Ron Kamonohashi/Relations

==Totomaru Isshiki==
Totomaru is Ron's investigative partner or, as Ron jokingly calls him, "puppet" as he "controls" him from the shadows. Ron tells him the solution to cases, and Totomaru presents them as his own deductions as Ron is banned from doing any detective work himself.
At the beginning, Ron is seemingly only using Totomaru to continue detective work and satisfy his urge to solve cases. However, Ron grows fond of Totomaru and starts to trust him and feel secure in his presence. He even refers to Totomaru as his friend. John Grizzly notes that Totomaru is Ron's first friend and the first person to speak fondly of Ron as he used to be rather closed off when he was younger and nobody could get close to him.
In turn, Totomaru also regards Ron as his friend and can understand him and his feelings even if Ron himself cannot.
==Kiku==
Kiku is the father of an old classmate of Ron's. He seems to genuinely care for Ron and even sent him a cat to keep him company. He is eager to get Ron back in business as he often sent young detectives to him in the hope that Ron would find a partner in one of them until Kiku finally succeeded with Totomaru Isshiki.
==Omito Kawasemi==
At first, Ron feels jealous of Kawasemi since, unlike him, Kawasemi can arrest culprits without killing them. Because of this, he wants to solve the Hand Collector Killer Case before Kawasemi. 
Kawasemi is also not very fond of Ron upon their first encounter, being suspicious of him in his "Kamomi Tekemono" disguise and thinking that something is "off" about him.
The case then ends with Kawasemi and Ron on friendly terms. Later, when Kawasemi falls into a slump, Ron helps him to get over it.
Kawasemi also knows about the relationship between Ron and Toto, but keeps it to himself.
==Mofu Usaki==
Mofu is part of Ron's favorite TV show "Lie or Truth? ESP!!," and they meet during the Live Broadcast Murder Case. They get along from the start. Ron even comes to trust Mofu enough to tell her the truth about his and Totomaru's detective work, and she fully supports their endeavor.
Ron eventually seeks her out to get his "pathological culprit killing" examined and treated, and Mofu manages to create medicine for it, albeit a rather experimental one.
Later on, Ron helps her move into the Maison du Kamonohashi after she was kicked out of her condo.
==Chicory Monki==
Ron is very interested in cultivating a good relationship between Chicory and Toto as he hopes that Chicory, a crime reporter, could be a valuable source for information on cases. He encourages her to consult Toto about all difficult cases she finds and wants to use her connections to find and solve cases all over Japan.
In turn, Chicory is irritated by Ron as she believes that he is only hindering and intimidating Totomaru. She also dislikes it that he always acts "high and mighty" although he is not a detective. However, when Ron later states that he wants to become a police detective like Toto, Chicory gives him her full support.
