Ryo Saeba and his rival Umibozu, both private detectives, infiltrate a high‑tech luxury hotel to free their captured friends. They must thwart a deranged South American dictator who intends to hijack the hotel's supercomputer and trigger a nuclear catastrophe. The action mirrors classic Die Hard moments, including a rooftop fire‑hose bungee jump.
