[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.]


[Phone]

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.]

[Kirei is silent for a fairly long time before answering. Ostensibly, he was choosing his words carefully. In actuality he was running various scenarios through his head, attempting to gauge the other's reactions to better respond to them.]

Mayfield, is a diversion that has overstayed it's welcome. There are no plans of my creation that would benefit from a further prolonged stay here.

[Now that the grail of Makiri was no longer here, was the unspoken addition to his declaration. In truth, with Sakura Matou's presence Mayfield's only redeeming feature revolved around the existence, if in part, of Avenger. With the departure of both her and a handful of Heroic Spirits -- fuel for Avenger's birth -- what little luster the town had for Kirei was rapidly fading.]

[Yes, he's hating the fact that they have the same goal. This makes Kirei an unpredictable element in Kiritsugu's mind, since he has no idea when to pay attention to whatever he's doing.]

In that case, have you taken any steps towards leaving?

[He's still incapable of believing he's talking to Kotomine. Before coming to Mayfield, he had only spoken to him once, and only to speak of much more grave matters. Kiritsugu's not used to having conversations like this with any of his targets, dangerous as they may be.]

[Well. It seemed this gamble was at least paying off partially. Though he doubted he was truly being downgraded from "threat" to "wild card", the fact that a cordial, if terse, exchange of words was continuing was well within acceptable parameters to be considered a "success".]

Merely the acquisition and sorting of information. Time does not seem to be an issue here; considering factors such as the constant threat of loosing one's will, I felt it prudent to know as much as possible before making even one attempt to leave, lest I trigger reprisal.

[Kirei really did get wordy over the years, huh...]
