Not directly. miss Reze accused him and in response he attempted to demonstrate that he was physically unable to harm humans. This proved to no longer be true.

[greatdeduction]

Eh?

How would one be physically incapable of hurting humans?

[winebar]

I do not know. He said something about a chip in his brain.

[Whatever that means. What's a computer.]

[greatdeduction]

A potato?

[FISH AND CHIPS?????????????]

[winebar]

I am sure it wasn't that sort of chip! Use some common sense!

[greatdeduction]

...Ah.

[HE'S DISAPPOINTED.....NO POTATO BRAIN :(]

But regardless of what it was...he didn't have it?

[winebar]

Yes. He was asking the watchers for it back, though.

[greatdeduction]

...

[His face...falls.]

Ah. I can understand why.

[winebar]

[Hmph.]

We can only hope they grant his request.

[greatdeduction]

They might. One never knows.

[And a long pause. A tilt of the head.]

Now, now. What's this I hear about roles, hm?

[winebar]

You would be better off asking miss Mikotoba about it. She uncovered them before me.

[greatdeduction]

...

[He...freezes. And then something shifts in his expression, distant.]

And she told you, then?

[winebar]

She did. She wondered if I had found any, myself. In particular she had a theory that there may be two people with the same role, one per team. That is why she asked me.

[greatdeduction]

...And so? Have you found any? I won't ask for names. I'm just simply curious.

[winebar]

None that match up with miss Susato's. But I do know of two, though not their affiliations.

[greatdeduction]

Did you hear it from the horse's mouth, or did you simply learn about them from others?

[winebar]

Both of them told me about their roles, yes.

[greatdeduction]

...

[He smiles.]

And here I thought you were complaining about not getting along with people?

[winebar]

Respecting my ability to gather and share information properly is not the same as getting along.

[greatdeduction]

No, don't you get it? That's trust, my dear fellow. And that goes beyond simply collecting information.

[winebar]

[Folding his arms.]

As long as they trust me to do my job, that's all I can ask.

[greatdeduction]

And what job is that?

[winebar]

If you do not know the answer to that then your head injury is worse than we feared.

[greatdeduction]

Oh! I know. Being ever so grumpy as you accidentally reveal private, important information to the public, you dolt.

[winebar]

[WHO TOLD HIM.]

H-how was I to know even that much would cause that effect!? I did not say who it was!

[LEAVE ME ALONE NO ONE HAS EVER TRUSTED ME WITH ROLE INFO BEFORE]
