Story
In the winter of 1996, 19-year-old Kudo Junichi ended his life in front of his house clutching a letter he had written to his chest. “Dad, I’m free. Farewell.” At that time, the investigation made little headway and it became an unsolved case. Information about this case was stashed in a warehouse of the Kanagawa Prefectural Police as “unsent”. Time passes. In the spring of 2015, detective Ishikawa Yuri of the Kanagawa Prefectural Police’s First Investigative Division is at the site of the murder of a mother and child that occurred in Yokohama City when she is contacted about a guest. The person waiting for her at the Kanagawa Prefectural Police headquarters is a female foreigner. This woman begins by telling her that she saw the murder in January 1996. This is new evidence about the dumping of Kudo’s dead body the case 19 years ago. Deciding that the case should be reinvestigated, Yuri begins to investigate the case and seek new evidence with Tachikawa Daisuke, Kaneko Toru and the newly transferred Takagi Shinjiro under the instructions of deputy division chief Motoki Hidetoshi. The First Investigative Division displays great teamwork to reveal the hidden truth in many unsolved cases.
