In his confrontation with [[Ryu Munakata]], Naka is shown to be even colder, demanding that Munakata "talk or die". He also claims to have killed 20 people before. It would seem that Nakategawa's true allegiances lie with the [[FSO]] or some other higher purpose, but [[Sakura Natsume]] claims that Naka is actually more upset than anyone over having to "take out his friends" in the HCU.

It is strongly suggested that Nakategawa is a pedophile. Most explicitly, when asked if he's into Chizuru, he says he's into "younger" girls (with quotation marks). (In the Japanese script, he outright uses the word 'lolicon'.) We can only hope that he has never acted on this.

===Backstory===
 +
Nakategawa was a high-ranking member of the [[FSO]] frontier faction, and participated in the Ayame Maspro portion of the [[Shelter Kids Policy]]. At some point he worked for the Public Security Department, and as an undercover specialist in the Department of Intelligence, before joining the Heinous Crimes Unit some time in the 1990s. As part of Unit 1, he provided support for Unit 2's on-site investigations. In October of 1997, he investigated a series of [[Moonlight Syndrome|serial murders]] of high school girls, of which the school principal turned out to be the culprit. At an unknown point he tutored the rookie HCU member [[Yoshimitsu Koshimizu]].

===''The Silver Case''===
 +
On March 29th, 1999, Naka briefed the other HCU members on the events surrounding the murder of [[Yuriko Sonoda]], and her relationship with her assumed killer [[Kamui Fujiwara|Kamui Uehara]]. On April 29th, he informed the others that [[Ayame Shimohira]] had admitted to the string of murders, and would likely receive the death pentalty. He also relayed information on Kamui's past in the Shelters. Naka was later assigned to the investigation of a threatening letter received by [[Chairman Yukimura]]. He played a minor support role in the events of {{CL|2}} and {{CL|3}}.

On August 22nd, Naka briefed the HCU members on the recent disappearances connected to Internet crimes. He told them the story of the [[missing girl]], who had been drawn into the city's night-life before mysteriously disappearing. He tasked [[Akira]] with finding the girl. On August 24th, Naka purchased two passwords to a candid live-feed of the idol [[Sayaka Baian]], which he also recorded to sell later. According to the missing girl, Naka cried after learning of Baian's suicide. The next day, he informed the team about the details of the suicide and the arrest of the hardcore Baian fan-club. On September 9th, Naka told the team about the emergence of [[Method Tank]], and watched the end of the countdown.

 +
On November 30th, Naka briefed the others on Unit 2's dissolution, his promotion to Chief Director of the HC Unit, and the addition of [[Sakura Natsume]] and [[Kenta Mikoshiba]] to the team. He then informed them of the plan to lead Kamui to the roof of the [[IEDU Building]]. After learning of [[Shinji Kotobuki]]'s death, he ordered Mikoshiba to dispose of [[Tetsugoro Kusabi]]. That night he provided remote support for the operation, directing Akira and Sakura to patrol different floors. On December 24th, he instructed Sakura and Mikoshiba to eliminate Kusabi and [[Kiyoshi Morikawa]] for abandoning their mission. Later that night, he met with [[Ryu Munakata]] at the [[Harakiri Batting Center]]. He questioned Munakata about his allegience to the [[TRO]], and the whereabouts of Kusabi and Morikawa. While holding Munakata at gunpoint, he told him about his role in the Shelter Kids Policy, and that in reality all of the factions are just part of [[Elbow|one group]]. Before Naka could pull the trigger, he was shot and killed by Munakata.

Nakategawa was briefly mentioned in [[Request 12: I Got Rhythm]] by Koshimizu, who recalled his training under Naka.
