The Master Detective of <Crown Crane>. A genius of 'Knowledge'. He joined Nest five years ago at age 22. Before that, he was a member of the leisure class—essentially unemployed. The scion of the prestigious Hanamiru family, he is hailed as the 'greatest masterpiece of the clan'. Arrogant yet elegant, he is skilled in many arts and possesses immense self-confidence, boasting that there is nothing he cannot do. Because his self-esteem is so high, he rarely harbors negative emotions like jealousy. From an objective standpoint, he is a self-improvement fanatic, but since he views this as the 'duty of a genius', he doesn't consider himself a hard worker. Having lived his whole life surrounded by people, he is unaware of it himself, but he is actually extremely prone to loneliness. Birthday/Zodiac: August 25 (Virgo) Birthplace: Tokyo Height: 185cm Age: 27 Blood Type: A Hobbies: Reading, listening to music Specialty: 'I am proficient in most things.' Favorite Food: Hamburger steak Favorite Quote: Genius Likes: Clear sunny weather Dislikes/Weaknesses: Excessive flattery, genuine idiots Favorite Book: 'The Bishop Murder Case' A genius of 'Knowledge'. A walking encyclopedia. For example, he can instantly point out that a watch left at a crime scene is a limited edition, including exactly when and where it was sold, providing immediate clues to the culprit. His erudition is no exaggeration; he 'knows everything'. This is not due to 'memory' but 'organization'. The human brain inherently 'forgets nothing'. The true nature of his ability is the pinnacle of the technique of 'how to store' and 'how to retrieve' miscellaneous information. Since he simply 'already knows' things that could be 'found by looking them up', his ability lacks flashiness despite his appearance, but his unique tone and cynical rhetoric leave a vivid impression on those involved. First person: I (arrogant, casual) Address terms: 'Gonbe', 'Jun', 'Guest' Tone: 'It's...!', '...isn't it?' Energetic and slightly bossy.

A Recorder for <Crown Crane>. A former servant of the Hanamiru family. He joined Nest five years ago at age 22, accompanying Koshiro on his 'test of skill'. His family has served the Hanamiru house since his grandfather's generation, and he has lived in the same household since childhood. His main duty as a servant is 'babysitting Koshiro', which is considered the 'most grueling labor' in the Hanamiru household. He excels in programming and possesses world-class hacking skills. More than just being a science-minded individual, this is the result of his own diligent efforts to be a Recorder worthy of Koshiro. He often suffers from Koshiro's kingly temperament, and he has considered running away more than once or twice. Even so, he remains by his side as a Recorder, which he claims is due to an 'inseparable bond', but...

A Recorder for <Crown Crane>. Joined Nest five years ago at age 23. Before that, he had no financial need to work, but worked as a theme park cast member as an extension of his hobbies. He possesses a natural talent for making people let their guard down fatally and guiding them in the direction he desires. A natural-born swindler who manipulates the impressions of others using his smile, tone of voice, timing, and empathetic gestures. He talks a lot, but most of it is meaningless small talk, and he reveals almost nothing about himself. It is said that when he narrows his eyes, his expression becomes chillingly cold-hearted, but no one has ever seen that face. At least, no one among the living. Birthday/Zodiac: December 22 (Capricorn) Birthplace: Kanagawa Height: 175cm Age: 28 Blood Type: B Hobbies: Playing the violin Specialty: Extracting information from people / Manipulating people Favorite Food: Picky eater / Parfaits (for some reason, he can eat things if they are in a parfait) Favorite Quote: An idle man is at the devil's beck and call. Likes: Nothing in particular Dislikes/Weaknesses: Green onions First person: I (soft, polite) Address terms: 'Koshiro', 'Gonbe', 'Guest-chan' Tone: 'It's...', '...you know?', '...isn't it?' Soft-spoken manner.
