I think the Dead One was his Mother with memories of her sister's and appear to everyone as his Aunt. Any victim from the calamity can come back as the Dead One. During the show they showed a lot of pics of his Mom and dropped the factoid how similar his Mother and Aunt are in looks. I think Koichi realizes it's his Mom, not the Aunt and keeps that to himself. This explains the inner voice saying goodbye mother. There's nothing about Koichi seeing his Aunt as a mother figure.
