“Nope! Like duh! They’re under new leadership now for a reason! I thought after Banks resigned from his position, he’d become the one in charge. They hired a Spiritualist from another region for the job instead: Her name is <span class="mu-s">Qiao Ning</span>.” Susie struggles to understand the reasoning behind it. “We’re in the process of learning more about her.”
“To think that foul-mouthed man has an entity...” Nina sighs. “We don’t know what part the N.U. plays in this yet, but we don’t think they’re on the same page here.”
“Next, these are a lil’ off-topic, but it’s good if you know: there have been 3 Flame Related murders that caught some steam within the players: Pedro Cabrera, Lenny Yabe, and Percy Larsen. They’re completely unrelated, and anyone who is trying to create a connection is dumb as bricks. A prick from top to bottom. I’m letting you know in case anyone tries to dig deeper in this. A new serial killer? What a joke.” Susie takes personal people who are so willing to get into conspiracies.
“And why did they die?” Nariko feels like information is being omitted here.
“Two victims were flame users, and this happened before the rule change, so…” Neko shrugs. “They didn’t even die in the same manner.”
“If you could let Henry know as well…” Nina feels like this is something the former member will get himself into.
“Another bullet point in this stupid news section: A Golfer flame user robbed a bank while everyone was busy fighting the Behemoth. His name is <span class="mu-s">Darwin Borewing</span>. Another nutjob.” Neko presents it like it’s the most boring story ever conceived.
“Okay.” With one word, Nariko wants everyone to move on, despite Yu Yan wanting to know more.
“That’s it for now. Scram!” Neko jumps onto her bed.
“D-Don’t go to bed yet, you need to brush your teeth!” Nina grabs Neko by the hoodie like she’s a cat again…
“NGGGHHH…!!!” The dummy struggles, marking the end of the briefing.
