Rena (Yumi Kawai), who works at a detective agency, is forced to investigate Sato (Ryuta Bando), a new guy with no experience, and a boring affair. Just when she seems to have succeeded, her precious evidence is stolen from her by a thug called Dobu (Masaki Miura). The two are depressed, but when they receive a request from the proprietress of the small restaurant (Nahoko Yoshimoto) who helped them, to uncover the mysterious private life of a taxi driver named Kodogawa (Atsushi Shinohara), they find a chance to redeem themselves. It just starts moving.
Kodogawa’s background investigation turns into a “high school girl disappearance case” in which people in the town are intricately intertwined, including the yakuza who control the town, college students who want to make a splash, crazy black clothes, handymen from the underworld, underground idols, and the people of the town. , involving the two of them.
