Synopsis In near-future Japan, the government announces an unprecedented national policy under the banners of landscape reform, disaster prevention, and smart urbanization: The Complete Abolition of Power Lines. Every wire crossing the sky is to disappear. Electricity, communications, and data networks will be moved underground or transformed into invisible infrastructure. As the skies gradually open, the media praises the initiative as “the rebirth of beautiful Japan.” Yet behind the celebration, unnoticed work begins in places no one is watching. The protagonist, Hiroshi Kuze, is a veteran technician who has spent over twenty years maintaining overhead power lines. To him, power lines are not mere equipment—they are living systems intertwined with human life and time. Ironically reassigned to the removal team, Kuze now dismantles the very lines he once protected. As the wires vanish from the sky, memories of past accidents, fallen colleagues, and undocumented wiring that exists only in handwritten diagrams begin disappearing as well. Soon, unexplained communication failures and localized blackouts occur across the country. The city-management AI reports no anomalies. Only Kuze senses something wrong. He realizes that some of the removed lines have not truly vanished—they have merely disappeared from official records while still silently supporting the city underground. Is “complete abolition” truly completion? Who bears responsibility for accidents caused by infrastructure no longer visible? Together with his colleagues, Kuze attempts to uncover the distortions hidden beneath the “beautiful sky.” It becomes a quiet rebellion by a single infrastructure worker against a city ruled by efficiency and optimization. This is a speculative record questioning the very meaning of human connection revealed through the disappearance of power lines.
