[that's gross]

I survey the surroundings before contacting Inukai-senpai. Then I call the police.

[koalai]

you suddenly discover that the phone lines dont work
and suddenly the power goes out dun dun dun

[plesiosauria]

Are there any sounds in the area?

[1/3]

[koalai]

you hear a door creakinnnnn,k,m.

[koalai]

[AND THEN SUDDENLY AUDIO.

... Except the voice on the other end sounds suspiciously like Hitomi.]

Koara, are you texting on your phone? Focus on the movie!

Mako-san, we've been watching horror movies for FIVE HOURS! Give me a break, I'm begging you—aaaah, what are you doing!? No, this is my phone! I'm allowed to text on it! Stay awaaaaaaay—!

Koara, don't be so stubborn—

still audio

[koalai]

—Never mind, you're now being chased by a woman with too much free time on her hands!

[There may or may not be the sound of actual footsteps now.]

[plesiosauria]

[He looks over his shoulder, phone now held up to his ear. After hearing Hitomi's voice, the possibility of woman's footsteps closing in is frighteningly higher than before.]

Are you running, Noboru-kun?

[1/2]

[koalai]

I'M FLEEING FROM MY DOOM!

[koalai]

... I just wanna sleeeeeep, why do we have to be marathoning horror movies...

[plesiosauria]

Do you have to watch horror movies as a squad? You should head home if you're tired.

[koalai]

She wanted to watch with someone, and Azuma-san and Okudera weren't available... It was fun at first, but I'm tired!? And we still have three movies left to go... Mako-san's stamina is really something, but aaggggh!

... Can I camp out in your operation room!? I bet Mako-san wouldn't dare break into Ninomiya Squad's room...

[He's making his operator sound so much worse than she actually is, but.]

[plesiosauria]

[But . . . there's still a chance that Hitomi could break in.]

Wouldn't it be better to negotiate with her than to run?

[koalai]

She's going to confiscate my phone! It's my only lifeline to sanity! Please, Tsuji-senpai, don't fail me now!

[plesiosauria]

[But. Hitomi.

. . . ]

The door's open.

[koalai]

[!!!]

You're the best, Tsuji-senpai! If anyone ever asks who's the best in Ninomiya Squad, tell 'em I vouched for you!

[plesiosauria]

[The best in Ninomiya Squad is obviously Ninomiya, though.]

Focus on running. You don't want your operator coming in behind you, do you?

[Tsuji doesn't want that, either. So, please, less talking and more running.]

[koalai]

Right! Smart as always!

[He's activating his trigger now, just for the extra boost... and then yeah, there sure is one koala swerving into Ninomiya Squad's operation room and collapsing onto the floor.]

[plesiosauria]

[Tsuji hopes Koarai wasn't loud enough during the phone call to have been heard by Hitomi. As soon as his junior enters, he enables the door lock. Hopefully, Hitomi will pass by without suspecting that Ninomiya Squad's operation room is the hiding place.]

. . . Are you all right, Noboru-kun?

[koalai]

[From where he's lying on the ground:]

I'm saved...!

[plesiosauria]

Take a seat at the table. I'll bring you some water.
