Susan saw Old Hardenn staring at her, hands spread, "Sorry, we are still a reserve team, we don't have much funding, and Brian's hospital check-ups have already cost quite a bit. If you can't give a good reason, I refuse to reimburse you."

Old Hardenn became anxious, "It's not my fault, there were armed guards there, I had to pretend to be a client to coax out some information."

"I..."
"Enough!" Brian interjected, stopping their nonsense, "Our most immediate task right now is to solve this case. Old Hardenn, talk about what you've found, and if it's useful, when the case-solving bonus comes out, Team Leader Susan can reimburse you!"
