in a near-future Japan that has adopted DNA investigation.
Original story authored by Higashino Keigo, who has had a number
of works adapted for film.
Metropolitan police department scientist Kagura (Ninomiya
Kazunari) works on criminal investigations that utilize the
public's DNA data. He has confidence in this investigation system,

Etsushi).
