Childhood Experience
Since his father abandoned his son when he was 4 years old in Futian, his mother engaged in sex work in order to manage the family. Although she met a fisherman who truly fell in love and got married in the process, her status as a prostitute always caused her to be scorned and ostracized in the village. Finally unable to bear the pressure, Fukuda's mother and fisherman divorced.
Through the money saved by the wine, Fukuda's mother opened a striptease bar, and her family gradually became more substantial. Fukuda also became the envy of her peers at that time. But because his mother only cares about making money, Fukuda's Girls' Generation was almost spent alone.
Girlhood love, 6 years in jail for unsuccessful encounters

At that time, her boyfriend participated in the student movement in Japan and was beaten to death by gangsters in an event. This incident caused great psychological trauma to the 15-year-old Futian.

After the incident, the warden ordered the transfer of these young female prisoners. But during the transfer, Futian was raped by a prison guard again. But unfortunately, even as local sensational news, the rapists were ultimately not punished by law because of the statute of limitations. This incident became the last straw that overwhelmed Fukuda's heart.

After she was released from prison, she started a new life, encountered the bubble economy and returned to her old business.
In 1972, at the age of 24, she was finally released from prison. She has been intrigued by her mother's work since she was a child, and she has also been engaged in the wine company. At work, the relationship with a regular customer Chi Shang quickly heats up, and the two decide to get married. As she did not want to reveal her past sentence to others, she did not register marriage with Chishang, but lived together as a de facto marriage. During the cohabitation period, Fukuda gave birth to 4 children for Chishang, three boys and one girl.
Due to the bursting of the bubble economy, the factories in Chishang have stalled. In order to make a living, Futian decided to return to his old business. But at this time, she was in her 30s and couldn't compete with the 20-year-old companion girls, so she chose to go to a strip club to be a striptease girl. It was also because of this that started her life of escape for many years.
Lies deceived the trust of her husband, and after the murder, she cooperated with her husband to throw the body
August 21, 1982, SongThe police station of Shan City suddenly received a report that a dancing girl named Anoka Atsukiko disappeared two days ago. Three days later, a female body was found in the forest of Matsuyama City. The police confirmed that it was the missing dancing girl. . According to a colleague’s confession, the victim had economic contacts with Futian. So the police turned their attention to Futian.

After the suspect was locked, the police rushed to Futian’s house as soon as possible. At this time, only Futian’s husband Chishang and their four children were left in the house. Ikegami admitted to the police that Fukuda told him on the day of the incident that he had loaned Angang 4 million yen. Because Angang’s failure to pay the money led to their fierce conflict, Angang wanted to kill Fukuda with a kitchen knife at home, and Fukuda was in desperation. In order to protect herself, she stunned with an ashtray and strangled her for fear. When Chishang wanted to call the police, Fukuda stopped him, claiming that if he called the police, 4 million would never be recovered. So Ikegami and Fukuda took away the passbook and luxury goods from Angang's house, and threw the body in the forest. All the passbook and cash received from Angang's house were taken by Fukuda.

In the end, Chishang was arrested by the police for the crime of throwing the body. After forensic examination, it was concluded that Hegang was strangled by silk stockings from behind and choked to death. The real situation is that Fukuda went to Angang to borrow money, and Angang rejected her. During the conversation, Fukuda saw the luxury goods displayed in Angang's home. Fukuda's jealousy broke through his reason, and he took Angang alive from behind. dead.

Plastic surgery changed the surname, the murderer turned into a dim sum shop proprietress
After three times of plastic surgery, Futian fled to the tourist city of Kanazawa. Here, even with a foreign accent, Will not arouse the suspicion of others. In the bar where she works, she met the owner of a local dim sum shop. She told her boss about her "difficulties": due to domestic violence from her husband, she chose to go to the court to sue for divorce secretly, but instead annoyed her husband. Now she is evading her husband's chase and at the same time maintaining her life by drinking with her . The boss felt compassion towards her and made a request for a de facto marriage with her, which hit Futian's arms.


While getting along well with the neighbors in the neighborhood, the dim sum store operated by Fukuda has become more prosperous and even exported to big cities such as Tokyo and Kyoto. The boss hoped to officially register marriage with Futian on many occasions, but Futian refused. Although he had a rich life, he couldn't bear the pain of missing his son. Fukuda quietly wrote home and took his son over, falsely claiming that he was his distant nephew, and let his son be a buddy in his store. But in an accidental traffic accident, the shopkeeper learned that the man was from the hometown of the well-known murderer Fukuda.
When the ancestor worship ceremony was held at home, relatives from all over the family came to attend the ceremony. The cousin of the shopkeeper became suspicious of her identity after learning about the many coincidences of the sister-in-law who was unwilling to register her marriage. The woman's instinct led her to secretly investigate Fukuda, and finally told the local police station. My doubts. When the police rushed to the store to find out, Fukuda, who was aware of it, ran away from the snack shop in a hurry. Before leaving, he didn't even have time to say goodbye to his son.
The police interrogated Futian's son, but he didn't know his mother's whereabouts. In the end, the store manager gave Futian's son a severance payment and let him find his own way.

