[ Maruki's not going to out himself as a first rate cyberstalker of the network. Adachi doesn't need to know that anything that's public can and will be read by him and Akechi, and they share interesting information with one another at a near constant rate. People really will just say anything on a public forum, and Sleepr is a feeding frenzy for them.
This isn't one of those little tidbits, though. It's not something Akechi cares at all about. It's not something Maruki should even care about, but–
Well. Living in a reality where he actually has friends, even if it's only a temporary sentence he's serving here, has given him some unshakeable habits. ]
Adachi-kun, I realized I forgot to ask you the most important question of all when you moved in!

Even if I lose, that narrows down a small range of dates, and I can just cook every night - I usually do anyway, so it's not like it's a big deal.
[ Bring it home, Maruki. Be the genius that you are. ]
Let me put all of my brainpower into this...

No!!! My future career as a psychic...
Oh well. I got close enough.
[ SIKE. Maruki got exactly what he wanted out of this. He can still hide himself away on the third to relive the worst day of his life in peace and solitude, and he has an excuse to force himself to spend the preceding two days at home instead of wallowing in anticipatory misery elsewhere. ]
Ask your question, then.
