When Cicadas Sing and Cry

On February 27, 2007, the murderer of the infamous "Chizhijun Incident" was executed. This horrific murder left a mark in criminal history. However, a few days later, a notebook belonging to one of the victims - which was lost in the "Ikegun Incident" - was sent to the Tokyo detention center where executions were carried out. This notebook comes from Takayama City, Gifu Prefecture, and contains a report on a horrific murder that occurred in Chanming Village, Takayama City, Gifu Prefecture eight years ago. The suspect in this case was later acquitted and became known as the "Suzumiya Incident". The murderer of the "Chizhigun Incident" wrote his master's thesis on this case when he was a graduate student. It seems that the murderer took the notebook and sent it to someone in Cicada Village, and that person retrieved the notebook while the murderer was being executed...
