08: The Picture

Yuuki's POV

"Hurry... We have to return to Vana'diel..." Saiko unconsciously said as a drool came out of her mouth and a bubble in her nose "Right?" Her eyes looks like the ones that belongs to comical nerd characters when they remove their glasses. The pout like eyes.

The reflections of Abara, Haise, and girly boy reflected in the bubble in her nose "Oooh" girly boy exclaimed as if he realized something "I met 'em in front of the elevator earlier!" He said looking up.

"Please explain after they've seated themselves" he ordered to Abara "Roger" Shirazu walk towards us "Sassan, I'm sorry... I didn't make it on time at all... She's friggin' heavy!!" He apologized but complaining at the end.

Haise and Tooru stand up as me and Urie stay sitting. Urie is looking in front while I stay silent and leaning in my hand with a bored look. Sigh, my tummy still begs for food. If I don't eat now, I swear I can eat a whole rhino.

"N-Nonono, more importantly, thanks for bringing Saiko... that's remarkable!" Haise said with a panicked look and his hands in front of him as if he's saying it's fine. Tooru was standing behind him with a 'I can't believe it' face "Saiko's at the CCG!" He exclaimed.

I glance at Urie and saw him grit his teeth but didn't say a word. They sit again and the meeting restarted "... Let's do this once again" Abara started as he stand by the whiteboard.

"I will only go over the important points" he held his hand out to point at the writings in the board "The ghoul Nutcracker is a very picky eater. It mainly preys on males testicles" eww, Nutcracker's disgusting. She could have eat other body parts but why that part? Is she a pervert?

"There are cases where it doesn't prey as well" he continued. I already know this kind of information about the case. All I want to know is where could Nutcracker hunt her next prey.

"We suspect it's providing human resources in those case" Abara said, Haise was about to talk when I beat him to it "Human trafficking was it?" When I said that, girly boy turn to me as if he didn't knew I was here.

I ignore him then stare at Abara "She's probably working for someone. And if my guess is right, Nutcracker isn't done completing her assigned quota, yet" I explained "Hmm, you're right. Eventually Madam will request Nutcracker to 'Provide Humans'. That is..." Abara trail off.

Nutcracker is a bikaku type ghoul, she's currently an A (~) Rated ghoul but it'll probably change depending on how dangerous she can be. I snap out of my thoughts when I feel eyes staring at me but I choose to ignore it.

"The speculation of Associate Special Class Washuu" he continued. Another Washuu? It can be Director Washuu's son that I heard about.

"We've already identified her face and habitat, but to prevent awakening an even greater evil, we've let it roam free in the present" good, so they already know Nutcracker's face and habitat, big deal. Not really.

I already knew that days earlier than them "Can I share some of the information that I got?" I asked, everyone didn't say a thing so I guess it's fine "I'll take this silence as a yes" I took out my tablet and our own made hologram device.

It is a plain flat circle metal that's the size of a coin so it's really handy at times like this. I throw the device in the middle of the table and activate it using my tablet. I click some files in the tablet and the hologram showed it.

"Look at this file closely" as I said that, the hologram spread in the table in front of each of us so now it looks like a handout "This are the files where Nutcracker have been, the places where she takes humans to complete her quota. For the past days, I've been tracking her and keep an eye for her and it leads me to this prediction" I click another file in my tablet and just like before, the hologram reflected it.
