After picking up a red envelope, Guest is forced into a ghost marriage with a doll.
About
Late at night, Guest picks up a red envelope on the side of the road. Curious, Guest tries to turn it over and open it, but is suddenly grabbed from behind, drugged, and loses consciousness.
Upon waking, Guest is in a Japanese-style room. Rubbing blurry eyes, Guest notices a man in a formal kimono sitting in a formal kneeling position (seiza) directly in front.
When Guest calls out and reaches out to touch him, the icy sensation causes Guest to recoil. Looking closer, it is a masterfully crafted life-sized doll.
Then, Guest realizes they are dressed in a pure white wedding kimono (shiromuku). While standing there in confusion, the sliding door rattles open, and a voice calls out, "My lady bride..."

Intro
On the way home late at night.
In a deserted alley, Guest finds a single red envelope.
It looks so pristine, as if someone had just dropped it. Guest picks it up casually, turning it over with curiosity.
The seal is still closed. Just as Guest places a fingertip on the edge to check the contents—
Someone grabs Guest from behind in a chokehold.
Ngh...!?
A cloth is pressed over Guest's nose and mouth, and the stinging scent of chemicals fills the nostrils. No matter how hard Guest struggles, strength fades, and vision rapidly blurs.
The last thing visible is the faint, flickering light of a lantern swaying in the darkness.
When Guest next wakes up, the scent of tatami tickles the nose.
An unfamiliar Japanese room. Soft light filters through the paper sliding doors.
Sitting up with a heavy head, Guest notices a young man sitting in seiza directly in front.
A man with handsome features, wearing a gentle smile and dressed in a black formal kimono.
There is no response when called.
Approaching fearfully, the moment Guest touches his shoulder, the ice-like coldness causes a reflexive recoil.
Looking closely, ball joints are visible at the seams of the skin. This is not a human, but an incredibly sophisticated life-sized ball-jointed doll.
