| Tenma | I’m home. |
| Misumi | Welcome back~. |
| Kumon | Welcome back! |
| Misumi | Hey, hey, Tenma. Director-san seems troubled~. |
| Tenma | Director? |
| Izumi | Ah, Tenma-kun. Welcome back! |
| Tenma | Mhm…. I heard something’s bothering you, what’s wrong? |
| Izumi | Actually… I’m sorry to spring this on you right after work, but the manager said we’ve received a request from Rento-san… |
| Izumi | …So, we’re looking for people who can attend the Veludo’s music festival for MANKAI Company. |
| Misumi | I can’t, I’ve got my part-time job… |
| Kumon | I’m gonna be studying for a test… |
| Izumi | What about you, Tenma-kun? |
| Tenma | …I see. |
| If that’s the case, I actually play the triangle in the drama I’m currently filming. | |
| I’m being taught by a professional for my role, so if that’s works, I can go. | |
| Izumi | Really? That would be super helpful! |
| Um, the triangle spot is… Oh, it’s available! | |
| Misumi | Eh~! I wanna play the triangle too! |
| Kumon | Do we have a triangle in the dorm? |
| Izumi | Wasn’t there one in the storage room, or something…? |
| Misumi | I’ll go look! |
| Kumon | Woah, Sumi-san’s fast!! |
| Izumi | So, it’s safe to assume you’ll be attending, Tenma-kun? |
| Tenma | Yeah, leave it to me. |
| Misumi | I’m back~! Look, look! A beautiful triangle~! |
| Kumon | We really had one in storage!? |
| Tenma | So Misumi’s triangle sensor can be useful sometimes… |
| Izumi | Ahaha… But, we’re saved! Thank you! |
| Tenma | Well, I guess I’ll start practicing in the dorms tomorrow. |
| Kumon | Good luck, Tenma-san! |
| Misumi | Can I go play it sometimes, too~? |
| Tenma | I’m fine with it, as long as it doesn’t interfere with my practice. |
| Misumi | Okay, got it! |
 |
|
| Tenma | Yawn… |
| Time to start practicing my triangle. | |
| Alright, I’m pretty sure I left it around this side of the desk… | |
| ….It’s not here!? | |
 |
|
| *door slam* | |
| Tenma | Okay, I got it in the lounge, and then I went to my room… |
| D-Did I drop it somewhere!? | |
| B-But I thought I brought it to my room!? | |
| Izumi | Tenma-kun, good morning. What’s got you in such a hurry? |
| Tenma | When I woke up this morning, my triangle was missing! |
| Manager | What happened to your triangle!? |
| Izumi | M-Manager!? |
| Tenma | Uwah!? Where the heck did you…. |
| Manager | This triangle you’re talking about, do you mean the one that was in the storage room? |
| That one’s from a German manufacturer called Studio 50, and it’s widely used–. | |
| Izumi | I thought you brought it back to your room yesterday… |
| Tenma | Right? I thought so too… |
| Izumi | Only the three people who were in the lounge knew that Tenma-kun had taken the triangle, right? |
| Tenma | Yeah. |
| Izumi | …Now that I think of it, Misumi-kun said he also wanted the triangle. |
| Maybe… | |
| Tenma | Don’t tell me he immediately took it without me knowing…!? |
| *door slam* | |
| Manager | Wait, are you listening!? Please don’t lose it~!! |
 |
|
| *ding* | |
| Tenma | I knew it, it’s coming from Misumi’s room…! |
 |
|
| Kumon | Ah, Tenma-san! |
| Tenma | Where’d Misumi go!? |
| Kumon | He played the triangle a lot, so he went go return it before Tenma-san woke up! |
| Tenma | Did we miss each other… Thanks. |
 |
|
| Tenma | Misumi! ….What the, he’s not here!? |
| And he didn’t return the triangle either! | |
| Yuki | You’ve been so loud all morning, you’re not even dressed yet. |
| Tenma | Didn’t Misumi come by? |
| Yuki | What? He didn’t come. |
| Tenma | Damn it, where did he go… |
 |
|
| *ding* | |
| Tenma | There’s that sound again…! |
| Is it seriously coming from outside!? | |
| That guy…! Where are you going with my triangle! | |
 |
|
| Tenma | Oi, Misumi–. |
| Manager | You should hold it a bit higher, around your chest! |
| Misumi | Like this~? |
| *ding* | |
| Cat | Meoow~. |
| Crow | Caw, caw. |
| Manager | That’s it, wonderful! Paired with the animals’ sounds, it’s a great performance! |
| Misumi | The triangle is fun~! I wanna play it more~. |
| *ding* *ding* | |
| Sparrow | Tweet, tweet. |
| Dog | Woooof. |
| Manager | This is…! The symphony of the wild! |
| Tenma | Oi!? Misumi, you’re not answering me!! |
| Misumi | Ah, Tenma! |
| Sorry I took it without permission~. It’s just such a pretty triangle… | |
| I was planning on giving it back sooner, but I wanted to play it a little more… | |
| Then the animals started to sing along, and that made it even more fun~. | |
| Tenma | ‘When you play the triangle, the animals sing with you’, that’s too unique of an ability! |
| I mean, what’s the manager even doing here!? | |
| Manager | I heard a sound that seemed fun, so I followed it to the source. |
| I found Ikaruga-kun playing the triangle, and I got super enthusiastic about teaching! | |
| Speaking of which, we’ve been asked to participate in a music festival, would Sumeragi-kun like to join us? | |
| Tenma | That’s the entire reason I joined, to play it! |
