I don't want to lie to Genta. I don't know why, exactly. I just sort of trust him. He's usually so upbeat and happy, from what I've seen, and he's very down today. Loss I can understand. And then there's Takosawa's relationship with his squid. Hell, his squid in general makes me more inclined to trust he wouldn't exactly ruin my cover.

I'm still not sure though. I take a sip of my tea. It's very good. He's talented, even with little things like that. "Traffic accident." I mutter, and I know it doesn't sound very convincing. I've been getting more and more weary of the lie the more times I had to repeat it.
