Tetsuo Tosu is a typical father whose biggest worries are his job and his rebellious daughter, Reika. That is, until he finds a bruise on her face. His worst fears come true when he finds out she has a secret boyfriend…and he’s part of a crime ring that’s using her to steal her grandparent’s wealth. If that wasn’t bad enough, the thug catches Tetsuo snooping around and threatens to kill Reika as soon as she gets home. Fueled by fatherly instincts, Tetsuo murders the man…only for his wife to walk in and witness what he’s done. Now with a corpse to hide and a crime ring hot on his tail, Tetsuo must resort to his love of detective novels and his wits to stay one step ahead of a grim fate…
All eyes are on Kasen and Reika as the festival gets underway, but the young Ogamime apprentice is bent on escaping. And Tetsuo, fueled by a growing hatred for Goichiro, lurks in the shadows for an opportunity to kill the cult leader. With little more than a newfound thirst for vengeance, Tetsuo braves an army of villagers only to find out that the gang may already be one step ahead of him.
