You alright, Hiraga?
Why did the police ask us such absurd questions?
Those who live outside the providence of God are complicated people.
I did never learn much about those 'complicated' people...
It's changing colors! Look, Roberto!
You're right... without the other miracles happening, either.
What could this mean?
And they confiscated our other cameras...
Nothing we can do about it. There's a high chance they captured what happened here tonight.
Let's just be thankful we have the one.
You're right.
It's getting late. Shall we leave this for tomorrow?
But I've got to look over the video and verify the data...
Oh, that's right, I need to examine that boy's blood, too!
When on Earth did you take a sample?
And investigating the murder isn't our job.
We don't know that yet.
If it's connected...
There are those who would examine claims of holy miracles from around the world,
and verify a miracle has indeed occurred.
Please show them the way, O Lord, the Vatican Miracle Examiners!

Just as we were investigating a miracle at Saint Eligius Church, a murder took place,
one very similar to the local legend of the Decapitating Clown.
Lauren, there's something I'd like you to send me right away.
Haros, Haros, Haros!
Deep in the forest is the House Over There!
At the House Over There is a well that drowns out flames!
Hey! If you sing that song, an evil monster really will come and get you! At the House Over There is a well that drowns out flames!
Hey! If you sing that song, an evil monster really will come and get you!
A long time ago my friend sang that song and got her head chopped off!
Don't sing that song again, okay?
Okay...
"The House Over There"?
Good morning to you, Father.
And to you, Father.
I woke to the sounds of a strange song and yelling.
Oh, Mrs. Venninuanvi's family.
The song those children were singing is an old village folk song.
Folk song?
What is "The House Over There?"
It's a slang phrase in this region that means "Hell."
Hiraga, are you awake?
Yes, come in.
Hey now, you pulled an all-nighter?
Did you discover something important?
Yes. The light and sound come together, but the statue of Christ changes on its own.
Huh? Then were you able to figure out how it happens?
At the moment, I've got a guess...
I've messaged Lauren to send me the tools I need to confirm my suspicions.
That, and...
when I tested that poor boy's blood, I found something remarkable about it.
"Something remarkable"?
His cholecalciferol levels were extremely low.
What is that, exactly?
Simply put, Vitamin D3.
And his hemoglobin levels were half of what normal levels should be.
Half?!
I think those levels were caused by the environment in which he was raised,
as Vitamin D3 is synthesized in the skin from sunlight.
Which means this boy was kept out of the sun for many years.
What about the hemoglobin, then?
Hemoglobin transports oxygen and nutrients to cells.
What if that level of hemoglobin was enough for his body to function?
That would mean he didn't have enough nutrients for the hemoglobin to transport.
What kind of place was he living in?
Yes, it must have been like Hell.
"Like Hell..."
Haros, Haros, Haros!
Haros...
The Greek god of death?
What about him?
He was in that song they were singing outside.
Didn't you hear it?
I'm sorry, but I was so focused on the blood analysis that I didn't even notice it.
You're going to hurt yourself, you know.
You should probably take a small break.
Yes, you're right.
What about you, Roberto?
I'm going to take a little walk around Monte.
Mrs. Venninuanvi...
It's such an honor for a priest of the Vatican to visit my little home.
There's something I'd like to ask you, actually.
About that song your children were singing this morning.
Oh my.
Marco, let's go play outside!
You could hear them from the church? Okay, Tonio!
Oh, it's terrible. It's a song that calls forth the Devil!
I'll be very strict with them from now on not to sing that song...
Actually, I was more interested in what you said to them.
You said that a friend of yours had her head chopped off in the forest?
Yes, the Carlo incident...
It happened so long ago, thirty-two years ago, in fact.
Thirty-two years ago...
I don't want to speak ill of the dead, but...
Carlo was a notorious troublemaker who always made his girlfriend Teresa cry.
Could you tell me a bit more about the incident?
I don't mind, but I think it's best if you asked Antonio instead.
Antonio?
My cousin, Trones Antonio Venninuanvi.
He was involved in the incident as well.
Father Trones...
There was an incident like that in the past?
Yeah, another murder involving the Decapitating Clown.
According to Mrs. Venninuanvi's husband,
Carlo, the victim, went into the Clown's woods with three friends to shoot a documentary.
In the end, Carlo was killed,
and a woman named Dominica developed a mental illness.
What about the killer?
He was never caught, and the case is still unsolved.
And, years after the incident, the woman named Teresa was struck by lightning and killed.
The only one still alive is Antonio...
Father Trones.
But he's gone missing, too.
So, after I spoke with Mrs. Venninuanvi, I went by all their homes.
