Synopsis
A big case hits Tamagawa Police Station - persons unknown murdered a family of four. The time of death was estimated to be between 10:30 p.m. on January 3 and 12:30 a.m. on January 4, 2003. A special investigative team is quickly established with talented officers from head quarters and other stations. Several detectives from the Tamagawa Station join the team, including a young uninspiring Ichiro. However, soon after entering the team's office, Ichiro is pulled off the case. It is ostensibly because he is investigating a case against the orders of his superiors... --TBS

In order to use the name Ichiro in the title, TBS had to pay a license fee to the US' Seattle Mariners baseball club, as they own the trademark Ichiro, as in Suzuki Ichiro.
