The skeletal remains are identified as a professor linked to the two victims. That same night, university professor Shirai successfully deciphers the code for the tomb of Yamata no Orochi. He enters what he believes to be the tomb, which is revealed to be a large cave by the next morning. However, shortly after entering this cavern, Shirai is killed. This event connects the professor directly to the earlier deaths and the ancient myth surrounding the serpent. The investigation must now account for this new murder and the specific circumstances of Shirai's death within the cave structure.
