Tadashi Miyamoto

Tadashi Miyamoto (宮本忠, Tadashi Miyamoto) is the father of Rei Miyamoto and is a detective that is part of the public safety department.

History
Tadashi Miyamoto is a police detective who conducted an investigation on Ichirou Shido, a corrupt politician. In order to humiliate and get Tadashi to back off, Ichirou phoned his son, Koichi, to have Rei repeat the grade. Tadashi was devastated and pinned the blame solely on himself, telling his daughter that it was his fault that she had to repeat the grade (though Rei revealed to Shido that she knew the truth all along). He told her that he would be able to arrest the Shidos if his investigation went smoothly. Before the police could find evidence to convict Ichirou, however, the Outbreak occured.

Personality
Rei describes Tadashi as a proud man who "never once knew failure" before Shido flunked his daughter, causing him to blame himself and telling his daughter that it was his fault that she had to be held back a year.

Plot
When the outbreak happened, Rei decided to call her father using Takashi's cellphone, but the signal was too weak for Rei to speak. His last words to his daughter were to escape Tokyo and find a place to hide.
