Character Introductions: Master Detectives Dispatched to Kanai Ward
Pucci Lavmin

Despite her child-like appearance, she has machine-like composure and mental processing speed. Perhaps because she avoids communication, she sometimes shows awkward reactions and intense displays of emotion during conversation.

By concentrating, whispers, footsteps, and even heartbeats can be heard from far away.
Fubuki Clockford
Japanese VA: Saori Onishi

Character Introduction: Head of the Nocturnal Detective Agency
Yakou Furio
Japanese VA: Takehito Koyasu
English VA: Kaiji Tang
Head of the only agency in Kanai Ward, the Nocturnal Detective Agency. An aloof and elusive man. Although not a Master Detective, he is certified by the World Detective Organization, which suggests he is an excellent detective.
That said, he is somewhat weak-kneed, and his agency's policy is to stay quiet and refrain from any overt behavior that might lead to conflict with the Amaterasu Corporation Peacekeepers.
Amaterasu Corporation
It deals in a wide variety of goods such as industrial products, electronic appliances, and pharmaceuticals, all of which can be found across all aspects of daily life. On the other hand, many dark rumors surround the company, leading to a saying among detectives: "Kick it and the dust comes off like a wall of smoke." Despite that, both the government and the World Detective Organization have been unable to intervene because of its great influence.
