After training, Lyra strolled alongside Mandy, throwing out a casual question about Miller.
"A small-minded guy," Mandy replied with a hint of disgust, dabbing her face with a towel. "Compared to Captain Whyte or Thierry, or even other members of the Whyte family, he's not even close to their league." She caught Lyra's unusual interest and added, "He's always dealing with merchants under the radar. Whenever he's on escort duty, he sneaks in private cargo for extra cash."
"Interesting…" Lyra murmured, her expression unreadable. After a pause, she added, "Have Koros take a look at his opticomputer logs. I want to know who he's been chatting with lately."
Mandy's face tightened. "You suspect him?"
Lyra gave a dry laugh. "People avoid me like I'm cursed lately. If someone insignificant like Miller starts hanging around, he's got to have a reason."
