In October 2017, a murder occurred in Kumagai City, Saitama Prefecture, Japan. All evidence pointed to the blood-covered teenager at the scene - Keiichi Kabutoki. At the age of 18, he was sentenced to death by the court and became the last juvenile death row inmate in Japan's Heisei era.
In March 2019, Keiichi Kabuto escaped from the Kobe Detention Center and his whereabouts are still unknown.
At this moment, a mysterious man began to appear in many places in Japan. Construction sites, bakery factories, Olympic event venues, and ski resorts. After 455 days of fateful changes, he appeared in a nursing home called "Aoba", trying to get close to the victim of the Kumagai homicide - Yuko Ino. Why does the boy who was sentenced to death appear here? Is it for revenge or repentance? A criminal who massacred a family, a temporary worker, a member of a new religion... Which one is your real face?
Reader comments
Keiichi Kabutoki is really a strong, gentle and wise person. If he had chosen to take the bus home that night, would he have a better life now? At just 18 years old, he began to experience things that others had never experienced. He just wanted to live. During the escape, he met many people and learned many things. Everyone has a three-dimensional image. In the process of getting along with everyone during the escape, his gentleness and kindness were displayed from the inside to the outside. He treated everyone sincerely and every emotion. He is also an ignorant and innocent young man. It is pitiful that he, who is still in his youth, comes across the scene of a murder in order to clear his grievances. In order to survive, he begins to change his identity and uses his own life to prove his innocence. Even if you cannot see this scene, because of your kindness and gentleness, a group of people will gather together to support you, believe in you, and clear your grievances.
You will definitely hear the last sound
(It's a really good novel. Thank you Taibin for the recommendation!)
Regarding the matter of meddling, the risk is huge, so great that it may even cost one's life. One should be cautious about imposing the death penalty, because it is the end of life. Once a mistake is made, there will be no regrets. And for the people who benefit from kindness, they are very lucky, because they get the most precious and rare things in the world. All these come together to form a story that is both sad and touching. This story is very attractive, but it is also a little untrue. Those angels, have they really been here?
People judge people, so they make mistakes.
But not all mistakes have the opportunity to make amends
Keiichi Kabuto was wrongly accused, and he was filled with regret and anger before he died.
He has always known the truth, but unfortunately only he knows it and cannot feel the unwillingness and grief in his heart.
He just didn't hear the voice of judgment and innocence, and it was impossible to hear it.
Keiichi Kabuto is innocent. Although he cannot hear the voice of innocence and cannot live freely in the world, he is very grateful to those who are willing to believe in Keiichi for their efforts to prove his innocence, wash away this grievance, and help him take off the label of a murderer. The voice of judgment of innocence must echo in the ears of those who hurt and killed him for a long time. Live with regret for the rest of your life, live as carefully as Keiichi did.
Those who really make mistakes should be punished. Those who hurt Keiichi will spend the rest of their lives in self-blame and accusation! This is the judgment of human conscience and the public on you!

It's hard to calm down after watching this, Keiichi, did you hear that? You are innocent! ! !
The plot of this book has ups and downs, making me feel like I'm in a fog, eager to uncover the truth. The author's writing style is concise and powerful, and the description of the characters in the book is very delicate. For example, "He must have drunk too much yesterday. As long as this 49-year-old boss drinks, his face will be swollen the next day." The image of a drinker is immediately portrayed. Looking forward to the development of the story later!
But people can no longer come back.
Change the rating. I'm in a better mood recently and the rating is higher.
The story is good, but rather thin. It repeatedly emphasizes that the protagonist is a good person, and the main theme is that good people are wrongly judged. Comparing it horizontally with other socialist masterpieces, this one is really too thin. Four stars because I really liked the main character.
I kept crying after watching it... It's really beautiful, but it's such a pity. It's really a little bit worse every time.
It's a good story with some warmth in the sadness and helplessness.
Very touching, tears couldn't stop flowing
The emotions of the characters described are very delicate and touching.
