The card appeared. I am Anomalous, and you have agreed to help Sakura get my earthsuit back?
Li nodded. "Why is Sakura helping you?"
The card smiled. Why does Sakura help anyone?
Li blushed. "Because...that's who she is."
Exactly. Now you will be distracting the facilities staff, while we log Crystal's death. Are you ready?
Li started wobbling.
*I thought she wanted this body alive...*
Ripples of laughter rolled into his mind. Of course I'm not going to kill my earthsuit, I just have to destroy it's old identity. Which means Crystal Grey must die, officially.
Li nodded. "I guess it doesn't matter to me. I'm not the one carrying it off."
The card frowned. No, but you mustn't hint that we're in there at all. Sakura will be in deep if she's discovered.
Li swallowed. So his part did matter.
