Higurashi: When They Cry - Cat Killing Chapter

After losing a fiercely contested poker game, Keiichi Maebara, Rena Ryuuguu, Mion Sonozaki, Satoko Houjou, and Rika Furude are stuck paying the price: a walk through town in full costume. Eager to keep the embarrassment to a minimum, Keiichi persuades everyone to head out to Yagouchi, a neighboring village that’s said to be deserted.

There, Mion brings up an abandoned quarry nearby—an offhand detail that immediately draws Keiichi and Rena’s curiosity. But as Mion recounts the unsettling incidents linked to the site, what starts as a simple detour turns into a tense discussion over whether exploring the quarry is a risk worth taking.
