[This is exactly the opportunity Kiritsugu had been waiting for.]

[Until now, his most promising plan had been to dispose of the chief of police, but really, Kiritsugu knows he has no way of doing that yet. Even if he were to succeed, losing a man in that position did little the last time it happened. However, to take charge of the role would make him privy to the information the entire town needs to escape. Not only that, the opposition he would receive in acting against key targets would be massively reduced. It sounds like a daunting task, considering the application's requirements, but Kiritsugu doesn't have the same look in his eyes he did a month ago. Losing his children again tore down the walls he had imposed on himself since the fire.]

[He's already aware of two individuals with a spotty record, but neither of them will give him a confession. One is his 'wife', and the other is a certain priest he'd much rather see dead than behind bars. Both are impossible to force into doing so. It seems he'll have to take a different approach.]

[As someone applying for chief of police, he's able to make promises no other resident would be able to. This doesn't mean he has to fulfill them if not doing so keeps the residents safe, of course. Perhaps it's time to take advantage of his newly regained mentality.]

I require the private confessions of five moderate to large offenses for the post of chief of police. I can promise you that you will not be persecuted, and if incarcerated, you will be released if I obtain the position.

[He's not too happy about doing this so publicly, but there is no other way to do so. He's very careful to not say anything about himself, in the interest of cloaking his identity. If he's recognized by anyone that knows him, his modus operandi will obviously be leaked, which Kiritsugu knows many of the townspeople would not be okay with their chief of police having. Still, he doubts that they will have the time to divulge that before he gets everything he can out of this attempt. In the end, it's in the interest of everyone's escape. He feels no regret.]

But you're just as much a stranger to me as the last chief was.

The difference being in that I'm one of the kidnapped citizens. My main intention is to escape from Mayfield.

We don't know who the last police chief was. Some people think the drones are just people who were once like us, you know. I think they're right.

As do I. However, even if such an eventuality occurs, the simple act of being in the place of the chief of police can be used in our favor.

Unless you become like the last one.

Even that can be taken advantage of.

[Having not done so in a while, Kiritsugu lights up a smoke.]
