The novel series centers on Yoshihito Naruse, a normal police patrolman. When he rushes to a scene with his superior officer, he quickly finds himself unconscious due to unknown means. When he comes to, he finds his superior killed by a mysterious "curse." As the survivor of the incident, the police department transfers him to the "Special Concerns Bureau" of the police, which apparently deals with curses and other supernatural incidents. There, he meets the psychic Tenzen Kuo.
Tanio launched the novel series with the first novel in August 2024, with illustrations by Maiko Aoji. The second novel released on Friday.
