Kai didn't tell Akshay immediately.
---
Not because he distrusted the king.
---
Because he didn't have enough.
---
A suspicious signature wasn't proof.
---
It was a possibility.
---
And possibilities got people killed when handled poorly.
---
Especially in politics.
---
So instead, he went looking for Andre.
---
Which turned out to be surprisingly easy.
---
The man was exactly where Kai expected.
---
Eating.
---
"How do you always find food?"
Kai asked.
---
Andre looked offended.
---
"I worked hard for this."
---
"You stole it."
---
"I worked hard stealing it."
---
Kai rubbed his forehead.
---
"Come with me."
---
Andre swallowed.
---
"Crime?"
---
"No."
---
Andre's enthusiasm vanished instantly.
---
"Then why would I come?"
---
Kai explained what he'd found in the archives.
---
The missing shipments.
