[The phone settles back near his elbow, a smile present on his face. He could really wait out the information - some braggart will come forth themself or through second hand information. But those words confirm-

People think interrogations are one sided, and they can be with the most vile of criminals, but oftentimes they work as negotiations. You provide information, they confirm or deny. They provide information, and you offer downgrades in penalties or protection.

[The notebook comes out from his pocket with a pen - a small paper bit of paper is torn off and Akechi writes something on it. Folds it. Places it under a palm that now rests against the table, while he switches to eat with his right hand with ease.]
