Secret Puzzle Six years ago, Cecil and Megumi visited Cecil's friend Akua Oda in an apartment. They were taken hostage at the roof, where Akua's father Kyosuke Oda, who was a police officer, accidentally shot Cecil while trying to apprehend the kidnappers. Megumi then used her fire magic to kill Kyosuke in response. As a result, Megumi was put on death row. In the present, the members of the Butterfly Law Office watch a broadcast of a press conference with Shimon Makusu, the chief justice of the supreme court. He shares his opinion of allowing humans and Wuds to work together in the judicial system. Cecil goes out alone to see Shindaiji, the judge during Megumi's case, but he refuses to talk to her. After Cecil turns to Shizumu for help, Ageha lets her know that she has friends that she can ask for support. When Cecil waits to meet Shizumu in the shopping district at night for the case file, Kiba suddenly appears and take her with him, telling her to run from Shizumu. After Cecil realizes that Shizumu is a Wud, Kiba reveals to her that she died six years ago during the hostage incident.
