Shortly after Hosoda Chiho arrived, she quickly gave Hana her drink, then went to her desk to put her things away.
The young intern, on the other hand, had barely had time to thank her, and had gone back to working on her computer.
"You could have gone home now, Hana-chan," Mari said. "Since you were in the field, you can totally take the night off..."
"That's true... But I'd like to at least finish this," the young woman replied, pointing at her screen.
At least, that's what Shinsuke imagined she was doing, seeing how she had looked ahead with slightly raised eyebrows.
He had not given up the idea of observing in more detail the young woman whose behavior he found suspicious.
At times, she could be violent and unpredictable, like when she had pushed him in front of the elevator. Then, at other times, she was shy, cordial and smiling, as it was the case currently.
