Seven Mysteries Of Fudo High

This article is about the fictional urban legends in The Kindaichi Case Files episode Smoke and Mirrors. The Seven Mysteries of Fudo High is a set of curses said to revolve around mysterious deaths and disappearances at the north campus building of Fudo High.

The Seven Curses

Legend of the Evil Thirteen Steps
A student was once looking for his friend in the old campus building. As he went down the stairs, he knew that they were supposed be twelve steps. As soon as he reaches the last step, he counted thirteen and found his friend dead.
Abandoned Biology Lab
One evening, a teacher told his female student to change a light bulb at night using a candle as the only source of light. She lost her balance and hanged herself with a part of her uniform. When the professor came to check on her, he only found hanging body illuminated by the candlelight. Unexplanable events happened some time later. When the Biology Lab lost power, a professor that was grading papers lit a candle and saw the same hanging body from before. As soon as the power was back on, the body disappeared.
The Boy and the Severed Hand
In the old printing room, a student accidentally cut off his hand with the paper-cutting machine. He was rushed to the hospital but died at arrival. The school and the police tried to find the severed hand but could never find it. Ever since, it is said that people can hear the sound of a boy crying in pain and see the severed hand crawling around.
The Gingko Tree
There was once a student who was being bullied and ended up hanging himself at a Gingko with a manji engraved on its bark. It is said once in a while the hanging body reappears and disappears at night.
Goddess of Wisdom
A student was crushed by a tumbled goddess statue. Every now and then, the crushed body is said to reappear at night covered in blood.
Blood-stained Well
A student fell deep inside a well and it became filled with blood.
Bloody Reflection
There was once a music student who accidentally fell into a glass door in the instrument storage room and died immediately. After that, it is said a reflection of a bloody body is shown on the glass door.

The Truth of the Seven Mysteries

(Reveals the ending of this mystery! Proceed at your own risk!)
In reality, these are fabrications created by a teacher in the school, who used to be a scientist for a drug company. Once, the company acquired six volunteers/test subjects, but their experiment failed, resulting in their death. Panicked, the researchers decided to hide their bodies, but the research building was converted to the school grounds of Fudo High. So, they embedded the bodies in numerous places around the school buildings, and spread horror stories about the locations of the bodies, hopeing it would be enough to drive the students and teachers away. The last legend was created ten years before this story, when a girl who knew too much was killed by one of the teachers. Just as before, her body was embedded into a wall in the music room, and a legend was placed upon the location. The Seven mysteries were revived when the school wanted to tear down the old building, and fearing exposure of the bodies, the teacher sent a threatening letter to the principle under the guise of "Afterschool Magician." Unfortunately, the Mystery Club decided to investigate on the seven mysteries and got too close to the truth, forcing the teacher to kill off the Mystery Club members and those that got too close to the bodies. Kindaichi discovered this when he found out originally there were only six legends, and all the recent victims were discovered relatively far away from where the legends take place.
