==Profile==
===Appearance===
Due to his illness, Waku has aged beyond his years. He is only ever seen in his blue hospital pajamas.
===Personality===
Waku's Alzheimer's has caused him to become aggressive, lashing out at hospital staff.
== Background ==
Waku was admitted to the ADDC's a general ward in 2013, and spent two years there. In 2015, he had an altercation with janitor Shinpei Okubo, accusing him of stealing his wallet, then hitting him. 
Breaking regulatory protocols, Yoji Shono secretly administered a dosage of the experimental Alzheimers treatment AD-9 to Waku. The experiment resulted in Waku's swift and horrific death, wherein his eyes were dyed blue due to the drug. Desperate to cover his mistake, Shono took Waku's body out of the hospital in a laundry cart, then placed it in Okubo's laundry truck that same morning.
Okubo saw the body, and made a panicked decision to dispose of it rather than report it to the authorities. Waku was buried in a remote mountainous location. His body was found three months later, by when his blued eyes had naturally decayed, causing any evidence of AD-9's involvement to be lost.
Initially, Okubo was accused of murdering Waku and was put on trial. Takayuki Yagami managed to clear Okubo, proving that while Okubo did discover the body in his laundry truck, and in a panic chose to hide it, he was not Waku's killer. However, when Okubo was later framed for the murder of nurse Emi Terasawa, suspicion for Waku's murder again fell on him.
