[ The question comes out as a demand, it's very direct, like he isn't going to quit all this until he gets an answer. But despite that, it doesn't sound like he's condemning her yet. He's not yelling at her like she's nuts for doing it - something that wouldn't even really surprise her, considering what Arakita is usually like.

What, is he giving her a chance even though she said that..? She's come to accept there's just some people here in Haven who will throw unconditional trust and love to everyone like some magical girl, but he's not like that. Then why is he specifically trusting her on this one, that she has a good explanation for it?

She doesn't get it, but even so, it's enough to give her the kind of feeling that makes her not want to lie or joke about the reason - she answers honestly. ]

My mother's side of the family is.. well, yakuza, to put it bluntly. My aunt came after me to get rid of me so she'd inherit my family's fortune. It was either that or just letting myself get humiliated and slaughtered by her.
