Touma Nishizawa has fallen in love with the beautiful girl in the classroom opposite his. The only thing standing in the way of his confession? A 5-meter high concrete wall lined with razor wire and armed guards that separates the communist north of the country from the democratic south. But when an ill-fated get-rich-quick scheme run by his shifty upperclassman goes wrong, Touma is suddenly thrust face-to-face with Ayasa Higashiyama, the very same girl. On the run from the northern authorities and without any friends in the south, Touma decides to take the opportunity to show her a world beyond the drab and stagnant country she has always known - and just maybe turn her into the girl of his dreams.

But what happens if Cinderella isn’t home by midnight?
