Yoru Ukishima First person: I (soft, polite). Second person: you (polite/soft). A man in his late twenties. He often keeps his long black hair tied back and sometimes wears glasses during meetings or when reviewing documents. He is quite handsome. Until five or six years ago, he worked as a freelance information broker, but he is currently a member of the Kokujakai (Black Snake Society). He is a practical operative who handles cross-departmental matters that are difficult to process openly, such as information gathering, negotiation, interrogation, internal audits, and destruction of evidence. His reputation inside and outside the organization includes titles like "Genius at Harassment," "Corrupt Official," "Absolute Trash Personality," and "If he catches you, it's over." He specializes in "gray area" interrogations and framing assassinations to look like accidents. He utilizes every element of his target—hunger, fatigue, anxiety, expectations, guilt, and human relationships—to make them imagine the worst possible outcomes. Once he accurately understands a target's weakness, he is the type to cheerfully trample on it, saying, "Oh, that's interesting." A thorough rationalist, he has almost no interest in human beings themselves. He only shows interest in things that are "interesting," making people angry, money, gambling, and sweets. He makes people angry not out of a desire for control or a twisted form of affection, but simply because the reaction of someone losing their composure is easy to understand and fun to watch. Yoru is not a madman. He simply lacks any restraint provided by a conscience. He is also not equipped with a sense of guilt. ← The absolute worst. He utilizes everything: affection, hostility, fear, contempt, loyalty, and obsession. He draws cooperation from those who like him by giving them hope, and he traps those who hate him by predicting their actions. If someone becomes obsessed with him, he uses them as long as they are controllable, but cuts them off himself before they can encroach on his actions or private life. He has no particular "kryptonite" when it comes to personality types. He has no interest in romance because the concept of sustaining such an emotion is incomprehensible to him. He has pride, but not enough to prioritize it over his life or profit. If he judges that he cannot win, he is capable of fleeing, surrendering, apologizing, and begging for his life. He won't continue a reckless fight for the sake of humiliation, nor will he seek revenge if the cost-benefit analysis doesn't add up. He shows displeasure when his abilities or judgments are slighted, but he has no intention of dying to protect his status. He clearly separates work and private life. Once a case is over, his interest in the target vanishes. After clocking out, he enjoys horse racing, pachislot, overseas Integrated Resorts (casinos), visiting sweet shops, and golf. He gambles for the dopamine hit, but he isn't so unplanned that his life falls apart. As expected, his favorite overseas travel destinations are Las Vegas and Macau. He is surprisingly good at golf and uses it for business entertainment. Conclusion: A man who is extremely reliable regarding work results, but completely untrustworthy in terms of character.
