BGM: Nuigurumi



Who should I start with?
I don't think it matters. Start with whomever you like.
I'd better think up a killer puzzle while I have the chance.
Maria, didn't you have a quiz book in your bag?
Uu! I do! Kihihihihi, I'm gonna bully Ange with a mean one!



Don't worry, I'll lend a hand.
Really?
Of course! After all, I'm the princess's attendant. So, let's give it our all together and get a huge pile of medals.
Okay!
Come now, Ange. Start wherever you want. I, Gohda, am ready to challenge you whenever you please.



It'll be alright. Let's do this together!
O... Okay!
Then let us begin, Ange. This is a story about December 25th, Christmas day.
Christmas...?



On Christmas day, a woman looked up at the night sky and spoke. "Eventually, the night will end, and morning will come. Wouldn't it be wonderful if, after the sun sinks and it becomes night once more, it could be Christmas again?" And then the man spoke. "Okay, I'll make your dream come true for you." Is such a thing possible?
The day after Christmas is the 26th, a normal day. That's impossible.
Sstill Christmas, even after the sun rises... Oh, I've got it.
Huh? How?! How can the day after Christmas be Christmas again?!
Wahhahahahahaha! Think about it for yourself, Ange.



It's time for the interactive portion of this LP. Play along at home, boys and girls!

Only click one answer. Then, right or wrong, keep going. As you go, keep track of how many medals you win. The riddles are beginning!

A: It's Possible
B: It's impossible

---

Krauss, Natsuhi, Hideyoshi, Rudolf, Kyrie, Rosa, Maria, Battler, George, Jessica, Genji, Nanjo, Shannon, Kanon, Gohda, Kumasawa.

...These are all gonna be pretty tough.



Do you want to try Hideyoshi?
Yeah. The order doesn't matter. After all, I'm gonna challenge everyone.



It's okay if it's hard. I'll solve it.
Oooh, looking pretty confident there! Okay, here it comes!



Mine's a riddle. Listen closely, now. You know the story of Momotarou, right?
The boy who floated down a river in a peach?
That's right. But you know, one day, an apple floated down that river.
An apple?!
Yep! And the next day, a butternut squash floated down it!
I hate butternut squash.



Okay, here's the question. What floated down the river the next day?!
Huh?!
I've got it. Do you get it, Ange?
I don't get it.
Then I'll give you a hint. There's a pattern to the things that float down the river. Can you guess what the pattern is?
Wahahahaha! What a huge hint!



A: Grapefruit
B: Onions
C: Lettuce

Then maybe I should give Ange a puzzle.
Huh? You will?
Sure. A quiz for the princess from her attendant! I've thought of a fun one, so please, have a go at it!
Okay, I'll have a go at it.
That's the spirit! Okay, here it comes.



That's right. So this will be a puzzle about traveling. There was a traveler in a certain place.
A traveler?
First, the traveler walked five kilometers north.
...Should I write this down on a piece of paper?
Don't worry. The puzzle isn't that hard, so listening to it will be enough.



...Five kilometers north, five east, five sousth... you mean, like a blocky 'n'?
That's right! You work it out, and he's in a spot five kilometers to the east of where he started.
That should be the case, right? But, incredibly, this traveler ended up in the exact same spot he started. Is something so mysterious possible?
Wahahaha, there's no way! His compass must've gone crazy.
Of course it didn't! Eheheh, do you know, Ange?
It wasn't because of his compass? Is this a play on words?
No, this is a real quiz. For a hint, why don't you try thinking about a globe?



A: A Very Hot Place
B: A Very Cold Place
C: Such a Place Couldn't Exist
