Synopsis: A writer with a declining career arrives in a small town as part of his book tour and gets caught up in a murder mystery involving a young girl. That night in a dream, he is approached by a mysterious young ghost named V. He's unsure of her connection to the murder in the town, but is grateful for the story being handed to him. Ultimately he is led to the truth of the story, surprised to find that the ending has more to do with his own life than he could ever have anticipated.

business card

with the wooden stake.

83

00:

Hey. I would like to fill with

my thermos coffee, please.

All right.

97

00:
07:27,800 -- 00:07:29,800

98

00:
07:29,950 -- 00:07:32,350

Sure there are.

- In the Old Hotel "Chikering".

99
