The door gives him some trouble, sticking at first like it won't budge and then suddenly sliding open. It knocks him off balance for a second, but he quickly recovers and gets outside. At least everything out there looks fairly normal, but there's no guarantee it'll stay that way. For now, though, he hops off the balcony, spreads his wings, and floats down to the sidewalk below, keeping an eye on Eiji to make sure that jumping from there is, in fact, okay.
