I found out that the man’s true identity was… Was it a dog?

“… is this okay?”

“Can’t you spread your legs a little more?”

The wolf knelt and looked into my thighs as if it were a gold mine. I closed my eyes tightly, but I couldn’t move closer to the wolf’s tenacious gaze that I could feel even when I closed my eyes. I just wanted this time to pass quickly. I felt like sweat would form on my thighs, so I wanted to tighten my thighs.

“Pull up the skirt a little more, okay? “

A very scratched voice. I opened my eyes and looked down. The wolf, who was burying his head in the width of her skirt, noticed my gaze, he pulled his hair out of my skirt and looked at me and scolded me.

“I can’t see well. you are standing .Can’t you sit down?”

“What are you trying to do in such detail? It’s over now.”

“You said you’d show me. After making a promise, why are you talking with two mouths?”

“You’ve seen it all!”

“I haven’t seen them all! I mean, I didn’t see it!”

“Hey, don’t do this. Oh, no.”

“Why not? We are already a couple.”

In addition, he narrows his eyes and even asks.

“You should have done this as soon as you arrived, you know?”

“Ahhh… !”

This happened five months after I became his bride.

“You have abandoned your duties until now.”

The wolf weighed me down with its heavy body and whispered softly.

“I endured it, witch…” <<less

Until she caused him to go blind.

The man grew cranky and unruly, and shut himself away in a remote villa. The people called it the Mansion of the Beast. Late at night, she knocked on the mansion's door.

"Do you know who broke my eyes?"
"......."
"A maid just like you."

A hand cupped her cheek, then passed over her chin and grabbed her neck. She coughed raggedly as her breathing was squeezed out.

"Do you even know how she broke them?"
"......."
"She poured poison into my eyes."

The pressure pressing down on her hand was heavy.

This is the weight of my sins. Even if I spend the rest of my life helping him, I will never be able to erase this karma.

"Meeting you is the greatest luck of my life," the man whispered.

"Next time, we'll both walk this path with our eyes open."

Will there be a next for us? <<less

In the winter of three years ago, the first locked room mu*der in Japanese history was committed.... more>>

All of the evidence pointed to the defendant. It was certain they were guilty. And yet, they were found innocent and released. Why? Because the crime scene was a perfect locked room no one from the police or the prosecutor's office could solve.

"Since the room was locked, it was impossible for the defendant to have committed the mu*der. It's no different than if they had a perfect alibi." That was the argument of the defense, and that was the argument the judge sided with.

The ruling sent a ripple throughout Japanese society. No matter how suspicious you were or how much evidence you left behind, as long as you managed to create a locked room that no one could solve, you were immune from prosecution. With the common anti-mystery fiction talking point "there's no reason anyone would ever actually commit a locked room mu*der" completely overturned, the rate of locked room mu*ders in Japan skyrocketed.

When the police proved unable to deal with the surge of locked room crime, the Ministry of Justice published an official categorization of all known locked room tricks as an investigative aid. When that proved insufficient, Division Zero of the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department, a police division dedicated solely to solving locked rooms, was created. When that still proved insufficient, locked room detectives, private investigators specializing in locked rooms, were officially licensed by the state and authorized to participate in police investigations. Calling a locked room appraiser, someone specializing in searching buildings for secret passages, is now a common first step in criminal investigations.

On the other side of the spectrum, locked room agents, assassins and crime planners specializing in locked room mu*ders, have become some of the most notorious criminals in Japanese history, and even a cult worshiping the scenes of locked rooms as a way to purify the souls of the deceased has made rapid inroads into Japan.

The protagonist, Kasumi Kuzushiro, is an introverted, somewhat cynical high school student who loves mysteries. Kasumi often finds himself dragged along on bizarre journeys by his flighty childhood friend, Yozuki Asahina. Due to their staggeringly bad luck, these trips often leave them in the wrong place at the wrong time to be caught up in locked room mysteries. Fortunately, another of Kasumi's childhood friends, Shitsuri Mitsumura, is the greatest locked room expert in the world, and can always discover the truth.

Hm? How did a high school girl become the greatest locked room expert in the world?

It's simple.

She's...

Olivier's lips curved into a slight smile as he watched Amélie.
His gaze met her calm green eyes. There was a subtle heat in those cool, forest-like eyes.

"Amelie, the more I see you, the more fascinating you become."

“...”

"When I first saw you, it was in a dark alley, and the second time, we met in the evening and stayed together until late at night. And now, here we are, spending the night together again."

Amélie quickly lowered her gaze. It felt strange. The nape of her neck grew increasingly warm.

"But it's strange."

"...What is it?"

"Even at night, you shine as bright as daytime."

A sweet, soft voice drifted into her ear. <<less
