"I see." Listening to what Tryndall had to say to him, Valyr nodded in response. After all, the two of them were told by Merdus a week ago that the city would handle the incident regarding the five Clossbay Killers after they had given information. To him, detaining the five seemed like the most logical step.
Though, this train of thought quickly disappeared once Tryndall continued talking.
"Let me clarify myself. The five suspects we've discovered to be the Clossbay Killer have all been detained yesterday." Seeing that Valyr did not find anything amiss with his words, Tryndall worded his statement differently, as well as added another statement to let the former realize what was wrong.
"And today…"
"All of them were released from prison."
"Huh?" At the very instant Valyr's ears registered Tryndall's last statement, a look of incredulity mixed with confusion appeared on his face, not expecting the situation to progress that way.
