Blurb

"I wanted to meet you. You killed me..."

Surrounded by a mysterious beauty, she murmurs sadly.

The main character, Kazuya Furuyagi, once again tries to infiltrate his client's mind.

Is what reflected in the darkness his hideous past? A mysterious psycho trance that takes place as life and death intersect.

And there, waiting for Old Man Kamiya's terrifying trap.
