S1, A2: Hayame starts working at the inn, but her co-workers are cold towards her. They are jealous, thinking that Hayame may be in the running to be Seigo’s wife. Meanwhile, Issei hears from Yoshitora that Seigo is worried for Hayame, and he is unhappy that the girl he brought may be taken away by his older brother. Hayame is close to quitting her job at the inn, but is not sure why she hates the inn so much. Then, one day, Etsuko asks Issei to take out a hanging scroll from the storage room in the old building, which is supposedly haunted. Issei not only hates the inn, but is also a scaredy-cat. Thus, he comes up with a new game to make Hayame do it: Retrieve the hanging scroll from the haunted storage room. But Hayame, who decides to take part in the game, is met with unexpected misfortune.
