[color=ed1c24]"[i]M-man eating?[/i]"[/color] Ru uttered aghast at the thought. Her mouth was left agape for a few seconds from this new knowledge that the Oni spoke of. Lady Guan Du shook her head slightly as she was regaining her thoughts. It was a rather startling piece of information, but Xiu Ru could not stay in such shock about this heinous act of taboo. Ru kept her attention towards Ryuki, while she reached towards the fan that was snuggly tucked in her dress band.

With the fan pulled out, Xiu Ru began waving it up and down for a nice breeze. Her eyes darted towards Ryuki and spoke. [color=ed1c24]"I humbly thank you for informing me."[/color] Ru stopped fanning herself as she performed a quick bow towards him.

 Lady Ru was just about to fan herself once more, but this plan of action was not going to happen yet. For her attention was focused upon the man who appeared to be at unease. 

Perhaps he was considered with the foul creature who was preying upon men for a demented flesh-lust. Or perhaps he was concerned with the state of father trying to protect a sickly daughter. Or maybe, he was just concerned with someone taking a bulletin off the board. Ru was not quite sure, but she kept her attention on Shurui as he ascended the stairs.

Ru took a few steps to get closer towards the girl Shurui passed. As Lady Guan Du was close enough to her, she decided to speak to Nao. [color=ed1c24]"Pardon me, but I couldn't help but notice that perhaps you may have had a conversation with that man?"[/color] Ru waved her fan at herself, before she stopped. [color=ed1c24]"It may not be my place to ask, and I do not mean to offend, but was there a chance that the two of you spoke about one of the assignments?"[/color]
