About

Jiro Sato and Ai Hashimoto Star as Leads for the First Time in a Fuji TV Serial Drama!

If their secret is exposed, they’ll be reassigned immediately - the true identity of this brilliant detective duo: a married couple!

Starring Jiro Sato and Ai Hashimoto as co-leads. For Sato, this marks his first leading role in a commercial network prime-time serial drama. For Hashimoto, her first leading role in a Fuji TV series.

Disguised as a light-hearted detective comedy, the series unfolds into a tightly woven mystery where intricate clues and complex emotions collide - a drama that balances humor with thought-provoking intrigue.

The story takes place at a police station in Nakano, Tokyo - a community-based precinct handling cases of all sizes, from arguments between pedestrians and neighborhood disputes to theft and fraud. Assigned to its Criminal Investigation Division are the partner detectives Makoto Yomoda and Asuka Suzuki.

With outstanding teamwork, the pair solve case after case. However, they carry a secret they cannot tell anyone. They are husband and wife.

Within the police department in Japan, exists an unspoken rule: married couples cannot be assigned to the same division. If discovered, one of them would be transferred. In other words, they would be forced out of the detective division. To remain detectives, they reach only one conclusion: hide the fact that they are married.

Thus, the detectives form a partnership while concealing their marriage and keeping separate surnames...

At work, the two ordinary fellow detectives...
