[Well. Guess this is his life now. Good thing detective work doesn't really require two hands.
Ouma's "guess" doesn't account for the possibility of a master key, which Shuichi duly notes, but that's easy enough to test so he doesn't argue the point straight out.]
But why one room would be particularly special in a place like this...?
[Since Ouma seems to have all the answers. He's not sure he really wants the answer to that one, though.
A quick look down the first floor hall reveals only a set of unremarkable matching doors. He takes a moment to try the key on one of the doors, but it's beyond pointless -- these doors all have key card readers like a modern hotel rather than an old-fashioned keyhole. He can't decides whether that's a good sign or a bad one.
There's a second floor, though, so he steels himself and leads the way up. With any luck, this hallway will look just the same and they can quickly write this place off and move on to investigate somewhere else, somewhere less generally stressful, like maybe that creepy hallway on the fourth floor or--
Fuck. There's totally a big fancy door at the end of the hall, no card reader to be seen even from a distance.]
