[manuscripture]

Mmmmm...... I've written a lot of detectives in my time but none of them required a laser pointer as a 'tool of the trade'. Maybe I've been missing something.

[trenchdoting]

Huh! Are you some kinda writer?

[manuscripture]

Better: I'm a mangaka. I draw and write a horror and mystery manga back at home.

[trenchdoting]

You are?! That is even better! Aw man, to think I left my treatment back home... Whenever we bust out of this place, I'll show it to you! I'm sure you'll love it and make it into a hit manga! I call it The Life and Adventures of Gumshoe, Pal!

[manuscripture]

[ Rohan forces something of a smile...... ]

I'm sure it's... Thrilling. Remind me when we get out.

Anywho, Detective... You are lucky because I was here during the last round. I might be able to offer you information.

[trenchdoting]

I knew you'd love it! I just knew it! I'll remind you when we're out, you'll see!

[And then he also looks interested by that offer!]

So you're another person who used to be here?! Alright, pal. Come clean. I gotta know any juicy details you might have!

[manuscripture]

[ oh yeah he's so excited wow........... ]

That depends on where you want to start. I was actually one of the five winners in the last round. I'm Rohan Kishibe. I'm afraid I don't have anything to say on the team strategy. This is new.

[trenchdoting]

You were?! Wow, congratulations! I think.

So the team stuff is new? Hey, wait a second, pal! If you won in the past, how come you're playing again? And... and did your wish really come true?!

[manuscripture]

I don't know why I'm playing again. I was plucked up against my will again after I finally got to enjoy my prize of having the fire damage to my home prepared.

That is how the cookie is crumbling for me at this moment in time. Trust me, I'm not here again because I asked to be.

[trenchdoting]

Sounds like a rotten cookie, pal!! I'm sorry you had to experience this twice.

But they do give out the prizes for real, huh? Well, we'll just have to make sure everyone wins!

[manuscripture]

It's like biting into a chocolate chip one and finding raisins. [ Hmph. ]

They do. Eventually.

I'm afraid that not everyone will win. From my experience, only five people are allowed to win their grand prize. The rest will be killed or sent to the hotel where they will presumably spend the rest of eternity.

[ fun ]

[trenchdoting]

But raisins aren't so bad, pal! [He frowns.]

That doesn't sound good... But I still wanna do what I can to save everyone! And a hotel doesn't sound so bad... I bet we could figure out a way to bust out if we ended up there!

[manuscripture]

[ We're not having the Raisin Argument right now, man. ]

Yeah, I don't know about that but you can have all the wishful thinking you want to drum up in that cute little head of yours, Detective Gunshow.

[ That was his name right. ]

Try not to die and maybe you can work on chipping away through the windows, hm?

[trenchdoting]

[That would just be raisin hell.]

Deal!! I'll show you, pal!!

[A beat. Then he raises one of his arms to inspect it.]

...Do I really look like a Gunshow?

[manuscripture]

[ NO PUNS IN THIS HOUSE. ]

Is the coat just bulky, then?

[trenchdoting]

Maybe a little bit... but I have been working out!! About time it kicked in, pal!

i cant believe this

[manuscripture]

[ AW... MAC USED TO SAY HOW MUCH HE WORKED OUT... ]

I see you have~ [ He laughs~ ] Ah, but weren't we talking about something? Did you have more questions for me, Detective...?

i can

[trenchdoting]

[FUCK MAC]

Oh right! Questions... Um... Okay, what other questions should I be asking, pal?

[manuscripture]

[ DON'T TALK SHIT ABOUT MAC ]

Aren't you the detective, Pal?

[trenchdoting]

[DEAL WITH IT]

Heh! Guess you're right about that, pal! [He says innocently, with a soft chuckle.]

Okay, how about this! What about our hosts - you got any dirt on them?

[manuscripture]

[ Rohan tosses his head and looks at his nails with disinterest. ]

They're corporate mascots for mainstream insurance companies. I am not familiar with the personals but I know that one is representing Allstate, founded in 1931. The other is Progressive, founded in 1937. I'm assuming that they were brought to life for the purpose of direct advertising to mindless masses who need something to latch onto.

Like Ronald McDonald, the Burger King, and the stupid Taco Bell Chihuahua previously.

This game is literally run by advertisement media of the mass-corporate variety. It's what we have always feared...

Sentient advertising...

[trenchdoting]

Hold it, pal!! That's a lot to take in! So there's other guys who have been running this game in the past?! And they were... those guys?! But Ronald McDonald would never hurt a fly!!

[manuscripture]

Ronald McDonald sentenced two dozen or so people to death a few weeks ago.

I saw it with my own eyes. It was awful.

[ Pretty blasé about that but it's All True. ]

[trenchdoting]

[The detective looks shellshocked.]

That's... That's a sentence I never thought I'd hear, pal...

[manuscripture]

One I never thought I would say...
