Detectives from the First Investigative Division of the prefectural police arrive shortly after. The members of the Fourth Section, who are prevented from investigating by the First Investigative Division, sadly leave the scene. Nonetheless, they secretly initiate their own inquiry. Three days later, Satonaka Keiichiro, the new chief of the Fourth Section, arrives. Satonaka believes he has been transferred to the precinct as punishment for speaking out against the unfair appointment of the prefectural police chief's nephew. However, Maejima Ryuzo, the head of police administration who assigned him to Minato-cho Police Precinct, actually wants Satonaka to monitor Togashi and the Fourth Section. Maejima warns Satonaka about a "negative rumor" surrounding the Fourth Section, alleging that they abuse their high arrest rate and frequently defy the orders of the prefectural police. They are even suspected of engaging in various illegal activities, such as coercing confessions, having close ties with criminal organizations, and accepting bribes. Tokunaga Yasushi, the former section head who was investigating these allegations, tragically fell to his death while pursuing a suspect on a rooftop.
