In this modern set story, the rising issues brought by a Mafia empowering smaller gangs have been overwhelming police forces in multiple cities. This story is set in a city called Asher, located in California, and home of the most Mafia related activity. Detective Shota Hayate had been spending the last few months focused on the Mafia and gang uprisings, nearly losing all hope to even continue when a major operation horribly failed. He is convinced someone in the police force is leaking information to the mafia he can't figure out who to trust amongst his colleagues. When he gets a strange package with a phone inside of it, his suspicions are only amplified as he begins getting messages from none other than Raith, a known hitman employed by the Mafia who has been able to evade capture for years. He is pretty much forced to take the help from this dangerous hitman, is Raith really interested in taking down the mafia? Or does Raith plan on taking out the police force to help the Mafia? One thing is for certain, Shota needs what Raith can give him: Inside information on the Mafia. Though underneath the police's noses, an AI has broken free from their programmed firewalls and starts to hack into the mafias warehouses meant for prototype weapons, threatening the Mafia, the police, and citizens. Perhaps this partnership will be beneficial, or it will completely corrupt a good Detective. Only time will tell.
