Story
Ryuzaki Ikuo and Danno Tatsuya are orphans who grew up in an orphanage called Mahoroba. When the two of them were elementary school students, they witnessed the killing of Kashiwaba Yuiko, an orphanage staff who looked after them like a mother, by someone. They gave statements to the police. But their words were by squashed by a police official with a gold watch and the case was also covered up for some reason … … 20 years later, Ikuo has become a detective and works for the Shinjuku Second Police Precinct’s Criminal Investigation Division. Skilled at catching whiff of cases, he has the highest rate of arrests in his police precinct. On the other hand, Tatsuya has used his intellect to rise to the top of the underworld as a leading member of the organised crime group, Matsu-gumi. A police and a gangster; two partners that no one knows about and with only each other to trust. The objectives of Ikuo and Tatsuya, who should never have any association, are to locate the gold watch man within the police, find out the truth and expose the darkness of this all powerful, inviolable police organisation. One night, a man falls to his death in Shinjuku. Was it an accident, suicide or murder? Ikuo and his partner, Hibino Mizuki, rush over, but it is determined to be a suicide at a postmortem examination. As this belief that it is a suicide strengthens, Ikuo says he would like to meet the family of the dead man. Then, he sees surveillance camera footage of a car theft incident and realises that the thief witnessed the scene. Sawatori, a habitual criminal, emerges. It appears that he saw the whole incident … …
