**************************************************** ****************************************

Synopsis:

Changfeng's only daughter, Emo, was raped and murdered by a company employee, Changfeng. A few days later, Changfeng received a secret phone call and learned the name and address of the murderer. After hesitation, Changfeng decided to follow the phone and go to the murderer's residence. When sneaking into the unoccupied house to search, Changfeng found several video tapes, which actually recorded the scenes of his daughter being abused by the two murderers. The grief-stricken Nagamine tortured and killed one of the murderers, Banzaki Atsushi, who came home by chance, and from the dying Banzaki's mouth, he learned the approximate hiding place of the other murderer, Kanno Kaoru.

Changfeng Chongshu, who has no criminal experience and no intention to hide, left a large amount of evidence at the scene of the murder, and was soon locked by the security unit. After being disclosed by the media, it attracted polarized views of the public. In two murder cases, the two murderers are on the run, and they are each other's "victims". Who should the blade of law enforcement be directed at? Who should be protected? Who should punish the murderer? How to do it justice? Changfeng Chongshu's actions affected the family members of the other murdered girls, as well as the people around him. Even the policeman felt hesitant and contradictory in his heart, which finally led to an unexpected outcome.

Japanese law protects juvenile criminals very much. No matter how serious their crimes are, as long as they are minors, the punishment will be lighter, and their names and identities will be kept secret. It seems that Japanese law focuses on the human rights of criminals, but does not seem to take into account the feelings of the victims' families. Will this fuel the arrogance of criminals, arrogant and reckless in the belief that they are protected by the law? In addition, "monster parents" are not unique to Hong Kong. Are the parents responsible for the villains in the book?

"Righteousness" has always been a profound subject.
