Gaucher is introduced as the responsible curator for the Department of Asian Arts at the Louvre. He gives Rohan Kishibe authorization to research Nizaemon Yamamura's Under the Moon, but only for five minutes. He also asks him to leave behind anything he has. Surprised that the Louvre had a work of an artist he never heard about in the Z-13 section, which was long ago abandoned, he accompanies Rohan along with two firefighters of the security services and the interpreter Noguchi to investigate it.

When the group finally finds the painting, one of the firefighters has his skull pierced and is sucked into the darkness of the ceiling.

His body is never found, and he is considered missing afterward.[1]
