Was the disappearance of Teppei's corpse ever explained? There are several valid blue truths, but none of them are confirmed to be the right answer as far as I know.

Mion using her influence to move the body somewhere else is the most popular theory. And it was hinted at in Tsumihoroboshi, when Mion and the others helped Rena hide the dismembered bodies. But how the fuck did Mion know where Teppei was buried if she was at the festival? I doubt she sent people to spy on K1 as he killed Teppei.

Another theory is that Takano knew about the murder and had the yamainu get rid of it. She can't have the police investigating a murder in the village when she's planning to gas everyone in a few days. She also seemed to know about the murder, even though she pretended it was a joke. She even threatened K1 before leaving.

The third theory is that K1 spent so much time planning the murder and digging the first hole while reflecting on his life, that he simply forgot about the second hole he had to improvise when Teppei made him run too far away. When he woke up the next morning, he had forgotten most of the details of that surreal night, including the fact that he had to dig a second hole after the murder, and was convinced that he buried Teppei in the first hole. That's why he couldn't find the body. He was searching in the wrong place. It makes sense that he would forget about the details, he wasn't even sure if the events of that night had been real or just a dream.
