This 27th instalment of the popular mystery series features three intriguing cases with clever puzzles. In “Almost Too Late,” private eye Milky Sugiyama and Tomoko board a train in pursuit of the thief Toyboy, who fled from a high-end watch store. Can they find the clues in time? “Monsieur and the Locked Room Mystery” sees the return of Milky’s arch-nemesis, the master thief Monsieur. Can they once again protect the priceless painting in the Nekogami couple’s home? In “Find the Stalker,” they are hired by the vain idol Barahiko Kurenai to identify a stalker. Who could the culprit be?
