A man filled with despair, trying to end his life, which is like a "kagerou" (heat haze). Suddenly, a sinisterly sneering man in black appears. At a crossroads of life, the two make a certain contract. What separates the body and soul? What makes a person human? Bearing deep anguish, the protagonist heads to the place of the end.
