Rui's Room
Rui
These drones... I can't take them with me after all. The maintenance toolkit...
Rui
No, I'm not going to take Nenerobo with me, so I don't need that either.
Rui
(I've started preparing to go on the school trip, but... I can't quite seem to pack my things.)
Rui
I'd better check the list again.
Rui
Let's see... my smartphone, the itinerary booklet, cash, my student ID card...
Rui
A change of clothes, toothbrush set, writing utensils, and some basic medicine and band-aids in case something goes wrong.
Rui
Then there's a wrench, screwdriver, nippers, solder, and circuit board in case of emergencies...
Rui
Oh, I have that book I haven't finished reading too... I didn't put it on the list, but I'll take it to pass the time on the bullet train.
Rui
And I'd also like to include all my usual notebooks in case I come up with something while I'm away.
Rui
Haa, my bag overflowed again... I wonder if it'll somehow close if I push everything in.
Tsukasa
Rui, we're here!
Emu
Hello!!
KAITO
Hi there, Rui-kun.
Miku, Rin, & Len
Thanks for having us~! ☆
Nene
What are you doing, leaving the door open?
Nene & Tsukasa
Geh...!
Luka
Oh dear. There are all kinds of things all over the floor and the desk.
Len
There's a lot of parts and stuff I've never seen before~
KAITO
I don't know if it's just that they're here, or that they're scattered all over the place.
Rin
Oh, I got it! ♪ Everyone was coming over, so you were doing a big cleanup! ☆
Rui
No... rather, I was just getting ready for the school trip.
Tsukasa
That's all it took for the mess to become so huge that there's barely any room to stand... Looks like you're still not very good at tidying up.
Nene
We can't even get into the room like this. How are we meant to watch the 30th anniversary performance video?
Rui
Sorry. I'll clean up right away. In the meantime, I'll move this so you can get into the room-
Tsukasa
Ah, wait, wait, wait! Don't do anything!
— Some time later —
Tsukasa
Aha! Now everyone can come in.
KAITO
It's much cleaner now. Good job.
Nene
But there's still a mountain of stuff left to climb. You said it was luggage for a school trip or something like that...
Rui
Yes, it's all the luggage I'm planning on taking with me.
Rui
I did my best to reduce it. When we went to America, I brought a lot of things with me, but in the end I didn't use many of them.
Nene
There's still a whole lot of stuff in there... or rather, why is it mostly tools? It's not like you're going to maintain Nenerobo while you're out.
Rui
I know. That's why I only have essential tools in there that I can use if something goes wrong.
Miku
If something goes wrong?
Rui
Yes. For example, if the bullet train we're going on was to break down...
Tsukasa
If something like that happens, leave it to the people at the railroad company.
Rui
Well then... If the sprinklers at the inn broke down...
Nene
You can tell the teacher or the innkeeper about that too... Why would you try to fix it yourself?
Rui
That's because, of course, it if isn't fixed, everyone will be in trouble.
Luka
Oh, my. As expected of Rui-kun~
Emu
Yeah! Rui-kun is super kind!
Tsukasa
Well, it's true that he's kind, but...
Tsukasa
You can't put your mementos or souvenirs in with that much baggage. Is that okay with you?
Rin
Eh! It's no good if you can't bring back memories!
Len
I want Rui to have a lot of fun on this school trip...
Rui
...Thank you both. You may be right...
Flashback
Miyake
Ahaha, sorry for the chaos... I'm also not very social. So if you don't want to, it's fine if you say no!
Miyake
But... I'd be happy to go around with Kamishiro-kun!
Rui
(Indeed, this school trip may be...)
Rui
I'm still worried about emergencies, but I'll try to pack a little less.
Rui
Tsukasa-kun, would you mind giving me some advice?
Tsukasa
Leave it to me! First of all, let's get all these tools out!
Rui
Eh...! Wait, taking everything out is-
Nene
You definitely don't need a soldering iron or circuits. Emu, could you put this on the shelf over there?
Emu
Su~re! ♪
Rui
Wait, you can't...!
MEIKO
And then there's all of these notebooks. Let's see... stories for your shows?
Luka
Rui-kun uses a lot of notebooks, doesn't he?
KAITO
I see. But I think it's probably better to keep all of your show ideas in one notebook while traveling, and then copy everything over afterwards, don't you?
Rui
It's true... as you say, it's more convenient to just use one notebook.
Tsukasa
Okay then, let's get all of these out, too!
Nene
...Oh? There's a book in here.
Rui
...! That's the book I was going to read on the bullet train.
Nene
I see. Then I'll leave it here.
Rui
That's a relief. I thought you were going to take that out too.
Tsukasa
Oi, don't talk nonsense. We're just trying to get rid of the things you won't need for the trip.
Tsukasa
Okay, now you should be rid of the extra stuff.
Emu
Ooh~! The bag is so much tidier now!
Rui
I can't believe it... Can you really survive for 3 days and 2 nights with this?
Rui
I knew I should have brought some tools just in case-
Nene
You don't need them! Anyway, don't you usually keep tools in your pockets as well?
Tsukasa
That's right! Here, put down that spanner in your hand!
Rui
Oka-ay...
Vocaloids
Hehehe~
Miku
Rui-kun, enjoy your school trip! ☆
MEIKO
I'm looking forward to the souvenirs. ♪
KAITO
Now, now...
Rui
Fufu... Thank you, everyone. I'll have fun on my school trip.
Rui
Well, it's getting late, but let's watch the anniversary performance together.
Rin & Len
Yay~!
Rui
I'm sorry about all of this, everyone.
Tsukasa
Don't worry about it. Now, let's get out the projector I put aside.
Rui
Yes!
