A cozy Japanese detective story about barista Kirima Mihoshi, who is preparing for the most important competition of her life – while simultaneously trying to uncover the mystery hidden behind the scenes of the contest.

Now at stake is not only a prestigious title but also Mihoshi's dream – to share the stage with the best and compete for a prize that could change her entire life.

Upon arriving at the venue, Mihoshi feels the tense atmosphere among the participants, who clearly have something left unsaid. What happened at the previous competition that destroyed the mutual trust among the contestants and led to locking the storage room with a key card?

Will this tournament go smoothly? And can Mihoshi simultaneously fight for victory – and unravel the mystery that could compromise the entire competition?
