Rokuzou Taguchi

A 14-year-old hacker hired by Kunikida as an informant. His father was a police officer who died in the "Blue Flag Terrorist" incident, caught in the suicide bombing by the "Blue King." Seeking revenge against the detective agency he deemed responsible, he launched a cyber-attack but was tracked down and captured. Instead of turning him over to the military police, Kunikida offered him a job as an informant, partly as an act of atonement for failing to save his father. He was killed in a gunfight with Sasaji, a member of the Blue Apostles, whom he learned about by snooping through Dazai's emails. His name is derived from a character in Kunikida Doppo's novel "Spring Bird."
