Four panels.

Edit: There's also a page before this one that I don't think anybody linked.

Its like he doesn’t belong there and he is displacing everything else around him. Like oil in water, if that makes sense.

Or he's a train that bends things around him. That's not as good of a metaphor, but his head's shape does match the same shape as the ghost train.

Why would a perfectly legitimate business owner do anything like that to a small child?

It means he's not technically a spectral, but has all the traits spectrals have. The ability to see and intereact with spirits, not being dead, regenerating spirit energy, yadda yadda yadda.

My money's on he used his local business in cybertechology to give himself all the abilities that spectrals have, after a loved one was hospitalized by a ghost wolf.

Maybe for some reason he can't utilize energy anymore like spectrals can, but can still see spirits.

My bet's he was a spectral as a kid, like Spender and Zarei, and maybe even hung out with them, but as the group got older and parted ways, he dropped the spectral stuff, thinking of it as juvenile or some other reasoning. You can stop using tools and being possessed, but you can never stop seeing spirits.
