[Aware of their guest lingering nearby, Fukuzawa takes the slip of paper and folds it once, then slides it into his desk. He'll dispose of it once Dazai takes 'Collins' downstairs for lunch.]
I suspect you might enjoy the tuna more than me.
[It's not crab, but he knows about your like of seafood, Dazai. And maybe some gentle chiding will help make the conversation seem normal. If Collins is smart he'll know that information is being passed, but Fukuzawa wants to keep up the pretenses of a normal conversation for now. He's not going to strike at Merlin until there's proof of wrongdoing, and he wants Merlin to relax his guard enough for Fukuzawa to find that proof.
Incidentally, what is Merlin talking to the secretaries about? Because they definitely will give more information away than Dazai or Fukuzawa will.]
