Description:

Metropolitan Police detective Takamaru Takuya, from the Second Mobile Investigation Unit, faces disappointment when he's partnered with Shimanaga Shoichi, a detective nearing retirement, replacing his injured colleague. Their first investigation together begins dramatically in Shibuya, where a man's body is discovered under an elevated railway. What initially seems a routine case quickly deepens as Shimanaga instantly spots crucial inconsistencies. He shrewdly identifies the victim's photo ID as a forgery and recognizes the deceased as a habitually wanted thief. This revelation highlights Shimanaga's extraordinary, unexpected ability, turning Takamaru's initial reservations into intrigue. Adapted from Konno Bin's acclaimed novel series "Mobile Investigation Unit 235," this suspense film promises a thrilling journey into complex crime-solving, driven by a mismatched yet highly capable detective duo.
