The story of "The Blood of the Lone Wolf" is set in Hiroshima before the implementation of the "Yakuza Countermeasures Law" in 1988. Shuichi Hioka, who was dispatched to the local police station, together with detective Shogo Okami, who was rumored to be in collusion with the underworld, was responsible for investigating the disappearance of an employee of a financial company. Hioka was extremely puzzled by Daiko's unconventional investigation methods. Meanwhile, with the disappearance case as the starting point, the struggle between the opposing criminal groups intensified. At this time, Da Shang came up with a bold plan... The original author of "The Blood of a Lone Wolf", Yuko Yuzuki, won the 69th Mystery Writers of Japan Award. This novel has been praised by the industry as "a police novel x 'A War without righteousness'". The veteran actor, Koji Yakusho, and the popular young actor, Takumi Matsuzaka, respectively play the roles of Okami and Hioka in the film. The combination of an old and a young detective is quite eye-catching. The supporting cast also includes big names such as Yosuke Eguchi and Yoko Maki.[Collapse]
