...
A solitary young woman and a lonely widow make a tentative connection as a pile of fake money brings trouble to their lives and newcomers to their town.
A woman discovers a large sum of money under a loose floor tile. Meanwhile, a girl and her friends go in search of a rumored missing bag of cash.
Harika meets Anone and learns the truth about the money. She then finds a camera under the floor with photos of Anone's long-missing daughter.
At Mochimoto's restaurant, an unstable Saikai decides to hold Harika for ransom. A former employee of the Hayashida print shop visits Anone.
With the money in hand, Aoba flees to the apartment she shares with the ghost of her daughter. Mochimoto and Harika go to retrieve the stolen cash.
After Harika brings Aoba and Mochimoto to apologize to Anone, the four of them begin living together. Nakaseko prints a convincing counterfeit bill.
Nakaseko pressures Anone and the others into making counterfeit bills with the printing machine. Harika runs into Haruto, who has skipped school.
Unaware of the counterfeiting operation, Harika takes on some grueling part-time jobs in hopes of earning enough money for Hikoboshi's treatment.
Growing suspicious of Anone, Hanabusa begins to monitor her. Harika reaches out to Hikoboshi but ends up meeting with his friend Kasumi.
As the police investigate the counterfeit bills, Nakaseko's wife suspects that he's involved. Anone buys Harika a dress for her visit with Hikoboshi.
With Anone no longer around, Harika returns to her everyday life. While on the run, Aoba and Mochimoto see on the news that Anone has been arrested.
