Assigned to cover a feature on traditional Japanese and Chinese herbal medicine, Asami Mitsuhiko visits the president of a pharmaceutical university through an introduction from his older brother, Asami Yoichiro, Director General of the Metropolitan Police Bureau. There, Mitsuhiko interviews Takatsu, a young scholar who has only recently been appointed a professor. Takatsu is also engaged to marry the university president’s daughter. One day, Kajikawa, a medicine peddler from Toyama who has known the Asami family for over twenty years, pays a visit to the Asami household. As Mitsuhiko already has plans to travel to Toyama, he promises to stop by and see Kajikawa. Upon arriving in Uozu, Mitsuhiko and his mother, Asami Yukie, witness a rare mirage and encounter a woman named Yuko. Soon after, a detective arrives with shocking news: Kajikawa, Yuko’s grandfather and a medicine peddler, has been murdered. Without delay, Mitsuhiko begins searching for the culprit, but the case proves more complicated than it first appears. (Source: Japanese = TBS || Translation = kisskh) Edit Translation
