But, even though Sho-an is ready to reduce the body into medical supplies, he is dismayed to discover the body lives.

Asako Minami has a "unique constitution." He senses the lingering thoughts of the deceased and experiences the circumstances under which they died with his own body in a reaction similar to stigmata.
