~ Theme Song ~
The rain had stopped earlier, but there were still few people walking the streets of Kirigakure's south district. Few souls would be out tonight, given the recent deaths of shinobi patrolling the outer limits of the village, it made sense that the atmosphere held a somber tome. Kaito had been pushed into patrolling the inner city, dealing with petty crime and such due to his insolence. Forgoing a proper reprimand do to the service he had provided for the city in bringing an end to the Raijū named Aoimoku, a demonic wolf spirit that had terrorized the village for the past three nights and killing more than a dozen good shinobi.
While slightly insulted, Kaito understood why he'd been placed on crime watch, he had disobeyed a direct order from a shinobi that far outranked him and went against the wishes of the village. Still, he had a hand in the Raijū's defeat and so he had been granted mercy to an extant. For the next week he was forbidden to leave the village, to even step foot outside the walls that guarded Kirigakure. The only exception was when he went home between assignments. Even that was only because his house technically fell outside the limits of the wall that protected the village, since he lived in a small shack next to the beach.
The case tonight had to do with a wealthy family in Kirigakure, not a shinobi clan by any means but a trading powerhouse. Kaito wasn't well verse in economics and so he'd never really heard or cared about the family until today. Appernely some sort of family heirloom had been stolen, an emerald necklace worth more Ryo than Kaito would know what to do with. There wasn't much worth in material things beyond their value to the village in Kaito's eyes, but orders were orders. Retrieve the necklace, along with any other valuable that had been stolen, and arrest the individual that had committed the crime. Simple really.
His betters has still seen fit to provide Kaito with a partner for the mission, despite the relative lack of danger in it all. The most difficult thing to overcome was the lack of decent information, but Kaito had ideas on that front. After all, such a valuable couldn't be sold on the black market without someone knowing about it. The south district was the perfect location to learn about such things, most of the criminals either lived here or had dealings in this part of town. Even the rich and powerful amongst them consorted with the lowest amongst their ranks in this part of town, where else could one hire a criminal to complete the tasks not covered by the shinobi of the village?
"I'd like to start by checking out the Murky Waters tavern, if you don't mind Eishi." Kaito spoke to his partner for the evening. With any luck, the two of them would be able to find some decent information. All they needed at the moment was to find out where one might sell such a valuable asset while not attracting the attention of the authorities., such as the stolen necklace.
Eishi seemed like a nice enough guy, from what Kaito could tell, though they hadn't had much time to get to know each other before being thrust together on this mission. The guy was roughly the same age as Kaito by the looks of it, and the two genin looked surprisingly similar, at least where their hair was concerned. As always, Kaito had worn his white and blue kimono, rather than his shinobi uniform so as not to attract unwanted attention. His headband was stashed in his back pouch for similar reasons, though the genin was still armed with his senbon and kunai as per usual.
Not really knowing how to dress informally, the silver embroidered kimono Kaito wore drew plenty of glances as he moved to enter the tavern from across the street. Plenty of shady looking people had come and gone already, and Kaito knew he'd find something useful from among the patrons of such a lowly establishment. They knew the type of item they were looking for, as well as it's value, that alone would give them all they needed to locate a proper fence for their needs, from there, their thief couldn't be far from their grasp. Find the fence, find the thief, and the stolen property to boot.
The tavern air smelled of stale bread and washed out ale, not to mention the permeating stence of old fish. The floorboards were almost entirely covered in a grey sand like grime, who knew when the place had last been cleaned. Kaito counted thirteen patrons, at least two waitresses, and the barkeep just on this floor. There was also a cat parading about in front of the fireplace. Two men were placing a board game in the corner that looked like nine men's morris, while a few others took bets on who would win. "Well now, aren't you a sharp looking taffer my dear? Care for an ale?" One of the waitresses asked, stepping up and caressing Kaito's cheek as her foul breath threatened to make Kaito spew his dinner. What did this woman drink? Rotten fish umami?
