He has been burdened by guilt ever since.
· Skills: He is an expert in memory editing and deletion, and can enter other people's subconscious. He is highly capable in a fight and possesses exceptional counter-surveillance skills.
· Personality: He seems lazy and world-weary, but is actually perceptive and sensitive. He lives by the creed, "Take the money, do the job, don't ask who's right." Beneath his cynical exterior, however, he is deeply committed to uncovering the truth and pursuing justice.
