The downpour poured down.
It was as if the celestial river had burst its banks, water cascading from the heavens in a roaring torrent.
Beneath the streetlights shattered by the rain, dim pillars of light cut off the curtain of rain outside—and blocked every prying gaze from beyond.

"I've seen it."
After a moment of contemplation, a man with an exaggerated-looking Sniper Rifle slung across his back spoke up.

"Is there a solution, or not?"
The captain was the first to ask.
"...No solution."
After thinking for a moment, the man gave his answer.
"At least, until the movie ended, I never saw any sign of the incident being resolved. This horror movie is a genuine mind-over-matter type. To put it simply, it's about a University Student who returned home and encountered a series of horrifying events in this town... the really hopeless kind."
"The ending?"
"There is no ending."
Facing his Teammates' gazes, the man shook his head.
"The so-called [Infinite] means endless and eternal, like a Mobius Ring whose beginning and end are connected. There is no beginning, nor is there an end. There is only the endless despair spreading throughout this town."
As he said this, the man's expression turned solemn.
"Be careful, everyone. An A-rank mission isn't easy to clear. While I think this movie is definitely difficult enough to qualify as A-rank, what if the plot has changed? There's no telling.
