44

Officer Inokawa checks everyone's alibis for the time Ruri's body was placed on the butterfly grave and only Miyama has no alibi, so he is taken in for questioning. Yamano Katsunori sees a Black Butterfly and tells the fearful story of a woman whose husband was killed by the village head's son who then took her as his wife. She bore three beautiful girls, but they all suicided and she placed a curse on the village. Days later, four Undying Butterflies appeared at the village head's house, and his family and the villagers began dying from some disease. That night the luminous butterflies lead everyone to Tateha's body, strung up like a butterfly. Later, Hajime asks Miyama Hikage his real name because he knows the words Miyama and Hikage are names of butterflies. Miyama says he has amnesia and was found unconscious and seriously burned in Kanazawa's mountain forest 6 months ago. Madarame took him in because Miyama had a butterfly-shaped burn on his back. Hajime suspects Miyama may be Eiji Touno, however he has no motive. Hajime suspects the murders relate to events of 25 years ago when Shimon discovered the luminous butterflies and Midori's lover Minoru Suga committed suicide. Suddenly, Ageha screams as she is surrounded by venomous spiders in the balneary. (Source: Wikipedia)
