Genma Ootori was more than shocked but it never broke his nearly perpetual deadpanned look. Tsukauchi sat by his side equally shocked by the new development on the case.

Apparently, the mole wasn't their teammate but rather their leader's dog who wasn't a dog but actually a woman with a dog quirk that worked for Kanako and said leader was once a project for the deranged Scientist.

Nope, not confusing at all.

"Here, work your magic." Tsukauchi encouraged the brown haired man to use his quirk. He propped the laptop upwards showing the woman's picture alongside her name.

He made a show of cracking his fingers earning an eye roll from his superior officer. Tsukauchi waited in silence as he watched the younger man thin his green eyes in concentration.

Genma placed his index and middle finger on his temple, eyes squinted as he stared at the image.
After minutes of silence he spoke up.
"Grab a pen and paper and start writing." Tsukauchi did as he was told eyes darting from the book to the man as he began speaking.
"26 of age. November 28th. Born in Kimiura private hospital. Went to Sanji Montessori, Heirloom middle. No highschool. Worked as a shop attendant in three convince stores. Disappeared 5 years ago. Last seen location, Kyushu."

Amazed was an understatement. Tsukauchi felt himself lift with pure adoration. He was more than impressed and he could see exactly how he got up the ranks easily. His praise however got caught up in his throat when he saw Genma's expression.

Said man had his eyes rolled to the back of his head and animated veins stretching across his forehead.

"Drawback." He managed to explain through the immense migraine pounding in his brain.
"I see..." The detective's eyes twitched disturbed but understanding.

"I'll get back to Temari. Please recover soon.." He gave a thumbs up but no vocal reply.

"How's her condition?" Hawks asked over the phone. His voice was an octave too high and she could vaguely hear the sound of wind rushing past him in the background. An evidence he was flying.

"Hospitalized." Temari summed up with a frown. Truthfully, the redhead was worried beyond Hawks' comprehension. Her best friend and frankly only friend had been attacked in her home. Her emotional support animal was very dead and her escape tank of fish that reminded her of the ocean were reportedly scattered across her home.
In summary her safe haven was destroyed within one morning by the one person she made to get away from.

While it disturbed her it also made her even more determined to find Kanako and put her behind bars.
"Ootori-san and Tsukauchi-san found some valuable information concerning the mole."
"The dog lady?" Hawks asked. She heard a faint grunt from the other end but didn't bother to question it.
"Yeah. Valerie and her team are in charge of the investigation of her home. They think they can find a way to grasp Kanako's exact location. From what they've gotten so far all points to Sakura." The cafe she sat in buzzed with life as even more as people filtered into the shop to get their daily dose of caffeine or at least a taste of the offered deserts in the menus.

"All this talk about her here and we still got nothing." The blond complained over the phone much to Temari's dismay.
"Its only day 3. We have two weeks to find her let's be...patient." As much as it pained her to say that word she had to for his sake at least. She was just trying to be a good team leader and of didn't help the person she was paired with enjoyed working abnormally fast.

"Well most of the sites chosen to search prove otherwise." He grumbled. She heard the sound of metal clanging in the background and winced softly.
Hawks had been instructed to survey every safehouse within the vicinity. What better way to get an aerial view than use a bird?
If anything proven suspicious he was to inspect covertly.
The sound was anything but covert.
