The "Simon" is a submersible created by Sen that moves in response to sound. Today, not only Hakumei and Mikochi but also Konju accompanied him on his diving experiment. The boat dived in response to the sound of Conju's tambourine, but Sen seemed a little tense, perhaps because he was nervous. Then, Conjunge, who was getting excited after smoothly going through the waterweed zone, started to play too loudly...
