-We open late at night with Ken stopping for a soda while on patrol. A free soda? Lucky!
Wait, what's that sound? A speeder & he's heading for the river-There's nowhere to go for him there & as Ken rounds the corner...NO WAY!
-No one believes Ken's story about the speeder's car disappearing but Yoriko suggests that it might be an evil spirit with some unfinished business. Calm down, Miyuki-Yoriko was just kidding about the glowing car & evil spirits! Even with all this a crime did occur so the Chief wants all patrols to concentrate on finding the getaway car.
-Wow Saori, you're still not used to seeing Toukairin doing his training regimen? BTW, here's a new shortcut to the train station to save you some time going to & from work. Natsumi's meeting Toukairin for a date later & it looks like she's OK about his having to return to Toyama Prefecture soon-Envious, Saori?
-A little window shopping for Toukairin in front of a jewelry store...Hmm, something suspicious about that guy in the glasses...Oh, Natsumi's here! Time for our date!
-A ferry ride, dinner & some news: Toukairin will be leaving for Toyama 1 week from today so let's enjoy our time together, OK?
-Uh oh, a jewelry store was trashed & robbed! This may be connected to the mystery car so the Chief orders increased night patrols to find the thieves. Aoi & Yoriko are the first to encounter the "ghost car"-The pursuit is on! Miyuki, Natsumi, Ken & several other units converge on the car at an intersection but...Disappeared again? How???
-Detective Tokuno has security camera photos of the thieves robbing the store-Apparently they're pros that hit only jewelry stores & don't mind being picked up by surveillance cameras. They've also been using trickery to pull off their "disappearances" with a fake construction site. One of the men in the photos looks very familiar to Toukairin-He saw the guy in front of the jewelry store that he was window shopping at on the day of his date with Natsumi. That store is the thieves' next target!
...BTW, what were you doing in front of that store, Toukairin? Something for Natsumi, maybe?
-That night, the trap is sprung with all but the getaway car driver being caught but he & his buddy won't get far...And yes, we're on to your trick with the empty lot!
-First 4-pointed stars to take out Nakajima's tires then an oil slick to try to stop "Today"...These guys really are pros, aren't they? But even the best pros can't outrun the trackers that Natsumi tagged on their car and at the next intersection...Gone again? Only a tractor trailer truck but the tracker's still active & that trail of oil-The car's inside the trailer! Nitro on!
-Paint ball pistol firing plus expert timing by Miyuki pulling "Today" out of the truck's path equals one jack-knifed truck & the remaining two thieves in custody! Back at the station, Toukairin meets Natsumi on the roof...
-...To give her the carabiner (Hook for a safety line) that saved his life when he was climbing Qomolanga some time ago. It's the most precious thing that he has & he wants Natsumi to have it (She accepts it & will treasure it always).
