Story
Forty-year-old detective Eiji Kirisame encounters what may be the strangest witness of his career: a silent high school girl named Tsugumi Kuchinashi who was present at a crime scene. Unable — or unwilling — to speak, Tsugumi communicates only through rough doodles in a sketchpad. Eiji, a veteran at piecing together the truth from scarce evidence, takes every page seriously. But the last page leaves him stunned: it reads, “Will you marry me?!”
