There are 5 panels.
PANEL 1: Gus clasps his hands, interlacing his fingers in an inquisitive pose, and asks suspiciously: “And regarding the ‘animosity’? How resolved is that issue?”.
PANEL 2: Gefrei raises an eyebrow in mild surprise and indignation, and stares at Mako, who, like Gus, remains serious and impassive, awaiting his response.
PANEL 3: Mako raises a hand, as if waiting, and announces: “Proceed, co-commander”.
PANEL 4: Gefrei replies: “It has been solved. The absence of the concrete people should prevent more particular events”. Mako retorts: “I’m going to have to ask you to elaborate”.
PANEL 5: Not without reluctance, Gefrei glances somewhat wearily to the side as he recounts: “There were problems with one in particular, a foreigner. Ironically, to his eyes we were the foreigners. We tried to avoid them as much as possible. We thought that without directing our eyes at them, without exchanging voices… But accusative eyes see only enemies. When ears are deaf to reason, the voice only speaks insults”. One of his hands rests in a tense fist on the table.
