The year is 2142. In this new world, people live much longer, they have been able to cope with many economic and environmental problems, and entire cities are spread out in the depths of the oceans. Forty years have passed since the Earth was almost destroyed by the Sesso-seki asteroid. Akira Kimura, the scientist responsible for the project that dealt with the threat, became a real star as a result. But now she feels that they want to kill her, so she calls her former head of security, who has now become a policeman. But arriving at the underwater city where Kimura has set up headquarters, he finds only the mutilated corpse of his former boss. And now he would risk everything—his career, his family, even his own life—just to find out who was responsible for her death. And to do this, you will have to remember about the past, where many unpleasant secrets are hidden. .
