The absence of traces is the most distinct trail.
Schoolteacher Eiichi Kamio is found murdered in the backyard of his own house under a rubble of cardboard boxes. He's dressed in a leisure suit, but he's not wearing shoes. The house is trashed, but nothing's missing. And here's what's particularly puzzling... The cause of death is a constriction of the vessels in his neck; he was strangled, but there's simply no sign of fingers, rope, or anything like that. The police are stumped. But not the deceased's younger brother, the illusionist-mentalist Takeshi. Using his rare abilities, he begins his own investigation. For Takeshi, playing with reality is an integral part of his daily life. He can read people by the slightest expression of emotion. He is able to involve a person in a tricky scenario against their will without them noticing. In the interests of the case, he can even slightly tweak reality....
