Given that all three murder cases which occurred around Akemi must be connected, and hoping to find more clues, Himura and Arisugawa go to where the second murder took place.
Two members of Shangri-La, a radical group, are murdered in Tokyo and two teenagers are murdered in Kyoto. Rumor has it that a high schooler, Sakamata, aka Apollon is the perpetrator. The photos of four different crime scenes portray something significant.
Arisugawa is taken hostage by Shangri-La so Moroboshi can lure Himura to Arisugawa's location.
Moroboshi enjoys the thrill of betting on death, fueling the murderous intent that Himura suppresses. Himura responds to the "game of death" set up by Moroboshi.
