Hannzo nods then looks at her as she speaks in the even tone and volume.  "My quiet tone was not only to prevent offense, but to also prevent tipping off anyone nearby who might be responsibile."  Hanzo would say to Emi-san politely, he wasn't trying to say she messed up, more that they had to handle things differently.<br/><br/>"This is a Scorpion City."  He'd say before he'd motion towards the alcove.  The great Hida may have put her weapons away to show she is unafraid, but at least in hanzo's mind, now is the time to be prepared and gestures of their intent will be given later.  Given their proximity and being the only person who can look him in the eye without craning her neck she'd see he'd get really serious.<br/><br/>"Better to let the Thunder Guard patrol their streets.  I'm sure they'll be increasing movements with the attack.  Besides, then we can see where they travel, and where they don't." Hanzo would say quietly to her.  He wasn't a scorpion, but he knew from experiance that in large cities, there were places magistrates traveled and places they over looked.  The criminal element tended to search for the over looked places and that would be good information for their group.  Battle tactics urban style.
