The pilot chapter for the 19-volume Jiraishin series. Detective Iida and the unit try to save hostage lives when a 15-year-old boy takes over a bank.
 
This is the stand-alone pilot chapter for Jiraishin. This was published in the weekly magazine Morning Later, a different magazine from the series, and never collected into the volume release.

Kyoya Ida is a hard-nosed detective from the Shinjuku Police precinct. He is known in the force as an unreasonable type who would use lethal force to solve cases, making him unpopular with the enlisted and high-ranking officers in the National Police Agency. Despite this fact, there are some in the force that admire Ida for his bravery and cleverness in using lethal force to solve criminal cases whenever legal means are met in a dead end.
