But Shester didn't mind any such comet and said without distracting himself from Azio.
"I mean... you think we're after Comet's life?
Then Azio panicked and shook his palms in front of his face to deny it.
"No. No! Could be! Yes! I just thought it might be a taste of the enemy who's after Comet's life. I never assumed he was an enemy. That's why I've been exploring you."
Then Shester came up with his right fist under his chin.
"... but it was from you that Comet said he was the son of a former archbishop, wasn't it?
"... do you remember that well?... No, that's really great... yes. I cut it out of here with the intent of preemptive strike. To see how you react."
"Is that why you thought enemies might be upset... so what did you think when you saw my reaction?
"To be honest, I didn't know. But then, when I talked to you and I, I found out that this time it was interesting to hear from you."
"How did you find out?
"If you're not the enemy... well, Valentine, you're the ones who will be the famous family in the first place, so your identity is so solid that you don't have any more... but whatever, your enemies are mighty, so it's not like you're not working with them..."
"... I see, a mighty enemy..."
"Yeah, so I got suspicious instead. 'Cause you do, don't you? All of a sudden, the Schneiders show up and they want to hire us to fire the SS."
That's what Azio liked to say. He spread his hands and shrugged his shoulders.
"Hmm. You mean..."
While Shester said so, he still felt something unexplained in Asio's explanation.
