Si, a psychopath with a passion for destruction and damage, meets Zan, another psychopath with a strong sense of control and obsessive-compulsive disorder. The bond between them is brought together by the resonance between psychopaths – the biggest advantage of being with someone of the same kind is that you don't have to pretend to be normal in front of each other. At first, this unusual couple had fun looking for victims, but as the conflicts caused by their differences intensified, a bloody game of cat and mouse between the two of them began.
