Master Detectives of the World Detective Organization
An extra-legal, extra-privileged organization devoted to eradicating the world’s unsolved mysteries. Their branches exist throughout the world, one of which is the Nocturnal Detective Agency in Kanai Ward. The key players in their activities are Master Detectives who possess Forensic Fortes, but ordinary detectives are also enlisted. Protagonist Yuma Kokohead suffers from amnesia. His background is unknown, but he was in possession of documents indicating that he was sent to Kanai Ward as a detective-in-training at the agency.
