Upon hearing Nico's words, doubt began to stir in Deep's heart. I've already tested him, and he should be my Captain… but what if? Probing a little more wouldn't hurt. In fact, it would bring more peace of mind. There's no reason not to do something with only an upside and no downside.
"But how do we get the chance? We can't just run over and make a move, can we? That wouldn't be good, whether he's the real one or not," Deep said, looking at the Second Officer before him.
Just as he finished speaking, the sound of light footsteps came from outside the door. Nico placed a finger to his lips in a shushing gesture before tiptoeing towards the window. Through their concealed vantage point, they saw a somewhat flustered Lily walking along the corridor toward the first-floor hall. Nico watched until the girl disappeared at the end of the corridor, a charming smile gracing his alluring face. "See? There's our opportunity. With her around, our task becomes much easier."
