Surely that's what she means—or so Gepard had assumed, skimming the file that's been handed to him as he walks after Pela down the stone hallways of the headquarters.
Espionage is normally not his forte, his face attracting far too much attention when the necessity in such missions is to lay low. But there's no one else who had his capabilities in the guards and who has knowledge of the Underworld that he's acquired from the Oleg and the Wildfire. Hence his easy response to the Supreme Guardian's request, even if Bronya had insisted that he need not accept if it's too complicated. Gepard sees it as a learning opportunity, if not a way to hone his skills even further.
Their footsteps echo as they descend further into the headquarters, and it's only then that Gepard realizes that he's being led not to one of the offices or rooms but to the cells below. Does this mean his partner is one of the jail cell officers?
Perhaps someone who knows the Underworld better than him?
"Pela, where are we—"
The tiny Intelligence Officer leads him to one of the cells at the very end of the hallway, gesturing at Gepard. His blue eyes narrow, taking note of the person behind bars ... and the person guarding him.

"Is it Dunn?"
Because she can't be pointing at Sampo Koski.
