@Greeny111 Yep.
The talk goes like :
- You seem to want to keep them safe yet you don't trust them.
-Don’t mix up my profession with trust. I just do what I have to do.
I got the idea but I don’t really know how to translate the same idea in my own language. 🤣

@eddee okay here the "Don't mix my profession with trust." means that its this persons job to keep "them" safe the first person says the first line and the second person correct it by saying that just becuase his job is to protect "them" it doesnt mean that he trusts "them" in away
"don't confuse my job of protecting them with trusting them. I just do what I have to do." would be a good way to rephrase it.
hopefully you understand this a little more.
