run on water
Lady
I wonder who turned Mr. Double Deal into a monkey? If Martha could break his spell, she would know that too. Martha said we need foam on the waves. The nature fairy told me there are sea horses in the zoo. Let's look for them.
I'm glad you checked out the fountain. Because the hippocampus was playing there. I scooped bubbles from this girl's wavy mane. This is said to speed up the effects of the disfigurement medicine used for Mr. Double Deal.
-
piercing cry
Valerie
I am sorry that Mr. Double Deal has turned into a monkey, but I am sure that the potion will work and we will be able to revert him back to his human form. Martha has asked me to find a bat to use in the disguise potion. Please help me find them!
Wow, this bat is so cute! Now all we need is for Martha to somehow add her screams to the disguise potion. That way, Mr. Double Deal won't be confused when he reverts back to his original form.
-
guiding light
Juliette
Well, that's awful! I feel sorry for ...... Double Deal for taking on the form of a monkey! Let's find the sparkling jellyfish that Martha needs to make the disguise-reversal potion. They're supposed to be at the zoo, but have you seen them anywhere?
Thanks for finding it. This jellyfish leaves sparks after it goes through. Martha said that the reason she needed this jellyfish was to light the way for Mr. Double Deal to return to his original form.
-
Stunning Transformation
Cardsharp
The double-deal guy turned into a monkey? Because I didn't make him turn into one. Roger's no angel, but that doesn't mean he can't be a monkey. I'll help Martha make the disguise potion. We need to find a dragonfly chrysalis.
Bingo! I found some dragonfly chrysalis! I'll deliver them to Martha. According to Martha, this will make it easier for Double Deal to return to his original form. Hey, wait up, Roger!
-
Get your memory back.
Martha
The transformation into an animal is a complex magic, so it would be helpful to have a detailed recipe for the potion used. This will make it easier to make the disguise reversal potion. First of all, we need a forget-me-not flower. Let's look for it.
You had a forget-me-not flower. This will restore Double Deal's memory of when he was human. I'll start making the disfigurement potion while I still can get him back to normal.
-
Fashion leader in the tree tops
Inspector
What in the world kind of animal interrupted Mrs. Green? While the ladies were talking, a strange monkey was seen on a branch. Perhaps that's the one who was making the noise. Let's find the monkey.
This monkey is wearing a jacket! Roger Double Deal was wearing the same jacket. Maybe the monkey picked up a discarded jacket, but I don't think he could wear it himself. And why is he out of his cage?
-
missing
Mrs. Green
My third husband disappeared with his mistress and I gave up my happiness. He was declared missing and I used his inheritance for the zoo. This is the money clip he used.
Yes, this money clip has a tiger on it. Tigers are popular predators and my husband was no exception. ...... Sorry, I guess I have to go.
-
all but dead hope
Mrs. Green
I figured I was just unlucky and would find the right person soon. Then I met the vet. He treated my animals perfectly. Look at the tools he used.
Exactly one year into my marriage and my second husband has left too. This time with the intern girl! That girl I loved like a daughter and ...... all he left behind were these tools.
-
Two Betrayals
Mrs. Green
People around me told me to take care of my family, but the zoo is my calling. I can't neglect it. My best friend took care of me and the three of us decided to relax. I'm sure the last present she gave me is around there: ......
This koyasgai bracelet reminds me of the day my husband left me. My husband left a note saying that he could no longer stand my callousness. I later found out that my husband was dating his best friend.
-
heavy-heartedness
Mrs. Green
I have loved animals since I was a child and my first husband helped me open a zoo. The best gift he ever gave me was a symbolic cornerstone. I have it in my office, please bring it to me.
To me, this stone is more valuable than a diamond. Because this is where the zoo began. I put everything I had into the zoo, but my husband wanted me to focus more on the home. But I didn't have the time.
-
witness
Lady
You are interviewing people who saw Mr. Double Deal at the zoo, right? I saw his "mirror image" when I was feeding cranberries to the spring peacocks. If you see the peacock, you will know what I mean.
A peacock's tail in spring reflects everything like a mirror. I saw Mr. Double Deal in that tail. He was holding a small box. It was tied with a ribbon, so that must have been a gift box.
-
What a surprise!
Isabelle
I saw Mr. Double Deal reading the tiger nameplate. And I heard him yelling. There was no one nearby, so he must have been shocked by the contents of the nameplate. You should check it out.
