Kiyomi Liuli wasn't deceived; she had a deep understanding of Nanahara Takeshi and curiously looked at the white envelope, firmly believing that Nanahara Takeshi, with some trickery, had "seen" what was inside. It was the desire he felt that caused him to change his opinion so readily, in line with his unscrupulous nature.
Honestly, she would rather believe that pigs could climb trees than believe Nanahara Takeshi had a sense of justice.
Gotoh Yasushi wasn't so easily fooled either; coming from a quasi-professional background, he had worked his way up from an ordinary officer, having encountered many spiritual mediums and fraudsters. He knew exactly what kind of people they were. Looking straight at the white envelope, he said, "About the reward..."
Nanahara Takeshi stuffed the white envelope into his chest, saying softly, "I am undeserving yet mustn't refuse; I understand what this represents and thus can only humbly accept. Rest assured, there won't be any issues."
