Lombardo asked more or less about the invincible stomach facing him as he sank his body deeply into the heavy sofa of total leather provided for his own office.
Asked, Shester then slowly looked up and inquired after some thoughtful thought.
"... is that about Lennon? Or ribeau?"
Shester asked, recalling the face of an unfavourable pair that he had met earlier in the Secretary's office.
Lombardo then answered concisely.
"Both."
Shester's response to it then became quite a long one.
"First of all about Lennon...... from what I saw, I was under the impression that he was setting a trap in ten and twenty. It's like spreading spider threads everywhere without knowing... so it seems dangerous if you assume all possibilities. The next thing I know about my subordinate Ribo...... I just heard the words of greeting, so you still can't grab that figure at the moment. Well it was creating a suspicious atmosphere to see… I still can't decide what the truth is, and I don't think we should do it again"
Then he put his hands together at his chin to meditate, and Lombardo, listening quietly and silently, slowly opened his mouth.
"Right. I think so too. The target should not be inferred lightly until sufficient judgment material is available. All right, let's say we put someone on it and let them look for a trend for Libo."
Then suddenly someone broke into the conversation between the two from outside the window.
"Isn't that what I'm supposed to do?"
And the LORD of voices was Elle, the king of the cats, who had broken in through the windows.
Upon acknowledging Elle's appearance, Lombardo immediately took the offer.
Then Shester, sitting face to face, opened his mouth.
"Dear Elle, what can I say, could you also explore Lennon's whereabouts? Anyway, we can't move for the time being..."
"Really?
Lombardo answered Elle's question.
"Yes, as it is customary for those summoned to the Inquiry Committee to be held in physical custody, so to speak, under house arrest…"
"Right. I mean, you're under house arrest not to work poorly, right?
"Yes. So the two of us won't get out of this building. Thank you for your trouble, but thank you for everything."
Then Elle nodded loudly and deeply.
"I know the phase. Leave everything to me. You may spend your time here for the time being."
When Elle said so, he niggered and grinned zero.
Lombardo and Shester accidentally leaked a bitter laugh when they looked at each other.
"Yes, let me do that"
When Lombardo turned to Elle and told him so on his behalf, Elle nodded forcefully.
"Uhm. Then I'll wait but good"
When Elle told the two of them that, she quickly flipped herself and jumped out the window.
When Lombardo and Shester looked at each other again, there was something slightly different from earlier, although they had similarly leaked a bitter laugh earlier.
That was a slight, reassuring feeling on their faces.
