"Ah no, I meant the leading part..." Brook rephrased, but wondered if he was heard as Sai decided to pick up the pace.

He hoped that he hadn't somehow offended the young man with his question and so decided that Sai must have been going faster to make better time. There was always the need to spend time carefully when a destination was known, especially when they'd chosen a round-about route, and that was just what Sai did. They were soon through the building without mishap and out in the open. Brook was about ready to pause and breathe in the night air properly, but Sai's motions reminded him of the potential dangers, and he was against the wall just as he would have been on the Institute's other side.

Not knowing what places were dangerous again should not have left him so careless.
