"I think I would like it." he nodded. "I like investigating. It's like a game, only much more serious. But, I can be content, if I remain a diplomat. I will serve wherever I am needed."

"Of course; I've no doubt you'd do well in any duty," Nesshin answers. "But you say you like investigating. What all have you investigated?"

Flute flute flute

Nothing really looked good. Not to him, but though he was trained he wasn't an expert.

Maybe he could ask for help. Emiko? No, the whole point was to see what she thought of it.

No, no help. He kept looking, and realized the shopkeeper he had been looking at while lost in thought had broken out into a sweat.

At least he can't see my nervous smile, that would only make it worse.

He leans slightly in.
He shrugged. "The only thing of significance was a diplomatic envoy that had offered a very advantageous treaty that they had no intention of honoring. The intent was to undermine the negotiation and force changes in their favor. I helped expose the plot and secure the treaty as written.".

"Shameful that someone would offer a treaty in bad faith," Nesshin says--and he means it. "And commendable that you ensured it would be honored."

"Not the most exciting of investigations, though." he said. "I'm sure there are better mysteries out there."

He settled on something plain in the end, deciding he'd work in it himself a bit to make it more familiar to him.

Happy with his purchase, he settled down near somewhere open and gave it a few notes worth of practice.

"Very true." he nodded.

The Dragon's attention turned a moment later as it was drawn to the Scorpion with the flute.

Nesshin's similarly. He sees, marks who it is, and shrugs.

Maybe he is following me, he thinks, but there's no law against playing a flute in the market.
