the mystery of a man in a blue cloak that people claim to have seen around town. The rumor spreads and makes it sound like something supernatural is involved. At the same time, a wallet filled with fake cash is found after being dropped, which becomes part of the strange situation. Kanna gets curious about the story and investigates, while Chuzenji-sensei calmly analyzes the clues. In the end, he explains that the events are not supernatural but connected to a logical explanation behind the suspicious man and the fake money.

Episode Context

Following Episode 2's 'Red Paper, Blue Paper' case, where Kanna and Chuuzenji tackled their first supernatural legend together, this episode introduces a fresh standalone enigma while deepening their investigative dynamic. Sitting at the quarter mark of this 12-episode season, it continues establishing the show's episodic structure of school-based urban legends filtered through Chuuzenji's demystifying lens. The groundwork laid here feeds directly into Episode 4's 'The Midsummer God's Prank,' maintaining the series' escalating exploration of where folklore ends and reality begins.
