He doesn't understand. No - it's not that he doesn't understand, it's that he doesn't understand why Raju, of all people, would be on the side of potentially letting harm come to children. This is Raju, yes? Not some sort of creature just wearing his face.
Crozier sits down at the table slowly, pulling off his glove with his teeth and setting it aside. If he wasn't so quick to anger then he might have sat there and tried to see some other way around his friend's reply - some kind of rationale or reason that would justify his response. He isn't that man today though, and he feels his face start to set into a bewildered grimace.
"That doesn't justify killing innocents. Surely you can see that."
Surely a man as practical and intelligent as Raju can separate children in a situation not of their choosing from someone making an actual choice to endanger other people. Can't he see that? He's trying not to let the bile rise, but the more he dwells on how absurd it would be the more frustrated he becomes.
"They don't deserve to pay for the sins of their parents."
