I've done my fair share of undercover work. Typically not as a homicide detective but despite the fact that I'm of a higher rank now, doing detective work is much, much easier.
[ He hates doing undercover work. He's not even convinced that he's much good at it, but he must be, because he got assigned to it again and again. They had used the excuse that he looked young at first, then the excuse that he was slim and Seolite and therefore easier to overlook. In any case, it was difficult, dangerous work. Even moreso because he generally did it alone. He'd gotten into his fair share of thorny situations too.
It's where most of the black marks on his record came from, deaths that weigh heavy on his conscience, but less heavy than Kim suspects they ought to. Still, he came away from the experience without the ability to take on three oni single-handed, so there are bits and pieces of the story that he's missing.
He crosses his arms, thinking. ]
But even I never went undercover to investigate my fellow cops. [ The idea is ghastly. Awful though they are, they're his brothers. The only family Kim's ever known, really. He would do it without complaint if assigned, particularly if the offenses they were accused of were dire enough, but he would hate every moment of it. Kamui's story still doesn't make total sense (he would only need to be able to stay alive in the instance of staying caught, surely; after that, the cavalry should have been sent in) but Kim's aware he's receiving an extremely truncated version of events. There's plenty of questions he could ask. In the end, he asks what he feels is the most pertinent one: ] Were you successful?
