On his way down to the first floor, Pit passes by Olimar's room. Maybe he could find more clues to this mystery in there, he thinks. Perhaps to what happened before he was shot. Pit knocks on the door, but nobody seemed to be inside. Not even a single Pikmin. So he reaches for the doorknob...

Locked. Of course it is.

He'd need Olimar's keys for that, because straight up breaking the door down would be rude of him, and besides, it looked nice. Like almost every other door in the mansion. Might as well ask him for permission to look around in the first place, too.

So he trots right on over to Dr. Mario's clinic, which was on the way to that window where it all happened.

The angel makes sure to remember the red and yellow trail of fluid connecting the two locations. Evidence that nobody helped the poor guy and he definitely walked over here himself. A rather disturbing thought, but then again, it was pretty early in the morning, and not a lot were awake at the time. So that grants most smashers a valid alibi.

He also notices that no more noises could be heard from the other side of the door, unlike the last time he passed here a while ago. He takes this as a good opportunity to enter.

"Hey uh, Olimar? Mind if I borrow the key to your room for a bit?"

"...Why?"

The arrow appears to be only half removed at the moment. Even with the tip missing, it's slightly larger, longer, and thicker than the usual arrow… Nonetheless, it looks painful.

"So I can find out who did this, of course!"

"Hmm… alright then. Dr. Mario said I'm not allowed to move right now, but… it's in my right pocket. Just be careful..."

Pit began to fish inside the other's pocket, searching for the key he needed to open the door. The Pikmin captain sure did keep a lot of random stuff in there, but eventually, he found what he was looking for.

"Oh, by the way… there's something I need to tell you, Pit."

"Yeah?"

"Pay attention to everything I'm about to say..." He says, staring up at the ceiling.

"When you go inside my room, you'll see a bulletin board on the wall. On it is a map and a bunch of photos. One of those pictures is of me and my family. It should be obvious which one it is. Detach it, then flip it over. Twelve numbers are written there, you need to add them together and divide the result by the square root of five. Don't follow the order of operations, just do things in the order I say. Anyway, add that to pi and find the cosecant, using your answer as the angle. There's a small metal box inside my drawer to the left of my bed. It's code locked, so round your answer to the nearest hundred thousandth, then convert it into an improper fraction and input its reciprocal into the lock. That is the password...did you get all that?" He finishes, having said that mouthful of words in one breath very quickly.

"Um… yes, thanks." Is Pit's only reply as he stuffs the key into his bag. "I think I might need help… Lady Palutena? Are you there?"

No response… She must have disconnected her telepathy link with me...

8:45 AM
The Scene, 1st Floor

Time to go check out the window. The picture book Pit had been looking at earlier was on the floor next to the couch; he must have dropped it in panic. Other than that, nothing seems to have changed… save for the two smashers standing nearby. Pit goes up to Samus and starts asking her some questions.

"Hi Samus! What do you know of Olimar's stabbing?" Pit asked.

"This was him?"

"It happened around 6 AM this morning. Where were you then?"

"All I can really say is that I was upstairs the whole time, at least until I decided to come down and saw this mess."

"Alright, then. Thanks for your time!"

"Well, Samus is a pretty trustworthy and honest person. She'd never lie, even if it was for the greater good of things. So I'll believe what she said."

The only other person there is Lucas, who seems a bit saddened by all of this.

"...Are you okay?"

"Yeah, I'm fine, but I heard your conversation with Samus… I was helping Toon Link look for his bow, because it went missing a few days ago. We still haven't found it."

"How many days was it gone?"

"Three, not including today. Say, if you find it, please give it back to him. Or me."

"…Toon Link's bow, huh…?"

8:50 AM
Olimar's Room, 4th Floor

The angel, after inserting the key he got into the door, is now searching for clues, and isn't really finding anything that seemed to be related to the case. Maybe evidence of something that happened before the injury that could have been the culprit's reason?

He tries to do whatever Olimar had told him earlier, but doesn't manage to get that far, as he realizes he couldn't perform this alone. There was way too much math (for him) involved in getting the password… He'd spent some time improving his literacy skills when he wasn't battling another fighter, but as of now, he's only able to read numbers.

Written on the back of the photo in blue ink are the numbers 978540193706.

"Lady Palutena? Hello?" He tries calling out again, as somewhat of a last resort.

Still no response...

"I guess I can just come back and open that box later… but there seems to be nothing else here…" He says to nobody, as he leaves and locks the door again.

Author's Note: Finally, an update! Now here's a little game: What is the password? I made it pretty simple. If anyone gets it correct, you'll unlock a bonus scene. (It won't affect the story.)
