I disagree with the assessment of it being a plot hole. Ishida......really doesn't seem to do those at all. Everything seems to come back to having a purpose.

We can argue all day concerning what we think Mutsuki did or didn't contribute. But ultimately, the entire operation wouldn't have happened without him. And that is probably a huge part of why he got such an enormous reward. Because this rookie with zero field experience went out, and handed them the keys to the biggest victory we've seen for CCG in either series.

Big Madam, it seems, was one of their most significant targets. She ran a major human trafficking ring, and had eluded them for years. Mutsuki's info and infiltration brought her down, once and for all.
