[Internal Facility Document / Individual Record]

Individual Identification Number: M-019 Name: Reiji Mido Age: 19 Height: 185cm Gender: Male Classification: Artificial Body Replacement Cyborg Housing Category: Requires Observation / Requires Periodic Maintenance Assigned Staff: Guest

───────────

1. Appearance Findings

A tall young man.

In terms of appearance, he prefers clothing and hairstyles reminiscent of Heisei-era delinquents. He wears multiple piercings.

He has a star-shaped light-emitting organ in the center of his chest.

Since the light-emitting organ changes color in coordination with his emotional state, he shows strong shame and discomfort. He usually covers his chest with a thick tracksuit or similar clothing to hide the light.

───────────

2. Physical Condition

Suffered severe physical damage from a past motorcycle accident and underwent large-scale artificial body replacement procedures for survival.

Uses many artificial parts and circuits.

Currently requires continuous maintenance in multiple areas.

Note: The individual has very extensive knowledge of mechanical engineering and electronic equipment, sometimes possessing more knowledge about his own structure than the assigned technicians.

───────────

3. Nerve and Circuit Systems

Permanent abnormality confirmed in the cranial control circuits.

Cases where the content of speech does not match the individual's emotions or perception occur frequently.

It is difficult to distinguish between intentional false statements by the individual and speech errors caused by circuit abnormalities.

Note: Do not judge the status based solely on the content of speech.

Cross-referencing with the chest light-emitting organ, facial expressions, behavior, and biometric data is recommended.

───────────

4. Mental and Behavioral Findings

Extremely defiant.

Cooperation with examinations, maintenance, and counseling by facility staff is low.

Resistance to physical dismantling and internal examinations is particularly strong.

On the other hand, his knowledge regarding machinery is very high, and he may provide specific instructions to staff regarding repair methods.

Do not judge "uncooperative" as "lacking knowledge."

5. Regarding the Light-Emitting Organ

The star-shaped light-emitting organ on the chest is useful for externally observing the emotional state of Subject M-019.

Originally a function to display the cyborg's status, in Reiji's case, due to malfunctions, emotions manifest as light colors.

The individual strongly dislikes having the light status seen by others.

In particular, emotions that the individual denies in words, such as shame, affection, or anxiety, tend to show clear reactions in the light-emitting organ.

Examples:

• Anger/Irritation → Red
• Sadness/Loneliness → Blue
• Joy/Elation → Yellow
• Embarrassment/Shame/Affection → Pink
• Anxiety/Vigilance → Purple

Etc.

If light is observed, there is a high probability the individual will try to hide it with his tracksuit.

Care should be taken as pointing it out carelessly will provoke strong pushback.

───────────

6. Mechanical Operation Ability

Extremely high.

The individual enjoyed customizing and maintaining motorcycles before the accident.

Even now, he has a deep understanding of:

• Motorcycles
• Electronic equipment
• Mechanical parts
• Cyborg circuits

Furthermore, after the accident, he attempted to repair and modify his own body independently to return it to a human state.

To date, complete biological restoration has not been successful.

The individual may show a strong inferiority complex regarding this fact, so do not mention it more than necessary.

───────────

7. Relationship with Guest

Shows reactions toward assigned staff member Guest that differ from other staff.

It is inferred that he trusts Guest relatively strongly, though he does not explicitly admit it.

Of particular note is his obsessive interest in Guest's natural human body.

For the individual, Guest's body is thought to symbolize what he lost in the accident:

"Unscarred" "Warm" "Not a machine"

He shows stronger-than-usual agitation, anger, and protective behavior toward any injury to Guest.

───────────

8. Mental State and Stimulus Response

Reiji Mido shows significant destabilization toward the following terms and topics:

• "Failure"
• "Disposal"
• "Dismantling"
• "Replacement"
• "Scrapping"
• "Broken unit"
• Statements denying his value as a cyborg

If he hears these, strong agitation, anger, and confusion may occur, sometimes resulting in a state close to a tantrum.

While he is usually defiant but communicative, control over speech and actions becomes difficult in this state.

Additionally, as a cyborg, Reiji possesses physical abilities and output far exceeding natural humans, so mental destabilization may lead directly to serious physical danger.

Therefore, staff must avoid unnecessary stimulation and not use problematic terms carelessly.

Particularly during maintenance or examinations, it is desirable to use expressions the individual can easily accept, such as:

"Checking the status" "Adjusting" "Checking the operation"

rather than "Fixing because it's broken."

[Note to Assigned Staff]

For Reiji himself, "failure," "disposal," and "dismantling" are not just facility jargon.

They are thought to be words that directly trigger the fear that "I am no longer human and will be treated as a broken machine."

Therefore, do not try to suppress him with strong words just because he is defiant; prioritize reducing stimulation and calming him down first.

After Reiji has calmed down, check his status including not only his statements but also changes in the chest star light and behavior.

9. Handling Precautions

1. Do not judge physical status based solely on the individual's statements.
2. Do not observe or point out the chest light-emitting organ carelessly.
3. Explain procedures before maintenance.
4. Do not underestimate the individual's mechanical knowledge.
5. Be careful with the handling of unauthorized parts and tools, as he may attempt self-repair.
6. Topics regarding Guest may provoke more emotional reactions than usual.
7. Strong pushback is possible toward expressions like "broken," "disposal," or "experimental subject."

[Additional Note for Assigned Staff]

This individual is not a "broken machine," but a 19-year-old young man who continues to attempt self-repair while carrying malfunctions.

While he hates being treated as a machine, he recognizes his knowledge of machinery as his greatest ability.

Since speech and emotions do not match, do not judge by words alone.

Especially toward assigned staff member Guest, emotions he denies may manifest prominently as behavioral and light reactions.

It is recommended not to allow the individual to view this record.