According to the nameplate, this tiger is a special "tiger of change," and if you look at it long enough, the color of its stripes seems to change. So the color of the nameplate changes too. Mr. Double Deal must have been amazed to see this.
-
Reason for hurry
Valerie
I saw Mr. Double Deal too! Eddie and I were hanging out near the dusky cougar cage and all of a sudden he ran really fast beside me. Where are the cougars? I know twilight cougars hide during the day. Can you find them?
Twilight cougars are creepy. Mr. Double Deal seemed to be running before he got to this cage. There was no one chasing him. Maybe he was running late for something. I didn't have time to call out to him.
-
Quiet observer
Mayor
Are you interviewing people to find out who saw Mr. Double Deal at the zoo? Then I'm a witness too. When I came to see the ancient tortoise, Mr. Double Deal was nearby. Have you guys seen the ancient tortoise yet?
The zoo owner, Mrs. Green, said the turtle had been given to her by her mother. Mr. Double Deal was looking at it intently, but then, as if remembering something, he quickly paced off somewhere else.
-
dexterous paw
Cardsharp
What do you want with a card cheater? I saw the double-deal guy at the zoo and he was alive and well! I passed him when I was near the "thousand-armed red rat" enclosure. Near the entrance. Look for him.
Aren't these thousand-armed red rats adorable? -I'd love to have one. He's pretty good with his hands. If you teach him to shuffle the cards, he'll be able to ...... what? Yeah, Double Deal just walked into the zoo all by himself.
-
Suspicious footprints
Inspector
The evidence suggests that the owner of the bow tie was attacked. But it doesn't necessarily mean that he was attacked by a tiger. Were there any other animal tracks left outside the cage?
Were there fresh footprints on the ground? But they don't look like the footprints of a predator. They look like the footprints of a small monkey. It is hard to imagine that a monkey attacked a visitor.
-
Tight locks
Inspector
The red spots on the bow tie indicate that the owner may have fallen prey to this predator. But in order for the tiger to pounce, it must first be able to get out of its cage. Let's check the lock.
The locks on the tiger's cage are solid. The door could not be opened by any chance, nor could it be broken by a tiger's paw. Unless someone deliberately opened the door, the tiger would never get out of its cage.
-
certain evidence
Adeline Svensson
My reporter's intuition is tingling... the owner of the bow tie was going to feed the zebra, but the tiger ate him. There's something shiny in the bushes near the tiger's cage. Let's go see the evidence. What, are you afraid of tigers?
It's very brave of you to snatch a camera from right under the tiger's nose! I don't know who it belongs to, but there's film in it. I'll go develop the film. Maybe the pictures will give us some clues.
-
tasty treat
Inspector
The fact that he was wearing a stylish bow tie means he must have intended to enjoy the zoo. There might be a packet of animal treats nearby.
Okay, you found an animal snack: ......... This is not for carnivores. My guess is that the bow tie owner was on his way to see the herbivores and something happened and he changed his plans.
-
Stylish accessories
Inspector
Let's find out who dumped the bow tie near the tiger's cage and for what purpose. There may be no good reason, but it is too early to tell. First, let's examine the bow tie.
The owner of this bow tie must be a fashionable person. It is made of fine fabric, and the colors are trendy. But there are bloody spots on it. Let's check the area around .......
-
They are all rare.
Inspector
Are you heading to the zoo? I'll accompany you. I checked the records and it seems that the zoo had some unusual animals before the "distortion". Let's find out what has changed.
Frankly, I was surprised at the variety of animals in the zoo. No wonder so many residents visit. There is definitely something to see here. But are they all following safety rules?
-
Gathering Smoke
Detective
Wait, wait, wait! I see something in the smoke from Alex's note. It's a werewolf. No, it's not. Well, we'll find out soon enough. We need to get the smoke into some kind of container. A flask with a glass stopper would be best. Find me one ASAP.
It's a nice flask. And new enough. The important thing is that it closes tightly. Let's hurry up, collect this smoke in the flask and plug it up. Take it to Martha, she will analyze the smoke and write down her conclusions.
-
Magic Inspection
Detective
I think it would be a good idea to check Alex's notes in the chemistry lab. But where in this city? Can't we get an essence potion from one of the wizards? And don't forget the instructions. It would save me from having to mess it up with magic.
Whoa, an essence potion! Why don't we just put it on the memo and wait? Is this the instruction manual? Now we know where this paper came from. All right! Let's sit back and watch the smoke rise from the note up close. After all these hours, wow... some kind of werewolf.
