Gaikotsu apparently could not give any meaning to all these elaborate expressions the prisoner was showing. He remained his usual distanced self; patient and unattached to the scenery around himself.
Was the prisoner having fun though, Gaikotsu wondered. Being behind the iron bars and on the verge of losing everything he had done with his life up to this point was something he could really take lightly of? Was it because he really felt easy enough, or was it because he couldn't understand the seriousness of his situation? Maybe he was only forcing himself to look like he's calm, like many would do to deceive what they thought as a threat, as it's an automatic defence mechanism.
The tokkeitai agent wanted to drag himself back to the desk to quickly scribble somethings on the dossiers. It would take a while until he was done; until he raised his emotionless face to the prisoner again.
"We are sorry, Duweru-san... however your suggestion... will not work quite well... in our situation... as there are many.... things... Taiyouji-san's report would not include... about you... Things that we wish to... learn..." he took a deep, slow breath, "Why did you... want to leave Gallia?... Why are you... hunted there?..."
He then continued on, with a little less pause between the last sentence this time, "The way you wanted to... leave... is rather illogical... Apparently... you had the resources... to buy and maintain a vessel... of gunboat size... Instead of wasting your resources on that... vessel... and trying to gain more resources... through piracy... you could directly come to... Kusari and use those resources... to buy your freedom... here..." he shook his head with a barely recognizable motion... "However... now you're caught... and have lost your ship... both your resources... and your means to gain resources..."
Here was the question that mattered, afterwards... "Duweru-san... how is your... financial situation... especially after this loss?"
