A former elite motorcycle pursuit officer, Kazuma Ueno, returns to help solve a high-stakes kidnapping. At 9 a.m., Katsumi Higashida, a bank loan officer, is abducted, and the culprit demands 500 million yen and a secure negotiation line by 3 p.m. The Crisis Management Chief brings in FBI-trained negotiator Asuka Nakahara, who must work with Ueno despite their clashing methods. As the team races against time, they discover clues on Higashida’s desk: a message and gift from his estranged child, yet the motive remains unclear. What starts as a routine case soon spirals into a deeper, more dangerous conspiracy.
