2. The film is adapted from Shuichi Yoshida's novel of the same name. It tells the story of the murderer who shocked the whole country and fled after plastic surgery. A year later, three men of unknown origin appeared in three places in Japan, and the people related to them fell into a crisis of confidence.
In a hot summer, a couple in Bawangzi area were both killed. At the scene where the doors and windows were closed like a steamer, the murderer left a bloody word "anger". The prisoner escaped after plastic surgery and his whereabouts are unknown.
One year after the murder, three mysterious men appeared in Chiba, Tokyo and Okinawa.
Chiba. Aiko (Aoi Miyazaki), who suddenly left home three months ago, was found in Tokyo. She works in a nightclub in kabukicho. Aiko's father Yohei (Ken Watanabe) rushes to Tokyo to take her home. Yang Ping works in Chiba Fishing Port. After his wife died eight years ago, he raised his daughter alone. After returning home, Aiko met Dai Tian (Matsuyama Kenichi) who started working in the fishing port only two months ago.
Tokyo. Yuma (Tsumabuki Satoshi), who works in a big-name communication company, is busy during the day and goes to gay clubs at night to seek short-term excitement and happiness. In addition, he has a mother with terminal cancer. One day, Yuma meets a straight man (played by G Ayano) who has no fixed abode in Shinjuku.
Okinawa. Junichiro Koizumi (Suzu Hirose), a high school student, and his troubled mother fled to a remote island. On this day, she met the backpacker Tanaka (Mirai Moriyama) in the uninhabited island.
The police who are still tracking the murder of the Eight Kings released the latest imaginary photos of the prisoners. That face looks like a man in Chiba, Tokyo and Okinawa.
Dai Tian and Aiko formally communicated. Yohei prayed for their happiness, but at the same time he had doubts about Tian Wangchao of unknown origin.
Ma You and Zhiren began to live together, and their relationship deepened. However, the strange behavior of straight people during the day made Yuma feel uneasy.
Because of something, Koizumi closed his inner world to the outside world, and her classmate Chen Zai was miserable because she couldn't help her. Tanaka supports Koizumi as a relative, but no one really understands living alone in an uninhabited island.
