   “Ohh, I see...” Chiaki pondered as he explained about ghosts and spirits that are available to haunt at anytime rather than just the nighttime. After all, she was mostly revealed about them through media and superstitions. Although she wasn’t one to fully give in and believe if they are true or not, nonetheless she was curious about it all. Humans are definitely unusual but interesting, especially when they actively search for beings that could have the capability to hurt or kill. But then again, that couldn’t possibly be true either considering the myth of ghosts being around only at night had been proven to be false. “It’s a shame there aren’t any right now. I wonder what kind of questions to ask them...or what they could do if they found out you can reach out to them too.” Already she was hoping to meet one sometime thanks to the Ultimate Paranormal Investigator. 

       “Maybe there could be one out there. I’ve already walked past the park where the bridges must lead to other islands. Maybe you’ll have better luck out there once they’re open. I think.” This island was definitely huge and vast yet packed full of so many things and places to be, the possibility of visiting the others should be soon if they’re allowed some time. “Well, I know that everyone has been exploring or wandering around. I’ve pretty much been gaming here since I found these arcade boxes and the restaurant is upstairs too. I’m not really sure why there’s an airport if we can’t leave...”

It felt nice to have someone actually interested in what he had to say for a change. After his explanation he could see the interest in her pink-colored hues that she was becoming more interested in the conversation, this was probably the most enthusiasm he'd gotten from anyone here thus far. (With the exception of Hajime and Sonia who also genuinely seemed interested in the topic as well ) In Chiaki's case, being the Ultimate Gamer likely meant she had at least seen the idea of the supernatural in the horror games she'd played, though, of course, things were a bit exaggerated for the whole purpose of it being a video game.

Ghosts couldn't really kill people, causing a level of harm that great, would require an impossible amount of manifested energy, and from all the places he'd been to so far, as well as the research he did on that subject, he saw no record of a ghost killing someone, although there were certain scenarios that could lead to a casualty if given the right opportunity, so while spirits couldn't outright kill a living human being just like that, there were at least risks of being seriously injured, which could also lead to a potentially dangerous situation -- there was always a risk, it all depended on the type of spirit it was.

[{ 🦋 }] - "Tell me about it. I thought there would be more to look at here on this island, the other bridges being locked are a major inconvenience. But you're right, maybe there is something."

When she brought up the bridges again, a thought crossed his mind, now that she mentioned it, there was one thing Minato had heard about, apparently there was supposed to be a hotel of some sort on this island, but from the places he'd checked out so far, he couldn't recall any hotel being there until Chiaki had mentioned the bridges possibly being opened, hopefully eventually they'd be unlocked, especially if they were stuck here like Monami had said, the least their hostess could do was let them explore beyond the boundaries of those gates, and at this point, he only hoped that would happen sooner rather than later.

[{ 🦋 }] - "Well, at least you found a way to keep yourself busy, to be honest, I've been pretty bored ever since we first got here. After you've explored all that can be currently explored, you get bored pretty fast.. well I do anyway."

Minato had a feeling he knew the airport was there for him, to Minato, having an airport was an illusion of false hope, meant to make them believe they could leave when in reality, they couldn't. It was a way to taunt them, and while that theory seemed concrete, it didn't fully add up when Monami had seemed like she meant well, just in a rather unorthodox way, so for now, he said nothing in response to that. With nothing else to do, Minato decides to see if maybe Chiaki would want to spend some time together, he was already talking to her, so why stop now?

[{ 🦋 }] - "Uh.. hey. Nanami-san. Do you wanna hang out or something? I've got nothing to do today, and I've seen all of what this part of the island has to offer already, maybe we can check out the parts you didn't see yet?"
