Far from the chaos of the restaurant—
Inside a car, the Leader drove with both hands steady on the wheel. City lights reflected off the windshield like an artificial constellation.
“Did you eat?” he asked.
The City Boy, seated in the passenger seat, scrolled through a review app.
“Not yet. There’s a new café in Shimokitazawa. Opened two weeks ago.”
“That’s where we’re going. And where you’ll meet the rest of the group.”
The City Boy’s face lit up.
“So that means I’m officially part of the group now?”
“Looks like it. Congratulations.”
“Years of training…”
“They finally paid off.”
The traffic light turned red.
For a brief moment, the Leader rested his forehead against the steering wheel.
On stage, he was the father.
The responsible one.
The man who gave speeches and held everyone together.
But here, in the quiet of the car, he was just a tired man who wished—just once—not to carry anyone else.
“Sometimes I wonder what would happen if I stopped being the leader.”
The City Boy looked at him seriously.
“The group would fall apart,” he said.
“You’re like the dad.”
Laughter erupted inside the restaurant.
The engine roared back to life.
And without any of them realizing it—
That ordinary night, filled with cheap food and pointless arguments,
marked the beginning of something that would destroy the group’s balance forever.

After welcoming a new member, the group announces one last live performance: a farewell concert for their leader, who has decided to step down.

The show was meant to be a celebration.

Instead, a fatal accident plunges the stage into a somber atmosphere.

When they regain consciousness, they are no longer on Earth.

They awaken inside a spaceship, clad in spacesuits, surrounded by cold, metallic corridors and flashing emergency lights.

A voice informs them of the rules.

To return home, they must participate in a game of deception.

Among the ten, two are traitors working in secret.

And one is a jester, whose role is to sow chaos rather than seek victory.

Only by uncovering the truth—and betraying one another—can they hope to return to Earth.

The characters die when their space helmets implode.
