[NIGHTSHIFT 35] M31-M40 HALLWAY

Still no one.  Although he could hear muffled voices through a few doors, the corridors were so black that if it hadn't been for his flashlight, he wouldn't have been able to see where the walls met the floor.  The circle of yellow light bobbed with his footsteps, periodically swinging towards the walls.  He'd been caught off guard before, and he wouldn't let it happen again.

He counted the room numbers:  M34.  Easier than last night, that much was certain, but the design of the institute still infuriated him.  Landel had gone to great lengths to make their stay difficult, with the monsters and sedative-armed nurses.  Something like bad architecture just seemed petty.  He gave the door a solid knock then leaned against the wall beside it, the beam of his light still darting around the shadowy space.

"Yeah, that's true," Usopp perked up a little. He wasn't sure that the reindeer's nose was still as sensitive now that he had the all-human shape, but it was still a tiny bit blue, so it was probably a tiny bit reindeer-ish too, right? And if that made no sense, Sanji's cigarette smoke was a distinct enough smell for a human to follow, even for people with lesser noses. "I'll write a little note, and put it on the desk, then we'll head off, okay?"

The notebook came out of his desk, and he tore out a page, scribbling down on it quickly

"Chopper - Went out to the field over the wall with Sanji.
Other people - Stay out of my stuff or my 8,000 followers will crush you mercilessly!! P.S. It's not boobytrapped." Reverse psychology, yeah.

Leaving the note on the desk, he replaced his notebook and current pen, then turned to Sanji. "Okay! I think we're all set to leave, now!"

Peering outside his door suspiciously, Usopp stepped out into the hallway and started to head down towards the main halls.
