Tena Sorimura

Tena Sorimura (雪車村天鵶 Sorimura Tena), nicknamed the Mystery Solitaire by Tsubaki Iwanome, is one of several troublemakers in Shinjuku who fall under the jurisdiction of Materials Compiling Group No.3.

Appearance
Tena has dark, wavy hair, a pencil mustache, and long bangs that cover eyes shadowed with dark circles. While in the police's custody, his arms are restrained with a white straitjacket worn over a prisoner's uniform; somehow, he manages to free himself from this straitjacket when he makes his escape.

Personality
When he makes his debut, Tena initially comes across as a reticent and subdued individual. However, he is far more emotive as soon as he turns the tables on Iwanome: smiling and animated as he reveals he knows more than he is letting on, and later speaking of the excitement he feels with regards to the new mystery Iwanome has presented him.

Chronology
Prior to the Corpse God's arrival in Shinjuku, Tena is arrested by the Shinjuku Police and kept in a cell in Tokyo Prison, his arms straitjacketed in an attempt to either prevent or make it more difficult for him to escape. By this time, Comps 3 manager Tsubaki Iwanome has nicknamed him 'Mystery Solitaire' as it sounds similar to Tena's real name.

After Lemmings appears at Clarissa's Bar, Iwanome visits Tena with Kozaburo Arase as backup and, from his seat on the other side of an interrogation window, fills him in on the fire at Shakusawa Building and the strange skeletal figures which saved the children trapped inside. Iwanome believes that the fire was caused by the Fire-Breathing Bug, his theory being that the Bug always poses as an insider at the locations he targets and spends a long time methodically planting gunpowder and detonators around the area. However, to do so, the Bug would need to excel and disguises and be able to come and go as the please – just like Tena.

Tena accuses Iwanome of testing him by withholding information, correctly guessing that the true culprit behind the incident is 'Know' - an average criminal who this time appears to be posing as the real Fire-Breathing Bug. When Iwanome had recalled the real Fire-Breathing Bug's calling card to Tena – "This world is a buggy program" – he had left out the second part that only law enforcement is aware of, and listed only the arson locations the media had been made privy to. Iwanome asks how Tena knows all this, but Tena refuses to 'spoil the fun' by answering.

Iwanome exits the room to take a call from the Bureau and, upon returning, says that the real Fire-Breathing Bug attacked a patrol car transporting a pyromaniac. Tena dismissively concludes that the Bug was 'feeding on its imposter', far more interested in the skeletons in the photographs Iwanome had earlier showed him. He asks if Iwanome will let him "watch one last cartoon," likely referring to the photographs, but Iwanome refuses on the grounds that he and Arase need more information from him.

Tena replies that he will have to "watch one elsewhere," and the room's lights switch off. When Arase turns a lit flashlight on Tena's chair, he and Iwanome find it empty and Tena's straitjacket draped over its back.

Outside the prison, a free man once more, Tena announces his 'comeback tour' to the sky.

Trivia

 * His family name, Sorimura (雪車村) means 'snow car village'. The first part of his surname, Ten (天) means 'heaven'; the last part, 'a' (鵶) appears to be an archaic or otherwise uncommon character for the bird crow.
