Episode Title:
From the Darkness.
Episode Description:
In their shed, four classmates named Higashio, Itakura, Yamada and Nozaki secretly witness a girl named Yasuda being devoured by an unknown boy. The four of them soon list three possible suspects in their class. When Higashio does not show up to school the next day, Itakura, Yamada and Nozaki seek help from music store clerk Ungo Sakamoto. He gives them a business card addressed to Kyūshirō Yumeno, a detective who works at a rundown hospital. At the hospital, Yumeno explains to Itakura, Yamada and Nozaki that they saw an alien, which requires a large investigation fee. When Itakura goes missing several days later, Yamada and Nozaki finally contact Yumeno, giving up their parents' rings as payment and signing a contract. When Yamada and Nozaki find Higashio and Itakura in an isolated room, it turns out that Ungo tricked all of them into meeting Yumeno. Fortunately, Yumeno reveals that their lead suspect Yamamoto was the culprit, given that aliens do not leave behind fingerprints. Yumeno lets them go after showing them recorded footage of his incredible investigation. They happily share a box of fried chicken the following day. Surprisingly, Prince Baka was behind the production of this short film.
