   Summary

   Several weeks have passed since the fallout of the airport massacre, Dazai has donned the mafia-black once again as the returned 'Demon Prodigy'. Those who remain with the ADA are desperate to return to some semblance of normalcy.

   Ranpo starts taking cases by the dozen, more as a protective measure over anything else. Until the Metropolitan Police start pulling politics, sidelining him with cold cases and even colder silences.

   Weeks later he is wakes with a phone-call, pressing the urgency of having his eyes on some more fresh material.

   Picking up this homicide case was supposed to be his chance to show up Minoura for falling in-line with poor enforcement policy. Instead, he's caught in a constrictive moral snare:

   If his glasses are the key to bringing the truth to light, why can't he bring himself to look at his closest friend and clear him as the primary suspect?
