The corner of Tatsuo's mouth pinches further at the mention if the first August. It's not a good thing to be compared to, in his eyes.
"Wait... Malik? The kid from--" from the warehouse. "Don't tell me..."
Tatsuo doesn't outright ask if it had been Malik. Because Dante had defended Malik. And a gun hadn't even been involved during the warehouse incident. And frankly the kid had kept his nose clean in the time since (at least from what Tatsuo could observe over the network). Sure, he was cynical as hell, but he was also very sharp. Why do something so stupid as to shoot a cop?
And then there was the way Togusa had phrased things. 'Working together.'
"So how did you get shot if that place was abandoned?"
