Episode 3 Story

Anna Akechi begins cleaning the CUREtto Detective Agency, where she has decided to live. Mikuru Kobayashi, who has completed the process of moving out of her dormitory, joins her, and the four of them, Anna, Mikuru, Pochitan, and Jett-senpai, start their new life together.

As they continue cleaning and organizing, Anna and Mikuru head up to the second floor of the detective agency, where they discover a single map. It appears to be a map of the surrounding area, but several marks and notes have been written on it.

After settling down from their work, Anna and the others head out into town to purchase furniture and miscellaneous goods for their new home. They stop by an antique shop called Camellia Interior and are impressed by its stylish selection. Suddenly, Pochitan senses the presence of an incident. When they speak with a staff member who raised their voice, they learn that the shop’s symbol, a glass turtle figurine, has mysteriously disappeared.

Revealing that they are detectives, Anna and Mikuru offer their help and immediately begin questioning those involved.

The protagonist Anna Akechi is a 14 year old second year middle school student living in Makoto Mirai Town.

There, Anna meets another 14 year old girl, Mikuru Kobayashi, who dreams of becoming a great detective. When a series of incidents begin to occur, the two girls find themselves unable to ignore people suffering from stolen treasured possessions.
