Tetsuo Maekawa

A self-destructive man becomes a powerful member of the yakuza but quickly loses his self-control. Based on the true story of Rikio Ishikawa.

One year after the Kidojis' eldest son Otohiko was arrested for his part in a terrorist kidnapping, which resulted in multiple deaths, all the other perpetrators' parents have either resigned from their professional positions or taken their own lives, Nobuyuki Kidoji remains adamant that he is not responsible for his son's actions.

One night, a passenger car driven by Kyoko hit and killed a woman. Her husband, Dr. Nogami, who was a passenger in the car, hid the body in the grass and they returned home. Soon after, an autopsy by the police revealed the identity of the woman. A few days later, the woman's lover, Ueda, calls Nogami demanding that he keep quiet.
