Three years ago, Ruri lost her parents in a traffic accident and inherited the public bathhouse her father left behind. With declining customers due to surrounding condominium developments, she struggled to keep the business afloat, relying on support from the neighborhood association. One day, the neighborhood chairman—known for his love of alcohol and women—pays Ruri a visit. He pressures her intensely, saying, "If you want to keep running this bathhouse, you'll need our help, won't you?" Realizing that rejecting the association's support would devastate her financially, Ruri swallows her pride and endures the humiliating situation.
