Other name: 邪神の天秤 公安分析班, Evil God's Balance Public Security Analysis Team

Description:

Newly transferred to the elite Public Security Department, Takano quickly finds himself immersed in a perplexing and gruesome murder investigation. A powerful ruling party tycoon has been found brutally killed near the site of a recent bombing. The crime scene reveals unsettling details: a specific organ was meticulously removed from the victim's body, and a bizarre balance, adorned with both a heart and wings, was left behind as a cryptic calling card. Takano is profoundly disturbed by the macabre nature of the incident, immediately sensing a chilling resemblance to ancient Egyptian mythological practices, particularly the symbolic weighing of the heart. Despite his growing unease and initial attempts to voice his concerns, his colleague, Himuro, quickly dismisses these theories, chalking them up to an overactive imagination. Takano must now navigate his skeptical department while confronting a meticulous killer whose methods seem rooted in dark, ancient symbolism.
