In the Peace Party, he was essentially like a warehouse manager. All military supplies and weaponry had to pass through his hands. Except for the direct orders from a few top-level members of the Peace Party, which he didn't dare tamper with, he could deny any other requests, ensuring that no equipment was taken from there without his consent.
Although he didn't own the items, he had the right to use them. It was this responsibility and privilege that allowed him to secretly engage in arms trafficking when he was off duty, such as dealing in powerful weaponry not available in the United District market or forbidden to non-Peace Party members.
The Peace Party had these items in abundance, and they would hardly notice a few, or even dozens, missing unless someone deliberately investigated. It was all too easy to slip unnoticed!
A slight adjustment here and there on the inventory list was all it took.
