In a remote village, on the island west of the main isle of the Water Country.

Michio wandered his way towards yet another pub musing over his findings, there seemed to be a large amount of growing unrest, and he still wasn't used to the amount of wariness around him. As an official of sorts from Kirigakure he expected some kind of respect but not this underlying hostility. He nervously touched his forehead protector, as he headed towards the pub and saw a familiar looking women in dark clothing walked out turning the sign to “closed” as she went out hurriedly. He waited until she was out of sight then trying the handle discovered it was unlocked. Upon looking inside he saw what appeared to be the owner of the pub, slowly bleeding through two wounds already dead. Clearly they were recently given since he was still bleeding and most likely by the woman who had just left.

He mentally filed away her appearance in case he saw her again and wrote down the death in his journal along with a brief sketch of the suspected murderer, the journal was filled with the details of his visit to the island so far. So far that was the only exceptional thing that had happened. He would continue to watch to see if anything else happened but in the mean time he decided to attempt to look for the familiar woman he had seen earlier. As he looked for her he wondered how Mika-san's mission was going, hopefully better than his as he had only managed to figure out that everyone seemed to dislike the anyone and anything from Kirigakure.
