Description
Casebook of Kurumi Tokisaki, Magic Detective is the intriguing tale of Kurumi Tokisaki, a college student with a dark past who works as a detective specialising in crimes involving magical artefacts.
Explore a world where a magic bullet is fired from an impossible angle, a living doll becomes mixed up in a series of comas, an absurdly expensive meal is said to restore one's youth, and a doppelganger is spotted at an all-girls' school following an attempted suicide. These extraordinary artefacts make the impossible possible, but Kurumi is determined not to let them stand in her way of solving these perplexing cases!
