"… what's happening to me?!" Mirii sighed, as she was walking on the hallway, while her head was tilted down and her eyebrows were up. "Why I'm not following the perfection ways?! How could I claim to know the art of finesse if I'm thinking about jokes?!"

Mirii's head rose, watching Tonna walking in front of her. Hun was walking on Mirii's left side, Bars and Grina were both walking on Mirii's right side with the girl ahead and the boy behind. Fara was walking behind Hun, as her head was turning a bit around.

"… at the same time…" Mirii's head rose. "I… I think that this perfection art needs a small adjustment. I'm not looking forward into giving any false superiority ideas… instead, I could lean more towards being more constructive than just being a complainer!" She smiled a bit. "That way I wouldn't have to lean too much over jokes… such a splendid idea, Mirii!" Her eyes closed. "I have successfully solved this dilemma with perfection!"

"Ugh, why they didn't invented a personal elevator who can be connected directly to my office…?" Tonna released a groaning sound. "Or better yet, a nice pad to install right outside my office…"

"So you are gonna get a bit fatty?" Grina grins, as her eyelids lowered to the middle.

"Impossible, since even as a chief I have to walk in pretty much every office and buildings." Tonna's head turned to her right, as her face frowned a bit. "I thought that chiefs had the advantage to send others running errands… instead, I have been moving much more as a chief than as a Supportive Agent!"

"Eh eh, like I think your belly is a bit smaller than before…!" Bars chuckles. "Do you also happen to eat less?"

"No, my diet isn't changed at all… but don't get me started with all the physical activity I have been doing!" Sweat covered Tonna's forehead. "Not even at the gym I moved this much! Even now, after lunch, I have to walk in a quicker pace than usual: after this briefing, I have to reach a town mayor to discuss the proceedings for a newer HQ… a smaller one than this one, but still doable because the town in question can be almost seen as a city."

"What's the name of the town?" Hun's mouth opened a bit.

"Sorry Hun, I can't tell that: it's confidential information." Tonna's head turned to her left. "I hope you can understand…"

"I do, don't worry!" Hun nodded, smiling.

"The mayor's main building is located inside a no-car zone… so that means I'm forced to park my car farther away from the destination and walk all the way there!" Tonna's arms opened wide. "I just can't have anything relaxing with this job!"

"Kind of weird seeing someone, who walks a lot, demanding for more lazy transportation…" Grina shrugged. "Even I would forget the meaning of laziness, if I had such routine."

"Siiiigh… but I hate so much doing all this extra activity…" Tonna's eyebrows went up, as her mouth downturned. "I was really looking forward to try out all those exclusive relaxing features, every chiefs have… I think I just tried twice a really nice massage chair."

"Tsk…" Mirii frowns a bit. "Tonna, please answer my question: how would you react if you look at all the fat you accumulated?"

"Well, of course I don't want to end up being huge… but the problem here is more about not being able to enjoy the rewards I rightfully earned!" Tonna's head shook.

"Oh sure, as if you managed to be a chief all alone!" Grina's eyebrows went down a bit, as her mouth slightly formed a 3.

"Ehm… I have been an Agent for a longer time than you." Tonna frowned a bit. "You are climbing those Ranks like nothing… I believe that even today's mission is gonna be full of rewards if you manage to achieve it."

"… how could Tonna not appreciate the possibility of being in shape? I couldn't be happier, if I had the chance!" Mirii frowned a bit more. "Obviously, I do have to give some time for my Agent job, for taking care my room, for receiving updates regarding the newest technology invented… but I wouldn't still mind to dedicate some time to my physical performances too!"

Mirii's head tilted down.

"Uhm… I do notice to have a much better shape than before… I have to keep such status if I want to ever be as perfect as I'm claiming!" Mirii's head rose back. "Not that's going to be a problem anyway… since me and the rest of the Inkinators are going to be sent in a newer mission."

Tonna stops in front of a door, as her right hand took off a plastic card: her hand brought the card's upper side inside a thin, horizontal hole.

Clic.

Her right hand retreated the card back, as her left hand grabbed the door handle, pushing it down. Her left hand pushed the door, as the woman walks in.

"Alright, let me get in front of the laptop…" Tonna kept walking, moving towards the desk's right side.

Bars' right hand pushed the door back, as it releases a clicking sound. Tonna sits on her office chair, as her head was pointing towards her laptop.

"I'm going to anticipate the location since I took a quick read at the recap section…" Tonna's right hand went on the mouse, as her left forefinger kept pressing the "Enter" button for one second. "… basically you have to reach Port Sorriso which is located in Sorriso, a few miles away from Inkopolis: do you happen to know this town?"

"I think I have heard of it…" Hun's eyebrows went down, as his head rose a bit, his irises went up, his right hand went on his chin and his right foot tapped the floor twice.

"Like, they had a videogame convention in there, some time ago…" Bars chuckles. "Too bad it was so turfin' expensive…"

"I happen to know something about its port." Mirii nodded, as her arms folded and her head rose a bit. "One of the oldest ports in the whole country."

Mirii's irises went to her right.

"I wonder what kind of mission this one is going to be… that port is known to be rather peaceful."
