I think it might be best to establish the number of main figure heads, the main characters whom most of the plot revolves around or is initiated by. For example, Suburu as the police chief, and with her you would not necessarily have to write out her starting scene of addressing her officers, since that's an implicit type of scene. What will be important is showing a glimpse into her professional life, and the challenges she faces.
Honestly, Polka is a prime story driver candidate, as she was literally all around getting the stories.
