This morning, the universe gave me a sign that I'm on the right track, and a prod in a particular direction. It all makes me wonder, is Destiny steering my course, or something else...?
So I'm sitting in my office at Yamagato, reading up on my favorite sci-fi movie from 1963, when a drop of water splashes on my keyboard. The air conditioner vent is leaking again, so I go down to the basement to talk to maintenance, but no one's in the office. So I start poking around - this place is huge! Curiously, there's a little puddle on the floor, so I follow it looking for the source. Lo and behold, I find a battered, dirty door hidden away behind a bank of filing cabinets with this symbol on it:
My pass key won't open the door, so I run to find Kenjiro, who holds all the master keys. According to him, no one's been in this room for twenty years; he forgot it even existed. Apparently, my father used it for deep storage, and besides Kenjiro, only Kaito and his assistant had the key. Kenjiro opens the door, and we go inside. The place is a mess, dripping ceiling, puddles on the floor, torn apart files everywhere, videotape, stacks of old computers. There're muddy footprints on the floor that look fresh, so I'm guessing someone's been in here recently - looking for something. If this was my father's store room - his Danger Room - then it would have been spotlessly clean and organized.
Kenjiro spots a broken pipe, which explains all the water damage, and leaves to get some tools, so I have a look around. There's an exploded box of files near my feet, so I pick up the first one I see. Here's the only thing it contains:
What do you think? Should I go back in time to check this out? I'm a little wary of time travel these days... Too many butterflies. But I have a nagging feeling that this is one show I really shouldn't miss...
Anyway, I have my hands full for now. Going to take the next few days and start sorting through these files. Did I tell you Destiny spoke to me? Here, in Kaito's Danger Room, I will start my quest!
I'll share anything that looks interesting. Let me know if you come up with anything on your end.
