Hiru follows Shinomiya Yuki, a friendless 21-year-old whose solitary life takes a sudden dark turn. Returning home from a part-time job, he discovers a strange man with a knife wound sitting in his room. The situation escalates dramatically at the hospital when the wounded man falsely identifies himself as Shinomiya Yuki to a detective, then points to the protagonist and claims he was the one who inflicted the injury. Branded a stabber, the real Shinomiya Yuki flees, becoming an instant fugitive.

Lost and on the run, he encounters Zoka, a mysterious woman seeking assistance to avenge her father's death. Zoka, revealed to be a "Hiru" residing in an empty house, enlists Shinomiya Yuki's reluctant help. As they embark on this dangerous quest, their path intersects with Kara, a legendary "Hiru" driven by his own relentless pursuit of revenge. This thrilling narrative explores themes of false accusation, mistaken identity, and a perilous journey into a hidden world of "Hiru."
