Jul 12, 2024 (News On Japan) - One day, a delivered package turned out to be a bomb -- shocking the entire nation for four days.

In November, on the eve of one of the distribution industry’s largest events, ‘Black Friday,’ a cardboard box delivered from a global shopping site exploded, leading to a series of mysterious bombings that terrified Japan. Elena Funato (Hikari Mitsushima), who had just been appointed as the center manager of a massive logistics warehouse, works alongside team manager Ko Nashimoto (Masaaki Okada) to deal with this unprecedented situation.

Who planted the bombs and for what purpose? How many bombs are left, and where are they now?

In a modern society that cannot afford to stop, how can we prevent the series of bombings without halting the lifeline that is our global logistics network?

As each mystery is unraveled, the hidden true nature of this world will come to light.
