Detective 772

"My parents were clowns. — Detective 772."

Detective 772 is one of the higher-ranking detectives in the competition. His name is a number that changes with every mystery he solves, but what he defines as a "mystery" is kind of broad. The Fourth Class detectives refer to him as "Heck."

Appearance
He wears an oversized tan jumpsuit, with belts wrapped his limbs.

Personality
772 has a very goofy personality, but his wacky jokes hide a calmer, more philosophical personality.

Method
772's method, Joke, is simply to make jokes about various pieces of evidence. Coming up with a joke lets him see the evidence in a new way, which can often lead to revelations about the mystery. He also has many other gimmicks, such as standing on his head, running around, slapping himself in the face, and wearing a clown nose, all of which he claims helps him solve crime.

His jokes tend to involve fish, ducks, and bananas, which he thinks are the funniest things in the world.
