Mushitarō Oguri

Mushitaro Oguri (小栗 虫太郎) is a member of the Rats in the House of the Dead. His ability is The Perfect Crime.

Appearance
Oguri is a young man with dark hair slicked over to the left of his forehead. The pupils of his yellow eyes consist of several rings. He is very expressive. He dresses sharply, wearing a neat, fitting suit.

Personality
Oguri is a somewhat struck-up man who takes pride in his Ability. He is not a particularly loyal member of the Rats, saying that it only serves to fulfill his own goals. For example, when he meets Fyodor Dostoyevsky, he demands a base of operations all for himself, including a bookshelf with occult books and fine china tableware. He is a formidable opponent against Ranpo Edogawa due to his Ability. However, he easily breaks when his old friend Yokomizo is brought to mind.

He is interested in occult practices, and occasionally blurts out sentences related to it.

Ability
His ability, The Perfect Crime (完全犯罪), allows him to erase any evidence of a crime perfectly. It takes the form of small, invisible creatures coming out of his body and tampering with objects. It can cause even a great detective like Ranpo to get stumped.

Trivia

 * Ranpo often calls him 'the Cleaner' due to his Ability.
