The Flower Named Ran
At an utter loss for how to spend their Golden Week vacation, Rui proposes that Hayate Village be visited in order to investigate the legend of a local sorceress wielding the Emahi grass for the purpose of controlling people. Ran receives images from someone in the town of an unresolved injustice. Ran, Rui, and Midori accompany Ran's father and brother to the village. Once there, strange things happen such as villagers coming to attack Ran, Rui and Midori. As Ran and Rui are out looking for more clues, Midori stays behind. A man comes by looking for Ronpei's (Ran's father) friend Takizawa, but he's out with Ran and the others. Ran continues to hear voices as the man from earlier gets into a car accident not far from the house. Midori warns Ran to be careful as the village is very dangerous.
Ran, Telepathy!
Ran Isozaki is a young girl entering junior-high school with her childhood friend Rui Ayase. Ran starts hearing the voice of a mysterious girl one day of various warnings. Strange events start happening around town, and Ran tells Rui about the voice she hears. Rui is not surprised as he recounts another occasion when it was obvious Ran could hear voices and it is explained why Ran has two cats at home (a younger Ran discovering two abandoned kittens in the park). In addition to the voice, Ran sees images of the girl's childhood and her mother calling her a freak before abandoning her. At school, Ran's nice home-room teacher Momoko Ōhara introduces the mysterious girl as a transfer student named Midori Naha. Taking the vacant seat at the back, Midori telepathically tells Ran that making friends is a waste of time. Midori begins to test Ran's abilities, and ends up remonstrating with her, revealing Ran's powers of telekinesis in the process. They both also discover that Rui has the ability to stay Ran's unrefined powers.
Ran, Runs!
Even while completely unprepared for a test, Ran answers all the questions right, making her friend Saeko both astonished and anguished. As she pursues Saeko, Ran unknowingly hears her internal voice and attempts to explain the test. Unfortunately, Ran's explanation prompts the frightened Saeko (who had not yet vocalized her thoughts) to call her a freak for reading her mind. Midori continues her telepathic exchanges with Ran and warnings to her about what will happen if her powers are discovered. Saeko is silently abducted from the school library, and Ran is surprised that she still cannot hear Rui's thoughts. Ran and Rui are disrupted by a controlled dog attacking the pair, and Rui grabs the controller's her arm which amplifies Ran's powers so much that they stun the dog and break the control. Ran's pursuit of the masked figure onto the bridge prompts an encounter with Midori who taunts Ran with warnings that she will be called a monster by others. After Ran retorts that Rui still likes her even with her telepathic powers, Midori is taken aback and flees. As Ran's brother Rin is priding himself on partially solving the mysterious cases plaguing the town (external mind control being the common thread), Ran somehow detects Rui's successful abduction and races to his aid with Rin in tow.

The Wind Called Forth by Ran
Ran and the others find the Emahi grass they were looking for, and Ran almost gets into an accident. The man who got in the car accident, Nakai, goes to the hospital, and Ran, Rui, and Midori go to his room to ask him questions. They find clues in his belongings and discover their old teacher Ōhara is in the center of the recent strange occurrences. Ran hears the voices from the Emahi grass and goes into the forest with the others in tow. Midori is attacked by the grass and nearly dies, but Ran unexpectedly uses her power to save Midori. Afterwards, the Emahi grass wilts and disappears; their teacher leaves shortly after.
Ran, Going to the Haunted Hot Springs
After hearing reports of a haunted inn, Rin goes with Ran, Rui, and Midori to the inn to investigate the rumors. The manager of the inn seeks the help of Ran to get rid of the ghosts. Midori uses her powers to see the memories of the manager, and learns more about a man that died a couple months ago. A man is coming to buy the inn from him and his mother tomorrow, but he does not want to sell. Midori and Ran continue to investigate the ghosts, and find clues of how someone could make people think ghosts were around due to hidden passages near the outdoor bath. While there, they actually do see a couple ghosts, however.
Ran and the Steamy Ghost Case
Ran and the others continue to investigate the ghosts and gain access to the detached wing where the old man died a couple months back. Rui uncovers several clues as to what actually happened. When the man, Shiroyama, comes to buy the inn, Midori and Rui lead in trying to uncover his involvement in the death. Ultimately, they find out how he was behind the man's death, and he's taken away by the police. The ghost rumors of the inn fade away shortly after.
Ran's Master Plan to Become Friends
Ran is excited about being with Rui over the summer, and on the way home from school accidentally runs into a girl from her school; Ran sees some of her memories in the process, making Ran concerned about her. It turns out the girl will be moving away soon. Ran's classmate Yamashita receives a letter which is read by a couple bullies in class. Yamashita tears up the letter without reading it himself. Ran pieces together the letter and gives it back to Yamashita. Using her powers, Ran learns about his relationship with the girl from before. Ran and Midori use their powers to interfere further by manipulating a doll in Yamashita's home and try to push him to do something before the girl moves away. This drives him to seek her out that night and properly says goodbye.
Ran, Finding God
Ran goes out with Rui and Midori (against her previous wishes) and the three find a traveler's deity in a hidden path after Ran and Rui fall down a small embankment. Ran hears a voice from the statue, prompting the three to research the things he, Iratsuko Kashiwaba, talks about regarding the sakura of Onju. Iratsuko wants to meet a girl there, Iratsume. They go to the library and meet an old man who tells them the sakura of Onju is actually close to the library. The three leave and find the sakura of Onju's tree stump. After placing the statue down, Ran, Rui and Midori witness the reunion of Iratsuko and Iratsume.
Ran and Midori and Summer Vacation
Ran goes out on her normal morning run and runs into Midori; Ran invites her to the town's summer festival, but she does not want to go if Rin will not be there. Ran and Rui go out together to buy Ran a new kimono, and while out Ran tries to phone Midori several times to try to get her to come to the festival later, but Midori's been out all day. When she gets home, Midori listens to Ran's humorous messages and unexpectedly meets up with Ran at the festival later when the fireworks are going off.
