Kill on Sight

Show spoilers/Hide spoilers

**Kill on Sight** (『犯人殺す病』, *Han'nin korosu yamai*, lit. "disease that kills the criminal") is Ron Kamonohashi's ability to pressure murderers into killing themselves. It is his "fatal flaw" which has cost him his detective license.

## Overview

Kill on Sight is automatically triggered whenever Ron Kamonohashi hears someone confess to having committed murder. Ron has no control over his "pathological culprit killing," and the ability does not activate for any other kind of criminal.

When Kill on Sight is activated, a strange, colorful glaze lays itself on Ron's and the culprit's eyes. In this state, Ron becomes firm and stoic and does not listen to what others say. He always begins his pressuring by telling the murderer how they should commit suicide before he proceeds to tell them that they have "no right" to exist in this world anymore due to their actions. Afterward, Ron has no recollection of his actions.

According to Mofu Usaki, it is not a hereditary ability, and Aimee Emmerich states that Ron received it with his "96"-scar while he was treated for his injuries after the Bloody Field Trip Case. Mylo Moriarty later confirms that an M. Family spy at BLUE modified Ron's body and gave him this ability.

### Treatment

Later, Mofu manages to create an experimental medicine to suppress Kill on Sight. It works by redirecting Ron's murderous intent to his innards, causing him to rot away from within with each dose. The medication also makes Ron lose consciousness, gives him nightmares for a day, and makes him experience memories from the past.

Months later, the side effects do not stop after a day of sleeping anymore. Ron feels drowsy for a prolonged period and constantly falls asleep, even days after taking the medicine.

### Workings

Kill on Sight is a kind of subconsciously-activated "hypnosis." When the ability is active, Ron draws his target's attention strongly to his eyes; this ensures that his voice goes directly into the target's mind. When Ron issues a powerful suggestion, suicidal impulses are drawn out in the target.

People can shield themselves from Kill on Sight by filtering Ron's voice through a sound alteration device. Winter Moriarty and Mylo used such devices to protect themselves. However, when Ron gets particularly angry while using Kill on Sight, the device cannot counteract his ability.

Ron can also control people to do other things besides committing suicide, e.g., he once commanded Mylo to drop his gun.

Following his defeat in the Tragic Cruise Serial Murders Case, Mylo leaves behind a flash drive with all data on Kill on Sight. Mofu analyzes the data and can determine the cause of Ron's "culprit-killing syndrome." This makes her confident that she can cure Ron's brain. Later on, Mofu states there is "no need for [Ron] to worry about [his] illness" anymore, implying that Ron was seemingly cured, or that Kill on Sight was sufficiently reined in at least.
