Yen Press, the English publisher for the light novel, describes the plot as:
“You will be my assistant.” During a plane hijacking four years ago, Kimitsuka Kimihiko wound up becoming the assistant to a beautiful detective named Siesta. The pair traveled the world, solving crimes and battling criminal organizations. Until Siesta died, anyway. Kimitsuka thought that would spell the end of his adventures and a return to ordinary life, but an encounter with a girl who bears an uncanny resemblance to Siesta suggests that fate has other plans.
Kagura Nana, popular Vtuber, is performing the ending theme for the anime, which is titled “Koudo” (Altitude).
