One day, people were informed that a meteorite is approaching the Earth, and it caused the world to fall into chaos. As research progressed the distance between the meteorite and the earth is slowly getting closer… The story follows the perspective of 5 people as they spend their last 31 days on Earth. Those people are, a high school boy looking for an impulse, a high school girl who can’t express her feelings well, a teacher who tries to fulfill his promise to someone, a coffee shop owner who is pregnant, and a hikikomori boy who craves for the destruction of the earth. On the last day, before "goodbye", what is the last thing that they want to do?

This work depicts a "five" locked room mystery drama about two high school students, which develops in the first train in the early morning, the family restaurant after school, and the gondola of the Ferris wheel. A word that suddenly changes from everyday life to extraordinary, a psychological warfare on searching each other's minds. Youth, a fragile blue human figure, is depicted in a peculiar situation called a locked room.
