Avoid the authorities? That was definitely a red flag. A strange girl alone in Tokyo, with no possessions on her, trying to keep out of sights of the police was definitely something one would call suspicious in this day and age, especially with Noise no longer being a threat. But then…
Chris retracted her hand and blinked, then put her hand on her hip. She’d heard of cases where girls who were assaulted might avoid contacting the police for a while after, out of shame or fear. Chris didn’t want to make any assumptions- she didn’t even look injured, just confused- and her bizarre name wasn’t really helping her case either, but if this was something bad… Chris didn’t want to be insensitive.
“All the way in Kyushu? You really are a long ways from home, huh? …Alright, I dunno if I can take you that far, but we’ll see what we can do.” She gave a shrug, looking off in no direction in particular- Kyushu was half the country away, even if Saga was on the closer end of it. She couldn’t really call in a favor from HQ either, since Number 4 was only a civilian, as far as they were concerned, meaning options were limited. And then, there was the issue of her lack of possessions. If she didn’t even have an ID card, then she wouldn’t even be allowed on the trains.
“You’re one weird girl, Four-san. I’ll getcha to Saga one way or another, though.” She repeated, turning back to the girl with a mildly perplexed look on her face. “But first, you’re not gonna get anywhere if you don’t have anythin’ on you. Cash and an ID especially. It’s not like you’re gonna walk all the way to Kyushu, right?”
Chris folded her arms, taking a few moments to think about her next move… But nothing was coming to mind, short of asking someone to drive this girl halfway across the country. As if that would happen. So she shook her head briefly, resolving to figure out their next step a bit later. “Well, for now, I guess I could take you to my place. Probably better than being out on the streets, right?”
‘I can explain’, it’s what you would like to say, but bringing up the truth is just so risky that you didn’t have the guts to speak your mind out at the moment. God knows what idea the other girl is having of you after all of this- you may not look like someone who could commit a crime, but thinking you could’ve been kidnapped or something along the lines was already pretty messed up.
“It’s really far away, yeah...but you’re being really kind and helpful even when you didn’t need to be, so, thank you.” You couldn’t deny something, though, it’s not that you were weird, but your situation really put you in a weird place. If you were just dead you wouldn’t have to go through all this trouble that is piling on you.
Passing a hand by your hair, you looked to the side and then let your shoulders to relax slightly.
“That’s a really kind offer on your part...and with my position, I can’t really reject it...” Better at the house of someone that exposed in the street with nowhere to go. On the other hand, your anxiety was already telling you how other problems will arise the moment you live with this girl while finding a way back home.
Taking a bath...the makeup is waterproof, but scrubbing your body with a sponge and body gel will definitely remove it.
“S-So...where do you live, Chris?...are you a student from around here?”
