The story begins on a stormy seaside night. Natsuko and Chiyo are taken away by creditors as "things" to settle accounts, and then resold to the middlemen of "prostitutes". The stone-like sister Xia Zi was not photographed by the old "mother" who bought the house, so she had to become an ordinary prostitute, and left this filthy world forever on the night she and her sister fled. Chiyo, who is like water, has gone through the vicissitudes of life, as predicted by everyone who understands the content in her eyes.

And the reason why the strong is the strong is because of his choice, or because of fate, who really knows all of this?
