I think this role is too similar to the psychic and the sheriff. In fact, one could say this is just a sheriff with psychic results, which makes it both too powerful and boring. Sorry, I personally just can't see this working in-game. Maybe with some tweaks it could be interesting, but in its current state, I don't think it would really work.

In case you didn't understand, here's a demonstration:

A is Sensator
B is Doctor
C is Doctor's Target

A visits B, senses whether C is Town, NB or evil. That's how it works.

That just makes it more confusing Sheriff but also a direct upgrade as it can see suspicious-immune roles.

Yeah, now that you've clarified, it's just more confusing. I think that this role like this is very situational and a bit unbalanced.

Which is why it's only balanced around investigating once per 2 days.

Still seems like a worse Sheriff, one that has very little use considering you dont even know who your target visited, what your target does, no roles whatsoever are revealed. All you get to know is "this random visited a town role, out of the 9 town that are in the game".
Damn I'm too lazy to add anything.

If you see "Purple Popcorn" in your game I love you.
