"Not without making a lot of noise.  Maybe they keep a key in the main office?"

I curse softly. "Do you have any idea what floor that would be on?"

For that matter, I try to think back on my youth. Where did they keep the main office?

They're usually on the first floor, near the entrance.
Girls do their best now and are preparing. Please wait warmly until it is ready.

I look around the hall for any indication of entrance direction.

You can't really tell from the stairwell.  That being said, there's only really one direction you can go.

I begin to cautiously lead Louise down the hall. "Maybe it's this way?" I whisper.

You enter the hall.  It's pretty similar to the halls of the first floor, to be honest.  You pass by room 100 on the way out of the stairwell and see rooms 101, 102, and 103 ahead of you.

Please make hearing tests, if you would.

You don't hear anything other than the usual creaks and blowing winds.  Time to explore.

I turn to consult Louise. "Should we check the rooms one by one, or just try to find the office?"

I nod, then continue down the hall, keeping an eye open for an office.

Louise, you hear footsteps from somewhere in front of you.  It sounds like they're heading in your direction.

Becca, you just keep walking forwards.

Louise reaches out and grabs Becca.  "I hear something.  Let's hide in 103."

Louise then pulls Becca to 102 and attempts to open the door.

The door opens easily, and you walk in and shut the door after you.  Rather than a classroom, it looks like you're in a library.  There's a lot of, to be honest, weird books all over the place.



I made a mistake with the hall description earlier on.  It has been fixed.  There was an office-like (though not main office-like) room 100 near the stairs and rooms 101, 102, and 103 in the hall you were just in.

Louise closes the door behind them and takes just a brief moment to admire the library, then tries to locate a place to hide, possibly behind a bookcase.  She also looks at the titles to see if they are in english (or french)
