[Ib returns the smile shyly and hesitantly as she takes Akane's hand. Akane's confidence is doing a lot to assuage her fears. Surely they'll be alright. The police will know what to do.]
Okay. Thanks...
[Ib's statement is short. She ran away too quickly to really investigate. She'd found James Kidd standing over Jade who was lying on the ground. She thought at first that Jade was sleeping, or perhaps they were playing a game- until she saw the bloody wound in Jade's chest.
She turned to flee and noticed two other bodies lying nearby. She was too scared to stay and look though. It's clear she feels bad about leaving without trying to learn anything, but the authorities are quick to assure the little girl that she made the right choice.]
