[He's not surprised that the call turns out to be from Mello; there aren't many that would call him. What surprises him more that it's come so soon. He isn't sure what exactly he would have expected from the tone, so there's at least nothing unexpected from that.
[It has to be too early for Mello to have recovered properly. For him to try and turn this around and manipulate or harm him with it. Doesn't it? Maybe. Maybe not. Regardless, that this is happening at all at least intrigues him. He should investigate the matter, but keep himself on alert.
[After a moment:] Alright.
[He hangs up after that, goes through all the necessary steps of preparing to go out. Which means putting on the shoes, his coat, and tucking his knife up the coat's sleeve. He does not believe he will need the weapon in regard to Mello; it's just part of leaving the house anymore.
[Quietly, he undoes the security measures, and puts them all back in place once he's out.]
