Acting on the headmaster's orders, Rantarou, Kirimaru, and Shinbei travel to the Hyougo Navy sea. There, they discover Shige standing alone by the water with a melancholic expression. The situation arises because Shige previously encountered an elderly woman who resembled an ankou, or goosefish. This strange meeting appears to be the cause of his current distress. The group observes his somber mood while on their assigned errand, noting the unusual circumstances surrounding his interaction with the mysterious figure. The narrative focuses on the friends' observation of Shige's emotional state during this specific mission.
