Synopsis
Katsumata Kengo a 24 year old gyaruo, who has been suffering from his penis turning into a Chikuwa fishcake, comes to Ramune, a doctor specializing in this kind of disease, which cannot be solved by current medical science. He was referred to Ramune by a nearby general hospital. When Katsumata says that he would like a temporary fix, Ramune offers him a mysterious tool for treatment.

Plot
Due to stress or obsession, people are afflicted by something "mysterious" and develop a "mysterious disease". The mysterious cannot be seen by normal people, however there are doctors that can cure them. "Mysterious disease specialists" expose the secret cause hidden in the people's hearts and save them.

Katsumata's penis has turned into a chikuwa fishcake. He visits a nearby hospital and is then referred to Dr Ramune, who is dismaying over the fact that a girl he likes has a boyfriend completly ignoring him until Kuro hits him over the head. Ramune then explains that this is the work of the "Mysterious"; something halfway between a rare disease and a supernatural phenomenon, and that he specializes in curing such things.

Ramune asks Katsumata if he knows the reason for his disease, Katsumata denies possessing such knowledge when Kuro notices a ring on his ring finger. Katsumata then demands that Ramune do something to help his condition, at which the doctor replies it could take a week, month or worst a year to do so. At this point his patient comments that he doesn't care for treatment because he needs to see a girl later that day and asks for a temporary fix.

At his request, Ramune smiles creeply and orders Kuro to bring him something from the left of the third row of the red shelf, that something is the Furoshiki wrapping cloth. He demonstrates it's ability by writting on his arm, then covering it with the cloth hidding the writting, rendering the writting invisible. H e explains that whatever you choose to hide with the cloth will be concealed with lies. Katsumata happily takes the cloth and phones (one of) his girlfiend confirming that he will be coming on the date they agreed on.

After Kastumata leaves, Kuro tells Ramune that this wasn't the best course of action, at which Ramune remarkes that it was his choices whilst bandaging his burned and flaming red arm that was previously wrapped by the cloth.

Ramune and Kuro go get dinner at a restaurant where they are welcomed by a kind and attractive waitress who Ramune immedtiatly formes a crush on, the waitress ask of thhe nature of Ramune's and Kuro's relationship, at which he says that Kuro is his assistant.

After indulging in a conversation with the waitress they learn Katsumata is her boyfriend, this stikes Kuro as weird since he earlier said he'll be going on a date, yet she is still at the restaurant. The shot cuts to Katsumata walking out of the Sleep Koala love hotel with a different girl, when the girl leaves he takes of the ring he was wearing and puts on a different one when Kaori, a third girl meets him infront of the hotel and they walk in together.

Katsumata is having a dream of his first meeeting with the waitress, as his friends are mocking him for getting caught cheating again and subsequently getting punched, when the waitress walks up to him and gives him some ice to put on his bruise. Through some flashbacks we learn that he gave her a ring that she wears as a necklace, as she considers her ring finger hifghly important and would only wear it if he would commit to an actual relationship. He then wakes up and goes to the bathroom only to notice that the chikuwa that became his penis is rotting.

Ramune and Kuro are having some chikuwa of their own, when Katsumata interrupts their meal. He accuses Ramune of lying to him, which Ramune denies saying he never claimed it would cure him, and accuses Katsumata of having enjoyed himself with the cloth's concealment ability, and that it is only natural that he should now pay the price. When Katsumata asks what the price is, Ramune answers that is is equivalent to all the lies he had told, Katsumata falls to the ground crying, Ramune continues by telling him that his penis will rot right off, furthermore if he uses the cloth to hide the fact his penis fell off, he'll lose even more.

At this point, Katsumata begins pleading with Ramune, saying he'll do anything to be cured. At this, Ramune orders him to put on all 7 rings he had for the 7 girls hez was playing at the same time, when he does so Ramune stabes him in the crotch with a hypodermic needle to remove the "Mysterious" and injects back into his ring finger.
