At midnight, Yamabe (Tsutomu Yamazaki), a killer, escapes from prison. Two years before, bribed by a narcotic smuggler, Yamabe killed a real estate broker.

When Yamabe was sent to prison, Negoro cared for her and they fell in love. Sakuko asked him to marry her, but Negoro was reluctant to take the killer's sweetheart from him. Learning of the relationship of his girlfriend and the detective, Yamabe had pledged revenge.
