[This is simultaneously exactly what he expected, and startling. Not because he expected it, but because Takasugi's company has actually managed to surprise him to some degree. He bides his time with the worst of the worst, but maybe because he's being forced to directly interact, it seems so much worse. At the table, it's like someone cloned Troy Landry three times and the more they did it, the worse of a replica was created. He's dumbfounded as he's heckled for doing no more than passing along a bit of information and standing in place.
It's fortunate that he's never been one to feel the need to prove himself, seek revenge or backstab on a whim. The ball's really in his park, which is the only reason he'll give Takasugi a hard stare for that chuckle.]
That isn't something you need to tell me.
[His work here's done; it's something he could have achieved with a phone call. He's departing, a few brisk steps ahead of Takasugi, pointedly overlooks holding the door for him.
And once outside, he'll appear as unaffected as he'd been during the roast.]
Take care not to spend it all in one night. [His reimbursement, obviously.] You may not be able to handle a second hunt.
