Yukito Ayatsuji

Yukito Ayatsuji (綾辻 行人,) is a detective and one of the main characters in the spin-off novel.

Personality
Ayatsuji appears as a cold and emotionless man, though is considered to be fairly odd, as he has a basement full of dolls.

Ayatsuji is also very intelligent (as expected of a detective), and he may or not be just on the same level as Ranpo.

But Ayatsuji is a very dangerous man, dangerous enough to be seen as a threat by the government and to be put on the list of Extremely Dangerous Ability Users.

Ability
Another allows Ayatsuji to see through the criminal in a murder case, and they will always die an accidental death, no matter where they are in the world. The cause of death cannot be predicted. No deaths will result if the target is not a criminal.

Background
He is on the list of Extremely Dangerous Ability Users, and is thus being closely monitored by the Special Ability Department; agent Mizuki Tsujimura is assigned to watch him.

A plan called 'Exterminate Extremely Dangerous Ability User, Ayatsuji Yukito’ gets submitted to the higher-ups in the Special Ability Department 2-3 times a week but continues to get rejected due to the usefulness of his ability.
