[ Audio, just for you, Toph. ]
Has anyone seen Sha-Ming? I think he went to Bar Lupin for a night, but he hasn't been back in five days.
[ Good thing there's no video so no one can see Minato's actually mildly concerned about this. On the other hand, the fact that he's bothered to post a message on the network might be giving that away anyways. Also, rent at the inn is due in like two days? Guess who doesn't have the cash to cover two rooms. ]
He left a message for me, something about a "salary man with a bad hairline"? Has anyone seen someone like that?
[ There's a screenshot of a text message attached to the post. It reads: ]

DONT THROW MY SHIT AWAY i’ll b back 😩

[ He sighs to himself; as much as he just doesn't want to give the guy false hope, it's not Ragna's goal to antagonize him, either. ]
the way I see it, it's either he's dead or gone from this world
not metaphorically, literally
but if you wanna play detective so badly, you might as well look into that salary man he mentioned
no subject
Yes. Maybe that's a better idea.
[ Because... yeah, there's nothing that can be done if Sha-Ming was gone-gone. ]
You haven't seen a salary man then, have you?
[ God he hopes Ragna knows what a salary man looks like. ]
no subject
can't say I have
the closest that comes to mind is that asshole Jerry
though he doesn't wear glasses
[ Plus, he can't imagine Jerry actually killing one of the Chosen... if he didn't do that to him for what he's done, it's probably safe to assume he wants to keep them alive. ]
no subject
I don't think Sha-Ming was talking about Jerry either.
[ In any event, at least Ragna knows what a salary man looks like. That counts for something! ]
If you see one, will you let me know?
no subject
[ Pigs will fly before he agrees to do someone a favor without making it a problem. ]
fine
but don't expect me to go outta my way to look for him
[ It's not like he cares or anything!! ]
no subject
Yes, of course.
[ There's genuine relief behind those typed words. ]
Any information you happen to come across will be helpful.
I don't have anything to offer you right now, but I promise to help you in the future. It's the least I can do.

[ Just let him pet Koromaru and they'll be perfectly even! ]