First, I stopped by Dominica's home.
The woman with the mental illness.
Yes.
I heard she lived with her father,
but her illness has gotten so severe that she can't leave the house.
She was Father Trones' lover, but before that,
she was an emotionally unstable woman who was difficult to handle.
Still, for her condition to have declined that far,
she must have experienced something truly terrifying.
Unfortunately, I was unable to meet Dominica herself.
Next, I went to Teresa's home.
After losing her boyfriend Carlo,
she was engaged for many years to Father Trones, before she was struck by lightning and died.
Her father was so lonely.
My wife died young, then I lost Teresa, who I raised alone...
It's a sad, lonely tale.
I'm so sorry for your loss.
I heard that your daughter was struck by lightning right before her wedding.
Yes, she seemed happy to marry Antonio... oh, he's Father Trones now,
and I never had a good opinion of Carlo...
Carlo Zetti was her first fiance, I hear?
He was rich, and a star rugby player, and in the beginning, that's what Teresa fell for.
But soon after, they began to constantly fight,
and Teresa would often go off alone to cry, her face swollen with tears.
That's why I was honestly a bit relieved when Carlo died.
You supported her marriage to Father Trones, then?
Yes, Antonio is a good man.
When my daughter died,
he was so distraught, he donated away all his riches
to become a man of the cloth.
Father Trones must have been so shocked by Teresa's death.
Looking back on it now, I think my daughter had a premonition of what was to come.
A few days before she died, she was strangely anxious.
What do you mean?
She would wake in the middle of the night, and kept looking out the windows...
As if she were afraid of a demon or something.
No, she may just have been afraid of Rodriguez.
Rodriguez?
He was Carlo's buddy, and a hoodlum at that.
He had a lot of money for someone without a job,
and after Carlo died, he started following Teresa around.
Where is he now?
He's dead now.
Died five years ago in a drunk driving accident.
Where does his family live?
I heard he was living with a woman
named Fioletta Cordwell,
but she just up and disappeared.
The last house I stopped by was Carlo Zetti's.
There, I found...
Sorry for the wait.
Here is a copy of the video Carlo recorded.
Thank you very much for letting us borrow this.
But why would a priest from the Vatican want to see this?
Was his death truly caused by a demon?
It's embarrassing to say aloud, but many people hated Carlo.
That's why I always thought it might have been someone who hated him that killed him...
I don't want to avenge his death.
I just want to know.
I want to know the truth of what happened to him.
That reaction is only natural for a mother in that situation.
This may reveal the reason behind Father Trones' disappearance, too.
In any case, let's give it a watch.
Haros...
What's that?
Huh?
Deep in the forest is the House Over There.
At the House Over There is a well that drowns out flames.
This is "the House Over There"?
That looks like a well.
Surprising that the camera Carlo was holding caught his head flying off.
Is that horn sound identical to the one we heard in the chapel?
And look...
The Motley Clown.
The video quality makes it difficult to tell if it's the real one.
Dominica experienced the most extreme terror compared to the other three involved.
And when and how did Teresa get back, after disappearing halfway through?
We could ask the same of Antonio... no, Father Trones.
Teresa was engaged to Carlo.
Antonio was dating Dominica.
Carlo died, and Dominica went crazy, so Teresa and Antonio got engaged.
That could mean...
Well, it might be hard for you to piece together, Hiraga.
Yes, I have no idea what this could mean.
Eh, I think it's alright for you to stay that way.
What?! Tell me what it means, Roberto!
The miracle happened again this morning, as expected.
So it doesn't matter whether or not they cancel Mass because of a murder.
Roberto.
Right.
Your pulse is a little high.
And your body temperature is a bit higher as well.
Do you feel tired at all?
No.
Alright, then I'll go check the data on the other priests.
How is your miracle investigation going, Fathers?
Agent Suskins!
I'd heard about a miracle at this church, but I never expected you two to be here examining it.
You know them?
Yeah, from an older case.
Were these priests here the night the boy was killed?
Yes, we've already questioned them about it.
Why is an American agent investigating an Italian case?
Was the boy an American?
No, but he might be tied to criminals that are a threat to the American government.
And it's connected to the case of Amy Boness.
Agent Suskins! You cannot reveal the details of this investigation like that!
These men are different.
And if anything happens, I'll take the fall for it.
I'd actually like you to help us get to the bottom of this investigation.
With pleasure.
We're in need of help as well, with Father Trones gone missing.
Father Trones' dead body was discovered last night.
My God...!
Where?!
In the town of Livorno. He was found frozen to death in a cow shed.
