Yeah, I’m with you here. I can think of good reasons to both ignore the noise and investigate, so for the moment I’ve voted to investigate and hope there’s not a leopard about to attack us. People are welcome to convince me otherwise, though.
I guess it makes sense the kid is panicking; he’s in a pretty stressful situation, after all. Does make it a bit dramatic for the readers safe at home though, haha.
I would quite like to take a looksy at the noise
O for Ocean 
I vote no for the noise because it didn’t actually say what the noise was and so I think it’s some kind of angry animal hiding in the bushes.
yeah!!! we didn’t lose you along the way… you didn’t fall off the ship or into the water or off a mountain or into the jungle this time!!!
Ooh! I’m here!
I’m awake!
I have the book on my hands!

Go and try to see what’s making the noise

hmmmm… realized we didn’t get an update post!
太平洋を泳ぎぬけ - Escape from the Pacific Ocean! finally - we got some fish and grill it to go with our vitamin c rich seaweed. oh wait - it was all for nothing because we figure out these bigger fish might eat the smaller poisonous fish! we should not poison ourselves 
First we wander around the beach and gather all party members, then we decide to distract ourselves looking around the island. Maybe there’s a shelter or something. Let’s go! 
We wander around using a stick to scare away the snakes, and then we all stop. There’s a sound
…
…
We try to yell something but we’re nervous and it just comes out sounding like a whimper. Despite that, we decide to look

WE’RE ON A VOLCANO?? Actually that makes sense nevermind me
Imagine there’s actually no rescue on this island and there was a second ocean book about going to several other different islands to look for people
WOO A BOAT salvation is on the horizon!! (literally )
Please tell me we didn’t just get poisoned by the thorned plant
I don’t think its a good idea to hope another boat comes along before we possibly die of poison, I say use the flare
What if this just happens to be a boat blown off course and no one else ever comes this way? Saving the flare for a better time doesn’t make sense unless you know other ships are coming. Use the flare!
This was absolutely my first thought. I think I’ve caught protagonist’s anxiety 
Is this kid crazy? “I’ll just wait for the next boat”? Vitamin deficiency has apparently already set in or something. Use the flare, child, you’ve already used up your lottery luck having one boat sail by.
…毛むくじゃら (けむくじゃら densely covered in thick hair, hairy; fuzzy)
Um… Peeked at 103 and had to know what カツオノエボシ was Portuguese Man-o-War … It looked like a gyoza to me (I’m hungry at the moment, IRL)
@mitrac we should be good to go, right?
Sorry everyone! I’m struggling to put everything back together after I got bowled over by a big professional exam. I keep thinking I’ll get to reading the stage and posting the next one but I haven’t managed. I’ll definitely manage tomorrow evening and then we’ll be back to the usual weekly schedule!
sounds like you had to break your golem bottle and are awaiting on fully being healed…
…don’t worry you can re take the mage exam in a few years 
Yes you have summed it up masterfully 
!
太平洋を泳ぎぬけ - Escape from the Pacific Ocean! we have a look around, what is that strange sound?? And then we see hundreds of hairy bats 
staring at us. We decide they are cute and leave them alone, backing away slowly
Continuing up the mountain we find ourselves at the top there’s a crater! This is a volcanic island and we get a commanding view of the whole island and the gorgeous turquoise sea around it
…
…
Feels like holiday, there’s even a boat out.
Wait! Boat! We … wait? Waaaaaaa we run down the mountain to camp hoping to send a signal. Are we in time? Let’s try to send a smoke signal!

Congratulations. You won!
Here is your trophy!
I hereby induct you into the exclusive Winners Circle of the Survival Escape Game Book club!!! You can now use the official survival escape game 
logo where ever book club currency is accepted!
We had to overcome vitamin deficiency scares, storms, and survived curious turtle incidents.
Thanks so much everyone for joining, it was great fun to adventure with you all!!!
please wait until all active party members have clicked on the decision poll (or the stage deadline passes in a week) to openly discuss outside of spoilers that WE WON!!! 
Have a look from scene 108 for more survival lore at the end of the book 
Yay congrats everyone! We managed to not get paralytic shellfish poisoning or bitten by a sea snake, or die of scurvy! Good job all around!!
Thank you so much for hosting, @mitrac!! This was so much fun! 
I nearly had a heart attack when our boy lit up both flares. Luck was on our side, it seems; great job everyone! 
I’ve had so much fun reading with you all; these choose-your-own-adventure books are great.
Out of curiosity, why are 104 and 108 in the poll specifically @mitrac? Were they random picks?
Did other books on the series see the party escape successfully the first time? Or is it more common for a bad end first?
finally no more to add to renshuu!
if we do the next book, I probably won’t do this again, it takes so long to input all the sentences, parse, link to the dictionaries (if I knew if it was getting used but seems like it’s kind of a waste of time) … but hopefully one person down the road will be able to benefit from it… 581 words and 219 sentences (it’s not everything but a large enough chunk to study) - of course any alternate paths aren’t here in this list but if someone follows the club path this should work
feel like we kind of glossed over the treehouse building though
