Makoto Edamura is supposedly Japan's greatest swindler. He and his partner Kudo try to trick a Frenchman in Asakusa but unexpectedly get tricked instead. The guy they tried to swindle turns out to be Laurent Thierry, a much higher-level ‘confidence man’. Edamura is yet to find out what fate awaits him, after having engaged in the Frenchman's dirty jobs…! **Cancellation Note:** Due to artist Daichi Marui's poor health, the series was put on hiatus and then eventually cancelled on December 24, 2020.
