==Overview==
SRI is a private research organization with a mission to handle scientifically complex, challenging, or cases involving supernatural phenomena for the Japanese police through the utilization of their uniquely developed machinery, equipment, and technology.
Throughout the series, SRI often undertakes special operations at the request of the police or collaborates with law enforcement in joint investigations. However, being a private organization, SRI does not possess equivalent authority to that of the police.
