[ His eyebrows shoot up, and he takes in Wei Wuxian's strained expression. He's feeling a little strained himself, now. In a city so full of humans, there's bound to be conflict among them, but it's still distressing to hear about it. ]
No, sir, I haven't heard a peep. I spoke with our head honcho not too long ago, and he said everything in the Family is business as usual.
[ Not exactly, but close enough. He probably shouldn't go spilling every little detail he knows without good reason. ]
[It's honestly seeming like a problem within the Xian Le, but as fond as he is of 9S despite his SCATHING SUSPICION and as neutral-leaning as he tends to be, he's still Xian Le aligned. He keeps that bit to himself for now.]
Seems like a more recent problem, so I haven't heard or seen much. We've just been working on getting the word out so people can keep their eyes peeled and spread information when it surfaces.
Got it. If I hear anything, I'll be sure to pass the word along.
[ Wei Wuxian may be Xian Le in origin, but that means much less to 9S than it did to Nines. Cooperation has to take priority if the safety of the population is at stake. ]
You don't think it could be family-related, do you? I know there's been talk of peace, so something like this could be a serious complication.
A tiny little bit of his tension eases away at that. Sometimes people get so tied up in fighting for sides that they forget the overall picture: they're all dang dirty mafiosos living in a lawless town.]
Mm, I will. For now I think it's just best if we all keep a careful watch, caution people not to wander around too late at night, especially alone - that kind of thing.

It might be. I haven't managed to gather enough information yet to say with certainty one way or another, but it isn't a possibility I'd rule out.

Well, let me know if there's anything I can do to help you find some answers. It's in all of our best interests to keep the town safe and sound.
