sorry, I didn't mean to lie...

Friends don't hide things from each other, right?

Isn't that right?

That's why you're not my friends!

K-Kei-chan...

That's not...

Oh, the ohagi that you gave me was good.

So good it made me bleed.

Who did it?

You or Rena?

You can't easily get rid of me even if you try.

Don't think you can get rid of me as easily as Satoshi.

I know that you got into several fights

with the dam construction director who got killed.

You thought you could hide it?

How do you even know that?

Let's go.

It'd suck if we're late.

That's cruel, Kei-chan.

I see...

The person who told you everything was that guy.

I should've killed him back then.

He forgot how I forgave him since he was going to retire this year.

Damn.

Damn that old bastard.

I'll definitely kill him.

Old bastard...

You mean Ooishi-san?

Why does she have a cleaver?

I found you, Keiichi-kun.

What do you want?

My home is the same way.

Then what's that cleaver for?

What is it?

Keiichi-kun, isn't something bothering you?

You're scared, aren't you?

I...

I'm not scared...

When Satoshi-kun transferred, I really regretted it.

I really regretted not listening to what was bothering him.

Transferred... You mean spirited away by the demon, right?

Right?

Who got rid of Satoshi?

Was it you? Or Mion?

Or was it someone from the village? Answer me!

I don't know what you're talking about.

I'll say it so you understand.

Who committed the serial murders?

You misunderstand.

The suspect isn't human.

Oyashiro-sama decides everything.

Oyashiro-sama's curse is superstition!

You don't believe in Oyashiro-sama?

H-How could I believe such a thing?

Oyashiro-sama does exist.

Has someone apologized to you?

And for a long, long time?

Oyashiro-sama came to me too.

That's why I transferred and came back to Hinamizawa.

Only I can listen to your problems.

I won't let you transfer.

Now, tell me.

W-What?

I'll listen.

I'll save you.

So tell me.

No way!

What do you want?

I'll hit you on the foreheads next, you bastards!

I think you should remain lying down.

Rena...

I called the doctor, so he should be here soon.

Why are you here?

Pardon me!

Mion? Why?

Your family wasn't here, so I called her.

Hey, you look okay.

Did I waste time worrying?

Rena, did you call the supervisor?

Yes.

After I called you.

The supervisor will be here soon.

Who's the supervisor?

You don't know?

If I say supervisor, I mean the supervisor.

You're into baseball nowadays, right?

That'll make the supervisor happy.

Yeah!

So who's the supervisor?

The supervisor is the supervisor.

So who is that?

Y-You guys...

Oh, yeah!

Let's finish the punishment game before that.

Punishment game?

The ohagi homework.

I'm sure you forgot about it, huh?

What are you doing?

Don't move.

It's a punishment game.

What is that?

What are you doing?

Kei-chan, you know, right?

What?

What do I know?

We suspected drugs, but we couldn't detect anything like that.

Give up.

Stop!

Stop it!

They came.

Rena and Mion are suspects.

There are more than four or five adults who own a white van.

Tomitake-san's death was from an unknown drug.

The proof is this syringe.

Why?

Why did it turn out like this?

He's here! The back door!

Just a second.

Oh, Ooishi-san, you have a call from the public.

Oh, thank you.

It's from a public phone.

This is Ooishi, hello?

O-Ooishi-san?

Maebara-san? Did something happen?

Uh...

What happened?

Hinamizawa

Telephone booth

U-U-U-Um, I...

Calm down, Maebara-san.

I'll send a nearby officer now.

I'll be there right away too.

Um, that's probably useless...

It'll be too late.

Calm down, Maebara-san.

There's only one

phone booth there.

I sent a car.

Five minutes.

How's the situation right now?

That's too long! How many people are in the car?

Two.

Did you call the resident officer?

He's on scheduled patrol.

Kuma-chan, please prepare a car!

Yes, sir!

Hello, Maebara-san?

There's an officer headed there now.

It'll be two to three minutes.

Maebara-san, who's the suspect?

How many?

I-I also thought at first that the suspect was human...

But actually...

...Oyashiro-sama seems to exist.

Right now...

Maebara-san?

It keeps following me...

Even though I run, run, run, and run...

...it sticks to me like a shadow.

Little by little, little by little...

...it keeps coming closer to my back.

Maebara-san, is he...

Right now, by any chance, is he behind...

Behind me... Right behind me...

Who's there?

How can I look back?

If I turn around, I'll... I'll...

I know you're afraid! But I want you to tell me!

Just turn around a little bit!

Who's behind you, Maebara-san?

Maebara-san, you're not...

...clawing your throat, are you?

Hello, Maebara-san?

Maebara...

Sorry...

Ooishi-san, the car is ready.

Ooishi-san!

Sorry?

June 1983

In Shishibone City, Hinamizawa, female students were murdered.

The suspect is Maebara Keiichi.

Inviting two classmates over, Ryuuguu Rena and Sonozaki Mion,

he beat them to death with a bat.

He fled and was found collapsed in a phone booth by officers,

dying 24 hours later at the hospital.

The autopsy said death was caused by shock from blood loss.

By slitting his throat with his own nails,

he died from losing too much blood.

No sign of drugs was found.

Later, a handwritten memo was found in the suspect's room.

It was made of two sheets of B5 college-ruled paper cut in half

and taped behind the clock on the wall.

That memo must've originally been one B5 page

which was torn to remove a few lines in the middle of the page.

From the large amount of tape residue behind the clock,

it could be assumed that something else was also taped.

The following is the memo.

I am Maebara Keiichi, and my life is in danger.

I don't know why or who.

The only thing I know...

...is that it has something to do with Oyashiro-sama's curse.

Rena and Mion are suspects.

There are more than four or five adults who own a white van.

The following is the second page.

I don't know how things turned out like this.

I'll probably be dead by the time you read this.

To the one reading this, please uncover the truth.

That is my only wish.

Maebara Keiichi.

To get my happiness I have done everything,

but had done nothing to be blamed and accused of.

The sound of footsteps became louder every day,

Then I noticed the fact there was no time.

I was a believer in life to be myself always,

and was asking whether I would be alive.

Give me a reason why not to adapt in this way,

or judge me to be guilty of so many incurable sins.

Tell me why, or why not. Complaining way too much,

maybe I overlooked something fatal for me.

Next

I want you to stare at the real me.
