The student Sakura Sakurakōji ( 桜 小路 桜 ) watches from the bus as her classmate Rei Ōgami ( 大 神 零 ) lets people go up in blue flames in the park. But when she later returns to the place, she finds no reference to what happened. When she confronts Rei, she learns that it is part of a secret government organization and a so-called code: Breaker, a hit man with supernatural abilities. Now that she has learned this, Sakura herself soon finds herself in danger.
