Michirama stayed hidden in the darkest corner of the cave, his eyes trained on the figure, watching his movements. When the man began speaking in a foreign language he strained his ears, focusing the small amount of chakra he still had flowing to his ears in order to hear more clearly allowing him to remember what was said for a bit longer due to actually being able to hear each syllable. What happened next shocked Michirama, it wasn't something he had expected, but the slaughter of those prisoners was something terrible and there was nothing Michi could have done to save them. They would die think Michirama a failure of sorts and he would have to live with that.

His eyes caught sight of something small and round roll from the pocket of the masked man when he was done slaughtering his victims. On top of that, he also noticed the red chakra from before, coating the man like an aura and seemingly coming from the blood, at least that's how it looked.  Is he ... absorbing life force? he asked himself as he watched the display. Michirama stayed stationary as the masked man left. When the chakra signal was out of the cave he would slowly de-suppress his chakra and extend the range of his sensing until he was confident the masked man was well and truly gone. With no time to waste, Michirama pulled out his note book and began to scribble down the words he had heard before while they were still fresh in his memory, he wouldn't forget a language like that so quickly.

He also flipped to a new page and sketched the mask he saw, this was all evidence, even if he had been the only witness. That won't look good on record he muttered to himself as he put the Katana back in its sheath and tucked the notebook back into his pocket. Once he was certain the stranger was gone, he emerged from the darkness and approached the bodies. "I'm sorry ... I should have saved you ... I'll get that bastard, I promise". Michirama bent down and retrieved the small circular object dropped by the murderer and turned it over in his hand before tucking it in his pocket. "Again ... I'm sorry. I'll have the KPD send people to recover your bodies ... you all deserve to be buried" Michirama would turn and leave the cave, beginning to body flicker back to Konoha once he was outside, and finally back to the station.

Michirama would slink back into Deucalion's office and closed the door before laying out all the evidence on the table in front of him. Three things stood out to him as major importance; 1 was the strange coin like object, 2 was the strange language spoken by the murderer and 3 was that mysterious chakra. After spending some time going over the notes, Michirama would leave the office and go searching for the Chief of Police.
