Didn't really think about it!

I think the actual substance of the mystery (who and what and why) isn't important at this point, but more the general fact that whatever it is, Vice seems to get what's going on, but is keeping it a secret--and it's something Vice at his most immoral found humorous, so it's probably not a good secret. So while Ikki is putting more trust in him, we know he's being kept in the dark about stuff...it makes for a sort of shaky foundation for a "trusting" relationship.
