Senju did not understand Adam's words at first.
She kept looking at him after he said he would neutralize the danger before it reached them.
"What are you saying?" she asked.
Adam looked at her.
Senju's voice became sharper. "Do you even know how dangerous this is? You are talking about the underworld, Adam. You have no idea what kind of trouble can come from that side."
Adam opened his mouth to answer, then stopped.
For a second, many things passed through his mind. He knew far better than Senju could guess because he had suffered because of people like that before.
He could not tell Senju all of that. Adam took a slow breath.
"It is not that I don't understand," he said. "I understand it very well."
Senju did not look relieved.
If anything, her face became even more tense.
Adam saw that.
'This will not be enough.' Adam thought. 'If I don't make her understand properly, this will become a problem.'
He leaned forward a little.
