The original writing is a short mystery collection that takes a humorous approach to many of the genre's cliches. Matsuda stars as the "famous detective" Tenkaichi Daigoro, while Kashii Yu plays the female lead as a rookie cop.An old man called Morino Sakuzo is brutally killed in a snowy mountain village. The Police Inspector Okawara Banzo from the First Investigative Division, rushes over and rookie detective Fujii Mana, who has just been assigned to the unit, also joins him. However, Okawara seems to be waiting for someone. Then the great detective Tenkaichi Daigoro appears there. “It’s you again. What are you doing in such a place?” Okawara asks in an artificial way. In fact, it is one of the “rules of the great detective” to come once a case occurs. And Okawara has the unpleasant duty of being the dumb police inspector who blandly supports the great detective’s deductions. Let the investigation begin!
