Piece

Piece is an on-going serial in the Betsucomi, created by Ashihara Hinako, the same creator of wonderful pieces like Sunadokei and SOS. Almost all of her piece tries to be close to reality as possible. Like SOS, Piece is a mystery that would make you just want to keep on reading to solve the puzzle.

Piece is all about a deceased classmate who doesn't appear to be just what they thought of her back in High School. Origuchi Haruka is a plain and snobbish girl, or that's what Suga Mizuho and her classmates have thought of her. It wasn't a surprised that when they attended her wake at 19 years old (just a year or two after graduating HS), they couldn't really remember her.  So it was a surprised to Suga Mizuho when she learned that Origuchi had told her mother that she had been best friends with her.

When Origuchi's mother, upon thinking that Mizuho was her daughter's best friend, tried to ask a favor, Mizuho refuses. She's not someone who tries to meddle into other people's affair. She always kept her guard up and not get too much close to anyone else. So when something happened to Mizuho that made her decide to change herself and try to get to know about Origuchi, she offered Origuchi's mother her help. She was very much surprised when Origuchi's mother asked her to find her daughter's ex-boyfriend who had gotten her daughter pregnant in the past. Thus started the investigation as to who Origuchi Haruka really is.
