Khan took a short sip from the cap as he adjusted his position on the bed and prepared himself for a long meditation. Lieutenant Unchai inspected him with his curious eyes, but he didn't dare to say anything or question him about the recent events.
The Lieutenant didn't eavesdrop on Khan's conversation with the Colonel, but he remained curious about the matter, especially after seeing the soldier laughing while leaving the cave.

His request for the bottle had been somewhat random, even if it voiced some of his superficial desires. Still, he also didn't expect the soldier to have that happy reaction.
