As Ryo Saeba, the renowned "City Hunter," and his partner, Umibozu, enjoy a day off, they come across a young girl named Hitomi who needs their help. Hitomi's father, a prominent businessman, has gone missing, and she believes he may have been kidnapped. As Ryo and Umibozu investigate, they discover that Hitomi's father was involved in shady dealings with a group of criminals known as the Jackals.
Meanwhile, Ryo and Umibozu are approached by a man named Hayato, who claims to be a private investigator hired by Hitomi's father. Despite some initial skepticism from Ryo, who doesn't trust outsiders, Hayato proves to be a valuable ally in their investigation. Together, the three begin to unravel the web of corruption surrounding Hitomi's father and the Jackals.
As they dig deeper, Ryo and Umibozu find themselves in increasingly dangerous situations. They cross paths with a ruthless assassin who has been hired by the Jackals to eliminate anyone who gets in their way. And when they track down the location where Hitomi's father is being held, they find themselves in a perilous standoff with the criminals, fighting for their lives.
Throughout the episode, we see Ryo and Umibozu's relationship tested as they work together to solve the case. Ryo is as sharp and cunning as ever, but he also shows a softer side as he bonds with Hitomi and tries to protect her from harm. Meanwhile, Umibozu proves to be a loyal and dependable partner, willing to put his life on the line to help those in need.
As the episode comes to a close, Ryo and Umibozu manage to rescue Hitomi's father, but their triumph is short-lived when they realize that the Jackals are still out there, waiting to strike back. This sets the stage for the next episode, which promises even more action, suspense, and drama as Ryo and Umibozu continue their quest to take down the Jackals and bring justice to their city.
