After ordering the items he needed from the gun shop, he and Azrael parted with the old man…. While walking back to the car, Leo asked, "Are you sure he is not going to inform the police?"
Azrael shook her head slowly, strands of her hair swaying against her cheek. "Don't worry… I've done more for him than most people ever would. This shop itself? I kept it. He knows better than to betray me. I don't think he'd go out of his way to tell them. If anything, he'll look the other way… as long as he keeps earning more than enough coin to quiet his conscience." Her gaze slid toward Leo's pocket, where he had previously taken a diamond.
Her voice dropped, more weight in every word, "Listen, I won't ask where you got it, but…" her face turned serious, her lips hardening into a thin line,
"Do not hurt Raphael."
Hearing that, Leo blinked softly before humming, neither denying nor confirming. He didn't say anything, just kept walking to the car with steady, unhurried steps.
