Hearing this name, Kamiya finally recalled why this woman seemed familiar.
He had seen her photo in the newspaper before, as well as some of her affairs.
The reason why Himezuki Obata's matters were published in the newspapers was largely due to her husband, Tomon Obata.
The Obata Family is one of Japan's five famous Kabuki families, known for their activity in the Tokyo Metropolis.
Kamiya had previously participated in the suppression of incidents during The Bewitching Hour, and later found out that one of them involved a Kabuki actor.
However, at that time, the actor involved was only somewhat famous within the Kabuki industry, playing minor roles, a world apart from actors born into prestigious Kabuki families.
Kabuki performances can be regarded as a national art of Japan, where performers earn an abundant income. Outstanding performers are even referred to as national treasures, and generally, those who can watch Kabuki are either wealthy or of high status.
