Thanks for all the suggestions! I’ve decided to pick up “TOKAGE Keishicho Tokushuhan Sousa Kakari” for now. This drama SP stars Sorimachi Takashi, Kuriyama Chiaki, Ryusei Ryo, and others. I was torn between this and another, but figured a modern-day detective story would be a nice change of pace from my current projects. I might still pick the other one up later if it hasn’t been subbed by then. Yoroshiku ne!
Synopsis:
At 9 a.m., Hinode Bank employee Higashida Katsumi (Moriyama Shogo) is reported kidnapped. The perpetrators demand 500 million yen and a secure negotiation line by 3 p.m, leading investigators to suspect an experienced criminal.
Veteran officer Ueno Kazuma (Sorimachi Takashi), once part of a motorcycle pursuit unit “Tokage”, is called in to join the investigation. He’s paired with Nakahara Asuka (Kuriyama Chiaki), a specialist trained by the FBI in crisis negotiation. Their methods clash immediately.
As they dig into the case, unsettling details emerge. But the motive remains unclear, and the case begins to veer in an unexpected direction…
