SYNOPSIS
Kisaragi Toko is a member of the First Investigative Division, an elite group of detectives who usually handles murder cases.
Toko was suddenly called to a crime scene where the victim is encased in mortar, a material similar to concrete, in the basement of an abandoned building. While the task force in charge of the case is having a meeting, they receive a phone call from someone who claims to be the criminal.
The criminal tells Toko that the person he killed is connected to an unsolved crime in the past, and he's going to kill more people who are also related to the unsolved crime.
REVIEW
Ishi no Mayu is an interesting drama about people; how cruel people can be and why people can commit heinous crimes. It also talks about how victims can sometimes turn out to be criminals.
When you watch the drama where criminals torture the victims in the most brutal ways possible, you'd almost lose hope in humanity. I don't want to believe that people can be such sadistic murderers but these kinds of people exist, unfortunately.
Kisaragi Toko has a good heart but she seems clueless in the most obvious ways. She blurts out confidential information to strangers without regard, and she can't seem to control her emotions.
Takano Hideaki: Use minimum information to draw out maximum information. Got it?
