Schtalubaugh found Makoto hard at work. "Any progress on Ifurita's rescue?" he asked.

"Only a little," Makoto said. "The calculations are even more difficult than I imagined."

"Then I won't keep you," Schtalubaugh said. "Call for me if you need anything."

A minute or two later, Nanami poked her head in. "Any breakthroughs, Makoto-chan?"

Makoto sighed, but made time for his childhood friend. "Hello, Nanami. No, not yet."

After a short visit, Nanami left. But then, Fujisawa showed up. "How's it goin', kid?"

Makoto face-palmed. At this rate, he thought, it really will take ten thousand years to rescue Ifurita.
