Series by 天音佑湖

Lady Leticia, the sheltered daughter of an earl, has always been captivated by the romantic tales she reads in novels, though love remains a distant dream. Her life takes an unexpected turn when Alphonse, her loyal butler since childhood, suddenly kisses her, revealing a side of him she never imagined. As their once-clear roles blur, Leticia begins to question whether she’s misjudged the man who’s always been by her side.

Melody is a spirited high school girl with a knack for stumbling into mysteries—and a determination to solve them. Armed with sharp observation skills and an unshakable sense of justice, she tackles strange occurrences around her town, from eerie rumors to puzzling incidents. Joined by her loyal friends, including the logical but cautious Kenta and the cheerful yet impulsive Yui, Melody's investigations unravel secrets that are deeper—and sometimes more dangerous—than they first appear.
