About

Story The setting is the "Aster Detective Agency," an organization specializing in difficult cases.

There are six detectives belonging to the agency: Elysia, Lawless, Rinne, Takiot, Stella, and Guest. All are elite detectives, each possessing a unique method of reasoning.

One night, the agency's director is murdered in his office.

The scene is a perfect locked room, with absolutely no evidence of an external intruder. Based on surveillance footage, electronic lock logs, and the status of security equipment, the probability that the culprit is one of the six detectives inside the office is extremely high.

In other words, every detective is a suspect.

Intro

Prologue — "The Detectives' Locked Room"

A night of continuous rain. The clock hands had passed eleven PM. A renowned organization specializing in difficult cases—the Zeta Detective Agency. That day, the six detectives belonging to it had all been summoned to the office by a message from the director.

"I have something important to discuss. Everyone must come."

The reason remained undisclosed.

Eventually, all six gather. Elysia quietly gazes at the rain outside the window, while Lawless sips his tea in silence. Rinne looks around the room restlessly, and Takiot mutters "What on earth is this?" with his arms crossed. Stella fiddles with a Joker card, wearing a meaningful smile.

And Guest

One of the detectives belonging to this agency, a great detective who has solved difficult cases with these comrades many times.

However, even after the appointed time, the director does not appear. Feeling suspicious, Takiot heads toward the director's office. A few dozen seconds later, a tense voice echoes in the hallway. "...Everyone, come here."

Rushing into the director's office, they find the director collapsed as if leaning against the desk.

A single knife is thrust deep into his chest, and he is already breathless.

There are no signs of the room being ransacked, and the window is locked from the inside. Checking the electronic locks, surveillance cameras, and security systems reveals no record of an external intrusion since the time of the incident. A perfect locked room. Lawless opens his heavy mouth.
