[... A deep breath. Trust and secrecy. It all gets in the way, doesn't it? He only cares for it when it's advantageous to him, and that definitely isn't the case right now. Niki is so frustratingly earnest...]

Shiina... You're worried about his whereabouts, knowing he likely went off on some dangerous mission [which HiMERU is also refraining from getting angry about, by the way], and you came to HiMERU for a reason, yes?

If you're concerned about betraying his trust, then HiMERU cannot force you to explain, but that imposes limits on what he can do to help you. Context is everything, after all.

[And HiMERU wouldn't turn away from the challenge of it even then, especially when Niki had specifically approached him with a rare show of anxiety, but...]

... Amagi likely knew that HiMERU would find out sooner or later. If you wish to stall the inevitable, Shiina, so be it. However, HiMERU has no interest in turning a blind eye this time.

[There's a lot he can ignore, and there's a lot Rinne can get away with so long as it never crossed into HiMERU's lane. But is too much coming from someone who had started crying over the prospect of losing HiMERU, drunk or not. Hopefully Rinne wasn't so foolish to think HiMERU was only full of empty threats.]
