The message comes by carrier pigeon actually, which is a pretty weird way to deliver a message but of course, it's thematic. A very pretty looking brown pigeon swoops down out of the sky to wherever Shinnosuke just so happens to be that afternoon and holds out its leg. The message is short and simple:
Got a job for you. Meet me at the farm at dusk. No show, no job. Keep it a secret, rewarded very well.
- Hal
P.S. Burn this.
And that's it. Of course, if Shinnosuke chooses to listen to the message, he will find the Sheriff at the farm at dusk, chewing a piece of tobacco and watching the sun set. He'll be greeted with a tip of his hat and one word:
"Bounty."
And then he holds out a small notebook. Looks like Shinnosuke's been chosen for one of those roles that were mentioned. Good luck.
[He knows Milla already decided to ask, and it's not as if the Sheriff is necessarily more likely to give an answer even if Shinnosuke has a role—this should have nothing to do with the Bounties, after all—but... it's worth a shot.
(No, it's not. Even if the Sheriff tells him, either Milla will get the same answer or he's gained nothing but a secret he'll have to hide. This is a worthless move, and he knows it.)]
What's Seizaburo and Natalie's status? Are they dead?

Nah, they're just under the town.

... Do you plan for them to die or are they going to see the surface anytime soon?

Just how it works, son.
