Description
Makoto Tsuzuki, a 28-year-old literary genius, carries a perpetually grumpy and stubborn demeanor that intensifies as publishing deadlines loom. Professionally, he harbors deep disdain for the narcotics authorities, viewing them as fundamentally incompetent, a perspective fueling his standoffish nature.
His family defines him: two younger siblings, popular actor Kyosuke Tsuzuki and an unnamed sister, remain his only family, commanding his fierce protectiveness. Despite outward reluctance, Makoto secretly monitors Kyosuke's acting career, checking every drama he appears in.
A pivotal event shapes his cynicism. Years ago, his younger sister suffered severe injuries in a drug-related car accident. The case went unsolved due to perceived negligence by the narcotics unit, particularly investigator Masayoshi Ida. Makoto holds the authorities directly responsible, cementing his resentment. This fuels his refusal to let Kyosuke star in a drama adaptation of his novel, fearing further exploitation of their family tragedy.
Professionally, he publicly announces retirement, citing disillusionment with creating popular but unfulfilling work. This declaration masks his true intent: dedicating himself entirely to a new, deeply personal novel centered on his siblings, prioritizing family devotion over fame or commercial success.
Within ongoing drug investigations, Makoto possesses crucial information regarding Masayoshi Ida's whereabouts, linking back to his sister's unsolved case and the "Plus case." Authorities seek his cooperation to locate Ida, positioning Makoto as a key, albeit deeply reluctant, figure due to his profound mistrust of the narcotics unit.
His interactions often appear abrasive or dismissive, especially towards figures like Rei Izumi during recruitment attempts. He describes a methodology involving calculated relationships with women who serve as models for his novels, suggesting a pragmatic detachment in personal connections for professional ends. Moments reveal vulnerability beneath his harsh exterior, such as his expressed fear of losing his sense of self through constant acting.
Physically, Makoto stands 175 cm tall, framed by olive-colored dark hair and golden eyes.
