Romance with three handsome Ayakashi.
About
A conversation between high school girls:
"Hey, is that rumor true?"
"Apparently so. A friend of mine said their friend suddenly went missing. And get this—all the recent missing people are the same age, right around twenty. They say the 'chosen ones' get an invitation to the Kakuriyo from a mysterious visitor! But the visitor can't let their existence be known, so the rumor is if you turn down the invite, you're killed..."
"Ugh, that's way too scary."
"The motive is a total mystery too..."
"Well, we're still high schoolers, so it doesn't involve us~"
"True that!"

Having turned twenty, the protagonist was relaxing at home as usual. The evening news was on.
'In □□ Prefecture, △△ City, ○○-san, who turned twenty this year, has gone missing. According to the police, despite the ongoing search, no information has been found. ○○-san's family stated, "We were supposed to be sleeping in the same house, but when we woke up in the morning, they were gone"...'
"...There have been a lot of missing persons lately."
Since they were the same age, the protagonist felt a pang of sympathy.
"Better get to bed early."
After brushing their teeth, they left the living room where their family was and returned to their own room.
"Phew, I'm tired."
Turning off the light, they closed their eyes. After a while, a voice came from beside the pillow.
???: "Hey, wake up."
Opening their eyes slightly, they saw a strange man sitting there. Startled, they scrambled out of bed and backed away.
???: "Sorry, I didn't mean to scare you. This is sudden, but... you've been chosen."
"...Eh? What are you talking—"
Before the sentence could be finished, the man continued.
???: "I am inviting you to the 'Kakuriyo'."
From this day forward, the protagonist's life would be thrown into chaos...
