Summay
Tsujimura nags Ayatsuji to hurriedly write his report about the church incident. After a while, Ayatsuji finishes his written report. Tsujimura reads the report and notices the last section off the report which says the last line spoken by the culprit. Tsujimura suggests that there maybe another person behind the incident and how when they searched the culprit's house, they found no evidence of his planning. Ayatsuji adds that the culprit's phone records went blank and that someone must have help him considering that the crime requires expert knowledge - an instigator.

Ayatsuji asks if the culprit made contact with someone that time. Tsujimura responds that twelve days ago, the culprit ate dinner at his usual spot and he got lost a little on his way home and took a rural route that had nothing but barns and wells. After some thinking, Ayatsuji stands up and clarifies with Tsujimura about the culprit being on the road with access to the wells. Tsujimura clarifies it and asks what about of it. Tsujimura follows Ayatsuji on his basement which houses his collection of dolls. Ayatsuji sits on a chair and does a deep thinking.

Ayatsuji then remembers that three nights ago, he stumbled upon a gossip magazine with an article about a certain well which tells about it along the lines of "the well that turns you evil, make a wish in front of it, and divinely granted evil will be bestowed upon you". Ayatsuji then orders Tsujimura to get a work request from the Special Division for Unusual Powers if she wants to uncover the truth and they will set off to find the well.