-
Photocopying of evidence
Detective
I didn't think there was anything particularly suspicious about this note. It just smells like garbage... but there is something more than what it says... and I need a large copy of this to find out what it is. I'm glad we're on the same page. Now go find the camera.
Hou! That's a great camera! Help me make a copy. You're so good at this. I think the photocopy is better than the photocopy! I once caught a stockbroker forging, and the photocopy was better quality than the original.
-
examine carefully
Detective
I think we should examine Alex's notes in detail. For example, take a closer look with a magnifying glass like a watchmaker or miniaturist would do...well, I bet we'll find something eventually.
This is it! That's the kind of magnifying glass I was just talking about. Let's take a closer look at Alex's notes with this thing.
-
lower the ramp
Martha
Once I open the portal to the spirit world and the sound of the whistle plays, the captain will appear in the world of the living on the wandering Dutchman. We will need a way to get him down to land. Find the ship's ramp.
A ramp with a decorated railing? Oh well. Now the captain's ghost can get off the boat quickly.
-
The Call from the Shore
Martha
I need to find the whistle blower's magic whistle to call the captain and bring him back to shore.
Hundreds of years have passed, and yet this flute hasn't aged at all. It's the same as when I saw it before.
-
Feast for the Dolphins
Martha
I'll ask my sea deliverer, the dolphin, to help out in case the treasure chest sinks. But we have to give them something good to eat, too. Catch me some fish. That's their favorite food.
I think one bucket of fish is plenty. If I eat too much, I lose the will to work.
-
Rewarding the Albatross
Martha
What is this gift that the captain had? A treasure chest full of gifts? If so, it might not have sunk, but is floating on the sea. Let's look for it. I'll ask an albatross flying over the sea to look for it. If they find it, they will bring it to us. But first, we need to give them plenty of food. Find the golden ears of wheat.
Do you think albatrosses eat wheat in its husk, as it is in this ear? Do you think they peck at this husk? They are not chickens. Grind the ear of wheat into flour.
-
Talking to the missing man.
Martha
I've already thought about that issue. Apparently the captain's stars didn't line up right and he's back to being a ghost. We had a hand in it. I'll go talk to him. I need your help. Find an old pair of scissors, cut the red ribbon with them, and bring them both to me.
Then bring me the logbook of the Wandering Dutchman from your stash. What a surprise. I know you've read it. Open it to the appropriate page, tuck the scissors in, close the logbook, tie it with a red ribbon, and wait. When I say the incantation, the ghost of the captain will appear.
-
Preserve the evidence
Detective
Alex's notes are badly torn and will likely fall apart in my hands before I can begin the investigation. We need to reinforce this first. A flaskful of egei fixative might help. Can you find it for me?
Here it is. A couple of drops of fixative and this note will no longer turn to dust. Unfortunately, checking for fingerprints will be futile. Not after all this touching.
-
Last Chance
Martha
I still haven't found the oldest book of Remegeton, "Ars Notoria." This book is independent of the other four. It was not included in the Lemegeton because of disagreements among the schools of magic. The cover of the book is said to be made of copper and decorated with peacock stones.
I found the fifth book of Remegeton, Ars Notoria. It's surrounded by protective magic, but I wouldn't be surprised to see it. It means that it contains the ancient names of angels and demons, as well as summoning spells to beg for their help.
-
The search never ends.
Huntress
The last amulet is an amulet of strength, imbued with the power of the wanderer. The tireless nature of the eternal wanderer, who tirelessly searches for precious artifacts, will help you in your search.
You found a good luck charm for your fitness! I knew you could do it.
-
Without emotion, there is no fear.
Huntress
Mummies are diabolical, emotionless monsters. Their courage is useful for inventors. Look for the amulet of courage.
Yes, this is the amulet of courage. Courage is essential for a discoverer. And this amulet will make sure you have it.
-
Peek into the soul
Huntress
The mental pressure from our enemies just keeps increasing. It seems that some of them really don't want us to collect the Book of Remegeton. Still, we have to keep working on this. Let's find the next Book of Ars Alamadell.
You have found the Ars Alamadell! This book is meant to summon an angel who is said to reside in one of the four ecliptic worlds. But there's something disgusting about it... the blue circle on the cover of this worn leather cover looks like a presentiment. It's like they're looking into my mind.
