(QM Note: We’ll do the 4 calls, don’t worry.)
You don’t think it’s time to fall for conspiracy theories. In fact, you’ll do what no conspiracy theorist has ever done, and that’s investigating the source of the issue! And you’ll do it in the most professional journalist way there is: by following the coldest trail!
“I gotta make some calls. You girls can play some S-Witch in the meantime.” You feel like this could take a while.
“We’re in the weeds now, Johnny. We can’t ignore this!” Amelia is ready to investigate.
“Who are you going to call? Emily?” Nariko makes the most obvious deduction.
“Pff, no, I’m calling Carol.” You act like this is a good decision.
“Famous Idol <span class="mu-i">YUNG-P</span>? That Carol?” Nariko seems surprised by where this is going.
“Oh noes! Our direct rivals are trying to sabotage us?! It’s so cliché, it’s genius!” Amelia completely agrees with your assessment.
“Ha! So afraid of our talents that they have to play low? That’s pathetic.” Nariko has an ego boost.
“Let’s not jump to conclusions. Let’s see what Carol has to say for herself.” You know that colder heads will prevail. “Wait, hold on, I need to call someone else first.”
“Who?” Amelia doesn’t know where this is going.
“One of our key talents.” You’ll call the recent debutant...
You pull out your phone and make the call to the clumsiest idol in the country…
“M-Manager? Is that you?” Vortexia is caught by surprise by your call.
“Eyup! It’s me!” You nod.
“What’s the matter? Are you making good on your word and inviting me to lunch? Little late for that.” Vortexia checks the time.
“Nope. Just wanted to call you <span class="mu-i">Clutz</span>.” You deadpan.
“THAT’S IT?!” Clutz is in utter disbelief.
“Yup. Unless you want us to meet up for dinner. You know where to find me. Anyway, talk to you later!” You hang up.
“JOH-” Clutz tried to say something, but the call is over. Probably to tell you that she does *not* know where to find you.
