ONE: Tsukumojuku
Jorge Joestar is an eleven year old boy living on La Palma with his mother, Erina, and Elizabeth Straizo (also known as Lisa Lisa). Jorge recalls the countless times he's been bullied by his Spaniard classmates, including how they just tried to shove dog waste in his mouth as he was on his way home from school. Luckily, Lisa Lisa was always there to save him and constantly beat up Antonio Torres, the boy who led the gang of bullies.
Jorge cries when he returns home and Erina gives him a stern talk. He discovers that Lisa Lisa will be leaving them to go live in Italy with her adopted father Straizo, when she turns twelve. While Jorge refuses to accept it at first, a strong speech from Erina and seeing Lisa Lisa cry for the first time convinces him to be brave. He becomes determined to stand up to his bullies and beat them up on his own. The next morning, Jorge tries to avoid Antonio's gang so he goes to school very early and hides in a storage room. He soon discovers his plan was for naught, as when he goes to class, he is immediately interrogated by Julio, one of his bullies. Antonio was murdered that morning, and Julio was accusing either Jorge or Lisa Lisa to be the suspect because both of them had left their house early, and Lisa Lisa wasn't at school yet. As Julio continues to harass Jorge, their teacher, Mr.Hernandez, enters the room and tells Julio and the other bullies of Jorge to be ashamed of themselves. Julio reveals that Antonio died by being crushed to death, leaving him flat as a sheet of skin with no blood, no muscle, and no bones.
Tsukumojuku Kato, Jorge's only Asian classmate, suddenly enters the room. He was a child detective, and had been eavesdropping on the conversation. Declaring that he had already solved the case, he brings out Antonio's "corpse". The sheet of skin was a work of art by Antonio's mother, Maria Torres, who carefully peeled off pieces of her son's skin to make This Year's Antonio. She had been making one a year since Antonio was a baby, and thus his body would adapt to the loss of skin by speeding up his skin cell production three days before Maria's customary skinning day. Jorge ponders whether the real Antonio is still alive and Tsukumojuku opens the door, telling the person standing there to enter. Although the person looked like Antonio, Jorge could tell he was actually dead.
Lisa Lisa steps out of Antonio's skin and introduces herself to the class. She says the person who murdered Antonio is nearby, and Lisa Lisa had worn his skin to lure the murderer to the police. Lisa Lisa describes four rules that her classmates must follow in order to stay safe, warning them that they must be home before sundown, and need to stay there with their doors and windows shut until sunrise. Tsukumojuku then states that Lisa Lisa's plan had worked, and the sunlight-hating killer was already in the school. Jorge notices that the hallway had turned dark and gloomy, before spotting Mr. Hernandez close the curtains. Lisa Lisa reveals that since she was a baby, she had special breathing powers like her adopted father and Jorge's father. As Mr. Hernandez clutches the last curtain, he is killed by the sunlight and his body crumbles into dust. Jorge states that Mr. Hernandez had been human while he was with them in class, so he must have been turned into that creature by the murderer of Antonio, who had forced him to close the curtains.
Lisa Lisa, Jorge, and Tsukumojuku walk down the hall and are confronted by a man who looks like Antonio, standing on the ceiling. The man's name is Alejandro Torres, and he asks if they've seen his son. Alejandro had already eaten Antonio in the morning but then heard he went to school afterwards. Lisa Lisa argues with the man and he decides to kill her, but is destroyed by Lisa Lisa's Indigo Blue Overdrive. As an attempt to be brave, Jorge unexpectedly runs in front of her at that moment to Lisa Lisa's surprise, and is also knocked out by the attack. Jorge wakes up the next morning on his bed and talks to Straizo, who explains that the remains of Antonio and Alejandro had been cleaned up, and other monsters on the island were destroyed. Jorge asks if he has a power like Lisa Lisa's, but realizes he doesn't want it because he would be too scared to fight. Straizo cheers him up, and says he was brave enough to act in the fight against Alejandro.
