Matsuda regarded the other man for a moment. As much as he wanted to just drop it and leave, he figured should probably answer the question. He couldn't deny that Mello had a pretty sharp brain, and could probably help him to figure out just how much danger L was actually in. At the same time, though, he definitely couldn't just forgive Mello that easily.

So much for the planned apology. The only thing he was really sorry about was that he'd wound up sedated for it.

"I'm just worried," he finally said, also taking a glance around. It didn't look like Mikami was anywhere around yet, so he could probably get away with admitting at least a bit more to Mello. "I'm thinking someone might try to kill him." Again.
