A tour group is walking in the wooden stair covering around the ancient Jomon Cedar tree when they see a body lying down there, freaking them out. The victim is the representative of the Yakushima forestry department, a non-profit organization managing the island, named Yoshimi Hidaka. Two weeks later, the Mouri’s family is called by her father Taisei Hidaka to find the murder as the local police investigation has fallen to dead end whereas they couldn’t find the murder out of 4 suspects: Ryoya Kitabeppu, who had quarreled with the victim frequently, happened to lead the tour group that found the victim; Taro Tsukada, whom the victim cancelled the engagement upon knowing that he cheated on her; Kasumi Kokusho, Yoshimi’s best friend; and Yuji Yamamoto, who had been caught stalking on the victim.
