3rd tarot

I joined the local police force. To anyone interested: I'm Serizawa Naoto, and I worked as a detective where I come from. I may be young, but I had the highest crime solve rate of the department, so if you think you can get away with crime, well... I'll definitely get you! So just don't do it, even though that'd make things pretty boring around

It's nice to meet you. I hope you find the culprits soon. [She now puts all of her faith to the police officers, pfft.]

[naoto_rennt]

Yeah. We'll figure it out, ma'am, even if it takes a while. I'll definitely never give up!

[mercifulsmile]

That's good to hear, thank you. If you need any public assistance, I'm willing to help with whatever way I can.

[naoto_rennt]

Thanks. Any help from the citizens is appreciated, though you shouldn't put yourself at risk. You should be careful at all times.

[mercifulsmile]

Same to everyone on the force. Naoto--uhm, your namesake--said that you would announce the culprits once you find them. It's not that I don't trust her word, but I'd like to hear it one more time from somebody else.

...Will you?

[naoto_rennt]

I only just joined, so I don't know how they handle things like that, but... I think that's going to depend on the case once we solve it. Sometimes it's better not to tell the public. But if Shirogane-san told you that, I think it's a good idea to trust her. She's a very experienced detective.

I can assure you that whatever happens, we're doing our best, ma'am. Please don't worry.

[mercifulsmile]

If not the public, then can I at least ask that you tell it to me? I...I need to know who killed my best friend. I won't do anything, I just--

You're right. I'm sorry. I should just wait for things to progress.

[naoto_rennt]

...

I can't make any promises, ma'am, I'd have to ask my supervisor. But if it's worth anything, I know how that feels... so I'll do my best to let you know, okay?

[mercifulsmile]

I know. I'm sorry I ask so much of you and the police. I appreciate it though, thank you.

[naoto_rennt]

You're welcome, ma'am.

...I'm sorry about your friend.

[mercifulsmile]

It's alright. He came back. Nobody dies permanently here, so...It's all alright! [Pfft.]

[naoto_rennt]

I know, but it's still gotta hurt.

[mercifulsmile]

You have no idea.

[mercifulsmile]

What's important is that he's here now. So I'm just trying to forget about it.

ahah he has more than an idea /angsty canon

[naoto_rennt]

That's good. Leave the rest to us.

lmfao i did my research of maou ;A; it is pretty angsty.

[mercifulsmile]

I will. Good luck.

Ah, by the way. I'm Gracia. It's nice to meet you Naoto. [Remind her to think of a nickname for him too. She already knows another Naoto.]
