## Description
“We all have a little darkness inside of us.” 

It’s always so easy to bury secrets in small towns. Especially when the authority turns a blind eye. Just as you moved back to your childhood town, an unfortunate chain of events leads you to a series of mysterious cases buried away by the locals. Your friends seem just as clueless as you are … Or are they? 

Guided by only the vaguest clues and instinct, your task is to find the missing pieces of bizarre cases that seem to involve more and more people you know as you go along. As time progresses, you must choose: Either to stay ignorant, enjoy your last year of High School blissfully and hope for the best, or dive head-first into detective mode and claw your way out.

## Characters
### Honoyasei Ember
Tomboy, lone-wolf jock and delinquent... those would be the nicest things people would say about Ember. She can be imposing with her towering stature and loud voice, but dig a bit deeper and you'll find an enthusiastic leader, a passionate friend and an awkward girl that can run her mouth a hundred miles a second!

Despite having an overbearing presence, Ember hides demons of her own. Seemingly a magnet for trouble, will her unanswered questions drive you away or bring you two together?

### Ichihara Chiharu
Sweet, caring, and a pro-homecook Chiharu is everything you would want in a childhood friend. Though she was raised sheltered and with a silver spoon in her mouth, Chiharu is not at all spoiled. Shy, a bit naive and craving for companionship due to a lonely lifestyle, Chiharu is always eager to please and always forgets about herself in order to help other people. She does love gossip however, and can be quite the fashionista (with lots of pastel, of course!)

As she is given a second chance to amend her regrets, will the timid Chiharu have the guts to see it through till the end? That remains for you to decide.

### Murasaki Sumire
"Hugs, hugs, hugs! HUGS FOR EVERYONE!!!"

Sumire is Komachi's bubbly self-proclaimed journalist extraordinaire. A huge fan of the supernaturals, she has been disappointed to hear Komachi High's very own Occult Club only accepts senior students! But it's alright, that doesn't mean Sumire can't conduct her own independent investigation.

Despite her mind~over~matter personality, Sumire is sharp-minded and quite witty for her age. Watch out mysteries! Sumire is coming for you!

### Onishi Emiri
There is nothing more important to an Onishi than her duty.

Serious, immaculate, dignified, Emiri was groomed since she was a child to take over the Onishi household. As the town of Komachi was built on traditions Emiri became one of their figureheads the moment she inherited her family's shrine. With her no-nonsense attitude and ice cold glare, she is deemed to be unapproachable by her peers. The elder of the Onishi twins, she tends to keep a close eye on her sister, in spite of their rocky relationship.

Is her stalwart stance truly backed by a frozen heart, or is it a wall to keep the hurt at bay? Or is there something even deeper that she is trying to hide? The answer is for you to find.

Friendly and mischievous, Shizuyo tends to draw attention to herself. Emiri can be the one running the town but Shizuyo would like all to know that she runs the show!
