In a Japan where the Taisho Era didn't end after 15 years but went on for another 10 additional years the eldest daughter of the financially declining Kuze family, Tsugumi, resolves herself to a marriage she doesn't desire for the sake of her family. However, Hitaki, her younger brother, vehemently opposes the marriage and after a fight with Tsugumi, shuts himself away in his room and attempts to kill himself. Tsugumi blames herself for her brother's suicide, but two mysterious men appear identifying themselves as part of the Imperial Library Intelligence Asset Management Bureau and reveal that her brother's suicide might not be as clear-cut as it seems.
If I hadn't said that, Hitaki would
have gone to town with me.
.إن لم أقل ذلك، لذهب هيتاكي معي إلى المدينة
Wenn ich das nicht gesagt hätte,
wäre Hitaki mit mir in die Stadt gefahren.
Si no lo hubiera dicho,
Hitaki habría venido conmigo.
Si no lo hubiera dicho,
Hitaki habría venido conmigo.
Sans ça,
il serait venu en ville avec moi.
Se non avessi reagito così,
Hikari sarebbe venuto con me.
Se não tivesse dito aquilo,
Hitaki teria saído comigo.
Если бы промолчала,
Хитаки поехал бы со мной в город.
