In a world where minds can be analysed for potential threats of crime and mental instability, Inspector Tsunemori Akane is sent to deal with her first case, along with fellow inspector Ginoza and a group of Enforcers, latent criminals hired by the police to work for them. Akane’s case deals with an insane man who has taken a woman hostage and raped her, holing himself up in a building inhabited by groups of the homeless.

Tokyo, 2120. A massive transport drone crashes, and Unit One’s new inspectors Arata Shindo and Kei Mikhail Ignatov head to investigate. Discovering that Hyper Transport Co. accountant Asahi Rick Fellows is missing, Arata performs a Mental Trace to track him, but finds only his waterlogged corpse. Arata and Kei suspect the crash was staged, and pursue the mastermind who tried to silence Rick.
