▍Story
The story begins on the east side of Shinjuku. In the heart of this chaotic town lies Kabukicho (歌舞伎町), shining brightly all the times with the luminous neon lights. However, where there is light, there is a shadow. In the street where shadow lurks, a detective tenement run by Mrs. Hudson finds its way towards the light, with seven peculiar and unique individuals. One day a grotesque murder opens the curtain of the detective story and you will never know what happens next!
