[f 0 5][f 2 1][f 4 6][f 3 1]Brrrr, it's cold...[n]Oh well, let's start the meeting.[n][f 1 3][f 1 1]

[f 0 5][f 2 1][f 4 6][f 3 1]First, allow me to report.[n][f 1 3][f 1 1] [f 0 5][f 2 1][f 3 1]Just in case, I've checked for missing[n]people in the local jurisdiction to see[n]if anyone may have wandered in there.[n][f 1 3][f 1 1] [f 0 5][f 2 1][f 3 1][f 4 9]Zero results. There are no missing[n]person requests, either.[n][f 1 3][f 1 1] [f 0 5][f 2 1][f 3 1]It seems that this place really doesn't[n]have anything to do with our previous[n]"case."[n][f 1 3][f 1 1]

[f 0 5][f 2 1][f 4 6][f 3 1]Hey, no fair.[n][f 1 3][f 1 1] [f 0 5][f 2 1][f 3 1]You said to rest, and yet you went[n]and did research.[n][f 1 3][f 1 1] [f 0 5][f 2 1][f 4 6][f 3 1][f 4 8][f 4 9]...But I went and checked the newspaper,[n]too.[n][f 1 3][f 1 1] [f 0 5][f 2 1][f 3 1]I looked for any news of missing people,[n]but there wasn't any.[n][f 1 3][f 1 1]

[f 0 5][f 2 1][f 4 6][f 3 1]I also tried asking our suppliers and[n]customers if there was anything going[n]on, but there aren't any rumors.[n][f 1 3][f 1 1]

[f 0 5][f 2 1][f 4 6][f 3 1]Ditto. I asked around at work, but[n]didn't come up with anything. You can't[n]underestimate the Housewife Network![n][f 1 3][f 1 1]

[f 0 5][f 2 1][f 4 6][f 3 1]Yeah, I tried talking with some former[n]punks, but didn't get jack.[n][f 1 3][f 1 1]

[f 0 5][f 2 1][f 4 6][f 3 1]Everyone looked into it...?[n][f 1 3][f 1 1]

[f 0 5][f 2 1][f 4 6][f 3 1]Just a habit from back during all that[n]other stuff. I mean, it felt better to[n]be doing something.[n][f 1 3][f 1 1]

[f 0 5][f 2 1][f 4 6][f 3 1]Considering that none of us could find[n]evidence, perhaps it's safe to say that[n]no one has wandered in accidentally.[n][f 1 3][f 1 1] [f 0 5][f 2 1][f 3 1][f 4 9]But more important is whatever Teddie[n]and Rise-san found. How did your[n]search go?[n][f 1 3][f 1 1]

[f 0 5][f 2 1][f 4 6][f 3 1]I can feel that "Hollow Forest" really[n]far away, but that's it.[n][f 1 3][f 1 1]

[f 0 5][f 2 1][f 4 6][f 3 1]I couldn't sense Emmy-chan's presence[n]at all.[n][f 1 3][f 1 1]

[f 0 5][f 2 1][f 4 6][f 3 1]That place... It's big. I'm glad we[n]didn't just jump in there without[n]making sure we were ready for it.[n][f 1 3][f 1 1]

[f 0 5][f 2 1][f 4 6][f 3 1]The "Hollow Forest," huh? Is that place[n]also affected by the mind of the person[n]inside?[n][f 1 3][f 1 1] [f 0 5][f 2 1][f 4 6][f 3 1]If that's the case... then did Marie-chan[n]make that area?[n][f 1 3][f 1 1]

[f 0 5][f 2 1][f 4 6][f 3 1]"Hollow Forest..."[n]We heard that phrase before...[n]In the last battle, right?[n][f 1 3][f 1 1]

