This hall seemed to have at least a couple people in it. He recognized Harvey, but that was it. No one else appeared to be all that menacing though, so he kept going. Last door on the right. He wondered idly what else might be there.
He hummed softly, out of things to say for the moment, as they finished up their journey. Wasn't far at all now. And things had gone surprisingly well.
A few doors had already been broken in, but otherwise the hallway was quiet. Subaru wondered if they just didn't bother putting guardians here very often? It seemed strange, since it was clearly a fairly popular destination.
Unfortunately, the door to the Patient Possessions room seemed to still be locked. "Oh, dear."
Subaru had mentioned visiting the room before, so it was kind of strange for it to be locked. Maybe it was just one that needed a few hard hits before it would go.
Offering his flashlight to Subaru, Yuuhi readied himself to give the door a few hard kicks. The boots were sturdy, so it shouldn't be a problem, the only real concern was the noise.
"Hold this and just whistle if you see anything. I think I can knock it open without much trouble," he assured the boy.
Subaru was definitely not going to be able to knock a door down in his current state, so it was just as well that Fai was apparently stronger than he looked. Popping stitches open trying to get into the room would be a really, really bad idea. Holding the flashlight, though, that he could do! ... It was really sad how little it took to make Subaru feel useful, at this point.
Yuuhi had to hold on to his right arm with his left, just to make sure the numb, useless limb didn't get in his way. Kicking was the most efficient way and Yuuhi was used to using his long legs to fight. He took a few steps back to build momentum, then ran at the door, snapping a kick at the rusted knob. It wasn't quite enough to break it, and he used the remaining momentum to continue the kick into an elegant flip off the door.
His landing was a little rougher than usual. Something like that was fairly standard back in the other worlds they'd traveled through, but for some reason it was harder to jump as high or do the kind of acrobatics he'd once been capable of.
He spun his heel for the next kick, delivering a blow that bent the knob far enough out of place for the door to be pushed open. The noise it'd all caused was troubling, but Subaru hadn't seen anything, so he continued on into the room.
