Description:

After an injury, former Criminal Division detective Kusakabe Eiji is unexpectedly transferred to the Life Safety Divisions General Affairs Section 2, affectionately known as the "Hikikomori Section." This unique department is staffed by socially withdrawn officers who support other police units from their office, stepping out only virtually.

Their unconventional methods are challenged when a distressed woman seeks their help to locate her missing fiancé. Simultaneously, a high-profile case emerges: Yamagishi Ryohei, the representative of a major IT company, is discovered strangled. As Kusakabe Eiji and the Hikikomori Section, alongside Takase from the Criminal Division, delve into the investigation, a shocking truth unravels. Yamagishi is revealed to be the missing fiancé, entangled in a complex web of multiple marriage scams. With the case growing more intricate by the minute, the reclusive officers must leverage their distinct analytical skills to uncover the full truth and catch the culprit, all without ever leaving the confines of their room.