[f 0 5][f 2 1][f 4 6][f 3 1]I was wondering the same thing.[n]Ameno-sagiri mentioned it.[n][f 1 3][f 1 1] [f 0 5][f 2 1][f 3 1]The place that gave birth to those who[n]answer the "desires" and "wishes for[n]lies" of humans... was that it?[n][f 1 3][f 1 1]

[f 0 5][f 2 1][f 4 6][f 3 1]Hold on.[n][f 1 3][f 1 1] [f 0 5][f 2 1][f 3 1]Are you saying that the image in[n]Marie-chan's mind is the same forest[n]that created that monster?[n][f 1 3][f 1 1] [f 0 5][f 2 1][f 4 6][f 3 1]...What's going on here?[n][f 1 3][f 1 1]

[f 0 5][f 2 1][f 4 6][f 3 1]So, wait... Is Marie-chan connected[n]to those monsters!?[n][f 1 3][f 1 1]

[f 0 5][f 2 1][f 4 6][f 3 1]The hell...? Who is she, exactly?[n][f 1 3][f 1 1]

[f 0 5][f 2 1][f 4 6][f 3 1]...Our objective is to save her, but[n]it doesn't seem like things will end[n]there.[n][f 1 3][f 1 1] [f 0 5][f 2 1][f 3 1][f 4 9]If she is related to those monsters,[n]then we need to do more research.[n][f 1 3][f 1 1] [f 0 5][f 2 1][f 3 1]What is she trying to do?[n]Who is she, really?[n][f 1 3][f 1 1] [f 0 5][f 2 1][f 3 1]It seems we have no choice but to go[n]see her and find the truth directly[n]from her.[n][f 1 3][f 1 1]

[f 0 5][f 2 1]"Let's go." [f 0 5][f 2 1]"We'll find her." [f 0 5][f 2 1]"Thanks, guys."

[f 0 5][f 2 1][f 4 6][f 3 1]Yeah, let's do it![n][f 1 3][f 1 1] [f 0 5][f 2 1][f 3 1]Whoever she is, we're not letting her[n]die like this.[n][f 1 3][f 1 1]

[f 0 5][f 2 1][f 4 6][f 3 1]Yeah, let's do it![n][f 1 3][f 1 1] [f 0 5][f 2 1][f 3 1]Whoever she is, we're not letting her[n]die like this.[n][f 1 3][f 1 1]

[f 0 5][f 2 1][f 4 6][f 3 1]Are you thinking that you're getting[n]us involved in your personal problems?[n][f 1 3][f 1 1] [f 0 5][f 2 1][f 4 6][f 3 1]Nobody's thinking that, buddy.[n][f 1 3][f 1 1]

[f 0 5][f 2 1][f 4 6][f 3 1]That's right! I'm burning up![n]Hrrrrrrng![n][f 1 3][f 1 1]

[f 0 5][f 2 1][f 4 6][f 3 1]Right, let's do it.[n][f 1 3][f 1 1] [f 0 5][f 2 1][f 3 1]We don't know what she's bummed about,[n]but we'll save her![n][f 1 3][f 1 1]

[f 0 5][f 2 1][f 3 1]> Everyone's hearts have come[n]together...[n][f 1 3][f 1 1]

[f 0 5][f 2 1][f 4 6][f 3 1]Wait a sec! If I come and save[n]Emmy-chan... That's like an arrow[n]straight through the heart, right?[n][f 1 3][f 1 1] [f 0 5][f 2 1][f 4 6][f 3 1]What should I do!? I'm not ready[n]for this...[n][f 1 3][f 1 1]

[f 0 5][f 2 1][f 4 6][f 3 1]Dude, I can't tell if you're being[n]a creeper or not![n][f 1 3][f 1 1]

[f 0 5][f 2 1][f 3 1]> You are now able to go to the[n]Mountain Cabin![n][f 1 3][f 1 1]

[f 0 5][f 2 1][f 3 1]> You hurry to the Mountain Cabin[n]to save Marie...[n][f 1 3][f 1 1]
