Before leaving prison, Oida uncomfortably enters into an agreement with his cell mate: in exchange for a half-share of 30,000,000 yen, he is to assassinate three strangers given to him on a list.

Oida must now try to alert the people on his list of their impending danger, and find out why they are being targeted in the first place.
