Assistant Inspector Fukuie may not fit the typical image of an assistant inspector, but once she delves into an investigation, she becomes completely focused on uncovering the truth.

On the other hand, her boss Inspector Ishimatsu holds a starkly contrasting perspective. He values organizational structure and discipline, adhering strictly to protocol. Since Fukuie joined his team, his pride has suffered as she often disregards his instructions to conduct investigations independently, eventually achieving success and enabling him to take credit for her accomplishments. Despite Ishimatsu's preference for conventional investigative methods, Fukuie's unorthodox approach consistently yields results that leave him feeling embarrassed.
