It's better to go in with questions than to assume, in my opinion. [a nod, and then carrying right on.]

Mr. Tanaka seems to be a rather... spirited individual. So far, I would say he is too much of a wild card to be of great use in terms of accomplices. In fact, I trust very few of the people I have spoken with. [by which Kaoru means "absolutely no one".]

I may have one person in mind but I will have to wait until further interaction to confirm or deny it. ...It's actually quite an unfortunate divide, looking at it objectively. I cannot name one potential ally outside of our own group, but there are quite a few who seem to me to be too dangerous.
