Rui

Listen

These drones... No, I'll have to leave them behind. And my maintenance toolkit...
2

Rui

Listen

I won't need that either since it's not like Robo-Nene will be going with us...
3

Rui

Listen

(It's good that I've started packing for the school trip, but I can't quite seem to decide what to take...)
4

Rui

Listen

Maybe I should look over that list again.
5

Rui

Listen

Let's see... My phone's a must, of course.
The guidebook with our schedule, cash, my student ID...
6

Rui

Listen

A few changes of clothes, toiletries, writing utensils and some basic medicines just in case...
7

Rui

Listen

Along similar lines, some wrenches, a screwdriver, wire cutters, solder, circuit boards and...
8

Rui

Listen

Come to think of it, I haven't finished reading these books... They're not on the list, but it may be nice to have some books to read while on the bullet train.
9

Rui

Listen

My ideas notebooks too, just in case I see or think of something interesting...
10

Rui

Listen

*Sigh*
My bag won't close...
No, what if I pressed harder?

Tsukasa

Listen

Rui, we're here!
12

Emu

Listen

Hi!
13

KAITO

Listen

<Hello, Rui.>
14

Miku, Rin & Len

<Thanks for having us☆>
15

Nene

Listen

You left your door open.
What are you...?
16

Nene & Tsukasa

Listen

Huh...?!
17

Luka

Listen

<Oh, your floor's completely covered in all these different things.>
18

Len

Listen

<I've never seen some of these parts before.>
19

KAITO

<Were you doing something, or have these always been here...?>
20

Rin

Listen

<Oh, I know♪
You asked us all to gather to help you clean☆ Right?>
21

Rui

Listen

Not quite...
I was packing for our school trip.
22

Tsukasa

Listen

You were packing? That doesn't exactly explain why we can't see the floor. Keeping things tidy has never been your strong point, has it?
23

Nene

Listen

There's no room for us in here.
How are we gonna watch the video of the 30th Anniversary Show...?
24

Rui

Listen

Sorry, I'll clean this up now.
Let me move these out of the way first so you can all enter...
25

Tsukasa

Listen

No, wait, stop! Don't move a muscle!
26

Tsukasa

Listen

There, now we can enter!

27

KAITO

Listen

<Ah, much better. Nice work.>
28

Nene

Listen

But there's this pile still left.
You said you were packing for the school trip, but...
29

Rui

Listen

Those are all things I was thinking about taking with me.
30

Rui

Listen

This is actually much less compared to what I originally had. When we went over to the United States, I took quite a few things that I didn't end up using.
31

Nene

Listen

But this pile's huge... I mean, do you really need to bring all these tools along? It's not like you're gonna be doing maintenance on Robo-Nene while you're over there.
32

Rui

Listen

I know, but I was thinking, “What if I need them just in case?”
33

Miku

Listen

<Just in case?>
34

Rui

Listen

Ah, for example, if the bullet train were to break down...
35

Tsukasa

Listen

Even if that were to happen, the rail company's repair crew should be handling that.
36

Rui

Listen

Then, what if the emergency sprinklers where we're staying malfunction and—
37

Nene

Listen

The teachers and staff will do something about that. Why are you under the impression that you have to fix everything yourself...?
38

Rui

Listen

Because it would cause everyone a lot of trouble if I didn't.
39

Luka

Listen

<Oh, Rui's our knight in shining armor.>
40

Emu

Listen

Yeah, that's so nice of you☆
41

Tsukasa

Listen

Yes, that is kind of him...
42

Tsukasa

Listen

But you won't have room for souvenirs and such if your bag is this full from the start.
43

Rin

Listen

<What?! You've gotta make room for memories!>
44

Len

Listen

<Yeah, Rui, you should try to have as much fun as you can on this trip...>
45

Rui

Listen

Thank you both very much...
I agree...

46

Miyake

H-Haha. Sorry, I know this is all happening really suddenly... It's also probably pretty obvious that I'm not exactly the outgoing type, so... I-If you don't want to join us, we'll understand!
47

Miyake

But it would be nice to have you in our group, Kamishiro...!
48

Rui

Listen

(Yes, this trip may finally give me a chance to...)
49

Rui

Listen

As worried as I am about certain unfortunate occurrences, it's probably best for me to leave some of these behind...
50

Rui

Listen

If possible, would you all mind advising me on what I should or should not take...?
51

Tsukasa

Listen

Of course! First, we're taking out all of these tools!

Sound Effect: Play

52

Rui

Listen

What...?! All of them? But...
53

Nene

Listen

You're not gonna use this soldering iron or these circuit boards. Emu, can you put these on that shelf for me?
54

Emu

Listen

Okay♪
55

Rui

Listen

Wait, but...!
56

MEIKO

Listen

<Now take out all these notebooks...
Um... You have one for directing and one for story writing?>
57

Luka

<You have so many different notebooks, Rui.>
58

KAITO

<I understand your reasoning, but you could bring just one for this trip. You could also cut and paste your notes into the right book when you get home. How does that sound?>
59

Rui

Listen

Yes, KAITO, you're right...
One would make things quite a bit easier.
60

Tsukasa

Listen

Alright, these too!

Sound Effect: Play

61

Nene

Listen

Huh? Books...?
62

Rui

Listen

...!
I was going to read those on the bullet train.
63

Nene

Listen

You were? Then, that seems fine.
64

Rui

Listen

Thank goodness.
I was worried that you were also going to toss those out.
65

Tsukasa

Listen

You give us far too little credit.
All we're trying to do is whittle this down to the bare essentials for your trip.
66

Tsukasa

Listen

Okay, that should do it.
67

Emu

Listen

Wow! Your bag feels so much lighter now☆
68

Rui

Listen

I don't believe it...
Just this for three days and two nights?
69

Rui

Listen

I really think I should take some tools—
70

Nene

Listen

Nope!
You'll just have to do with the ones you keep hidden in your pockets.
71

Tsukasa

Listen

I agree!
So, put that wrench down!
72

Rui

Listen

Okay...
73

Miku & Co.

Haha!
Hehe.
74

Miku

Listen

<I hope you have lots and lots of fun on this trip, Rui☆>
75

MEIKO

Listen

<We'll be looking forward to seeing what you bring back♪>
76

KAITO

Listen

<Now now...>
77

Rui

Listen

Hehe. Thank you all very much...
I promise to have as much fun as I can.
78

Rui

Listen

But it's getting late, so why don't we start watching the video of the anniversary show?
79

Rin & Len

<Woohoo!>
80

Rui

Listen

Thank you all for helping me with this.
81

Tsukasa

Listen

It was our pleasure.
Now, let's get that projector we set aside back out.
82

Rui

Listen

Yes, let's!
