"Dian, right?"
Looker coughed and tried to smooth things over.
He had no choice but to do so. Ever since Dian entered, he and Anabel had been frowning and staring at each other.
"Let's get straight to the point."
Dian frowned again and glanced at Lisa before speaking to Looker.
For some reason, he instinctively felt a sense of resistance toward Anabel.
It made no sense.
Anabel's appearance completely matched his aesthetic preferences, and the two of them had never interacted before.
Moreover, if he had to put it that way, he should have even felt favorably toward her.
Yet in reality, when they faced each other, he instinctively sensed a feeling of repulsion toward her.
"An outsider."
His instincts seemed to be telling him that.
"Who was the one who made contact with Hunter J?"
Dian sat calmly across from the two of them.
Looker sent an inquiring glance toward Anabel, who was sitting beside him with one leg crossed over the other.
"Then let's be direct."
Anabel straightened up. Her pure-black fitted suit made her look solemn and imposing, while her androgynously beautiful face and long hair softened that impression. Altogether, she possessed an exceptionally unique air.
"Team Plasma."
She calmly removed her black glove. "According to the information our people obtained, they should be carrying out the exchange in the Wilderness near Nimbasa City."
Anabel raised an eyebrow almost imperceptibly. This information was not to be underestimated. Although she had stated it lightly, it was impossible to know how much effort had gone into obtaining it. They had even deployed a deeply concealed Agent.
And all of this—
She glanced at the other party without leaving a trace—
was thanks to him. Otherwise, they could have obtained this lead much more easily.
Team Plasma?!
Dian frowned.
Wait.
