We see a blonde girl with her hair in a low bun, an ahoge, a pink suit, dark pink shorts, light purple socks, brown shoes, pink gloves, a pink bowtie, one silver hairclip, and one pink hairclip.
Kaede: [Narrating] Phew... made it onto the train fifteen minutes ahead of schedule! So far, so good for my first day on the job! My name is Kaede Akamatsu, and I just got hired! [She adjusted her nametag] I just hope people can read the scribble on my nametag... [She walked into the dining cart of the train] [Outloud] Uh oh, am I nervous... Is this first day on the job jitters? Working the train's dining cart can't be too bad! Come on, Kaede, shake it off! [She slapped her face, and that's when a green-haired boy with in a blue and red conductor's suit, gray pants, blue and gray boots, a blue and yellow conductor's hat, and a silver hairclip walked up to her. This was none other than the conductor, Rantaro Amami]
Rantaro: Kaede... Did I... Uh... Did I just see you hitting yourself...?
Kaede: R-R-R-Rantaro, sir! How are you doing this morning?
Rantaro: Ha! Quite alright, myself! Though, I'm feeling a bit bittersweet...
Kaede: Oh... Is everything okay...?
Rantaro: Well... Truth be told... Not really... Alas, today's my last day as a conductor... I'm retiring after so many wonderful years... Time for me and the Mirage Express to say goodbye to each other...
Kaede: Oh! Congratulations on retirement, Rantaro!
Rantaro: Thank you! My sister is very excited about it! She's already got our plane tickets to New Cork City locked! Our shower's been on the fritz, so I'm excited to use the hotels! Hahaha!
Kaede: I can see why your sister's excited!
Rantaro: Enough of my quibbles! Today's your first day working in the dining car! Here's the menu for today! [He gave Kaede the menu, and she looked over the menu, causing her to look a bit nervous] Why do you work so nervous? All we have on the train is a microwave! Hahahaha! Though, I'm sure a little quiz is in order! What's one of the foods do we serve in the dining car?
Kaede: That's easy! It's the Chicken Corden Bleu!
Rantaro: Correct! Glad you can read the menu! Hahaha! A little about the vessel, this is a state-of-the-art high speed smart train with all the latest technology! This train can really handle anything you throw at it! We've had a lot of adventures, me and this train! It's not easy to leave...
Kaede: After thirty-two years, I don't blame you for being wistful...
Rantaro: This train is exclusively used for events, it's not a passenger's train!
Kaede: I remember that from the interview! What's that event today?
Rantaro: A murder mystery party! Nothing better than some thrills to end my tenure as conductor! Guests will be funneled here to the dining car, as a home base, so to speak! I'll be with you to gather tickets, but after that, you'll be on your own! So, I'll need you to do everything in your power to make sure our paying guests our well-taken care of, understand?