-
Blessings of Longevity
Detective
I don't know why Hanako is sad, buddy. She must not be feeling well. Maybe she needs some medicine from the Gods. Why don't you bring "Fukurokuju," the god of health? Let's find a statue of him and put him on the "Fukurokuju" ship!
You've found a good one! You have a wide forehead, a hood to cover it, a fan and a cane. You can give this statue to Hanako.
-
Sounds impressive
Alex
I can handle Hanako-san's melancholy with music. No doubt about it. You should bring the God of Art and Wisdom to my dear friend. The sight of Lord Benzaiten will bring a smile to her face as she remembers her favorite tune.
You found a statue of the goddess of music. She is an inspiration. When your heart is filled with creativity, there's no room for sorrow!
-
Fishing for Fortune
Lady
I would feel good when I feel like I'm having some luck. Look for the statue of "Ebisu"-sama holding the magic sea bream. Once "Ebisu"-sama returns to the magic boat, I'm sure Miz Hanako will be fine too.
You found it! It's Ebisu! Look at him, he is holding a sea bream. Tai is a fish that means good luck in Japan.
-
Otherworldly Forces
Huntress
Ghosts are inhabitants of another world. They have a better sense of the stars than we do. What you need is this superior intuition. To get it back, get an amulet of intuition.
You've got yourself an intuitive amulet. That's great! Now you can easily find the rest of the amulets.
-
Bag of Joy
Cardsharp
Wealth is what brings bliss! Let's look for a statue of "Daikokuten" with a wooden mallet and a magic bag of rice. That god will definitely put Hanako in a good mood. He'll even make her rich. That can't be a bad thing.
You're right, you've found a statue of the god of wealth and fortune! Look, this god has it all right, a bag of rice, a mallet, and a kind smile. This statue will blow away Hanako's melancholy!
-
The Devil in Power.
Isabelle
While reading Teurgia Goetia, I got a note about the next magic book. 'Read Ars Paulina and you will find the name of the angel who rules the day and the night, find this book. Have you seen what is happening in the streets? We are fighting the demons day and night, we are driving away the anomalies.
Have we obtained the third book of the Remegeton, Ars Paulina? We must hurry to the city while Martha reads the instructions for collecting the seals of the angels and preparing the spells to dispel the spirits. Otherwise, the demons won't stop!
-
Joy and happiness
Valerie
Now I know why Hanako-san is so sad. The blessed gods have disappeared from that sacred place. To bring her back to life, we have to put the gods on a boat, just like the legend says. Gods travel in those boats. First, let's find the jolly god, "Hotei".
You found a statue of "Hotei," the smiling god. This god is said to grant wishes. But to do so, you have to stroke the statue's belly 300 times.
-
Fog filled
Martha
The telepathic person was kidnapped and she showed Meridoc the images of all the people the fog was after. I wonder if she was able to grasp the relationship between the fog and the "distortions" that were created during the "distortion"? Let's find out!
I examined the fog and saw some sparks in it. These are images of thoughts filling the fog in the city. I don't think the fog controls these sparks, but they must have some effect on the fog.
-
missing person
Adeline Svensson
No doubt the woman who modeled for Meridoc had all the participants in the experiment painted for some reason. I wonder if she was one of the participants in the experiment? Let's look for information on telepathic abilities.
You found it! This is a page from an old magazine article about the experiment. It says that there was only one telepathic participant in the experiment and that she disappeared in the middle of the experiment.
-
Stuck Dreams
Martha
If the captive hypnotized Meridoc, we can look into the dream tree to learn her motives. The canopy of this tree can capture the content of dreams seen under hypnosis. Help us find out.
My dream tree is very old. My ancestors have tended this tree for generations. I can follow the souls that travel between different worlds by looking at the stars that hang from its branches.
-
Sleeping Prisoner
Detective
Who hypnotized Meridoc into having his portrait painted? Was it that "shadow" fiancée? She could have shown Meridoc the images of people attacked by the fog at the request of her fiancé. Let's look for evidence to confirm this.
I found a wedding napkin with a monogram and gold embroidery, but when I touched it, sharp thorny tendrils surrounded the napkin. Martha said this meant that her fiancé was a "prisoner".
-
A Peek into the Past.
Martha
Why would the fog be targeting old experiment participants who don't know each other? I'll use the Mirror Portal to find out. You can help.
The mirror's entrance is a vivid reflection of the past... the city hasn't changed Meridoc's paintings. He altered the people he painted himself and didn't even realize it. He must have been in a hypnotic trance.
