In 1973, a pawnbroker is murdered in an abandoned building in Osaka. Although suspects emerge one after another, the case eventually stalls. The victim's son, Ryoji Kirihara, and the daughter of the "suspect", Yukiho Nishimoto, a boy with a gloomy look and an extraordinarily beautiful girl, take completely separate paths. Several terrible crimes lurk around the two. But there is no "evidence" of anything. And nineteen years later... An intricate and impressive composition and an epic scale. A masterpiece of mystery that depicts the tragedy of a human being who has lost his heart.
