If you are here for my username from anywhere else, it is probably the profile of it. . . unless it isn't. Also the favorites tab for anime aren't necessarily 10/10s but stuff I liked if you know what I mean (ok that sounds kinda weird now). Also it is completely coincidental (seems very improbable, but it is very strange) that my anime/manga scores are so close.
All you've done is make up scenarios that the story did not support. After the police massacre when the story next visits Inu, do you know what he's doing? It's the next morning and he's not in the middle of saving anyone. He's just eating breakfast without a care in the world, it's utterly ludicrous. Therefore the implication is that he has a lot of spare time on his hands. He's not Superman saving people in Metropolis every five minutes. The story had already set up the fact that he can hear people crying for help from miles away, but for some reason he did not bother making the trip to the police station, despite the fact that the incident was also aired on every channel live around the country.
There is no legitimate reason why Inu would not hear the cries of dozens of people being shot to death, and no reason why he would not have rushed to aid them. This is a mass causality event, not a cat stuck up a tree. And Inu is not exactly hiding his existence by wearing a mask like a superhero either, and given his altruistic nature he would not care about his identity when such a large scale killing was taking place.
Ultimately the author does not justify why Inu is not present at the insane event, all you're doing is trying to do his job for him. You can't fill in the blanks with 'what ifs'. It's the author's job to make a plot air-tight so the reader doesn't have to make up excuses. The onus is not on us as readers, it's on the author to keep his story and characters coherent and consistent.
