A man who committed a mortal sin. He was a common worker who carried bags of corn during hours. One day an Asian man begged him for food not having eaten for five straight days. The man became angry at the beggar and made him carry the corn bags in exchange for his food. The beggar was crushed by the heavy bags. His spirit swore revenge on the man that was to come at his happiest moment. After that the man had great luck. He received money from relatives and had the idea to process corn into corn flakes and popcorn. The idea was a big hit and he became a rich man the master of a mansion with several servants. He married a model and they eventually had a daughter. However he still feared the beggars curse. He found a servant willing to do anything for him and they had plastic surgery to switch their faces. Suddenly the spirit of the beggar possessed the mans daughter and revealed that he assisted the mans prosperity from behind the scenes so that he could fulfill his vow of taking the mans life at his happiest moment. The man rushed to interfere but he was knocked out by the spirit. The servant fell victim to the spirit who was fooled by their changed faces. The man later goes to a confession booth to confess his sins as he was responsible for the deaths of two people. He confesses to Rohan Kishibe who had mistakenly entered the priest side to research the church. As the man exits the booth it is revealed that the spirits of the beggar and the beheaded servant both vow to watch him around the clock to make sure that he does not do anything suspicious again. Rohan watches with curiosity deciding to interview him later if given the chance.
