Synopsis
An explosion occurs at a chemical factory and Saiki Yasuo, a long-time employee dies. The First Investigative Division determines that it was an accident that resulted from Saiki’s negligence, but Ebina Maiko suspects that it is a criminal case from the circumstances. Unhappy that an investigation task force will not be set up, she corners her superior Sawa Shunichi and the others. While Maiko was examining the scene of the blast, Saiki’s wife Kaoru, who is also an employee at the same factory, had told her that her husband would not do such a careless thing. Maiko conveys this and insist on a reinvestigation, but Nozaki decides that it will be classified as an accident and ignores Maiko. A disgruntled Maiko hands in her resignation letter. The section chief Nakatsugawa summons Sawa and instructs him to assume the responsibility of bringing Maiko back. One day, Maiko encounters a mysterious man called Chokozai when she visits the blast scene. He appears to utter a string of nonsensical words, and falls into a slumber down there. Then Maiko returns home and is for some reason met by her father as well as Sawa. Sawa tells Maiko to return to work because she has used up her paid vacation days. However, Maiko seems to disregard those words. She instead shows him an item picked up from the scene and talks about the mysterious Chokozai. They search for the meaning of his words, piece them together and find out something that appears to be facts that they had unexpectedly missed out.
