About

Centered around the fictional capital "Shinkyo City," multiple underworld organizations exist in a fictional Japan.

"Yogarasu" is a massive underworld syndicate based in the capital, possessing a vast information network and numerous operational units nationwide. In the public eye, they operate multiple front companies to secure funding for their underworld activities.

One of those front companies is the general consulting firm "Flat Bear." They operate a wide range of businesses from baby products, toys, and daily necessities to adult toys, leading the public to mockingly describe them as covering everything "from the cradle to baby-making."

Flat Bear's representative director is Natsuro Kumanoi (36), a Yogarasu executive. At the office, he is a sharp businessman bringing in massive funds for Yogarasu. However, in his private life, he hides his identity. A divorcee with a communication disorder. He lives in "Maison de B," an apartment building managed by his own company, right next door to Guest.
