My attitude? [Head tilting? Then glancing when the student snored, her eyebrow quirking and disappearing under the brim of her hat.]

I see... If you don't mind my asking. Why isn't your room in the main house?

[It's noted. But there was no need for her to get used to it. For he was talking to someone who'd calmly brought up her parents dying when asked to tell a funny story...

She just gave a nod.]

I see. I hope you aired it out well before sleeping there or the ventilation is adequate... Though I'm surprised he had that many clients. In the time I'm from, bosozoku groups are in heavy decline.

[Instead hangure were increasing.]

[Not going to tell him it was declining by that point.

Instead, she tilted her head.]

And what does it mean? ... The bozosoku from the town myself and my senpai resided in spent their time harassing the elderly.

[Litrally the only thing the gangs of Inaba did.]

The ones I know of clearly don't. Fortunately, this group wasn't particularly dangerous or competent. [In Inaba, they were the worst and most annoying. But compared to the city? They were mostly just loud troublemakers.]

They kept waking up one woman. Her teenage son fought the lot of them... When they tried to run he chased them on a pushbike.

[She wasn't sure if that showed how impressive Kanji-kun's physical prowess was, or how pitiful the Inaba's gangs were.]

I know. [She'd spent most of her time in larger cities. Seeing more dangerous groups, Inaba's had been laughable.]

How much has senpai told you about Inaba? [Rhetorical. She didn't give him time to answer.] Until recently, someone playing music too loud would have been the only major crime they'd have.

Yes. I lived there for a time. However I tend to move frequently if I'm not at my family's estate.

[She'd normally just spend a few months in a spot for a case. Go back to the estate for a few days, then on to the next spot. She'd almost spent a year in Inaba, working on the case, going to school to find things after the police had falsely closed it...

Her grandpa had been overjoyed by her seeming to settle.]

Moderatily, I've worked there. Unfortunately, it appears that more insidious gangs have taken over the area... They're prone to forcing schoolchildren to do petty crimes. Then using said petty crimes to blackmail them into doing worse.

[It was a vicious circle. Most of the victims didn't want to come forward due to their own crimes and how it could affect their futures.

The question got a tilt of her head. Not understanding what part of family estate was confusing.]

The buildings and land owned by my family? I was not born in Inaba.

If you come across them be careful. They're not the type to fight fair, and they may target someone else to get revenge.

[Like she'd mentioned, insidious. She was silent at his second comment, thinking about it. Tilting her head. Well, she had easily been able to move to Inaba to look into the murders and deny pay. Her rent and expenses fully covered.]

I suppose so. Not that it matters much here... Though the locals are oddly lenient with money and employment here.

[Doubt. She really doubted that, it didn't matter how good someone might be there was a chance they could be caught off guard. She knew of at least one case where someone was drugged to dampen their skills.]

Yes. On the day I arrived here, they put me to work handling food... If anything I was forced into it. It was strange though. They didn't need any paperwork or proof of ID. [What if she'd poisoned people? Aldrip locals why are you like this.]

In a sense. I'd been hunting monsters nearby, though I'm not sure how feasible that'll be with the city changing. If I had my scooter... [It'd be easier to travel. But she just shrugged. It wasn't important.]
