"The Fugitive" is a 2020 autumn Japanese drama SP launched by TV Asahi, starring Ken Watanabe.
Tetsudo Medical University doctor Kazuki Kakurai (Ken Watanabe) and his wife Yoko Kakurai (Yui Natsukawa) and the housewife were killed, and there was no trace of the crime scene being broken into, and Kakurai was never hated.
The night before the crime, Kakurai and his wife attend a dinner party together, during which his colleague Ishimori (Yuhiro Murata) receives a phone call asking him to go back to the operation, and a drunken Ishimori asks Kacangi to return to the hospital to perform the operation on him.
Kakura rushed back to the hospital and asked his wife to take a taxi back by herself.
Ishimori also asks Miri Matsuzaki (Izumi Inamori), a physician at Higashi-Nippon University, to help him with the operation.
He came home late at night to find the housewife and his wife lying in a pool of blood, he saw the prisoner, and after fighting with him, he found the prisoner with a prosthesis, but was later knocked down by the prisoner.
But the police found that the evidence was all pointed to Kacangi and became suspicious of him.
A year later, the public trial ruled that Kakurai was executed.
The Metropolitan Police Department set up a special wide-area search squad headed by Masami Hosaka (Yoshiji Toyokawa), consisting of five members.
On the way to the execution, Kakurai escapes from prison robbery by other death row inmate Masahiko Shimaoka.
The Special Wide Area Search Team took over the case and conducted a search.
Soon, the Special Wide Area Search Squad found Shimaoka and began to search for Kacangjing.
In order to escape the pursuit, Kakurai did not dare to go to the hospital, so he had to pick up something to eat, and tried to disguise himself.
At the hospital, Kacangi encounters a thief who takes in Kacangi.
Kakurai called Aoki's lawyer, who told him that he was going to catch the real culprit himself, but he wanted to see the trial materials.
But the lawyer called the police, and the special wide-area search class chased the thief's house, but Kacangjing ran to the back mountain.
Rainy days helped Kacangjing escape the search, and after dawn he stole a car and continued to escape.
After being stuck in a tunnel and running into the sewers, after being caught, Hosaka wanted to kill Kakurai, but in desperation, Kakurai chose to jump off the cliff.
Unexpectedly, Kakurai survived, and he continued to flee and explore the truth...
The meaning of the escape in the first episode is heavier, but there are too many coincidences, it feels a bit fake, and the plot behind it should focus on solving the case.
