[Viktor doesn't particularly want to talk to Klingel. Beyond the fact that he now knows the man has no integrity--stealing and repurposing another scientist's work--he imagines he'll only say he was following direction from the military. Loath as he is to involve himself in those workings, he understands he needs to go above the Academy, in matters such as this.
Not that he thinks the military will be particularly sympathetic towards him begging for peace, not when they already have what they want from him. He manages a defeated shrug.]
