How To Solve The Netherworld Case In Urban Myth Dissolution Center

In the previous episode of Urban Myth Dissolution Center, you investigated the Bloody Mary case, discovering whether saying Mary three times in a mirror truly summoned a ghost. Few things are as terrifying as Bloody Mary, but real-life fears can be just as unsettling—like getting lost in an unfamiliar place.

Being alone, unsure of what you might encounter, is frightening. In this episode, Azami joins a tour where participants mysteriously disappear. What happens to them? Why do they vanish? To uncover the truth, join the tour—and let our guide help.

After concluding the Bloody Mary case, this new case begins with a connection to the Illuminae Cards. The term Great Reset is related to the Countdown screen, and after discussing it with Director Meguriya, he will assign you a new case. This one involves joining a tour—undercover. While in the car with Jasmine, as always, you’ll need to conduct social media research.

Your goal is to find four clues about the Ueno Occult & Dark Tour:

1. Select the comment starting with “This tour is not just invite-only, it’s held randomly.” to obtain the first clue.
2. Click on the main post featuring the tour’s promotional image, then use your glasses to obtain the Occult & Dark keyword.
3. Select the bottommost comment and use your glasses to obtain the selected keyword.
4. Click on the comment stating “They’re doing that tour with the wild rumors!? I wanna go! How do you apply?!!!” and use your glasses to obtain the wild rumors keyword.

6. Click on the comment starting with “Yamada Gasmask…” to obtain the second clue.
7. Click on the comment starting with “People think it’s a lie that you get an invite DM, but it’s not.” to obtain the third clue.
8. Click on the comment stating “Isn’t Occult & Dark infamous for people going missing or meeting misfortune?” to obtain the final clue.

Shinobazu Pond – Find Four Clues

After completing your social media research, you and Jasmine will arrive at Shinobazu Pond, where you’ll see the participants of the mystery tour. Once the tour begins, the guide will instruct you to find a four-digit code. First, you need to collect four clues:
