                  ”Can’t blame a guy. The whole city’s
                  been trying to figure out what goes
                  on behind the Industries’ pretty face.”

      So, that’s what it was : curiosity.

        Curiosity killed the cat-deer, didn’t
        you know, pretty boy? Of course, Asami
        isn’t fazed by the ‘pretty face’ comment.
        Not much, at any rate. Slight irritation still
        lingers when all people seem to make out
        of her is a pretty girl.

                     "I assure you, there’s much more to
                     this business than a pretty face.“
