MIU404

Synopsis

Tokyo’s Metropolitan Police create a fourth Mobile Investigative Unit, a round-the-clock first-response team expected to reach crime scenes first and drive each initial investigation toward an arrest within twenty-four hours. Careful, distrustful detective Kazumi Shima is reluctantly paired with Ai Ibuki, a former local police-box officer whose instincts and speed are outstanding but whose behaviour is chaotic and whose reputation is terrible. Working from their call-sign car, 404, the mismatched partners race through cases ranging from reckless drivers to a shadowy drug network, while Shima’s past, including the death of a former partner, gradually comes into the open.
