When innocent country boy Nai sets foot into the sordid, cutthroatrealm of the city, he might as well have painted a target on his ownback. Kidnappers, murderers and desperados abound, waiting to takeadvantage of a boy guileless enough to believe blood is merely 'redwater'. When he is framed for a murder, it is the bandit Gareki whobails him out. Being a shrewd and sharp-eyed thief, however, Gareki'smotives are less than pure. Nai is looking for a friend who hasdisappeared and left behind something particularly intriguing - anI.D bracelet from the organisation named 'Circus', the country'ssupreme defence agency. While Gareki has his sights set firmly on thebracelet, 'Circus' in turn, has shifted its eye onto the duo as well.
