Neil Hume, 43, a renowned civil lawyer who is also both a professor and a doctoral advisor at the Law School of Stellis University. Neil is very passionate about doing pro bono for the public; he has been traveling extensively alone for his commitments to serving the public. However, he suddenly went missing last year. Neil also had a history of going dark to infiltrate crime organizations, so his friends and relatives have speculated that he must be involved in a certain criminal investigation again.

General

Neil Hume is Artem's mentor and a former NXX Investigation Team member who has been missing since October 2029. He is suspected of possibly having been involved in the disappearance of Giann von Hagen.

Neil was Artem's elementary teacher who was transferred to Stellis University after Artem graduated. Neil would often visit Artem and his family because Neil was close to Artem's parents.

Neil would go on to become a father figure of sorts to Artem; When Artem was young, Neil would take him out for fun once in a while. In one rare instance, Neil brought Artem to the amusement park in Stellis. He also took Artem to nursing homes and hospitals, saying he was more like the elderly than his fellow students. Neil taught Artem how to cook in general, and specifically how to cook General Tso's Pork, which would become Artem's best dish. When Artem was a university student, Neil bought a camera specifically to record Artem's growth.

At Stellis University, Neil was one of the main character's professors, who would often take his class out for barbecue.

Artem notes that Neil is fond of the saying, "the dream of us attorneys is that one day, the world will no longer have need for us." Others note that Neil is warm-hearted and helps those in need.

Neil's previous clients include:

• Stellis Orphanage director, noted to have been the last person to see him before he disappeared.
• Woody Merrin, contract dispute client
