A woman's young son is kidnapped and the only clue to his disappearance is a note starting with the words "This is a quiz." What follows is a fast-paced and stylish whodunnit which leads chief investigator Kaoru Kiriko of the Special Investigation Team down a trail of increasingly perplexing riddles that all the while seem to mock the efforts of the police. Street-smart Kaoru may be the kidnapper's intellectual match, but as she gets closer to her mark, she finds herself becoming the hunted rather than the hunter. Edit Translation

An unique set up where the whole case is followed real time through all the episodes.

Even if I know the ending, I watched it many times. When I saw it, I was surprised at the criminal in the final episode !! It was fresh in many ways, and I also liked Naomi Zaizen's Kiriko, Takashi Naito's Shirasuna, Katsuhisa Namase, and the cast characters. Above all, I like this role the most in the drama of Ryunosuke Kamiki when he was a child actor. Moriguchi Yoko Moriguchi's unstable mother was also good because her voice and face were irresistibly cute (// ∇ //). I also liked the morbid footage of the opening and ending, and I also liked the background music.

A kidnapping case that occurred in a quiet residential area of ​​Tama City, Tokyo. The unidentified kidnapper gives quizzes one after another and swings around the people involved, as if ridiculing the parents and the police. Kaoru Kiriko (Naomi Zaizen), who belongs to Criminal Investigation Division 1 of the Metropolitan Police Department, is solving a quiz from a kidnapper who arrives by e-mail with Ryuta Shirasuna (Takeshi Naito), a police officer of the Criminal Division of the Tama East Police Station. Find out the truth of the case.
Only in the suspense drama of Uemura producer's soul, there is only a place of rest at a mental hospital where you can touch the malicious intent of people too much because of the characteristic of detective Kiriko Kaoru who is played by Naomi Zaizen able to read the hearts of others. The appeal of anti-heroines with excellent profile ability. A fierce intelligence battle between the kidnapper and Kaoru Kiriko, who give a quiz by e-mail and play with the police and related parties like a game. The darkness of the victim's family, which is exposed in the kidnapping case, is that the results of the examination and the status of the husband are mounting each other's mom friends and the dissatisfaction of the family is resolved by affair. The unwillingness of children trampled by their parents revealed at the climax. The strength of love that is not defeated by the malicious intent that Detective Kiriko Kaoru knows during the investigation of the kidnapping case. Naomi Zaizen, who is addicted to a cool anti-heroine, Katsuhisa Namase, who is unexpectedly addicted to an elite detective, and Takashi Naito, who is healed by a friendly detective, are good acting, and the theme song is also a cool, perfect for a criminal suspense drama.

Twisty

Very creepy drama...don't really enjoy the atmosphere. But the ending was unexpected. This is a drama that has twists in every direction. nothing is as it seems. The choice to showcase the case in "real time" makes this drama very exhilarating.
