A nonsense comical mystery. Kazuhito Harumi is a high school boy who loves books and is a fan of novelist Kirihime Natsuno. One day, he finds Kirihime writing at a cafe, about to be shot by a robber. He protects her from the attack but is killed instead. Through the supernatural power of a book-worm, he is reincarnated as a dachshund dog. Kazuhito (as a dog) writhes in a painful bookless life, when a sadistic woman carrying a pair of scissors offers him help. She is Kirihime herself.
Every dog has his day
Strike while the dog is hot
The winter dog flies into the fire
Drowning men clutch at dogs
Nothing ventured, no dog gained
Rain settles the dog
The dog would not be shot but for its cries
Dogs in moderation
There is no smoke without dog
Time flies like a dog
A dog by chance is preordained
Dogs and scissors require good handling