福田和子’s son
The fleeing life that had left her without food
After that, Fukuda moved to Kyoto, Nagoya, Fukui Prefecture and other places, due to his own News reports were overwhelming, and during that period it was almost a national mobilization to hunt her down.
has been a sushi waiter, a hotel waiter, a kaiseki restaurant owner, etc. Some people have also witnessed her being paired up with the Yamaguchi group leader, and others have seen her starving and desperate on the street. After the previous lessons, she stayed in no more than 3 months in each place. She didn't interact closely with others, and she would choose the room closest to the escape route when she stayed in a hotel. In this way, another 8 years passed.
Every time when she was suspected, she would prevaricate, and then immediately packed up her luggage and fled elsewhere. All this turned into a battle game between her and the whole world, and the policemen who chased her out again and again.

was spotted by the boss, and finally fell to the French Net
In her last year of the statute of limitations, the police increased their publicity efforts. In order to catch her, TV and magazines broadcast her news continuously. Her reward order was also posted on the streets. At this time, she moved to the last stop of her escape career: Fukui.
"She will always be the focus of everyone, and many regular customers come because of her." This is how the owner of an oden restaurant she frequents described her.
Although the appearance has changed a lot, the voice cannot be changed. After listening to the recording of Fukuda’s voice on TV, the owner of this oden restaurant became suspicious of Fukuda’s identity and secretly reported to the police.
This time the police did not rush to startle, just let the boss pay attention to the cups, ashtrays and other places that could leave fingerprints when they came to Futian next time. At this time, there are still 29 days before the statute of limitations.
Finally, Futian once again visited this oden restaurant. While drinking, I joked with my friends and said: “Some people always say that I look like Kazuko Fukuda on TV. I told a friend of my criminal police, take it. This is my fingerprint. Just take it for inspection!” The boss on the side covered up. Staying in a nervous mood, secretly put away the cup she had used. At the checkout, Futian asked the boss: "Are you also suspicious of me?" The boss should also reach: "Nothing, let me be angry."
The police quickly confirmed this name by comparing fingerprints. The person with the pseudonym "Riko" is the murderer who has hunted for many years: Kazuko Fukuda. The police squatted in this Oden-dong cooking shop, waiting to close the net. But for several days, Futian did not go to this store again.
On July 29, 1997, Futian stepped into this store again. At this time, 15 years before the statute of limitations, there are still 21 days to expire. The 5459-day escape life seemed to come to an end. However, the investigation after the arrest was not smooth.

At first, she did not admit that she was Kazuko Fukuda, and presented a fake ID to the police. After being spotted by the police, he claimed that he was just an accomplice of the murderer Chishang. Since Ikegami is dead, the investigation mission has almost stalled. Investigating the alibi 15 years ago is undoubtedly a difficult challenge for the police. However, the police did not give up and continued their persistent search. Eventually, they found the diary of Chishang's life in the relatives of Chishang. The diary recorded that on August 19, 1982, evidence of Chishang's absence was finally established.
After the investigators succeeded in overthrowing Futian’s accomplice claims, Futian remained unwavering and just remained silent in the face of interrogation. The procuratorate finally filed a formal prosecution against Fukuda Kazuko for intentional homicide based on evidence and materials. At this time, there are only 11 hours left before the statute of limitations. Since then, Fukuda's escape career has finally come to an end.
In 2003, after the Supreme Court ruling, Kazuko Fukuda was sentenced to life imprisonment. In 2005, Fukuda suffered a cerebral infarction in prison and died after being rescued. This desperate woman declared her life to end at the age of 57.
Futian left several letters in prison and wrote: I want to get married, I want children, and I want to have a lively family. But the turning of the gears of destiny brought me such a weird life. In the end, I can't get anything, even true love.
has countless lovers in his lifetime, changed more than 20 fake names, 7 plastic surgery, and wandered for 14 years. The case caused great repercussions throughout Japan and was later filmed into a TV series. In 2010, Japan finally passed the review and changed the original 15-year statute of limitations to unlimited.

Fukuda Kazuko has fled for many years. She wants to start a new life after the statute of limitations ends. This may have something to do with her experience of being raped when she was young. At the age of 17, she was sanctioned by the law at the time, but the perpetrators who repeatedly violated her completely covered up their crimes because of the statute of limitations. It is also possible that for her, life in prison means painful memories of being raped. She never wanted to experience it again.
If the murderer was brought to justice at that time, she might not have escaped to the End of the World.
If she regrets halfway and surrenders to the police, she may be able to live the life of her dreams with her family after she is released from prison.
If she didn't walk into the oden restaurant that day.
Maybe the results will be different.
What made her was the lack of family education in childhood, the turbulent social environment, or her own soul full of jealousy and obliterating kindness. At the end of his life, Kazuko Fukuda recalled the past, whether it was obsession or regret, we have no way of knowing.
It’s just that she was wrong at the beginning, and in the confrontation with the world, in this way, she would only fall into a darker place than the darkness.