-
Connection between strangers
Inspector
I went back and read Ms. Crawley's novel again to find out the connection between the victims of the fog attack, but there was nothing in the novel. There may be a connection in the real world, though. Let's interview the neighbors and check the victims' belongings as well.
Thank God you found the victim's belongings. They all came to town from different eras and did not know each other. But why did Meridoc paint them?
-
Beyond Distortion.
Martha
I don't think Meridoc was working with the "shadow". Maybe the city chose him as their guide. Let's use a crystal ball to look into the past where the "distortion" occurred.
I looked at the past, back when the town was just being built, when it was "distorted." I knew that Meridoc was indeed a guide. But it wasn't the city that affected his consciousness.
-
Elderberry Green
Adeline Svensson
I examined the playing cards that emerged from the fog and noticed that the shade of green used was different from what the artists in town usually use. I need to find out what this paint is made of. I think that would explain everything.
Thanks for looking into green paint. I see this is made from the leaves of the Elderberry plant. The artists in town haven't used this paint since they brought in paint made from Chinese medicinal herbs.
-
Main Motive
Inspector
Indeed, it seems like a conspiracy theory to create a trope. But the "shadow" never showed any interest in the memories of the fog victims. He always took his victims' talents. Let's look again at old cases.
I checked all the old cases involving "shadows." Each time, the shadow has taken the victim's talents. Additionally, if Trump had anything to do with the shadow, Martha would have noticed it right away.
-
work of speculation
Detective
Maybe the fiancée never existed in the first place? If Darkmood and "Shadow" were buddies, wouldn't Trump just be a trap? This is sort of a list of victims, but it's a picture. Let's check my theory!
Thanks for the help, buddy! We built a hypothesis from the facts and my guesses. But according to Dip, this hypothesis is nothing more than a card tower because it doesn't take into account something important.
-
Special Techniques
Adeline Svensson
If we're going to find out who ordered the tragic portrait, we need to find the portrait itself. Among the unfinished masterpieces in town is a portrait of a woman with a bow. Let's take a look.
This portrait, "Woman with Bow," is painted with paint mixed with life energy that gradually evaporates. The unfinished nature of this portrait is due to artistic skill.
-
Portrait of a Ghost
Adeline Svensson
There is also an unfinished fresco. It is a portrait hanging on the wall of a vacant mansion. Perhaps the person who ordered the portrait we are looking for lived in the house. Let's check it out.
I didn't know the ghost of the woman in the portrait I found was still living in the mansion. She did not know about Meridoc. The portrait hanging on the mansion's wall had been painted by her nephew.
-
Odd postcards
Adeline Svensson
Earlier, a postcard caught my eye with a portrait of a woman with two heads. Perhaps it was that portrait that Meridoc was unable to complete. Let's look for it.
So you found a postcard of a two-headed woman. From the looks of it, it seems the artist couldn't decide on the posture of the model and left both angles.
-
Portrait of a friend
Adeline Svensson
Most of the paintings that have been done in the city so far are in my mind. The fact that it's a portrait of a young woman, and that it was unfinished, narrows down the scope. I'm sure there's a semi-precise painting here... but maybe you can help me look for it.
You found an unfinished definition painting inside a gold pendant. Let's see who is depicted. Well... this doesn't look like Meridoc's work... take a closer look. This is Roxy, a friend of the card fraudster.
-
unreasonable request
Adeline Svensson
Go through the letters that Darkmood's mother wrote to her co-workers together. Perhaps one of the letters will tell you where her son was headed and for what reason.
After going through hundreds of letters, I finally found the information I needed! Meridoc went to a childhood friend who asked me to paint a portrait of her fiancé on his deathbed.
-
wolf's strength
Huntress
The werewolf can share his power with you. It's essential for the discoverer. Find the amulet of power.
That amulet of power with the werewolf's fangs in it... that was a tough one to get. But now you must have the strength to get the rest of the amulets.
-
Means of Negotiation
Martha
It's great that we were able to give the river people a sunshine charm, but how can we make sure it's working properly? And I'd like to know more about the river towns...is there a more convenient means of communication than stones and shells? Yes, I know! Can I get my old toy fixed?
Thanks for fixing my crab mechanical toy made from an old clock. Now, let's cast a spell and create a messenger that can travel between the water and the land! With the crab messenger, you should be able to communicate with the inhabitants of the river.
-
Forgiveness Wishes
Detective
I don't understand. A talented portraitist can't complete one portrait and postpones his wedding because of it? Why not simply get married and then finish the painting? I wonder how he explained that to F.B.? Let's find out.
