The Dorm’s Police Officer

Backstage Stories

Part 1Part 2

Kumon	Hmmm…
	How should I prepare for my role of a police officer?
Tsumugi	Thank you for helping me with the watering, Muku-kun.
	I was in a hurry, so that was a great help.
Muku	I’m glad we finished before you’re off to work!
Tsumugi	It’s all thanks to you, Muku-kun. I’m sure I wouldn’t have made it in time if I were alone.
Muku	I’m glad I could be of aid.
	Please let me know anytime you’re having trouble!
Tsumugi	I appreciate it.
	Alright then, I’m heading to work.
Muku	Have a safe trip and take care.
	*walks away*
Kumon	Three good deeds a day… that’s it!
Muku	Woah, Kyu-chan!
	What’s the matter?
Kumon	I’m going to play the role of a police officer in an upcoming traffic safety class, but I was a bit lost over how to prepare for it…
Muku	Ah, Ju-chan’s going to appear in that too, isn’t he?
	He went on a motorcycle patrol for his role study.
Kumon	Really? Nii-chan’s working hard too, huh?
Muku	By the way, why did you shout just now?
Kumon	Seeing you just now gave me an idea on how to prepare for my police officer role!
	I mean, policemen are heroes to the people in town, right?
	So I wanna do something to help everyone at the dorm too!
Muku	I see!
	I think that role study is wonderful. First and foremost, you can help people around you.
Kumon	I know, right!
	But that alone doesn’t feel police officer-y enough.
	I wonder what else I could incorporate?
Muku	Umm, some sort of related tool?
	It would be dangerous to walk around with a pistol though…
Kumon	Some kind of tool might be a good approach!
	Another tool an officer would use…
	I know!
	How about a whistle and a flashlight?
Muku	Good idea! I can just imagine a policeman making an arrest by blowing a whistle or going to check out a suspicious site with a light.
Kumon	Yeah, exactly!
	Alright, I’ll keep a whistle and flashlight on me and give it my all to aid the people!
	There, perfect.
	I’m totally ready to help the people in need!
Manager	Wah, wah, hold on!
	Please stop~.
Kumon	Huh?
	That’s the Manager’s voice. I’ll go take a look!
Kamekichi	You’ve got guts, don’tcha!
Manager	Please quit pecking me~!
Kamekichi	Put your whole heart into apologizing!
	I won’t forgive you ‘til you grovel on the ground!
Manager	That’s why I’m apologizing to you like this, aren’t I?
	Groveling on the ground is too much!
Kamekichi	Stop complainin’!
	*whistle blows*
Kumon	Hey, hey, Kamekichi!
	Violence isn’t allowed!
Manager	Eugh, Kumon-kun… I’m saved.
	I was about to be plucked bald~.
Kamekichi	For this guy, I need to pull out even more!
	Don’t stop me, Kumon!
Kumon	What’s got you so heated, Kamekichi?
Kamekichi	This jerk forgot to feed me for two nights!
Kumon	EHH!
	You must be starving…
Manager	Like I said, that’s why I’m apologizing!
Kamekichi	Don’t think you’ll be forgiven with just a few “sorry”s!
Manager	Urgh, then what should I do…
Kumon	In that case, why don’t you prepare a lot more feed than usual tonight?
Kamekichi	Oh, I like your thinkin’!
Manager	That’s a small price to pay if you’ll forgive me!
Kamekichi	I won’t go easy on you if you skimp out again!
	Prepare 100 grains!
	*flies away*
Manager	You saved my butt~.
	Thanks a ton, Kumon-kun.
Kumon	I'm super glad that issue’s settled for now.
Manager	…Hm?
	The sky on the other side is starting to turn.
	Shall we head back inside before it rains?
Kumon	Yeah!
	I hope it doesn’t storm too hard~…

Kumon	Here, Hisoka-san!
	I brought a blanket over!
Hisoka	It’s warm…
	Thanks, Kumon.
Kumon	You’re welcome!
	It got chilly after it started raining, huh?
Izumi	Wahhh!!
Hisoka	Was that Director’s voice?
Kumon	Did something happen?
	I’m gonna head over!
	*runs off*
	Director, are you okay!?
Izumi	I’m alright. Some boxes just came crashing down…
	I came to the storage room to look for some props I’m going to use to help out another theatre troupe. I found them, but I also made quite a mess…
Kumon	You found them?
Izumi	Yeah. Thankfully, I got what I was looking for…
	But now I have to clean up the storage room.
Kumon	I’ll help you in that case!
	There we go…
	All clear over here! What’s next?
Izumi	There’s just little things from here on out, so I’ll manage.
	Thanks for helping me.
Kumon	If it’s just a little more, then I’ll stay with you until we finish!
	Let’s see—can I put these here?
Izumi	Thank you, Kumon-kun…
	And yep, place them according to the shelf labels.
Kumon	This goes here, and this…
	*thunder rumbles*
Izumi	Ehh, a blackout!?
Kumon	That was a loud clap of thunder for sure!
	Maybe it struck close by?
Izumi	I-it’s dark and I can’t see…!
	Kumon-kun, are you alright?
Kumon	I’m totally fine!
	What about you?
Izumi	I’m good!
	But it might take a while until the lights turn back on…
Kumon	Ah, right! I have this!
Izumi	Oh, a flashlight?
	That’s a lifesaver. But how come you have that with you?
Kumon	Hehe. It’s for my police officer role study!
Izumi	Ah, for the traffic safety class!
	You’re so well-prepared, you even have the tools.
Kumon	I didn’t think I’d use it, but I’m glad I brought it~.
	…Ah, look out!
Izumi	Huh?
	*box falls*
Kumon	Safe in the nick of time!
	This cardboard box was falling.
Izumi	That totally caught me off guard…
Kumon	You didn’t get hit anywhere, did you?
Izumi	No, I’m fine.
	Thank you for catching it before it landed on me.
	*lights turn on*
	Ah.
Kumon	Look, the electricity’s back!
	Alright, let’s just work a little more!
Izumi	Right.
	Hm, this goes here…
Kumon	This goes here…
	Okay, I think that’s it?
Izumi	Looks like it.
CHOICE 1: I keep getting helped [+] Izumi You helped me tidy up and you shined your flashlight on me—I keep getting helped by you today, Kumon-kun. Kumon I was useful to you? Izumi Of course! You saved me, big time. Kumon YAY! I’m happy to hear you say that! Please let me know anytime any sorta trouble comes up! Izumi Fufu. I’ll be counting on you!
CHOICE 2: Choosing a flashlight was the right call [+] Izumi Choosing a flashlight as the tool for your role study was the right call! Kumon I spoke with Muku about what kinda tool would be the most policeman-y~, and he came up with that! See, holding it up to your face and infiltrating a suspicious site gives off that kinda feel, doesn’t it? Izumi Yeah. I was saved while you were at it too. Kumon I realized there are ways to use one not only for yourself, but for others as well!
Izumi	I was saved since you were here, Kumon-kun.
	You were a really dependable policeman.
Kumon	Hehe. Feel free to rely on me anytime you’re in a bind from here on out!