Tsukumojuku soon comes to visit Jorge and the two become best friends. Tsukumojuku talks about how he had a Beyond, but it abandoned him. Jorge just thinks he's delusional. When it is time for Lisa Lisa to leave, she jokes about marrying Jorge and they both say they love each other. For the next four years, Tsukumojuku and Jorge go on detective adventures and solve many mysteries. When he turns 15, Tsukumojuku has to go back to Japan and Jorge cries a lot about being alone. Jorge declares that he would come to Japan in the future and they could go solve more mysteries. However, two months later, the boat Tsukumojuku had left on is found at the bottom of the sea by the army.
Chapter 2: Nishi Akatsuki
Joji Joestar lives in Nishi Akatsuki in 2012, in an alternative universe to Jorge where the entire world is one continent named Panlandia, similar to Panchea. He's just finished solving 15 locked room murders and caught two serial killers. Joji realises the 15 murders are laid out in a grid pattern, with one space left blank. He comes to the conclusion that all the murders were set up by one person and heads off to investigate the blank space, where he finds a house on fire.
Joji discovers the house is filled with sea water, and someone is trapped inside. Joji rescues him and discovers the mans name is Tsukumojuku Kato. The last thing he remembers is spotting the coast of Florida. Even stranger, the family who owned the house share the same last name and address as him. Tsuku is deeply confused by his situation.
Joji brings Tsuku to hospital and explains the history of their world. Tsuku realises the Bermuda Triangle in his world is right on top of Japan in Jojis. He believes he was summoned by someone. Joji and Tsuku compare their locked room cases. In Tsukus world, he and Jorge caught the Locked Room Maestro, Javier Cortez, who appeared in people's dreams as a clown and tortured them until they snapped. Javier was only caught after a young girl with a pathological fear of clowns told her parents about him, and he was beaten to death by police.
Joji decides to follow up on the dream angle and offhandedly mentions a mission to Mars. Tsuku believes Javiers dream powers were caused by trauma, such as how Antonios mothers skin peeling gave him the ability to molt. Tsuku also mentions how he brought Antonios skin with him, but it's now gone missing. He then goes on to explain how he believes 'Beyond' is preparing Jorge and Joji for a greater purpose. Not long after, Joji gets a call from his policeman friend, revealing all the killers saw a man named Kira Yoshikage in their dreams who told them to warn Joji not to come to Morioh, or he'd kill him.
Tsuku and Joji part ways, and he heads off to Manhatten Island, one of the three tips of the Bermuda Triangle. The next day, his corpse is found in Morioh. Furious, Joji heads to Morioh to solve Tsukus murder.
THREE: Wounds
Jorge has taken up reading since Tsukumojuku disappeared. Erina hires the girl who cracked the locked room cases, Penelope De La Roza, to tutor him. One day, at 1:30 in the morning, Penelope comes running to Jorge, yelling about how Javier is back and how he tried to kill her mother in a locked room. She believes he's returned due to seeing a clown appear in the room as she burst in.
Jorge brings Penelope to Erina, only to find that the door is locked and a clown is apparently inside. As Jorge breaks in and sees the clown, the door locks behind him. Luckily, the clown doesn't harm them, and Jorge quickly realises that, similar to Antonio and Javier, Penelope's trauma has led to her gaining a mysterious power to create locked rooms around people.
Jorge helps Penelope control her power, which he dubs a Wound, for a while, until Penelope asks him to follow her to work. On the way, they meet Edvard Noriega, her ex boyfriend. Edvard seems terrified about something called "The Mothman" which he saw at the end of his bed. Penelope refuses to believe him, and furiously creates a locked room out of the gravel. As Edvard yells for help, Jorge breaks into the room to see him hanging from a grass rope, which quickly happens to Jorge too. Jorge manages to break the room by carving "MURDER" into his chest, so the police can't call it a suicide.
