She held onto the envelope given to her.  Amira, her partner had waited for her outside the headquarters. Also, Shadow Demon.

Nana : why are you here ?

Shadow Demon: Neva hopes you can go home since you're nearby.

Nana : he gets his information quick.

Shadow Demon: the girl misses you.

Nana looks to Amira " ... See you back at the barracks?"

Amira : don't forget about kicking that guy's ass. We're all looking forward to it.

" Won't forget it." And nana leaves with Shadow Demon.

She sat in the car in silence while the car hadn't get started.

Shadow Demon: you need some time ?

Nana : ... Um. You can tell ?

Shadow Demon: you have that face on.

Nana : what face ?

Shadow Demon: nothing.

She pulled out a document from the envelope. It was a form.

Request For Additional Funds Form

Shadow Demon: what's that ? It's important ? You look stressed.

Nana :  What is the Lieut trying to tell me ?

Shadow Demon; a form ?

Nana : a form that applies for urgent request of funds. Funds to buy food and other important supplies to Caper City. The place where Creo was fighting for quite long.

Shadow Demon :  I see.

Nana : ugh.... I'm not good with math.

Shadow Demon: maybe it's not about math ?

Nana looked at the documents " ... Date. Shit. You're right. He requested this 3 months ago before Izuya died. But his problem suddenly got resolved 3 days after Izuya's death."

Shadow Demon: coincidence?

Nana : no... I must know what happened.

And she finally reached... She don't exactly call it home. A place she stayed at.

It's not like she hated this place. She didn't even really know how to feel about this place. She did make a deal and now she had to be here. But ... She didn't really stay here either.

Ilise came running down the stairs " mama !! " She hugged her " presents ? "

Nana : I already gave you.

Ilise ; oh... Ok. Yay !! You're back !! You'll stay longer this time right ?

Nana : .... Not sure.

Ilise : oh... At least till tomorrow ?

Nana smiled " ok. "

Nana : .... ..... Erm... Ok.
