A collection of short stories commemorating the 30th anniversary of the debut of the new real-life reasoning master Ayatsuji Yukito.
A legend about the "Red Cloak" caused panic on campus, and the consequences of answering the wrong question would be disastrous. The two girls came to the supernatural public toilet together, but they did not expect to hear a horrifying whisper: "Do you want to wear a red cloak?"... Four young people visited the ruined beachside villa "Xingyue Villa", but encountered horrific attacks one after another. Various signs showed that the real culprit behind the murder did not seem to be human...
Each story is full of suspense, like playing an intellectual game with the readers. I think his works are a bit like Keigo Higashino, in that they appear to be ordinary but have hidden mysteries. Moreover, the characters in the book are very vivid, and their actions and decisions are thought-provoking. I especially like this kind of mystery novel that makes me use my brain. It feels like I am competing with the author in a battle of wits and courage.
