“Ouch” He screams when Ria hit his head with the magazine she pull out from the magazine rack that is right on her side of the seat. In respond, Rouka stand up and about to yell at her, but before he could he stopped and return to his seat. After letting out a small sigh, he let Ria to continue. Right away, Rouka’s phone rang notifying Ria’s message so he opens it.
 	The content of the mail itself is straightforward, it’s array of pictures depicting a very bloody scene. Instantly Rouka recalled back the news he heard earlier today. [i]Saika… and because the Tsurara, the COIN is getting hold of this, then it means…[/i] the dots finally connects. Just as he thought, it is nothing good at all. 

	"I know a European legend that by bathing in the blood of virgins help one retrain youth." 

	European, bloodbath, virgins, Rouka knows this tale. The infamous Elizabeth Bathory. A girl born in the one of the noble families of Hungary, the Bathory family. One of the models for the vampire Carmilla. A wicked woman who bathed in the living blood of more than 600 women in order to preserve her own beauty. Many reports that in addition to having their blood drawn, the victim would have hot irons thrust into their mouths, their entire bodies stabbed with pins, and other kinds of tortures. She easily makes the most prolific serial killer in existence. Rouka knows that Ria aren't saying that this 'Saika' is her, but it does suggests that this 'Saika' could be a person like her. A person who would kill hundreds for whatever goal it aim for. 

	"Whoever this 'Saika' is, this person is certainly aiming for something by targeting [b]'us'[/b]. Of course whatever this bastard is up to, it must be stopped. So what did you think I was gonna say shorty pants?"

	Us... that means the Esper. There are many saying for it. The evolved, inhuman, super-powered, mutant, monster, and much more. The term Rouka most familiar with is Kaii (怪異), or the strange. Basically, those who possess some short of supernatural power. The unknown part of this world that the mass don't know. Majority of COIN agents are one, and of course.... Rouka and Ria included. Lastly, the victims of Saika are none other than the Esper too. But the revelation aside, Rouka knows one thing for sure.
	[i]Saika... this person is [b]dangerous[/b][/i]. Rouka's senses are tingling. Chasing after this person is suicide move. But looking at Ria's eyes he know very well what she's going for here. Once again, letting out a sigh, he look straight into Ria's eyes and open his mouth.

	"I'm sorry but, I believe we should not dip our hand into this. I know you want to do some actual job by now, but this is not for us. I can't help you with this." he said as he stares Ria with the most serious face he never made in front of her.

	"...I suggest you just forget about it. You're going to attend your swimming club after this right? Okay, I will go take your picture." He added after a brief pause. He figures maybe it is better for her to literally cool down her head right now.
