Introduction
Produced and written by the team behind the popular Aibou series, Gonzo is the police slang for a person with ability and experience but unable to work. Uchino Masaaki plays Kuroki, who was once a top-notch detective with the First Investigative Division but ends up as an unmotivated and slovenly clerk in an accounting division for another police station after an incident results in him suffering post-traumatic stress disorder. But one day, a case arises that brings him back as a detective.

Story
A pervert who takes advantage of underage girls appears within the jurisdiction of Inokashira police precinct. Endo Tsuru, a rookie detective, comes to the Equipment Division to pick up a female high school student’s uniform because she is to be the decoy but Kuroki Toshihide is completely indifferent. Dressed as a female high school student, Tsuru encounters a suspect called Nicholas, and the stakeout begins. At that moment, a young lady called Monami, comes to the police precinct to enquire about her lost violin. Before long, Nicholas is taken in by the police and Monami’s violin is found among his possessions. It looks like the case has been solved but that night, Tsuru and Monami are gunned down. Can that murderer be …?
