In one small Japanese town, which is not close to the sea, something truly incredible happened - penguins appeared there. They were never there, and it is not clear where they came from. Fourth grader Aoyama decided to tackle this anomaly. He is very attentive, curious, likes to observe the environment. The boy writes down all his observations, various experiments, as well as discoveries (at his age, there are a lot of them) in diaries. And all the investigation of the young tracker led him to the solution - the girl who works in a dental clinic is to blame for the appearance of penguins in the city. She has the ability to turn a soda can into this cute bird. But this is only the tip of the iceberg, behind which much more is hidden.
