Minori

Listen

This day we've been waiting for... It's finally arrived...
2

Minori

Listen

We get to look at prospective properties for the MORE MORE HOUSE!
3

Rin

Listen

<Woohoo! We get to go house hunting♪>
4

MEIKO

Listen

<I'm very much looking forward to seeing what's on the table!>
5

Len

Listen

<That Kawanishi person found the places you'll be going to see today, right?>
6

Haruka

Listen

That's right.
Some are newer than others and they're all by different stations, but they all have the things we need.
7

Airi

Listen

Plus, they're all within budget.
If we do happen to find the right one, then it'd be great to close the deal.
8

Miku

Listen

<Umm... I have a question.>
9

Minori

Listen

Ask away, Miku.
10

Miku

Listen

<So, we all decided to tag along since house hunting sounded like a lot of fun...>
11

Miku

Listen

<But are you sure we won't be getting in the way? You're essentially choosing the office for your business...>
12

Airi

Listen

You're all more than welcome to be here!
13

Haruka

Listen

She's right. Once the MORE MORE HOUSE is up and established, we'll get to spend more time with all of you. So, you should all be here for this.
14

Miku

Listen

<Oh, then... Thank you!>
15

Miku

Listen

<Then, we'll help you inspect each one. We've also become quite good at hiding since you've been nice enough to take us to all those different places.>

Kawanishi

Ah, you're already here.

17

Kawanishi

Oh, I'm sorry. Were you having a call?
I can wait until you're finished...
18

Airi

Listen

No, that's okay!
We actually just finished.
19

Kawanishi

I see.
Then, shall we? Please join me in the car if you're ready to depart.
20

Miku

Listen

<Yikes... That was a close one...>
21

Luka

Listen

<Overconfidence can lead to mistakes, so we need to be as careful as ever.>

22

Kawanishi

Alright, that was the last one on the list.
23

Kawanishi

It's unfortunate that none seemed to fit the bill...
24

Shizuku

Listen

I didn't realize choosing a house would be so difficult.
25

Haruka

Listen

They all seemed really nice on paper.
26

Airi

Listen

Yeah, but the first one we visited had a huge pillar running through the middle, which would've made streaming a bit of a challenge...
27

Airi

Listen

The second one was ninety years old, but the pictures and floor plan made it seem like the perfect choice...
28

Shizuku

Listen

But the real thing told a different story.
29

Shizuku

Listen

That one room in particular...
I became so worried that one of us would fall through the floor during dance practice.
30

Kawanishi

I'm so sorry...
I was sure it was a good candidate based on the photos that came attached...
31

Haruka

Listen

No, we also felt the same way...
It just goes to show how important it is to actually see the real thing for ourselves.
32

Minori

Listen

But the third one seemed really nice!
It was clean and had the perfect floor plan for us!
33

Airi

Listen

Yeah, except for that giant hill we'd have to climb every time. That's on top of it being pretty far from the station, so I really don't think it's worth the trouble.
34

Haruka

Listen

It'd make for a great workout...
But we might regret it when it rains or after a long day at work.
35

Shizuku

Listen

Which would defeat the purpose of it being the MORE MORE HOUSE...
36

Minori

Listen

*Sob*
No... If it weren't for that hill...!
37

Kawanishi

I know how you feel...
Very few places are both that nice and reasonably priced. But there's always a catch. In this case, a large hill.
38

Airi

Listen

On second thought, I'm beginning to wonder if we're ever going to find what we want in our price range...
39

Haruka

Listen

We may want to start thinking about increasing our budget. However, that also means us having to work a little harder...
40

Kawanishi

...
41

Kawanishi

There's actually one more place that suits you nicely on paper...
42

Minori

Listen

Wait, there is?!
43

Kawanishi

Yes, but I didn't bring it up until now because it's a bit... Special...
44

Shizuku

Listen

Special...?
45

Kawanishi

Still, it may be worth a look...
There's still the question of whether the property will interest you or not.
46

Kawanishi

So, if you'll bear with me for a while longer, I can try asking the landlady to let us visit today. How does that sound?
47

Airi

Listen

Then, okay...
We still have some time on our hands, so it'd be nice to shop around a little more.

Minori

Listen

Yes, we'd love to go!
49

Kawanishi

Then, please give me a minute while I try to get a hold of her.

Haruka

Listen

What do you think is so special about it...?

51

MEIKO

Listen

<What if it's haunted?>
52

Rin

Listen

<Oh! Maybe someone really scary lives right next door!>
53

Minori

Listen

I-I don't know about a haunted house, but I think we can handle having a scary person next door!

Sound Effect: Play

54

Kawanishi

Thank you for your patience!
She gave us the green light to visit!

Sound Effect: Play

55

Kawanishi

The group before us just finished, so let's start heading over right now!
56

Minori

Listen

We get to see it?!
Thank goodness...!
57

Airi

Listen

Thank you very much. Let's go!
58

Minori

Listen

(Still, why's it so special...?)
59

Minori

Listen

(What kind of house is it...?)
