As Mirii passed near the stairs, she slowed down once her eyes could clearly see the closed shoji standing upon her way.
"Groan… I don't have the time for" Her eyes expanded, as her head tilted downwards and her feet stopped.
She immediately tracked a pair of pink socks who were pressing onto the carpet.
"Nnnnngggh!" Her eyes squeezed and her fists clenched. "D-drat!"
"T-Technie!" The little girl panted, as her eyebrows kept shaking uncontrollably. "Enter inside…!"
"N-never mind such oversight!" Mirii rose her head back and frowned. "Hunley needs"
"What's going on in here?!"
The girl twisted behind, just as Fara reached her right side and mimicked her movement: Silin was walking out from the multi-door, with a scowl on her face. She was still wearing her cap and sporting her distinctive pajama suit.
"What's up with all the rush and strong knocks?!" Her arms folded. "You woke me up!"
"Silin, return in your room." Mirii snorted.
"Forget that!" The cap-wearing lady bended forward, sticking her tongue out for a moment. "Involve me into the mess too!"
"No!" Fara grabbed Mirii's right arm and pulled it more and more. "It's our affair! Mind yours!"
"… stuff is happenin' inside the secretive rooms, eh?" As she lifted her posture, Silin smiled a bit and kept her eyebrows slightly down. "Eh eh… guess that I"
"Silin, I said to return in your room!" Mirii scowled, as her eyes compressed a little. "Don't make me report your behavior to your mother…"
"Oh please!" Silin's hands clasped, as her eyes sparkled. "Do report me to my mother! Tell her that bad stuff is happening in those secretive rooms and that you do not let us check in!"
"There are no problems!" The tallest of the girls bended forward, as a vein popped out from her forehead. "Don't make me lose my patience, Silin!"
"Oh, sure there are nooo problems…!" She shrugged, as Silin's eyes rolled. "Fara shouted and treated your door like a punching bag… suuuure, there are no problems!" She snickered. "Do you think my mom is that stupid to not"
"SILIN!" Mirii gritted her teeth. "RETURN IN YOUR ROOM, RIGHT IN THIS INSTANT!"
"Ya got triggered, eh?!" Silin chuckled, as her right fingers grabbed the tip of her hat. "Wait until mom hears this one out…" Her right eye closed. "… you should had thrown me into the secretive rooms, instead of complaining about it."
"G-grrrrrr…!" Sweat covered Mirii's forehead, while still gritting her teeth.
"If you dare to tell her those lies, then I will tell her one of your secrets!" Fara growled, walking in front of Mirii.
"Eh?!" Silin's irises shrunk slightly. "… what are you talking about…?" She slightly whispered.
"Don't make me do this…" The smallest girl's eyes had hints of water on their surfaces. "… I-I don't think you deserve it…"
"Then, simply don't do it!" Silin frowned, as she folded her arms. "Let me report your secretive behavior over"
"No!" Fara's eyes went slightly watery, after she shook her head violently. "Don't spread lies on us, please! Otherwise I will tell to your mother that…"
"Tell her what?!" Silin grimaced. "Stop bluffing already!"
"You stole her money, Silin!" Fara's glove-like hands went in front of her mouth.
"WH-WHAT?!" Suddenly, the hat-wearing girl's face went fully paler.
"… despicable…" Smoke came out from Mirii's ears.
"No no no no no no, I-I didn't do it!" Silin's paler hands shook sideways, moving each in a different way than the other, while her head was convulsing visibly. "D-drop that off your head!"
"You did it because a friend of yours needed some money… I heard the conversation you had with her, a week ago!" Fara sighed loudly. "You forgot to close your door…"
"Sh-shut up!" Silin took off her hat, as she grasped it with both her hands. "I-I haven't stolen a-any money…"
"… hmpf!" Mirii's head rose, as she folded her arms. "Then, you will have no problem reporting your lies to your mother…"
"… ehm…" Sweat descended from the accused's forehead. "… … … … I… … … I-I forgot!" She chuckled briefly. "I have an online session to attend!" She grinned, while swallowing silently. "Oopsie! C-can't stay here chit-chatting with you…"
She began taking backwards steps, lowering both her head and her ears.
"Gotta go! I-I will still say everything to my"
"You will not get away with such theft!" Mirii's right forefinger pointed over the accused. "Your mother will know about this… and she will slap you for such"
"She had her reasons for stealing the money!" The shortest lady twisted over the tallest, raising her eyebrows. "Don't be mean to her, if she will not be towards us…!"
Mirii snorted, now staring at Hun's young sister.
"… tsk." Her eyes closed. "We must go..."
Silin wore her cap, as she was now in front of the multi-door and held its handle with a frown in her face.
"Wait till I find a way"
Mirii's eyes freed themselves: Silin's whispering mouth sealed, as soon as she noticed Mirii's glare. "Eh eh eh! I will make my way out!" She opened both doors, while grinning and blocking her eyes.
"... you better not construct any plan or strategy regarding the prohibited area." Mirii turned behind. "You will meet merciless consequences of economical nature, if you insist in your quest of imperfection."
The taller girl walked away, followed by Fara... as Silin sticks her tongue out and pulled her right eye socket, before stepping in the direction of the unsealed multi-door.
"... did you exaggerated a bit with this...?" The little girl's mouth downturned, watching Mirii approaching the shoji.
"Hmpf!" As soon as the lady was in range, her hands attached onto the shoji. "That little pest would pay with her own games, in order to satisfy her unreachable curiosity."
The Shrine-like door opened with ease, as the two Inklings were already crossing its revealed path.
"Hunley must be in his room, by now...!" She dashed forward. "Fara! Close that shoji down, now!"
The called lady faced the released shoji, as she folded it back like it was before. Mirii dashed, as she aimed at the unsealed entrance at the end of the hallway's last stretch.
"Hunley! Tell me you are alright...!" She gulped silently.
As her eyes focused better, she tracked down an Inkling man who was looking away from the running girl.
"A-a Shrine citizen...! Wh-what is he doing in Hunley's room...?" Her eyebrows rose. "More importantly... what is happening to Hunley, now...?"
