Alexei didn't like this; didn't like Jake's reaction. All in his years of killing people; there were interrogations... The liars were always panicky; they were never at ease. Alexei nodded to Enki to begin the 'search' as he looked at Jake; approaching the fumbling fool. "Calm down, Mild. Liars are more easily discerned by the pitch of their cries." Alexei said in a cold tone as he knew he had to look like a serious and threatening person to get answers; now using Jake's name instead of calling him by a nickname. "Winters is another case... The infection may have began with him, but it may have spread through his visits. There are a wide variety of options, Mild. He could have left those worms here, he could have spat in a cup; limitless possibilities." Alexei cracked his knuckles; now in front of Mild. Alexei was hoping that Mild was following where he was going through with the idea. "And you know what disturbed me the most? Not once did I mention, you, poisoning us. Never did I say that it was your fault. Honestly speaking, I was just about to ask whether you've spotted Winters near your beer kegs, or the milk cans. But you, Mild, the first thing that came to your mind was poisoning." Alexei growled; his eyes intense with anger. "You get what I'm saying, friend?" Alexei growled; putting emphasis on the friend word. "Got anything to say in your defense? Friend? At least, before Enki checks if you're really who you are."
