Added DiffLines:

A 24-year-old hacker who previously worked for the Cyber Crimes Division at HQ. He quit after a few months for personal reasons. He's exceptionally smart and skilled, though he's self-centered, brusque, and is always looking for some way to use people to his advantage. Sasazuka doesn't trust others easily and also has a strong dislike of guns due to past events in his life. In mild contrast to his harsh exterior, he's got a pretty serious sweet tooth.


Added DiffLines:

Kageyuki Shiraishi is a 29-year-old active duty cop who works in the Crime Lab as a profiler. He's the Director of the Field Ops department set up to solve the X-Day Incidents. Shiraishi always has a smile on his face, but his words and actions make it impossible for anyone to actually know what he's thinking at any point in time. He's a huge fan of observing cats and humans and is quick to cut ties with anyone he feels bored by. The protagonist's collar and the emotions she has in relation to it seem to fascinate him.

A 26-year-old active police officer who works as an SP (Special Police) Officer curently assigned to protect Aiji Yanagi and the other people at the Detective Agency. The reason that he's not assigned to protect a VIP is not made readily apparent. He's usually calm, and can seem like a bit of an airhead because he doesn't care at all about what other people think, simply discarding any opinions that conflict with his desired course of action.

* DeclarationOfProtection: A large climax in his route is reached when he decides that Ichika is worth protecting.

Added DiffLines:

Yanagi is a chain-smoking 28-year-old former cop with a strong sense of justice who was assigned to Investigations Section 1, but he left to pursue the X-Day cases on his own. After realizing there was a limit to the amount of progress he'd able to make on his own, he formed a group with Mineo Enomoto, Takeru Sasazuka, and Kageyuki Shiraishi. He's a natural, though reluctant, leader. Level-headed, thoughtful, and reliable, he tends to avoid jumping into conflict in favor of being able to hear both sides of an issue.

Mineo Enomoto is a 23-year-old former member of Shinjuku Station's Field Ops Team 2. He's very impulsive and often rushes headlong into things. He's honest to a fault, and is able to charm and befriend people very quickly. Because he's always opening his mouth without thinking, Takeru Sasazuka will often chide him for being an idiot, and the two often fight. When he first meets the protagonist, he's quite suspicious about her and her connection to Adonis.

* CannotTalkToWomen: Is revealed that he stammers and freezes up with a woman.

* StepfordSmiler: While Mineo acts flippant, he is containing a lot of trauma and hesitance underneath that smile.
