Now seated across from Michirama, Kideme observed the blade he put down and the notebook he withdrew. Appreciative that he was getting right down to business, Kideme listened to his first set of questions and she paused pensively. She had to think back on the date she received the news, which was recent and she nodded once. "Yes, I am."

When Michirama asked when she had last seen Mamoru, Kideme really had to think, since the amount of times she saw him had been very spotted. "Ahhh....I suppose it might have been a few weeks ago when I met with him for a monthly report. Perhaps more. I travel often to perform in other villages, so I don't always see my staff on a day to day basis."

Michirama seemed to take that in and went onto the next questions. "No, Mamo-san has always been very much to himself.." And as much as Kideme had been dreading it, here it came. The stolen money. To this Kideme frowned but nodded. "I checked the books and all the pay stubs and capital expenditures for the six months and he'd allegedly been doing this for at least most of this quarter and some of the last." With a nod to his other question, Kideme went and pulled out some papers that showed bank statements and balance registers that showed the addition of a large lump sum with the same dates on all of them. "Sometimes, but only for holidays or if we have a client wanting to host something that's themed. But we haven't hosted anything with masks..."

Taking the mask, Kideme examined it carefully even with her hands in gloves before handing it back. "No. Where did you find this?" Looking up at his violet spiraled eyes Kideme frowned when she was shown the drugs and breathed a heavy sigh. "Not at all no. I've never even seen him so much as drink sake, let alone use narcotics."

Things were just getting worse, since a question that was ten times more damning came up. "We have oiran, Mr. Senju. They will sometimes privately cater to our guests, but they are legally indoctrinated as entertainers so long as the house in which they host has notarized licensing, which we do have."

His last question, however, would cause Kideme to shake her head. "We see hundreds of people coming in every day that stay for varied amounts of times. I can check the VIP registry but her name doesn't ring a bell."
