Cid - Random Knife Throw

I ignore her explanation and chuck a small knife at the map on my wall. I aim for wherever feels right or something.

Zing. It sinks into the map.

“There.”

“There? What are you…?”

“That’s where my sister is.”

“But there’s nothing… Wait. No way…!” She balks, hastily rummaging through her reports as if she’s realized something.

Erm, ah, it’s really just a random throw. But Beta is a great actress.

Lemme take a guess. You’re gonna say the secret hideout is located right at the tip of the knife, right?

“After cross-referencing my reports, it appears the hideout is at that location.”

See? What did I say?

“To think you instantly interpreted these documents and uncovered hidden details… You never cease to amaze me.”
