Isn't it okay if it explodes?
The masterpiece that won two Mystery Awards, finally adapted into a live-action film!
The worst 'one day' in history begins, holding the entire Tokyo metropolitan area hostage.
Suzuki Tagosaku, an unidentified middle-aged man, is arrested for a assault incident while drunk. Shortly after he falsely claims to 'predict incidents by intuition,' a tremendous explosion occurs in Tokyo.
'There will be three more explosions, one every hour from now.'
Where is the bomb? What is the objective? Who exactly is Suzuki?
Ruiie, a negotiator from the Metropolitan Police Department's First Investigation Division, engages in psychological warfare with the monstrous figure who toys with the police through a mysterious 'quiz' surrounding the bomb.
The ultimate psychological game played out in a sealed interrogation room, and a life-or-death bomb search spanning across Tokyo.
Experience the biggest shock of the Reiwa era!
