> Well, whatever. We'll show them! Hit button 109.

>You hit the top button, and one of them snickers at the same time oh-so-coincidentally. The doors close a moment later, and the room starts to lift. Looking out the back of the tub, you can see the building plaza and street retreating away below. During this time, you are fairly sure you catch strains to the tune of "trashy", "meat",  and "garbage lady" from the youkai, and some more laughter. It takes only a few seconds from the doors to open again, as a light at the top of the doors lights up behind a number 3. The two of them get off, and several more youkai enter hitting their own buttons. None of them say anything, but you do get a few looks, mostly of the disapproving nature as the doors close again.
>Thus begins an odyssey of some minutes, as room stops every few floors, some people enter and some people leave. No one seems particularly happy to see you, but they don't seem interested in more than nasty looks. The room rises quite quickly, but smoothly. As you reach the upper floors, though, the stops become less frequent, and the last 20 floors you are left alone with no further stops. The doors finally slide open at floor 109 to reveal a small lobby, and glass-plated front to the establishment you were peeking into. Two doors stand across the lobby from you. Standing between you and the doors is a tall oni with muscular arms and an outrageous bust, her long brown hair woven into a braid. She wears clothing that reminds you of Reisen's jacket, save it is an entire suit of clothes. She regards you quietly and passively, arms crossed.

>You have to struggle a little, but the doors do come open.
>Stepping inside, you find that your initial assessment that the lower floor is ball room is correct. There is a chamber orchestra off to the side, and you are entirely certain the grand piano they have used to occupy the music room in the Scarlet Devil Mansion. And that harp, too. Curious, delicate-looking stairs without risers lead up to the upper mezzanine, to your left and right. Tables are set near the windows, with large brass vases being leafy, viney plants separate them. Practically every table is occupied by youkai and devils. You see a couple of devils with large serving trays, who were moving between the tables. As near as you can tell, a central sort of room serves as a kitchen. Looking around, you don't immediately see Koakuma or Patchouli.

>You head into the kitchen, see nothing on this floor that looks like an office.
>The kitchen seems like it is the state of barely contained chaos that any large-scale kitchen should be in. Youkai and devils are frozen in the process of preparing a variety of food and drink. You would need to restart time to really inspect it, but it seems decently clean. You, frankly, have no idea how some of the cooking equipment works or what it is doing, but you know what food cooking looks like. The ranges and the grills seem to be made, at least of plates of metal that are heated in some manner. There is no sign of anyone familiar in here.

>You climb the stars, and look around.
>The upper area is more dedicated to dining. Tables take up a lot of the mezzanine's floor space, booths line the glass walls. The tables and booths are a bit more sumptuous, and the clientele are definitely wearing their wearing in flashy jewelry, expensive furs, and other gaudy displays, putting the gaudiness of the lower floor to shame.
>Look around, you notice a corner booth with three devils; you are certain one of the is Koakuma.

>You approach the booth. That is most definitely Koakuma, wearing a silky low-cut dress and a feather boa, flanked by a two black-haired and ridiculously voluptuous devils, one in clothing somewhat like Koakuma's old uniform from your era, in another in a hoop skirt with bustle that is straining against the table. They seem to be enjoying some drinks together, the two unidentified devils listening to Koakuma and sitting much to close to her to be anything other than making a very unmistakable statement about the three's relationship.
