Yoshihiro Koen, the administrative director of Shodō University, was murdered at home. Detective Naoto Hoshino from the Fujimi police station (played by Kento Yamazaki) rushes to the scene and, after examining the living room, suspects that Koen, who is separated from his wife, was also involved with other women. Natsuki Tanimura (played by Rina Takeda), a lecturer in the International Sociology Department at Shodō University, is an ambitious woman who began an extramarital affair with Koen, who holds significant power over personnel, half a year ago. After Koen's murder, Natsuki is arrested as a suspect. On the other hand, journalist Sōta Maruyama (played by Ryuta Sato) receives an anonymous email regarding the victim's infidelity; he suspects someone is trying to manipulate public opinion about the case and decides to conduct his own investigation. The police headquarters hastily closes the case, identifying Natsuki as the murderer; this action raises suspicion for Hoshino, who feels that Natsuki may be falsely accused. The detective, the suspect, and the journalist, each dealing with personal issues, find their paths crossing due to shared interests. Together, they strategize, peeling back the layers of mystery surrounding the true culprit, inching closer to the truth. Who is the real murderer? The shocking truth hidden behind humanity's "malice" is about to be revealed!
