"...Huh?"
Mei looked confused.
"What's dat supposed to mean?"

Akane looked at Fox and Mei suspiciously.

Fox looked surprised.
"What?"
He frowned at Nona
"Why are you asking me?"

Mei went over the possibilities in her head... Hidemi would have had 9 LP on her bracelet when she was killed. And her door would have cost 7 hours for the killer to enter in the first place. That meant...
"No way. No FUCKING way. You think it's one of us? Fuck you, bitch! I didn't do shit to her!"

"Listen. I'm JUST saying it's a possibility. Don't get your panties in a twist."

Mei slammed the wall with her fist as hard as she could.
"No! Fuck you! Fuck you in the fucking ass! You can't say shit like that without any fucking proof! What about Akane? She looks pretty fucking suspicious, you ever consider that!?"

He nodded at Mei, then turned back to Nona.
" Well, it wasn't me either, so you can just come up with another brilliant theory"

Nona held her hand up by her head innocently.
"Well again, I'm not making any any assumptions. I'm just saying... it's preeeetty likely. Blake couldn't've done it. He went through Door 2 in the first round, so he wouldn't've had a way to get rid of 2 LP after the murder."

"Then it was one of those two!"
Mei was glaring at Fox and Akane furiously.

He shook his head in something like disappointment.
"You really think I'm that kind of person Nona? That I could kill someone for Life Points? After what we spoke about earlier?"
He moved closer to her, so only she could hear
" I meant what I said, I would have given you a life card if I found it first, and I must be a moron because I still would. Call me a moron if you must, but don't you dare call me a murderer."

"That doesn't fucking cut it!"
Tears were beginning to pour from her eyes.
"Fuck this! Fuck all of you!"
Crying loudly, she stormed out of the hall and into Door 1, leaving a trail of tears floating in the air behind her.

Fox watched Mei speeding away, he turned giving Nona a significant look then followed the crying girl.

Blake rolled his eyes at the scene in front of him.
"Really? I didn't know those two were capable of putting on such an Oscar-worthy performance. Really, I was about to have tears of my own."
Blake sneered at the rest of the group.
"Give me a fucking break."

Mei stopped in the lounge... aimlessly, she floated still in the air with little momentum. She let the tears flow from her eyes, as though she'd been holding them in for a long time.

Fox hovered at the entrance of the lounge. He watched her for a few seconds, struck at how this tough little, foul mouthed girl was at last showing the immense pressure they were all under.
He called to her softly
"Hey"

Her eyes were dark red, and the makeup around her eyes was messed up. She could barely speak over her heavy breathing.
"W-What'you want?"

"Just wanted to.. see how you were"
He moved a little closer in to the room albeit still quite a distance from her.

Mei fully turned toward him.
"Then what's wit da distance? You scared of me?"

"No, I just thought you wanted some space "
He floated closer to her and looked her the eye
"I'm not afraid of you Mei"

She held her ground.
"Why? Is it 'cause you're the killer? You gonna off me, just like you did to my mom?"

" I'm not th-"
He reeled back in abject shock, sure he misheard or misunderstood.
" Your wha?"

"My..."

Tears came back heavily.
"She... she was my mom..."

He reached out a hand on instinct, then withdrew it hesitantly.
"Oh, Mei"
He breathed deeply then placed his hand gently on her shoulder and spoke calmly to her
"I didn't do this Mei, but I swear I'll help you find out who did"

Her crying grew louder. She covered her swelling eyes with her hands, but it was apparent that she had accepted his promise.

MEANWHILE...
Numb and Wataru were busy inside Door 7, solving Hidemi's unfinished puzzle...
It was a fitness room. Full of all sorts of equipment meant for staying in shape. I hadn't actually created any puzzles for this room yet, but since I'm so nice, I'll make one up for you all on the spot.
Puzzle:
The room contains a treadmill, a bike wheeler, and a bunch of heavy weights. There is a riddle found somewhere in the room:
"A man ran 5 laps around a field at 6 mph, and then turned around and ran 3 more laps at 7mph."
There is a map of a field on the wall. The field is perfectly circle-shaped, and according to the key, is 100 feet in diameter.
What must you do in this room, to proceed?

Get on the treadmill, and run about 1570 feet at 6 miles per hour. Then set the machine to go backwards and run about 1256 feet at 7 miles per hour. (In total, slightly more than half a mile.)
