Basement Floor, Game Room

Next, we head to the game room.

Yui: Game room in a school? What’s going on...??

Hikaru: Well it gets even doubtful if this is a school...

There are various kinds of game devices from large ones to small ones, a monitor and a sliding door (which is unable to open). When I look down on a floor, there is some dark roots of a tree stretched around.

A girl behind a cabinet notices us and timidly sticks her head out, approaching us with a modest manner. She asks with a shaky voice.

???: Um, uh...Hello. Are you high school students...trapped in here?

She is a little girl with a complete doll face, whose height is as short as an elementary school pupil. She has a cute braid on her side.

Yui: Yes. We are exploring here and there for escape. And you are...,

Miyu: Uh, I’m...Miyu Katashiro, Ultimate Doll Maker.

Hikaru: Doll Maker?

Miyu: Yes, Miyu makes dolls. Mostly cast dolls, I think. ’Cause delicate joints and beautiful eye balls soothe me...

When she smiles, her short rounded eye blows, reminds me of tanuki, gently lower, which makes her expression much milder. Especially her sweet dress of fluffy frills like whipped cream is fantastically beautiful---She herself is a doll.

Yui: Nice...Your talent is so pretty,

On the other hand, Hikaru focuses on a different thing.

Hikaru: Hey, what’s wrong with your cheak? Are you okay?

There is a white piece of gauze on her cheak.

Miyu: Ah...I’m fine, I just fell...

Yui: Oh, that’s too bad...I hope you’ll get well soon.

Hikaru: Okay...No, not okay though! I mean, if you get threatened by the Monokubs, don’t hesitate to let me know, alright? I just want you to be safe!

Miyu: y-Yes...I’m sorry...You are so kind,

I don’t know why, but she apologizes with a dubious smile.
