"That's right! We're members of Night Raid."
Even Leone, who was usually so carefree, wasn't surprised that Stargazer had guessed their identities. Night Raid had indeed become rather famous in the Imperial Capital lately, and with a few distinguishing traits, it was easy enough to figure out who they were.
