Milo's answer gave Aqua a lot to think about. Starting with the immediate question, "[color=7ea7d8]You can't tell me anything about the first case? Even when the suspects are practically the same people?[/color]" The fact that Milo was willing to talk, yet not able to fully divulge, was speaking volumes. There were greater things at work here. They'd just met today, so there was a good chance he didn't trust anyone. It might take some work, but Aqua was determined to get it out of him eventually. Of course, it would be best if their investigations could progress without the need for that information.

	"[color=7ea7d8]I don't consider anyone my friend. I don't expect you to trust me fully either. I'm not going to dismiss the possibility you just brought up, but it's not out of place for Maliyov to be on edge. Not the most uncommon behavior to have around here, especially after our last big one.[/color]" She paused before continuing, "[color=7ea7d8]But, Maliyov is the one who conducted the interview with the Emri as well. As for my files, they went through a few hands before I got them, so I have no clue about the existence of the 3rd page... Actually, I never even noticed the discrepancy in numbers before you mentioned it. The transcript seemed to have come to a natural end.[/color]"

	Aqua tapped her finger on the table while pondering. Maybe someone did betray the team and was hindering their progress. Maybe she should speak with Maliyov as well. Should he really be trusted though? Milo did bring up a good point, but maybe it was his way of diverting attention. Then, it occurred to her, "[color=7ea7d8]Wait, what you said about Ava Emri... how did we manage to find her and bring her in for questioning then? Why were her oddities not mentioned anywhere in the files? Why were her files barebone to begin with? What can you tell me about her?[/color]"
