His gaze is focused on Jo because, in truth, she's the unknown in this situation. Whatever Inej might have planned because of him calling her out like that, he knows how her. Jo is the unknown factor.
And yet most of his attention is on Inej. How she's sitting. The line of her jaw. Mentally assessing how armed she is. All things he needs to know, as well as the things he wished he could tell her. Such as that he wasn't that far over because he didn't want contact with her but that he wouldn't risk an episode of contact wherein he fainted once more. Once in their lifetime was enough.
Though her announcement brings his attention in laser focus before glancing at Inej and then back to Jo.
"Please tell me it's not witches. I've had enough of that sort of thing to last a lifetime or two. Though it does explain the Fjerda looks, doesn't it?
