The story begins at a well-known company with the arrival of an email. This email fundamentally threatens the company's survival. After much effort, it is discovered that a major connection exists between a police inspector from the Public Security Bureau and this company; however, the special inspector attempts to hide clues that could reveal the truth. Promoted to investigate the case are Shirasu Yoshihiko (played by Kippei Shiina) and Akiyoshi Munetaka (played by Yosuke Kubozuka), who are on the verge of being dismissed. The special inspector's office, which investigates internal police crimes, has looked into a dangerous individual: Police Inspector Ishikawa Shuji from the Public Security Bureau. His collusion with a major film manufacturer, DAITO, and links to Chinese organized crime have long raised suspicions that could one day lead to explosive news capable of bringing down police agencies. To keep track of Ishikawa's movements, the head of the special inspector's office, Inspector Mitsutada, decides to assign the two detectives facing dismissal to investigate the police organization internally. These two detectives are Shirasu Yoshihiko and Akiyoshi Munetaka. Shirasu Yoshihiko shot a suspect at a drug trafficking scene and took cash as evidence. Akiyoshi Munetaka has a cross-dressing habit and has stolen female police uniforms from the police department. Meanwhile, DAITO's headquarters receives a strange threatening email signed "Drowning Fish." The email declares that if the demands are not met, not only DAITO's headquarters but also its DPE photography studio in Tokyo will suffer devastating consequences. While such demands seem unbelievable, the authenticity of the threat is impossible to assess. The developing solution tanks at all four DAITO photography studios have been mixed with bleach, ruining customers' film entirely. Although the criminal's methods are thorough and sophisticated, they differ from typical corporate threat crimes. The goal of "Drowning Fish" is not money, but rather a specific demand for senior management personnel at DAITO to perform humiliating acts in front of many onlookers. Given the love for their company, these executives have no choice but to shed tears as they disgrace themselves in public... One Friday night, Ishikawa appears at a specialty entertainment event, "Gay Night," hosted by talented visual artist Tetsuaki Okabe. To infiltrate the investigation, a reluctant Shirasu and a somewhat excited Akiyoshi pretend to be a gay couple and blend into the fervent and suffocating club atmosphere... Unexpected suspense unfolds one after another, leading to an intense gunfight during the day as Shirasu and Akiyoshi infiltrate a diverse metropolis teeming with various characters and desires, culminating in shocking events before them...
