Heart wo Nusumu no wa Dare da

Detective Torimaru has dedicated himself to apprehending the elusive phantom thief Kaitou Hato, yet every attempt ends in bitter frustration. The cunning burglar delights in leaving behind a trail of intricate puzzles and taunting clues, turning their cat-and-mouse game into a deeply personal challenge. Unbeknownst to the detective, the mastermind he so desperately hunts is actually the unassuming owner of the local café where Torimaru and his task force regularly gather to unwind after exhausting shifts. As Torimaru spends more time at the café, his burning outrage gradually transforms into an unexpected infatuation with the charming proprietor. This shifting dynamic only deepens his internal turmoil, complicating his professional duties and clouding his judgment. Matters grow even more difficult when he discovers that Kaitou Hato already has another partner sharing in the thief's secret life. Furthermore, what initially appeared to be a series of random, chaotic heists begins to reveal a highly specific underlying motive, forcing Torimaru to confront the tangled web of deception, hidden identities, and complicated emotions that bind him to the very criminal he swore to catch.
