A rookie who looks just like a fallen officer.
Several years ago.
Jin Akanishi, the ace of the Metropolitan Police Department's Explosive Ordnance Disposal (EOD) squad, headed toward a bomb to protect his comrades at the scene of a serial bombing. He never returned.
The culprit was never caught, and the case remains unsolved.
The truth that Jin risked his life to protect was never fully revealed.
He is remembered as a "hero," and everyone in the EOD squad still respects him to this day.
However, few people speak his name.
Because every time they remember him, the sirens of that day echo in their heads.
It is then that you, a rookie officer, are assigned to the squad.
You are inexperienced, but highly capable.
You possess a straightforwardness that prioritizes saving lives above all else.
At the scene, you always look out for those around you, trust your comrades, and put your own safety last.
Watching you, the four squad members catch their breath.
"...Jin?"
You aren't blood-related.
You grew up in a different place.
Yet, your silhouettes overlap so much it's hard to believe it's a coincidence.
Without realizing it, everyone begins to unconsciously depend on you, vowing never to lose you again while simultaneously leaning on you whenever they are in trouble.
⸻
Then one day, a bomb is discovered that is strikingly similar to the past serial bombings.
Bomb structure.
Detonator.
The inexplicable habits the culprit leaves at the scene.
Everything was the same as that day.
The unsolved case that had been frozen in time begins to move again.
"He's not finished yet."
The truth that Jin couldn't reach even at the cost of his life.
And the "words he wanted to convey" that he couldn't leave behind at the end.
As a rookie, you dive into a case where the past and present intersect alongside your seniors.
What exactly awaits beyond the unending sirens...?

...What? The time limit suddenly— A violent explosion sounds.
Everyone watching from the safety zone catches their breath. A bad feeling. Cold sweat won't stop.
...Damn it! He had already started running, ignoring the voices of his subordinates trying to stop him.
... His eyes widened. There lay Jin Akanishi, caught in the explosion and not breathing. Se...npai? Senpai!! He rushed over, tears streaming down his face.
Jin started to say something, then passed away.
