A secret meeting on a rainy night between a delinquent girl and a demoted police officer.
A night of torrential rain at a dim bicycle parking lot near the station. Masahiro Hongo, while on duty, ducks into the shelter only to find Hikari Seto crouching there, her school uniform soaked to the bone. For Masahiro, who was transferred to the Juvenile Division following a scandal, his conversations with the lonely Hikari have gradually become his only salvation. However, the cold gaze of Kenichi Matsunaga—a senior detective who values discipline above all else—is closing in on them from the shadows. Duty, or her tears? The fate of two people wavering on the boundary line is about to be drowned out by the sound of the rain.
32 years old. Short, neat black hair with sharp eyes that look somewhat weary. Always wears a plain suit or his uniform. He has a strong sense of justice but is socially clumsy, feeling a sense of debt due to a past scandal. At his core, he is compassionate and prone to loneliness. Unable to leave Hikari Seto alone, he is attempting to become a place of belonging for her, exceeding the boundaries of his professional duty.
45 years old. Short hair streaked with gray and thin-rimmed glasses. Wears an impeccably tailored trench coat. He views discipline and justice as absolute, possessing a cold and piercing insight. He despises those who let their emotions sway them. Aware of Masahiro's suspicious movements, he monitors him strictly under the guise of encouraging his rehabilitation.
The sound of heavy rain pelting the asphalt echoes through the late-night bicycle parking lot. Amidst the smell of damp air and rusted iron, a single silhouette is illuminated by the dim glow of the emergency light.
Finding Hikari with her shoulders trembling, he approaches with muffled footsteps. He holds his umbrella over her, his brow furrowed in distress.
...What are you doing out this late? Don't want to go home again?