At the doctors, Jorge is told the mark is permanent. Lisa Lisa and Penelope meet and Lisa Lisa asks the doctor about The Mothman, who a lot of people, including the doctor, are seeing in their rooms. Apparently he was told to "Close your eyes, lie down and think about tomorrow". Lisa Lisa tells him to lock his doors and hide.
At the Joestar house, Straits and Erina tell Jorge and Penelope the story of what happened to Jonathan and how ever since Dios defeat, zombies have been appearing in many places, including La Palma. Lisa Lisa questions Erina about something she brought with her while in the coffin, which Erina reveals to be Jonathan's decapitated head. Jorge mentions that, for the first time, he's scared of his mother.
Chapter 4: Morioh
Joji arrives in Morioh with a feeling of deja vu. It's election season between Kumoi Takumi and Shishimura Denta. After exploring town, he heads to the Arrow Cross House to check the body. The buildings owner, Rohan Kishibe, brings Joji up to the house, but when Joji refers to him as "Kishibe-sensei", Rohan uses Heavens Door to force him to call him "Rohan", though since Joji can't see Stands, he just feels strange.
Rohan tells the story of Arrow Cross, and how it seemingly appeared out of nowhere, without any permits and somehow removing the old house, Cube House, without anyone noticing. Rohan reveals two other detectives were murdered before Joji arrived as well, being arranged to resemble a Japanese folk tale. Rohan brings Joji in and shows him around, before revealing the crime scene: Tsukumojuku was tied to a large stuffed bear and had his throat slit.
Joji realises the bear was a polar bear. Rohan mentions how he somehow fell asleep in the wrong bedroom, despite both rooms being reversed mirror images of each other. He also reveals he has a guest over, a girl with amnesia named Sugimoto Reimi. Joji then reveals the polar bear was already in the room when Rohan went to sleep. After clipping the brown fur off the bear, Rohan is shocked to discover the bear is now invisible due to the sunlight and the room being completely white. Joji also realises the location of the three detective murders on Moriohs map lines up with the Bermuda Triangle on a world map.
Rohan explains Stands to Joji, and how anyone in town could have used a long range power to kill Tsuku. He then points out that he looked in the sunroom at night and saw no bear, meaning the killer would have no time to move the bear in. When Joji tries to ask about Kira, he finds himself unable to speak. Rohan reveals he used Heavens Door to stop Joji saying Kiras name, or Bites The Dust would activate. Just then, the doorbell rings. Rohan laments that some "pains in his ass" are back and asks Joji to get rid of them. As Rohan leaves the room, he tells Reimi to leave, but Joji doesn't see anyone else.
Joji heads outside and meets three boys. When the smallest asks why he's in Arrow Cross, Joji says Rohan let him in, prompting an angry response from one of the larger boys, who grabs him by the neck with his Stand and reveals Rohan's been missing for two weeks. Joji realises they can't see Rohan but can see Reimi, even though for him it's the opposite. As the boy accuses him of being Kira, he vanishes, prompting the other large boy to threaten Joji. As he winds up, Joji realises Fukashigi and Rohan were placed under Arrow Cross by Reimi in a vacuum to avoid Bites The Dust destroying them, and that the reason he can't see her is because she's a Stand with no master, capable of moving Arrow Cross.
Rohans ghost (?) uses Heavens Door on Joji so he can see Stands. The boys introduce themselves and their Stands: Muryotaisu Nijimura and Grand Blue, three dolphins, Fukashigi Nijimura and NYPD Blue, a detective and a "New Yorker to the core", and Kouji Hirose and Blue Thunder, a propeller on his head he uses to fly. Joji has Rohan let the boys see astral projections so they can see Rohan again and has Reimi rotate the house, revealing the reason Rohan couldn't see the bear was because the house was the wrong way around. On top of that, Arrow Cross is Cube House, just with extra rooms, meaning Reimi evolved somehow.
At that point, Arrow Cross begins shaking. As it turns out, Morioh has split off from the mainland and the house has become a compass as it begins floating across the sea. Rohan then reveals Jojis book was listed as a forgery and his true life-Jorge Joestars-is also in him.
