While MEJ director Maho Kiryu struggles with being pulled away from the youth poverty support project she once fought for, a new suspicious death case emerges at a cabaret club. The victim, owner Hayato Kuriyama, was notorious for his abusive management style. A hostess named Miyuki confesses to poisoning, strangling, and drowning him after being trapped by debt and violence, but refuses to explain one crucial detail. Just as the case seems solved, a club bouncer steps forward with his own confession, claiming he attacked the victim with an ashtray and strangled him. With conflicting testimonies and evidence pointing to multiple causes of death, MEJ must uncover which confession hides the real truth.
