SIGN    My apologies for not being  able to contact you sooner. Both Hachiroku and Reina had to suddenly participate in a meeting with the humans.
[02:12] Kur
    What the?
SIGN    Therefore, the Raillord Summit will be conducted by Suzushiro-san instead. Thank you for your cooperation.
[02:17] Suz
