Kuroki-san lays down the rules for me, and I sigh, though not in his sight. I'm to have an escort anywhere off-base, it seems. I know Sakurada-san is making himself available, but I have the impression he's one of their elites and I'm not sure I want to take him away from his duties. He's promised that he'll introduce me to some of his co-workers, but I don't know when.
There are some areas I can't go into, which I knew. But Kuroki-san, perhaps with some prompting beforehand from Sakurada-san, points out that there's a duck pond on the grounds, and I'm welcome to go there. I have the idea that he doesn't want to repeat what happened with Rekka-san. They lost a lot of people between when Rekka-san left and I came.
One of his assistants shows me around, giving me a tour of the facility and making sure I know where to go and where not to go. They feed me lunch and show me where to put my laundry. I don't think Kuroki-san wants me to leave anytime soon, that they'll hold me as long as they need to.
But that doesn't matter. I'll do what I have to do. I'll go where I need to go, with or without their cooperation.
