Featuring Snow Woman Monster Snowgon.

Rumiko-chan, at night it gets really cold!

You should bring a heavy sweater that you can also use as pajamas!

It's fine. Mountain cabins have the stove on all night.

No, listen to Jiro-san.

They say mountain weather changes easily.

Right. They say a woman's heart is like a winter mountain.

Don't get cheeky.

It's Go! Is Jiro over here bothering you?

Oh?

He's here, but he's not bothering anyone!

Good morning. Good morning.

Hey! I woke up and your bed was empty. You scared me.

Well, we're going mountain climbing. I couldn't sit still.

You'll really take him with you?

Would you like to join us, Go-san?

Yes. But I just can't get tomorrow off.

You really are busy.

Is it a case?

Yeah.

Maybe we shouldn't go.

No, please look after him.

I haven't had a lot of time to spend with Jim recently.

Ooh!

Take care.

Go-san, what souvenir do you want?

Surprise me.

Rumiko-san, please look after him.

Okay. We'll be going.

I'm off! Take care!

Good morning.

Morning.

I hear we're on standby.

Yeah. It might be a little hasty but there were three strange vanishings.

One after another at Yatsugatake,

Karuizawa, and Manza.

Vanishings? That's police jurisdiction.

Yeah.

But, from the remaining items of the three cases,

we can only believe they disappeared from the planet.

So there you have it.

Huh.

They were all on late autumn Sunday picnics.

And the fact that all three cases were of couples concerns me.

Couples on picnics.

What's wrong? Oh.

It's nothing.

Those two aren't really a couple, so...

We're almost there.

Okay.

Hello.

Do you know a mountain cabin called Kaede-so?

Oh, that's exactly where we're going.

It's just ahead. Let's go together.

Wow, that's a relief. Thank you.

Hmm. "Mouse."

"E"... "Earth!"

"H," "h," "h"... I don't know...

Got anything?

"Hood." Little Red Riding Hood's hood!

Oh! Not bad!

"D," huh? "Dome!"

Hmm. "E," huh? "E"...

"Earthquake!"

Um, are there any newlyweds here?

Yo! Right there! Over here!

Oh, thank you.

We just got married.

That's very nice.

Actually, there's a separate cabin just for newlyweds.

If you'd like, we can show it to you.

Let's have them go ahead.

Us single guys are all sweaty here.

Go on. What are you waiting for? Right that way.

Oh, they're embarrassed.

Take care.

It's pretty chilly.

Man, it's cold.

Rumiko-chan, are you okay?

I'm fine. I'm still wearing my sweater.

Even so, it's cold. I'm going downstairs to check the stove.

Man, it's cold.

Yow!

That's strange.

Oh.

It's cold, isn't it?

Is it snowing hard?

Yeah. That caretaker woman looks like a Snow Woman in the falling snow.

Man, it's creepy.

The Snow Woman is a legendary female yoked that appears in winter in snowy areas.

Her body is cold like ice, but it is said that she is actually kind.

But is this really a kind Snow Woman appearing now?

Nobuo, is something wrong with me? I'm freezing.

I know.

But look how much the stove is burning.

Hold me and warm me.

Sure.

Oh!

Are the newlyweds staying over there?

It looks like it.

Ya-ho!

Stop that. It's rude.

It was that cold last night, so those two probably had it tough.

Good point.

Let's see how they're doing.

Hello!

Hello?

We're coming in.

Goodbye! Goodbye.

Goodbye. Take care.

Oh, what happened to the steamy couple?

Well, actually...

They left while it was still dark.

They must have gotten too embarrassed to see everyone again.

Take care.

Take care. Goodbye.

Goodbye. Goodbye.

Well, as far as we've been able to gather,

the vanishings have been from these five locations.

According to information, on the days people vanished, each cabin was being

managed by an old man and his granddaughter.

And they were all young couples.

These are the common points.

How did the old man and granddaughter disguise themselves as caretakers?

Hmm.

The real caretakers got orders from their respective village offices to return.

These were obviously fake.

So they're strange kidnappings from mountain cabins?

What are they after? Ransom money?

No. There's been no demands to the remaining families.

Captain!

There's been another couple vanishing.

Thelocafion?
