The forensic lab. A special institution that's part of the police force, but exists not for the force or the victims, only for the truth. An authentic police suspense story about the front line of criminal investigations, written by an ex-forensic scientist.
High school senior Aihara Kotoko has had a crush on Irie Naoki since freshman year. But she's been discouraged from confessing to him by a few things: he's a member of "Class A," the top ranking class in school, whereas she's in "Class F"; he gets the top score on every exam; and he's so smart, popular, and handsome that he's been class president every year. When Kotoki finally musters up the courage to present him with a love letter, though, Naoki outright refuses it, telling her point blank--with a look of disgust and boredom--that he doesn't like "stupid girls." Poor Kotoko's worst nightmare! Her heart is broken, but then a change in circumstance forces Naoki and Kotoko to be together every day...!?
"My second chance at life was never meant to turn out this way!"
To save her formerly illustrious family from destitution, Lady Lucetta Ambridge accepts a political marriage to Mister Kyle Wisley, a new-money businessman aiming for her noble title. On the day that their loveless marriage is set to start, Lucetta is killed by a gunman with a grudge against Kyle, and she is sent back in time by two years!
Now equipped with knowledge of the future, Lucetta is determined to pay off her family’s debts alone by secretly becoming a fortune-teller renowned for her accuracy, so that she can break off her engagement, and finally marry for love. However, Kyle himself suddenly comes to seek her prophetic advice, on none other than…his secret, decades-long love for Lucetta?!
Who will win out in the end – the besotted Kyle, or the determined-to-run Lucetta? Are they both too hard-headed to get along? Will this end up being more of a comedy or a romance?
The show’s about to begin!
