Description
Makoto Midorikawa wields psychometry, a power enabling him to extract memories from objects via touch. Manifesting in childhood, this ability marked him as an outsider, fueling his longing for an ordinary life. Employed as a special investigator with the Metropolitan Police, he applies his psychometry to unravel criminal cases. When probing an explosion at an Exotic Matter (XM) research lab, he contacts a ring carried by Sarah Coppola—the incident’s lone survivor—and unlocks a fragmented vision of human forms engulfed by crimson light. This discovery plunges him into a clandestine war over XM, a substance that amplifies psychic powers and alters human thought.
Initially detached and skeptical, Makoto’s stance transforms as he uncovers systemic efforts to bury XM’s dangers. He aligns with the Enlightened, a faction advocating XM’s responsible integration for societal progress, opposing the Resistance’s containment agenda. Prolonged XM exposure sharpens his psychometry, allowing shared perception of memory fragments and synergy with Sarah’s ability to map XM energy patterns. Physical wounds from clashes with mercenaries and psychological strain from invasive memory probes test his resolve, compounded by ethical conflicts over XM’s capacity to rewrite consciousness.
His alliances include Sarah, his partner in exposing XM experimentation, and Jack Norman, a Resistance agent whose hostility shifts toward uneasy cooperation as they prioritize survival and unmasking XM’s origins. Missions demand infiltrating fortified labs, decrypting classified files, and confronting moral boundaries—such as invading traumatic memories via psychometry. Makoto’s evolution sees him embracing risk to thwart XM exploitation, trading cautious neutrality for decisive action.
The story closes with him pursuing global leads to find Sarah and Jack, convinced they live and hold answers to XM’s ultimate purpose. His psychometry anchors this quest, bridging fragmented truths as he transitions from solitary detective to pivotal figure in a battle shaping humanity’s future.
