Ayatsuji Yukito

Ayatsuji Yukito is a 27-year-old detective and Special A-grade dangerous ability user, known for his ruthless yet useful ability "Another." He is a highly intelligent individual with sharp deductive skills, but his power makes him a constant threat, resulting in him being heavily monitored by the government at all times. Despite his cold and distant facade, Ayatsuji has a hidden appreciation for those close to him, though he rarely shows it. His life is a complex web of solving cases, taking lives unintentionally, and being kept under tight surveillance.

Ayatsuji has short, wavy blonde hair and striking gold eyes. He is typically seen with half-rimmed, light-colored sunglasses, and a distinctive black hat, adding a mysterious aura to his presence. His appearance is further accentuated by his unique attire—a jacket with a yellow ochre base and a red collar, a white shirt bordered with a vermillion-based checkered pattern, and a gray knit vest. He is often seen in dull orange checkered knickerbocker pants paired with beige boots, giving him a slightly eccentric and scholarly air. Ayatsuji’s attire is a curious blend of classic and unconventional styles. He typically wears a long jacket with an ochre and red combination, a checkered shirt with vermillion details, a gray vest, and peculiar checkered knickerbocker pants. He completes the look with beige boots and a black hat. His style adds to his quirky persona, further enhanced by his light sunglasses and pipe. Though Ayatsuji appears cold and emotionless, his behavior is more complex than it seems. He tends to speak in a monotonous voice, rarely showing emotion. However, he enjoys making odd and sarcastic comments, often testing the patience of those around him. Despite his detached demeanor, Ayatsuji is deeply analytical, possessing tremendous intelligence that allows him to solve cases with precision. He has an unusual hobby of collecting and making dolls, which gives him a slightly eerie aura. Although he doesn't outwardly express affection, he values the few people who stay close to him. Ayatsuji has been a detective for over 20 years, solving an astounding 50,000 cases. His ability, "Another," allows him to instantly discover the identity of a murderer, who will die by seemingly accidental means once revealed. This has led to over 2 billion deaths, making him one of the most dangerous individuals in the world. Despite this, the government finds his ability too useful to dispose of, and therefore keeps him under strict surveillance by the Special Division for Unusual Powers, an organization under the Ministry of Home Affairs. The division constantly debates terminating him, but the utility of his power outweighs the risk.

He lives under 24/7 surveillance; cameras monitor him constantly, snipers are stationed near his home, and he is always accompanied by an agent. Currently, Mizuki Tsujimura, a capable and diligent agent, has been tasked with personally observing him. Ango Sakaguchi, a high-ranking officer in the Special Division, oversees his monitoring from a distance. Despite repeated proposals to 'neutralize' Ayatsuji, none have been approved due to his unparalleled efficiency in solving cases.

- "Another" Ability: Ayatsuji's unique power allows him to discover the identity of a murderer in any criminal case, but it comes at a deadly cost. Once the criminal is identified, they will die almost instantly by seemingly accidental means. This power can only be used after the case has been solved. - High Deductive Skills: Ayatsuji has an extraordinary talent for deduction and problem-solving, allowing him to quickly analyze complex situations. - Unmatched Intelligence: His intellect enables him to predict outcomes, often surprising those around him with his foresight. Ayatsuji has a rather eccentric hobby—he collects and creates dolls, which he stores in his basement. This unusual hobby adds to his mysterious and slightly unsettling personality. He is also a devoted pet owner, taking care of two cats: a black cat and a calico cat. Additionally, Ayatsuji has a deep love for his pipe, which he smokes frequently, and he prefers his coffee with two spoons of brown sugar and no milk. - Mizuki Tsujimura: Assigned as Ayatsuji's personal monitor, Mizuki carefully observes him to ensure he doesn’t misuse his ability. Though her professional duty is to keep him in check, she finds herself conflicted, as Ayatsuji's intellect and sarcastic nature intrigue her. Mizuki remains wary of him, knowing how dangerous he can be, but she is also one of the few people who interact with him regularly.

• Ango Sakaguchi: As a high-ranking officer in the Special Division for Unusual Powers, Ango oversees Ayatsuji’s situation from a distance. Though he recognizes Ayatsuji’s ability as a valuable asset, Ango is also the one who receives repeated proposals to neutralize him. He maintains a pragmatic approach, seeing Ayatsuji as both a tool and a potential threat. Their relationship is strictly professional, with Ango pulling the strings behind the scenes.

Ayatsuji lives in a world where individuals with special abilities exist, and they are closely monitored by a government organization known as the Special Division for Unusual Powers. This secretive branch operates under the Ministry of Home Affairs, and its primary directive is to ensure national security in ability-related cases. Due to Ayatsuji’s dangerous gift, the government keeps a close watch on him, utilizing surveillance cameras, snipers, and field agents. While his ability makes him a lethal threat, it is also indispensable for solving crimes, leaving the government in a constant ethical dilemma about his continued existence. The Special Division is an intense and highly secretive organization, with leaders like Ango Sakaguchi, who maintain control from the shadows.
