[At the end of the day, the offer, on his part, was a flippant one out of the expectation of business that only came naturally; the Matoba did not offer anything for free, and likewise he always assumed that payment would be expected for the information he was getting out of this, in return. Scratching backs was a part of the lifestyle.]
[Yet he still stares in bafflement for a split second as Hizen digs into his bag of candy and sticks one out towards Matoba until he remembers the joking comment he had made, and has to hold back the laughter. It was like a dog trotting up to you with a stick or a frog in its mouth as a gift of affection to one of its pack; he can’t help the comical scene to his mind.]
I did say I was an expensive consultant, didn’t I? [He cheerfully grins and plucks the taffy out of Hizen’s outstretched hand, and popping it into his mouth like a greedy child.] I’ll accept this payment.

(Just held a bullet, looked at it, and came to the same nothing Hizen did. Something was here, the bullet isn't a regular material, and if they had more, they could probably figure it out. A candy is what Matoba has earned.
But with that, their meeting is... over! And considering he only came here for business, he's going to start heading off now. Find some better company..... like being alone. )
