Sadao, a graduate from a mediocre college, is shocked to learn he has been transferred to a different section on the B2 basement floor of a prestigious office building. When he arrives at his new workspace, he meets a shrine maiden and is instructed by his boss to follow her. He trails her to a scene where a man is on the verge of assaulting a woman. The miko, named Ichiko, intervenes and purges the man, causing a spirit to leave his body and restoring normalcy. According to Ichiko, incidents of sexual harassment and rape have surged twentyfold over the last three years. Her mission is to reduce these cases and avert societal chaos by exorcising the souls that corrupt human minds. Sadao was chosen to join her department because he is believed to possess the latent ability to combat these spirits. What is the secret behind Ichiko's powers? Find out by reading!
