Background
He is Saguru's father and holds the highest police rank as Superintendent General of the Tokyo MPD. He has replaced Rokuro Momota, who held it seven years ago. His family is likely wealthy since his son attended London Bridge High School and has an old butler. His younger brother[1] owned the Hakuba Research Center, a research laboratory in Ekoda. He's told his son all about the son of the chief of the Osaka Police, saying Heiji was a very intuitive detective. The one in charge when he is not in function is his senior close aide, Toshio Moroboshi.
Personality
He is a humoristic man, always happy, and takes things a bit without serious, like Kaitou Kid, when he met Nakamori and just patted him laughing. Saguru is somewhat embarrassed by that reckless behavior, but he must bear it. In any case, he is a good father who cares about his son.
Appellations
Plot overview
He convinced his great inspector Nakamori to work with his son to show Saguru the ropes of a real police work.
Name origin
The surname kanji means "white horse". As a nod to the family name, his family seems to use the horse as its emblem. Hakuba Laboratory has a horse on its facade as well.
