[ Story ]

Jiro Kumazawa (Seiyo Uchino) is a hard-working civil servant working at a tax office. One day, he falls victim to an ingenious scam orchestrated by genius con artist Makoto Himuro (Masaki Okada) and loses a large sum of money. With the help of his detective friend, Kumazawa tracks down Himuro. The cornered Himuro proposes, "I'll scam the powerful figures you're after and collect the 1 billion yen in evaded taxes for you. So let me off the hook."
Although Kumazawa struggles with the idea of being an accomplice to a crime, he decides to team up with Himuro for the sake of his own revenge. Joining forces with a former actor who can take any role, an insurance fraudster with a nigh-indestructible body, a professional forger, and a mother-and-daughter pair of underworld moneylenders, they form the "Angry Squad". In order to steal the money from the tax evaders, they decide to commit property-sale fraud by pretending to be the rightful owners. The team comes up with a complex and bold plan to get back the public's tax money... but behind the scenes, a tremendous battle of wits awaits.
