Leaving him be, Hiroshi explores around the mansion a bit more until he comes back to check up on Takeshi but notices that he's gone from the closet. Hiroshi then finds Takeshi on the second floor shivering in fear inside a closet, Hiroshi asks whether he knows where the others are but the only response he got was Takeshi's teeth chattering. He tries to open the door but it's locked. Moving to the bathroom area, he notices a figure moving inside of the bathroom. After he tries to break the door with force, he realizes he is stuck inside the mansion and tries to find a way out. Hiroshi tries to open the entrance door, thinking that they left the mansion while he investigated. He then goes back to tell his friends it was just a shattered plate, but sees they are not there. The scene turns to Hiroshi at the time the door behind him opens, a white cat comes out and dashes away after seeing him. The mysterious figure's point of view suggests it's the Oni itself, slowly walking closer to Megumi and eventually charging at them. While everyone is in complete shock, Megumi notices a figure approaching from her side and tries to identify it. After receiving payment from Kazuya, Takuro heads to the entrance door and tries to open it to leave, but it's locked somehow. Searching in the kitchen, the door behind Hiroshi opens, and the scene cuts to the five waiting for his return. A while later, a sound of a plate being shattered is heard and Hiroshi volunteers to investigate while the rest wait. The six arrive in front of the mansion and enter. Takuro forces Hiroshi and Kazuya to accompany them to a haunted mansion located on the outskirts of town. The game starts off as Hiroshi and his best friend, Kazuya, are walking home from school, discussing about a new game that Kazuya bought until they accidentally bump into Takuro and his gang: Megumi, Takeshi, and Ryota (who resembles Hiroshi in later versions).
