Nishizaki was arrested on the spot as a suspect in the murder and sentenced to 10 years in prison by virtue of a voluntary confession. A decade later, an ex-cop named Takano begins to reinvestigate what he believes was an unsolved murder that somehow entwined 6 young adults all with the initial “N” in their names.
