Plot Synopsis by AsianWiki Staff ©
To secure money for the heart surgery that his daughter needs, Masamune Shinjo (Takumi Saito) attempts to kidnap Rin Nanase (Yuno Nagao). She is the daughter of a wealthy hospital director. When Masamune Shinjo drives close to the hospital director's home, a girl jumps out in front of his car. The girl is his kidnapping target Rin Nanase. The girl faints and when she wakes up, she doesn't remember who she is. Masamune Shinjo lies and tells her he is her father. Meanwhile, prior to Masamune Shinjo's kidnapping attempt, a crime has taken place at Rin Nanase's home. Soon, Masamune Shinjo becomes not only a kidnapper, but a murder suspect.
