The incident occurred 5 years ago when a masked robber stole money from a bar staff member and tragically killed both a veterinarian and a gangster. Initially, it was believed that the culprit might be a foreigner. The two victims had no connection to each other and were at the bar waiting for separate individuals. As Detective Tagawa delves deeper into the case, he discovers that the veterinarian's two computers were also taken from his residence after the murders. This leads Detective Tagawa to consider the possibility that the motive behind the killings was not purely financial, but rather a calculated act targeting the victims. During the investigation, Detective Tagawa visits Meat Box, a meat processing facility, where he uncovers more clues. Additionally, he crosses paths once again with journalist Masumi Tsuruta, who is pursuing leads regarding potential misconduct related to the meat products at Meat Box based on a tip from a reader.

Detective Kusaka Satoru, working at Susuno Precinct of the Shizuoka Prefectural Police, begins investigating Sudo's background.

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. Satonaka questions whether Tokunaga's death was truly an accident. Despite initially approaching his new team with caution, Satonaka finds Togashi and the others to be unexpectedly friendly and skilled detectives, particularly Togashi who is described as charismatic and brave. They provide Satonaka with a detailed update on the murder case from three days prior, stating they are currently searching for witnesses as per the prefectural police's theory that it was a random attack. Satonaka is relieved by their professionalism. However, he soon discovers that their entire report was fabricated...!
