===Speak with Adler===
:Adler: We meet again. How have you been? Chatted to any Wubbaboo lately?
: Why do you look so shady...
:Adler: Now that you've spent some time on the space station, don't you feel this place is... a little abnormal?
: Well, you're definitely a case in point.
::Adler: Hey! That was very aggressive. Cut it out!
: More than just a little.
::Adler: You're sharp. Seems like I found the right person for this.
:Adler: I've been collecting ghost stories from the space station... We have lots of Curios in the space station, and our researchers are constantly changing their research directions. When these two clash, they can result in many... odd experiments.
:Adler: Some of the experimental results were "left behind" in the space station, and live symbiotically with the researchers in their own way...
:Adler: I'm currently investigating the ghost stories circulating in the space station. Some of the following contents may be disturbing... So, only talk to me once you're mentally prepared!
===Listen to Adler's "ghost stories"===
;(Talk to Adler)
:Adler: Okay. So, the first story is the "Rowdy Security Door"! My extraordinary powers of deduction have yielded the following facts.
:Adler: Some time during the Amber Era, when the space station was not very organized and there were no set rules regarding Curio research...
:Adler: A genius researcher, full of anticipation and hope towards making scientific discoveries, embarked on the first Curio research project that he was personally responsible for.
:Adler: Like many young researchers, he was passionate, proactive, but also proud and arrogant. He dreamed of being the founder of a new school of thought, and wanted books to record his great deeds.
:Adler: But the researcher had an accident during an experiment, and his psyche was distorted and projected onto a Curio...
: Do you have an abridged version?
: Can we fast forward to the conclusion?
:Adler: You are being so lame! Fine. Here it goes: He died, but his consciousness lived on in the Curio.
:Adler: Then I think the storage rooms got changed, and his consciousness dissipated. Unfortunately, very few items can store a human consciousness, and the only thing that did not reject him was a security door.
:Adler: Therefore, among the many security doors on this space station, there's one that can talk! That about sums it up.
: That's it?
: So you've already found your conclusion?
:Adler: Yes... But this is just a hypothesis! I only heard about it from some researchers.
:Adler: But I think there's a grain of truth in such stories. I'm guessing someone must have seen or heard it themselves.
:Adler: Can you please ask around and see if you can find that witness, and then... discover the truth behind this ghost story? Please?
===Ask around and find the truth behind the "ghost story"===
;(Listen to Scornful Researcher and Skeptical Researcher)
: Listen
:Scornful Researcher: I've thought for a while that he's being weird. Who else do you see constantly working overtime in the lab?
:Skeptical Researcher: You are right... but that was just too bizarre.
: Doing overtime is definitely weird.
: It definitely sounds bizarre!
:Skeptical Researcher: Woah! Where did you come from? You scared me! Who are you? What are you here for?
: I want to ask about...
:Scornful Researcher: It's about that security door, right? I knew it. Someone leaked that info. Hmph.
: So, who reported it?
::Scornful Researcher: That silly man from our department! He keeps telling everyone that the main doors of the department are talking!
: Can a security door really talk?
::Scornful Researcher: We've already said that we don't believe in that.
::Skeptical Researcher: He was probably too sleepy and hallucinated.
: So, what do you think?
::Scornful Researcher: That fellow's body clock hasn't been working well lately and his mental state is pretty bad. I think it's all a figment of his imagination!
::Skeptical Researcher: His previous experiment failed, and I think he's been blaming himself ever since. Maybe he got rather traumatized and got delusional.
: I don't have any more questions.
:Scornful Researcher: Save your breath. There's no point in asking around. Trust me, this is most likely just a rumor!
:(Trailblazer): (Seems like the person involved in this case is their close colleague. He should be close by.)
;(Listen to Nervous Researcher)
: Listen
:Nervous Researcher: Just what kind of alloy... Or maybe, even air might work? Ahhh... What is that thing's receptacle!?
: What is "that thing"?
: I'm a receptacle, too.
::Nervous Researcher: Biological receptacles are not possible. I've already tested that out.
:Nervous Researcher: You've heard about it too, right? The security door that talks... Everyone has an opinion on it, but no one had grasped the heart of the issue!
:Nervous Researcher: And the issue is... What kind of receptacle can that person's bounded incorporeal consciousness get attached to?
:Nervous Researcher: If it can go anywhere, then could the entire space station be its receptacle!?
:Nervous Researcher: Aaah!!! I can't think! I don't dare to think anymore!
:(Trailblazer): (This person is just scaring themselves. I can't communicate with them at all. Better hurry and find the witness.)
;(Listen to Sleepy Researcher)
: Listen
:Sleepy Researcher: Did I... really hear it wrong? *big yawn*
: Do you want to get some sleep?
::Sleepy Researcher: No no no. The experiment isn't done yet. How can I possibly sleep?
: Why are you so sleepy?
::Sleepy Researcher: Oh, it's been so hard to sleep these days.
:Sleepy Researcher: I don't know who you are, but since you're here, I wanna ask you something—
:Sleepy Researcher: I... No, I have a friend who's sleepy all day because of insomnia, but he's definitely conscious and sane.
:Sleepy Researcher: One night, this friend of mine heard the department's security door make this weird sound...
:Sleepy Researcher: It was a brief sound of "woo woo" but if you listen closely, it's actually the sound of someone sobbing!
:Sleepy Researcher: My friend doesn't believe it's his imagination. Definitely not! But... How can a security door...
: You sure you're not talking about yourself here?
::Sleepy Researcher: Hey, don't point it out like that...
: Sounds odd.
::Sleepy Researcher: Yes, yes, I think so too!
:Sleepy Researcher: I want to get to the bottom of it myself, but I'm scared stiff. I dare not head back to check.
:Sleepy Researcher: You seem pretty interested in this... Here, I'll send the door's coordinates to you, and you can check it out... *yawn*
===Find the door making weird noises===
;(Approach the security gate)
: Investigate
:You reach the door, but it makes no sound.
:
;(A sad Wubbaboo appears)
:Lone Wubbaboo: Woooo...
:The Wubbaboo looks like it's gonna run away. And the sound it made was the same as that described by the researcher.
:(Trailblazer): (Looks like it's all a misunderstanding. Time to let Adler know about it.)
===Tell Adler the truth===
;(Talk to Adler)
:Adler: I knew you could figure this out! Quick! Tell me what you've found!
: (Tell Adler about the Wubbaboo.)
:Adler: Huh? That's it? Nothing more?
:Adler: So... it's all a big misunderstanding? No one actually heard the security door talk...
:Adler: But if I think about it, it does make sense. After all... few people on the space station can understand the Wubbaboos.
:Adler: But this is actually pretty fun for a story. I've got to note down the whole thing!
