*Minka goes to greet them*
Minka: Ah, welcome back. *Sips her coffee again.* You guys are probably exhausted. Should I show you where you can sleep? *Sips her coffee.*
Snow: Yeah, sure!
Minka: Alex, are you also staying here?
Alex: I guess so. I don't really want to walk back home since I already walked so much.
Minka: Alright, then come with us.
*They go to the door.*
Minka: It's simple. We go into the small hallway and wait until the water is gone, but hold your breath in there. The tool that lets us breathe underwater doesn't work in there.
*Minka opens the door and everyone holds their breath until the water is gone. Now she opens the next door, where there is no water inside.*
*Everyone inhales again.*
Yasu: Woah, it looks so comfy in here!
Alex: I know, right? I sleep here more often than at home. Speaking of home, I gotta text my mom that I'm here.
Minka: She won't be that happy, probably.
Alex: I know, but what else should I do?
Minka: You're right. Let's go to sleep now, shall we?
*Snow has already fallen asleep.*
Minka: Oh wow... Well, good night, everyone.
Yasu, Alex: Good night!
*Everyone is sleeping, including in the computer room.*
*At Yunichi's place*
Yunichi: Ugh, I can't sleep! Maybe I should check on Sophia.
*He takes out a device that looks like a headset.*
Yunichi: Hey!
Sophiaa: Zzzzz...
*Yunichi screams.*
Yunichi: SOPHIAA!
Sophiaa: Hmm?
Yunichi: How is it? Did you get enough information about the technology there?
Sophiaa: I guess so, but leave me alone. I don't want to talk to you anymore. You're making my life a nightmare. Just leave me here and don't ever wake me again.
Lillizia: *Yawn* Sophiaa, is everything alright?
Sophiaa: Yeah, sorry that I woke you up.
Yunichi: Go to the bathroom so we can talk normally and without these useless fishes or whatever around you.
Sophiaa: *Sigh* Be right back.
*She goes to the bathroom.*
Lillizia: Why is she going there?
*Lillizia stands in front of the door to listen.*
Sophiaa: Don't you dare speak like that to my friends.
Yunichi: Oh, Sophiaa, did you forget who you're speaking to? I could kill you anytime with just a click, pulling a lever. Do you want that?
Sophiaa: *Sigh* You're right, I'm sorry. Please just let me stay.
Yunichi: Come back to me.
Sophiaa: What?
Yunichi: I said, come back to me.
