Bøger af Masume Yoshimoto

On a day just like any other, a corpse washes up in the river that separates Kumade from Tamura Village. The victim was a resident of Tamura, so the detectives, considering the long history of antagonism between the villages, suspect someone from Kumade. The detectives look around the village for suspicious characters, and soon their hunt leads them straight to Kumade Shrine!

When a detective from outside the village sees Natsu talking, Yoshio quickly explains that the bear is the village mascot. To cover his tracks, Natsu-chan has to come up with a marketing plan for himself. What will happen when he makes his debut on the national stage?
