Near the weak wooden floor, there will be an open door across it with large pots inside. On the far right of the door is a mechanism that will bring down a ladder once you activate it! Climb up the ladder, then plunge down on the wooden floor to break it.

This quest took a while for me to get too. You have to side with BOTH Junkichi AND Shigeru. So you have to get "Is this novel . . . amazing?" at least 2 times. Each person gives a different commission that comes the next day. Side with Junkichi and you get "This Novel seems . . Problematic." Side with Shigeru and you get "This Novel seems . . . Familiar." Once you get BOTH of these quests you get the "Editorial Opinion" achievement. Then "The Storytelling Method" comes next commission.

I can’t get this quest no matter what I try. I’ve done the daily commission a lot and no achievement or quest
