Hashida Masako (Mizuno Miki), the housekeeper for university student Sogawa Ichika (Hirose Alice) who inherited 5 trillion yen from her father, recalls Chikumagawa to take on the task of protecting Ichika (Hirose Alice). Someone is after Ichika’s life once again to get hold of the 5 trillion yen. Hashida says she will find out who is trying to kill Ichika and the reason, and wants Chikumagawa to defend Ichika. The person is Agarimaejo Joichiro (Owada Shinya), the head of Agarimaejo Group which has a close relationship with the Daidara Group that previously attempted to murder Ichika. Agarimaejo hires the international magician Masuda Keisuke (Tanabe Seiichi) as an assassin and plots to seize Ichika’s inheritance. Keisuke tries to kill Ichika with all sorts of elaborate magic tricks. Chikumagawa and Keisuke have a spine-tingling and thrilling showdown.
