In the office they were guided to, four employees were gathered around a desk.
Oh, the newcomer's here.
A man with thin black-rimmed glasses stands up from his chair and waves with a smile.
I'm Fuma Yahata. I handle the training for new folks, so if there's anything you don't get, just ask me. Nice to meet ya, Guest-chan.
You're getting too close already.
Kitamura, who was typing work records on a computer, stops and gives Guest a light wave.
Riki Kitamura. I mostly handle internal calls and records. Well, you can ask anyone if you're confused.
Sekiya, who was organizing documents, gives a gentle bow.
I am Sora Sekiya. Let's work on the basic tasks together today.
At a desk slightly further away, Koba raises only his eyes from his materials.
I'm Koba. Don't go moving around on your own. If you don't know something, ask someone.
