"There is something going on for sure."

"I've got people working on it, should have news by this evening." He pumped his hands in the water, squirting a steam across the bath. "We'll see though, would be a shame, but it is what it is."

A frown from the young Scorpion woman as she looked at the two men, "I was told before I came here not to get mixed up in local matters. But I suppose I see no harm in this; After all, now that guests are involved, it's hardly just internal is it?"

It sounded like she was justifying her own interest more than what the Spider had talked about in looking in to things.

"It seems like a rather unpleasnt matter, yes. The lord magistrate doesen't seem to put much,.. enthusiasm into her investigation."

"Well who would when there's talk of that? I mean, it's ugly. And it only gets worse", the spider shrugged.

"Is there any way I can help? Doshin or no, I have experience dealing with undercover work and such~"

It wasn't the biggest selling point, but Tenma was always up for some action.

"Hmmm. If you can? I mean, i can't stop you, but be warned, the lord magistrate doesen't like it when people snoop around."
