Hungry for the attention of her mother Keiji, who is overwhelmed with work and palliative care duties, her imagined world offers only a faint comfort. One day, Fuki sees a telepathy and hypnosis show on TV – she becomes so captivated that, besides card tricks, practical magic and the search for the supernatural, she gains a new phone friend…
