"You fucking morons. You just couldn't leave it alone, could you? Fine." The doctor explains, looking really angry. Then he lets out a sigh.
"Yes, Fujisaki's one of my patients. However, I won't say anymore about him as that's strictly confidential information." He shot Fujisaki an apologetic look.

"Morphogenetic field theory seems to be a science fiction concept where all information is actually connected through an invisible field which human brains can connect to and receive information from in rare or extreme circumstances." It's immediately obvious that X's explanation will likely be useless to Sunny, but she continues, "So every human idea or piece of human knowledge is connected. When knowledge appears with an unknown origin, this theory seeks to explain that."
"It would be interesting to give ourselves more time but I know that Rooster's CDP is of greater concern to us," X says bitterly.

Mei looks at the doctor with a hint of worry, then shakes her head and glances towards Amethyst as well. "We should use our coin on the bomb timer. Seems really fucking self-explainanatory why, right?"
"I mean, obviously. His timer is going down as we speak, and everyone here is still reasonably high anyways." Amethyst nodded.

"We should still all have enough points left for at least two Gates, right?" Sun Taikong said. "Is it worth converting any of our own CDPs into extra hours as well? 3 hours from the 3 coins seems like a good amount for now at least."
"As far as I know, we all have four left." Mei says. "Which is more than enough for the time being. Converting only the envelopes is going to double our time, which is all we need for now."

She glared at Fujisaki "While he acted with haste and without discussion. Madam Yang said for each button pushed we could gain an envelope. If he'd waited until we were out to safety we could have retrieved more with the mechanism. We might still gain two more envelopes this way to distribute CDP with."
She checked her own bracelet "We should probably all see our own to know where we stand as well, lest some other misfortune has affected them."

"Our social contract is already strong enough that the envelopes are all going to a group choice. Horse, do I sense resignation in your voice? Perhaps you would rather give yourself the point?" X's mouth twitches into a small grin.

“What’s wrong with all of you? You seem to all agree with that doctor, that I have some condition, or whatever. It’s infuriating.” He then sighs slightly and shakes his head. “The doctor. He did not even see me for such a thing.”
“Regardless, I am willing to put the coin towards the bomb as well. I am also willing to use the coin in another way.” He glances at his two teammates, and then over to Sunny’s monitor.
He turns to the other two group leaders. “Do any of us have more than one coin?”

"... Hey, everyone. I just remembered something, about this empty stall and the empty cell." she eventually spoke up, taking her headphones off.
"During the drain or pass vote, we got eleven votes total. But Fujisaki couldn't vote at all. This means we're missing one player..."

Sun Taikong was in thoughtful silence after the revelation. "You know, thinking back to what Yang said before, 'three among us have been dead', or however she worded it. Was she referring to Snake? Maybe Snake is dead, yet still counts as one of the 12 of us. If they are, that would give them voting rights... not that, uh, they'd be able to make use of that, normally," he concluded awkwardly.
"If this Snake person really is dead like you're theorizing, maybe someone here has their bracelet and voted for them?" Suyin thought.

"That'd mean a dead person is actively voting, which is... impossible, really." Mei remarks, folding her arms and humming a little. "The most likely option is that Snake's just stuck in this place. Somewhere."

"Yeah, but, clearly they did vote..." Amethyst continued. "So if Snake is Fujisaki's specter, that would make them real."

"So if the Snake Player is alive and somewhere in this place... One problem, though.... Have we found any proof that is most likely the case?" The doctor asked.

"There's an eleventh player that's voting. Since Fujisaki can't vote, unless he's hiding a fucking robot arm somewhere, that means there's an extra person. One cell was empty and was supposed to have another person. Dead people can't vote, so there you go. Hidden person hiding somewhere." Mei concludes. The explanation was said in a very 'you-should-know-this-already' tone.

Fujisaki somehow rolls his eyes despite wearing sunglasses indoors like a madman. "Are you serious? She was in the washrooms. She's with us, and has been since we let her out of her cell."
"She's not a damn specter. The hell are you all on about? Dead? How can that be possible!?" It seems like he's getting angry again.

"She was not shot." Fujisaki frowned. "He missed her. Rather, she was swift and hit the ground. Naturally, the fire missed."

She raised a finger to her chin in thought "Though if I can muse a little bit, the idea of Snake being carried by someone else does have a certain mythological precedent." she gestured to Mei "Not that this means anything, but in the original story of the Zodiac that I was told, Snake hid on Horse's hoof and then hopped off at the end of the race, just narrowly beating Horse for sixth position while hardly running any part of the race. This might have some parallels with our Snake playing this game from afar."

"As for the zodiac story, well, there's so many variants out there. In the one I'm most familiar with, the rat hides on the ox to get there first, while the snake does nothing of the sort. Rather, the snake got its position by pretending to be the dragon's child, as the Jade Emperor wished to reward the dragon's magnificence. Who knows what Cat's version of the story is like? Maybe in the version Cat heard as a child, the Jade Emperor captured all the animals and made them play a death game to decide the order."
