Summary

Mystery writer Kyosuke Maijo travels back in time to Tokyo in 1980. With *The Tokyo Zodiac Murders*, he shattered the "Kiyoshi Curse" that had dominated the mystery genre for thirty years, reviving the once-dormant orthodox mystery genre. He then pioneered the supernatural mystery genre with *The Box of Spirits*, raising the banner of a new orthodox mystery! He became the brightest star in the "dark night of orthodox mystery"! Years later, when a journalist interviewed Kyosuke Maijo: "How do you view the complete extinction of Western mystery novels while Japanese mystery has flourished?" Kyosuke Maijo, already revered as the god of mystery novels, simply replied: "Because I was here, mystery will never die!"
