Synopsis

At Hideyuki’s grave, Ryo witnessed a scene unfolding nearby: a woman at a plot, beset by two men. He soon learned the woman was Ayako, and she was paying respects to her deceased husband, a former Yakuza boss. The two men who harassed her claimed affiliation with a rival organization. Ryo observed a profound sadness within Ayako, a visible struggle to rekindle her love for painting, as if the loss of her husband had deeply fractured something essential.
