No, he couldn't. He couldn't tell him why because the answer was obvious. There was absolutely nothing Omi could say that would help his case on that front. Batman had implied as much himself. Of course he was going to trust Robin over him. As he should. They were partners.

The statement still made him cringe a little. Yeah. He was a murderer. He killed that man because allowing him to continue his shadow business ripping the lives away from innocent girls was unpardonable. Omi didn't like what it made him, but he accepted it if that was the price it took to stop him. Sorry, Batman, but we don't have one of you in Tokyo, and we have to recognize you can't be everywhere at once.

He let his head drop a little lower. He said nothing.
