Summary of Undead Murder Farce episode 3
The previous episode continued at the mansion of the vampire Lord Godard, where Aya, Tsugaru, and Shizuku were conducting their investigation. The episode began at the dining table, where Godard's son, Claude, expressed that he was not entirely convinced about the detectives' abilities. Godard himself was confident and willing to let them continue their investigation.
Aya continued to question Godard at the dining table. It was revealed that on the day of Hannah's murder, which took place at half past one, the family had finished their meal at half past midnight.
Then, Hannah retired to her room to rest for a while. Meanwhile, Godard and Claude got engrossed in a discussion about the management of the town, while Charlotte was present in the same room, playing. Later, at around one, Godard left for hunting along with his other son, Raoul.
As Aya continued to question everyone in the room, it became clear to the Godard family that she suspected one of them to have committed the murder. Before departing, she disclosed that she had narrowed the list of suspects down to Alfred and Claude, which was met with objections.
Later, Claude even resorted to menacing Tsugaru and Aya for their role in his incrimination.
That night, while Shizuku kept a watchful eye on the servants, Tsugaru and Aya accompanied Godard to the forest. There, Godard was ambushed by a vampire hunter named Josef, although Godard neutralized him with ease. Godard intended to kill Josef, claiming self-defense, but Aya intervened.
Aya interrogated Josef and learned that another vampire hunter, Hugo, had formed a powerful alliance to take down Godard.
However, Hugo's plan backfired, and he was killed by the vampire. This led Josef to seek vengeance. Aya chose to release Josef, and the episode concluded with her declaring that it was time to reveal the real murderer.
What to expect from Undead Murder Farce episode 4?
