This show is about how the main character Ishigami, the maths genius, helped someone he is fond of to cover up a murder case. Hanaoka Yasuko is the lady who 'saves' him when he was about to leave the world. When he learns that Hanaoka and her daughter have killed a person, he then helps the two of them to construct the perfect alibi. The police investigation runs into difficulty and Detective Kaoru Utsumi seeks the advice of his friend, the brilliant physicist Manabu Yukawa. Ishigami is happens to be Yukawa's college friend. A fierce battle breaks out between the genius mathematician and genius physicist.
It is a pretty nice show. I was caught surprised at the end when the Physicist solves the mystery of the case. I am suppose to be touched but maybe this isn't 'touchy' enough... i was moved but not into tears. Or am i too concentrated on the two genius pitting against each other. On whole, you guys should go and watch. It doesn't matter whether you guys watched the TV series or not.
