You want me to play the police-spy on him.

[Slightly bitter. Police-spies like what Javert was referring to were low-tier police agents in France; the lowest, in fact. Those were the agents that donned the beggars' rags and played the imbecile while they eavesdropped along the most sordid corridors of Paris's underbelly. This suggestion along with the disinvitation feels like quite a demotion for his failure to deliver. And why shouldn't he be punished? Juno Steel succeeded where he failed, and thus, his superior deserves to wield all the glory, and scold his under-performing employees all the more.

Javert accepts the note back and drops it into the same pocket with his watch. He grunts tersely. He has not bothered to stand back up, since he has been relegated to the dog house and cannot take to his desk. He remains on the ground, legs folded beneath him, and sips the vile blood-coffee. It wasn't even warm anymore.]


Well. You had better tell me what it is I must look out for.
