"Oh, that's a good idea!" Nikki replies, pointing at Tsukasa as he does so. "But did you check out the pillars too? Like a hidden panel somewhere? Hmm... If I were a hidden door, where would I be...?"

The fact that he's encouraging this is definitely something to be worried about. Then again, this is very much Nikki's own curiosity coming into play... With his arms crossed and foot tapping, the teen is the picture of deep thought. Or as deep as an impulsive teen can be.

"Okay, so I know mom's still in the gallery, so we probably can't look there, but!" He snaps his fingers, "Do you think there's a library 'round here? If I had boatloads of money and had to hide a hidden room, I'd definitely put it somewhere out of the way. It wouldn't hurt to snoop around a little, so long as we don't break anything!"

Nikki gestures for Tsukasa to follow him as he walks back into the mansion because now they have a plan and even if they come up with nothing, it'll be a fun little scavenger hunt for a little bit. Sounds like a win-win to him.
