You return to Ferris's House during the day while he's out at work. With no one home to see you do a more thorough investigation, you head to the living room and rediscover the mess that Hope had found earlier. And it definitely doesn't seem like anything has changed since then.

You get the feeling that Hope was right. Something isn't right here and someone else has been using this room to hide something. You don't think anyone else would suspect it because Ferris, from the outside, doesn't seem like the type that would be hiding anything, especially in a messy room like this.

You analyze the layout of the room, recognizing any patterns, disturbances, and anomalies that wouldn't occur with natural progression of time and aren't the result of what Ferris has done...

{Mysterious Living Room: <Science>}

After a very analytical review of the room, you realize that someone, very likely a Stalker, is using this room to hide something, but not a physical object. No, it turns out to be a message instead. And you've recognized this pattern before when you looked through the Material Logbook, as grizzly and macabre as it was to read through it.

Nhils is using this room in some way for record retention. Absurd, unusual, but unexpected. You trace these findings throughout the room, and they lead you to one place where Ferris probably hasn't checked in decades. Behind the dusty and dingy display cabinet. It's only further confirmed when you find there have been disturbances here lately. You then muster your strength to move the cabinet aside, and it's here where Nhils has been keeping a kind of hidden message only they know about. It seems as though they've been inked into the wood with a marker.

It's only two words, but it has given you everything you need to know. It's something Ferris would simply dismiss as nothing, if he were to ever even find it in the first place.

Item [LOTUS Password] has been added to the Team Inventory.

You then decide to head back to report what you've found to the others.
