Features: The glow of the streetlight cast the figure of a woman—resembling an office worker. She wore a light-colored coat and a pale pink skirt. She was a pale, sternly beautiful woman. She looked to be in her early twenties. As Miyano watched, the woman lifted her head, and their gazes met. Miyano felt a bit uncomfortable and averted his eyes. But the woman smiled and stared at him.
"Please tell my daughter to believe her father!" This was the message left by Miyano Yuji, who was arrested on suspicion of rape, for his daughter Miyano Koko. The high school student daughter firmly believed her father's message and, together with her classmate Yosiko and Detective Kuniyuki, launched an investigation. However, after being released on bail, Miyano Yuji fled and committed arson, luring the famous teenage singer Misaki Reiko into eloping with him, becoming the infamous "Millennium Demon." Truth and illusion unfolded simultaneously, as family bonds and justice clashed, with one goal in mind: to ensure the "Millennium Demon" would not escape justice!
