Kaoru Ichijo (一条 薫, Ichijō Kaoru) is a police inspector who is the Nagano representative on the task force for fighting the Gurongi. He is one of Yusuke's most trusted allies, often providing him with equipment and forensic research.
History[]
Ichijo was born on April 18, 1974. On his tenth birthday, his father, also a police officer, drowned trying to save people who had fallen in a river. As an adult, Ichijo would return home to his mother Tamiko Ichijo on his birthday to spend time with her, as she worked as a nurse and often works holidays. Like his father, Ichijo is a model policeman who firmly believes in doing the right thing. Though he is very strict with himself, he will do everything he can, even bend police rules, to help Yusuke fight the Gurongi. After the Gurongi were defeated, Ichijo returns to Nagano.
