The mutilated body of Mako Igarashi, a high school student, is discovered in a rural town covered in snow. Following this, her classmate Mizuki Aikawa confessed to the crime. The subsequent investigation yielded two conflicting accounts of the events: one from the perspective of the confessed perpetrator, and another from the victim's perspective. Initially, official proceedings rely on Mizuki's testimony. However, evidence from six months prior, documented through Mako's experiences, presents a conflicting version of the incident's origins. This discrepancy becomes a central point of contention.
Both students came from severely dysfunctional families. Mizuki experienced intense academic pressure from her mother and came from a family with a history of suicide, including that of her older brother. Mako lived in poverty and was coerced into providing financial support to a relative. With no effective adult support systems in place, the two students became each other's sole means of emotional survival. Defense attorney Yutaka Tsuji and his associate Hayami undertake Mizuki's legal representation. Their investigation into the contradictory evidence, which culminated in a courtroom trial, is key to establish the truth behind the crime and the relationship between the two students.
