But if he is the spy, how would he even come in contact with the Illuminati?
they contacted him. it doesnt seem improbable.
He seems to be too lazy to seek them out himself,
"seems", I think thats the key word.
but why would they be interested in "hiring" him? Even if they just wanted a spy in Rin's class, how would they know that Renzou was the one for the job?
when you look at how many people theres in the class, you see theres not that much exorcist material out there. and this exorcist school seems to be the only one in japan.
so lets see. . . he has the right age, he speaks japanese and lives in japan, he has a noticeable and convincing reason to attend this school, he already know a lot about demons and the order, he has some fighting skills, he wants to leave his current organization. . . maybe theres more but thats already looking fine, no?
Hmm, Toudou found him? Since he was in the order and he taught Juuzou, so... And Renzo is the came case as Saburouta - the youngest of family, that wanted him to become exorcist.
renzou's case is similar to saburouta's. but one was in tokyo and the other one in kyoto. of course it doesnt make it impossible, but still unlikely.
the illuminati is an organization, they probably have a lot of members who can do recruitment.
I doubt Toudou pivoted him, considering Toudou has been undercover for years.
what are you saying? he did it with mamushi.
