Since Yasuhara was not a permanent member of SPR, he did not have his own computer. Most of the time, he used Monk-san's because Monk-san mainly used his computer for streaming videos of his own band. It was while he was at Monk-san's computer that he realised that he could hear voices coming from the other side of the wall. He absentmindedly pushed his glasses into place as he settled down to listen.
"Okay, you've messed around with it too much," said Monk-san in a pained voice. "Leave it alone now."
Why does he sound like he's in pain? What are they messing around with?
"Come on, we're almost there," coaxed Ayako-san.
Almost where? Oooh, this sounds interesting. I don't think I've ever heard her so be so firmly persuasive. It's tingly.
"We'll try again later."
"But Monk-san, you promised!" said Mai.
Two girls, Monk-san? You sly fox. What did you promise? Why doesn't anyone try to make me promise anything?
"Mai's right Monk-san. We've been waiting for a taste for ages."
Taste what? Oh, no. In Naru's office? Ooooh, that's dirty. I still can't believe they would be so bold to do this in Naru's office. During daytime!
"Fine. I lost and I guess I shouldn't be a sore loser."
So they forced him into this? That's interesting. Girls these days are so forward.
"Does it normally take this long?" asked Mai.
Oh, Mai. You sweet flower. So innocent and yet so eager to learn.
"Ask themaster," said Monk-san miserably.
Master? Is this some form of S&M? Yasuhara shook his head as he tried to dislodge an image of Ayako-san in a dominatrix outfit. Or is it her extensive knowledge in this area? Perhaps I should call her Ayako-sensei and she'll teach me...
"Just a little bit more."
Perhaps Monk-san needs some of those herbal supplements to perk him up? Maybe I should leave some useful websites open in his browser.
"Aaah!" groaned Monk-san.
"Oh, my."
"Finally," said Ayako-san, her voice dripping with satisfaction.
Oh, wow. It's done. Naru's office has been defiled. No amount of Lin's magic will cleanse this room now.
"It's stained the carpet!" moaned Mai.
"I told you this was a bad idea," complained Monk-san weakly.
"That's going to be a tough stain to remove," commented Ayako-san.
Shibuya Psychic Research, my ass. It's more like Sexual Perverts' Research. Not that I'm complaining. Proud to be a member.
"Forget about the carpet and have a taste, Mai."
"Mmm, it's a bit too strong for my liking."
"Oh, you'll learn to like it, Mai. I didn't either, at first."
Ayako-san, I see you in a new light now. Sure, it's a dirty, sordid light but it's a new light.
"It is a taste you have to get used to."
I wonder if Monk-san says that to all his band groupies.
At that point, Naru opened the main office door and Yasuhara froze. These three would get caught! He immediately decided to distract Naru and did the only thing he could. He walked towards Naru and fainted into his arms. Or at least he tried to, it did not go exactly as plannned because instead of catching him Naru let him fall.
Yasuhara fell heavily to the floor and when he looked up, Naru asked coldly, "What are you doing?"
Before Yasuhara could reply, the sound of his fall had caused the three occupants of Naru's office to open the door and peek through.
"And what are you three doing in there? My office is not a common room."
"Erm, Monk-san lost a bet and had to buy us a bottle of wine so we were drinking it in your office," said Mai.
"We were using your letter opener to get the cork out," added Monk-san.
"Wine?!" exclaimed Yasuhara, stupefied. "WINE! Of course, wine," he said as he started to laugh uncontrollably. "A cork!"
Naru frowned slightly at this slightly hysterical response. "What did you three do to my research assistant?"
"We'll take care of him," said Monk-san briskly as he helpedYasuhara up. "Come on, let's get you some air."
As the three helped Yasuhara outside, Naru entered his office. When they were half way out the door, they heard Naru yell, "WHAT have you done to my carpet?" and they hurried out of the office a little faster, still holding the wine bottle.
