CONTINUATION OF THE WORLD BESTSELLER "THE KILLER TRAIN".
NATIONAL BESTSELLER OF JAPAN.
WINNER OF THE "SHIZUOKA SHOTEN" AWARD.
At first glance, Miyake is an ordinary man with an ordinary life, constantly stressed at work, pushed around by his wife, and not particularly respected by his son. It's no wonder he visits his doctor so often. Except that the doctor is actually his employer.
And Miyake himself is a famous contract killer known as Rhino Beetle...
Rhino Beetle is one of the best in the business of eliminating people, a jack-of-all-trades. However, at home, he crawls on his knees before his wife, trying (unsuccessfully) to anticipate her moods and desires. He periodically wants to retire, but one person prevents him from doing so...
The doctor is the curator of contract killers, one of the main dispatchers of the criminal world. A man without a heart, nerves, or passions. Under the guise of "patients," he receives mercenaries in his "clinic" and assigns them tasks, replacing professional killer terms with words like "procedure," "operation," "tumor removal"... He doesn't like to let his operatives go.
Rhino Beetle is tired of killing. The doctor says that quitting the bloody business is only possible after several responsible and expensive "operations." And all of them are related to the elimination of other professional killers. But the last such task puts both Miyake himself and his family in danger...
