A bizarre incident where popular actor Tachibanaya Orojirou was bitten and killed by the living doll Kinginka has become the talk of the town. Very quickly, a junior member of the same acting troupe as Otojirou, Senjaku, turns himself in to the police and the case is considered solved, but Senjaku’s girlfriend is Kiku, who works at the milk hall. She asks Yoshii, who is in love with her, to prove Senjaku’s innocence.

Someone has stolen all the wages for all the employees at a major company. The culprit was apprehended through a discarded cigarette, but as the whereabouts of the missing money is still unknown, a reward is being offered for anyone who finds it. Kyousuke happens upon a coded message that seems to indicate the hiding place. Leaving Takuboku behind since he’s still cut ties with him, Kyousuke sets out with young Hirai to decipher the note.

Takuboku collapsed after coughing up blood. Kayo brings him a client named Tamaki. Takuboku turns down the request once, but fascinated by Tamaki’s perspective on life and death, and androgynous charm, he takes the case. Tamaki had a deep connection to the "bat-man," the acrobat, Kagami, but, because of the accident that caused Kagami’s death, Tamaki is now being threatened by Kagami’s younger brother. Meanwhile, Kyousuke can’t restrain his anxiety for Takuboku who is writing poems that smell of death.

Takuboku continues to find himself inspired by the way Tamaki finds a reason to live in helping the needy. Kyousuke hears a rumor from Hirai that ghosts appear in the house where the deceased Kagami lived and goes there to investigate with Takuboku where they discover the surprising truth behind the ghosts. Meanwhile, Tamaki’s husband Sonobe is dragged out the window by an unknown person. Is it Kagami’s younger brother?

Com sua condição se deteriorando rapidamente, Takuboku encarrega Kyousuke de seguir um homem suspeito que eles viram na igreja. Takuboku está certo de que um único criminoso, o Acusador X, é o verdadeiro culpado por trás da série de crimes envolvendo cartas acusatórias que expuseram várias questões sociais.
