[ As if there weren't enough problems...

Saga is in his training clothes, standing alone with crossed arms quite deep in thought... but also there's a hint of sorrow on his face.

'Why?... Why them?... My Goddess... They were so kind and free of fault...'

That sweet woman and her old but kind father who owned the small grocery store...

When most of the villagers heard about the rumors of his actions, saying hurtful things behind his back and rejecting him... those two were the only ones who treated him like a human being and not like a monster. The Gemini knew them since he became a Saint; the woman at that time was a little girl and had such an infatuation on him, which Saga found quite humorous back then. Now... they are dead... and he can't help but feel sad with the sole thought...

He gives a few steps forward and changes his posture. A fist against his mouth and the other hand on his waist, as if trying to find a logic about what happened to them. Suddenly, his eyes get an angrier look.

'I will find the bastard who did this...'

Finally, he composes and straightens as the fearsome Saint he is known for... ]

[Problems and then some. Conan's come to the plane to check in with the others who have been investigating the disappearances when he notices Saga, apparently lost in thought.

His expression is bleak enough that Conan stops automatically to watch, wondering what is going on -- and it's not until Saga comes to his decision and straightens that Conan realises he's been staring.]

--ah!

[~~It is a problem when you scare little kids with such face lol~~ Saga startles and senses Conan's presence. Also realises his own behavior.] Oh. It's you. [His expression changes.]

[Conan is just as abashed.]

It's me! Ne ... I don't think we ever introduced ourselves.

[Smiles. Despte how he feels atm.] You are right. I apologize for that. I'm Saga, Saint of Gemini.

Edogawa Conan, class 1-B Teitan Elementary school.

Ne ... is everything all right?

[Nods at his introduction. But then his smile fades.] Unfortunately, no.

What's happened Saga-san?

There have been... deaths. At the village that is near Sanctuary, the place I live in.

Deaths ... ?

Did this take place about a month ago? Were the victims found with their left hand missing?

[Eyes widen at that statement in a flash and looks at Conan.] A young woman and her father... disappeared a few weeks ago... and they were found dead recently.

I heard about their hands being cut off from the pawns' conversations.

Four people from my world vanished then were found the same way. And Gwen-san's world, Inspector Menzies too, even more people ... in total, there were about 20 victims, I think.

I heard about Gwen's situation. She told me something about it.

[Thinks for a moment and frowns.] It cannot be such a coincidence. This might have to do with the Plane.

Her world was one of the first cases.

[Conan nods.] We think so too! That's why we're investigating.

['Investigating...'] Who are these 'we' aside from you?

Um ... it's Satoshi-niichan, Inspector-Menzies and Gwen-san so far!

I was in Rodorio today fetching food. Three more people have vanished.

[Saga lifts his head up at the presence of Mu but doesn't turn. His Cosmo gets angrier at the news. His voice dead serious.] Who were this time?

[There's a worried expression on his features. Despite he hasn't met some of them except for Gwen and Conan, he watches the people who come and go from the Plane.] It may be dangerous.

I think it already is. But we can't ignore it if people are in trouble!

Then you may need some protection.

Protection?

A farmer and his two oldest boys. As with the others, they have vanished without a trace.

[He clenches his fists and both tremble. He knew them by sight.] We need to investigate. Let no more villagers disappear.

[Crosses his arms.] Two kids and ladies.

The older Trainees, Dohko and I are already searching. I don't know if our Rodorios are the same yet, but I will tell you what, if anything, I find.
