Entry #008

The time seems to have gotten away from me. Today is my birthday, and tomorrow is Renji's.

I have been very busy lately with the inspector's visit. He has been understandably interested in my experiments and the methodology behind the results that I send to the UEA.

Renji - shall we have a shogi match this evening to celebrate together?

Happy birthday, Sadaharu.

You are a very valuable UEA asset, after all. HQ likes to be apprised on your situation.

That would be a pleasant way to spend our birthdays.

Thank you, Renji. The same to you.

I have been sending them regular reports. My experimental output has been higher than expected, they are likely curious as to what is driving it. Having reasonably competent co-workers does help.

Perhaps the environment is also more conducive.

With the lack of military personnel and sycophants invading my lab? It could be resulting in less contamination of my experiments.

I was thinking about the red tape, though it seems to bother you less than it does other scientists.