The results of the autopsy revealed he had been exposed to temperatures of -30 degrees.
There was also a hole in the ceiling of the cow shed.
What do you think that means?
From what we saw,
someone must have taken him to the top of the Matterhorn, where he froze to death at 4478 meters,
then threw him off the top, causing him to land in the cow shed.
Who could do something like that?! That clearly breaks the laws of physics!
Hiraga, it was a joke.
It means it's not that easy to deduce.
Now, I'd like the two of you to accompany me to the Tuscany police station.
Huh?
You captured footage of the incident on a camera in your possession.
We need to make sure that wasn't a coincidence.
If it wasn't a coincidence, what is it?
Fate.
The first thing we caught on to was an experienced banker in Seattle.
We've never found such detailed counterfeit hundred dollar bills.
That's the crime that's threatening the U.S. government?
Yes. The bills are already in circulation throughout America.
Chicago, Boston, Las Vegas, New York...
This is a criminal act, economic terrorism, even, that aims to erode faith in the US dollar.
What's wrong?
Well, Father Hiraga found something quite interesting recently.
I see. Codes on advertisements and the Motley Clown?
Still, how is the boy connected to the counterfeiting case?
It's easier to just show you the video.
I'll start it just before the incident happened.
The Motely Clown?
So he's connected to this case, too...
What is he doing here?
He probably came to take the counterfeit note in his hand.
But he wasn't able to take it.
Y-you!
So the boy didn't come in from the outside.
He appeared from the aisle, which meant he was always inside the church.
The same goes for the Decapitating Clown.
So does that mean Father Trones knew about both of them?
It's strange that he disappeared without helping the boy or calling the police.
I'm sure it was a terrifying experience, but still...
In either case, Father Trones spotting them caused the Clown to make a crucial mistake:
he left behind the counterfeit note, and his fingerprints.
So the reason you came all the way here, Agent Suskins, is because...
The fingerprints belong to Julia Michael Borje.
So he is alive after all!
And the organization connected to this incident is Galdoune.
This is a pretty fateful coincidence.
These were the contents of his stomach.
I see legs that would belong to an insect of the class Chilopoda.
I also see undigested specimens of the class Oligochaeta.
In layman's terms?
House centipedes and worms.
My God, why?
Those were likely the only things available for food.
What does all this mean?
We discovered from his blood that he lived in an environment
with no light, low nutrition, and low oxygen.
The only place I can think of would be an underground cave.
I see. That's why we can't figure out where he came from.
A boy living underground and Carlo Zetti...
And Father Trones was present for both of their murders.
Maybe the two really are connected in some way.
"Two"?
You'll have to watch this video of the incident thirty-two years ago.
After watching it, you'll know the place where we all have to go.
There's also someone I'd like you to look for.
Her name is Fioletta Coldwell.
Is she connected to this case?
Probably.
She was living with Carlo's friend Rodriguez.
Understood. I'll get that underway.
Oh, Father Hiraga.
A package has arrived for you from the Vatican.
It's from Lauren.
I wonder if the miracle will happen even in these conditions.
Sixteen degrees Celsius...
It's almost time.
What...?
A special paint called thermocolor paint changes color depending on the temperature.
I found thermocolor paints and the tools used with them
in the late Father Trones' room, with his fingerprints on them.
So the color-changing miracle was actually staged by Father Trones.
It can't be...
Father Trones was trying to hide something with this miracle.
That's why he used thermocolor paint timed with the changing temperature of the room,
and hid it all under the veil of it being a miracle.
Your request for the miracle to be examined was not part of Father Trones' plan.
So can we unravel the mystery of the horn and the light?
Yes. Let's ask Inspector Bufi to send the dust on the floor to Forensics.
Father Hiraga, Father Roberto, everything's ready.
Let's head to the forest.
Alright.
Wait, you're going into the forest?!
Yes, just to look for a demon.
Did you find any hints in the diary we retrieved from Father Trones' room?
Yes, he wrote about the first day the miracle occurred at the church.
"Is what will save me is the karma from controlling a demon passed down from times of old?"
Words with deep meaning.
Trones went missing in his escape from the demon Decapitating Clown, then died.
The forest of the Decapitating Clown...
What an eerie fog.
Alright. the search for the demon starts now.
Be careful, everyone.
If that Decapitating Clown pops out, I'll pump him full of lead.
We've got a thirty-two-year-old video leading the way.
I brought it as a movie file.

I'm hungry again.
It's usually rare for you to forget to eat.
Yes, but all I really want to eat is your cooking, Roberto!
Well then, once we wrap this case up, I'll make you another feast.
You'd better!
