Heaven and Hell: Soul Exchange

Suspecting an old love letter in Haruto’s possession holds a clue to solving the case, Ayako investigates his past to find out who sent it. Meanwhile, Hideo is approached by a man arrested for gambling who wants to make a plea bargain in exchange for information. According to him, the timings of the murders all share something in common.

The more Ayako learns about Haruto, the less she understands him. From everything she hears, he’s far from being a psychotic serial killer. So is he covering up for someone? Or is he not the murderer after all? Meanwhile, details about the crimes and the police’s reasons for suspecting Haruto begin appearing on social media, and Haruto’s company becomes the target of a negative campaign. Since the police didn’t officially release the information, who leaked it?

Haruto commits another hideous murder. When she finds out, Ayako is horrified that her body has been used to take a human life. Later, Hideo tells her that he can no longer cooperate with her out of fear of Haruto, and she feels helpless to prevent another murder. Meanwhile, Mitsuo becomes suspicious and tracks down an eyewitness to the crime.

Hideo, Ayako’s police buddy, figures out that her soul has been switched with Haruto’s. Ayako, in desperation, seeks Hideo’s help in stopping Haruto from killing again. Meanwhile, she learns of an ancient legend about the sun and the moon, and she heads to Amami Oshima island in search of a flower that she hopes can restore her soul to her own body. There, she finds an unexpected clue concerning Haruto.

Now Haruto offers Ayako a choice: either turn herself in to the police and spend her life behind bars or help him clear his name. Ayako has no choice but to choose the latter. On Haruto’s instructions, she removes evidence of Haruto’s crimes from his apartment before the police can search it.

Ayako is an ambitious young police detective whose big break finally comes when she gets the chance to arrest a murder suspect single-handed. But before she can slap on the cuffs, their souls are switched and Ayako finds herself in the body of Haruto, a psychopathic serial killer!
