Ichika visits Ayaka in the hospital and tells her that she has told her doctor to prepare for the transplant surgery in the United States. The cost will be around 210 million yen. When Ayaka worries about money, Ichika replies, "Don't worry about money. Big sister makes a lot of money."
Ayaka's expression was complicated as she listened to Ichika's words. As Ichika was about to leave the hospital room, she asked him directly, "Why did you suddenly start receiving money?"
Ayaka stared at Ichika, who replied, "Huh? It's my ability," and then conveyed her feelings with all her might, "If you're forcing yourself, then stop. Take care of yourself first."
On social media, people were talking about the incident, saying things like, "There's something strange about the way Ayaka looks at Ichika," "The younger sister can tell that her older sister is forcing herself," "Ayaka just can't help but feel something's off," "If her older sister suddenly started earning billions, even the younger sister would become suspicious," "The younger sister is sharp," "Judging from the younger sister's reaction, it seems like she knows something," and "Ichika's younger sister has already realized that (Ichika) isn't her real self."
The drama is a suspense story about Hayase Riku, who is framed for the murder of his wife, abandoning his family and past, rebooting himself into the face of corrupt detective Gido, and pursuing the real culprit.
