Three days had passed since the investigation began.

Within a place shrouded in darkness, Tiat Shiba Ignareo held her breath.

The air was full of dust, to the point that every breath she took made her nose seize up as if she was about to sneeze. It felt like a muddy lump of saliva and anxiety was imprisoned in her stomach, threatening to bubble up into her throat.

She was currently squeezed into a narrow crack between two buildings, her attention focused on the opening in front of her. If she breathed in a little too much, her chest and back would touch the surrounding walls.

This situation really made her heart race. Tiat remembered how, when she was much smaller than now, she had once been locked crying in a drawer. Ever since then, she’d always been bad with extremely tight spaces.

…If I were a little taller, would this be more dangerous?

When she’d been impatient to become an adult, her body’s slow growth was a constant source of worry for her. But right now, she was thankful for her compact physique.

“Coming here means we won’t be spotted by anyone, right?”

There were six figures in the dark room.

Each wore masks and overcoats to conceal their faces and body shapes. The suspicious characters’ clothing didn’t appear out of place during the festival season and simultaneously served as the best tools to conceal their identities.

“This deal is way more significant – and different – than what we usually do,” continued the seemingly leader of the five, whose voice and build suggested he was a man. He sounded irritated.

“…That’s my line,” the sixth figure, facing the other five, replied in a stifled and hoarse voice. Such a voice made it difficult to figure out their age and gender. Their physique was small, but that was all Tiat could figure out. Whether that was due to the person being young, or a feature of their race… she couldn’t judge. In other words, she knew nothing.

The small figure spoke again. “Bringing… these numbers… to this transaction. Supposed to… be low-profile. Is this not… careless?”

“It’s ‘cause we need to be on guard that I brought so many. It’s just a difference of opinion.” The masked man shook his head with exaggerated motions.

“Difference of opinion.” The smaller figure hardly moved, but a tinge of exasperation entered their voice. “How convenient, is… it not? Picking a deserted island for this… does it not have… other meanings?”

“Well, might be, might not be. Anyway, what’s it got to do with you?”

“I have… not heard… the reason you will use this.” The smaller person’s head dipped, their tone detached again.

“Didn’t think I had to tell you. How ‘bout I say it’s for peace? That enough?”

“…Fine. Now, the point. Where is it?”

The masked man jerked his jaw to the four behind him. One of them stepped forward with a bag and placed it at the small figure’s feet.

“Gonna check what’s in there?”

The small figure opened the bag. Tiat couldn’t see the contents from her position.