Buddy, what is it? A box full of secrets? What, a letter that's been ripped to shreds? Surely this is the letter that Meridoc sent to F.B. Let's put the pieces of paper together!
-
The Injured Bride
Adeline Svensson
It seems that Meridoc's classmate was in love with his fiancée, a woman named FB. I wonder who she is? The bride must have been trying to find out where her groom went. Let's look for clues in her initials.
You found a medallion with F.B.'s initials on it! This is definitely the pendant of the Meridoc bride, but why is there a wedding ring inside? Apparently, the wedding never took place. Hmmm...could this be related to the same scandal?
-
Notes of the Envious
Detective
I checked and there is no one in town with the last name Darkmood. Where did he go? He must have had friends at the academy. Maybe we can track down Meridoc through the records of the other students.
Well found! This diary contains a portrait of the missing Meridoc. Oops, and there are some terrible things written in it. Apparently, the author of this diary was quite jealous of Darkmood.
-
The Magic of the City
Detective
I feel that fog playing cards can be made with the magic of the city. Fog often arouses all sorts of curiosities. What if playing cards are one of them? Let's find out!
We found a lot of playing cards in the city artifacts, but they were completely different from the ones the fog victim had. All I can say for sure is that the city had nothing to do with this incident!
-
new species of plants
Valerie
The river emperor told Martha that the river people could only eat fish and algae! But now they should be able to use the sunlight to grow plants above ground. Let's give them a tomato shrub to try. They sell them in whole potted plants in town.
Thank you! I couldn't have delivered those bowls of tomatoes to River City by myself. It was a good idea to deliver them with a diving suit over my head! Now the river people will be able to grow vegetables and make nutritious salads. Glad to hear it!
-
bartering
Martha
The river emperor asked for more sunlight. He says that the river people are living a very inconvenient life because very little sunlight reaches the water. Since the weather is just right today, I'll present them with an amulet to trap the sunlight! Can I ask for your help?
Thank you for helping to trap the sunshine in our river city amulet. The amulet is small, but the light and heat captured here will last for a year! And when it runs out, we can just store the sunlight again. Now, let's quickly attach the stone to the amulet and deliver it to the emperor at the bottom of the river.
-
Message from the bottom of the river
Valerie
Martha was able to conjure up a vision of a river city and communicate with the emperor there. Being separated by a body of water made it difficult to establish a firm spiritual connection, but the emperor promised to send a message to the earth. Let's look for it!
Thanks for finding my message! I was expecting a paper letter to arrive, but it would get wet. It's impossible to write with ink underwater. Oh, you've already finished deciphering it? Martha, you are a genius! The emperor is offering to trade our artifact for the treasure? So we are coveting each other's artifacts!
-
prophetic dream
Martha
In order to communicate with the emperor in the river city, I need to recall the vision I had last night. That was definitely not a dream... so I'm going to find out where the emperor lives and call on him. Can you help me?
Thanks to your inner strength, I've been able to conjure up the vision again. Let's quickly look at the river city. This big building must be the emperor's house. And he's just outside on the terrace. He is waving at us! He can see us, too!
-
Family Portraits
Bao
We had only one guest, but the acrobatic performance was a great success. Yui, too, was very pleased! Mei also has a big smile on her face! Let's capture this moment in a family portrait! Can you help me with the artifact? I'm not very good at painting...
You have created a lovely portrait. The sisters look happy together. I hope there will be many more moments like this in the future! It was great to see them dancing in their lion dance costumes. Must have been hot inside, huh?
-
prayer for success
Mei
I'm ready for the acrobatic performance I'm going to present to Yui. All that's left is to decorate the auditorium. It would be nice to have an amulet made of fragrant herbs! Not only will the amulet make a nice decoration, but it will also drive away evil spirits, so the performance will go without a hitch. Help hang the amulets!
Thanks for helping me hang the amulet. I love the pleasant sound of the bell and the summery scent of the medicinal herbs... I think it's time to call Yui. But I have to be careful not to look suspicious! Here they come...
-
Vibrant colors
Bao
Chinese acrobatic troupe performances are as beautiful as a magical ritual. If we could make the performers look even more spectacular with special makeup, Yui would not be able to take her eyes off the stage. But to do that, you need red plant dye. Please help me find the flowers to use as ingredients!
Thank you for finding these lovely red roses! The red makeup for the stage will be outstanding! Let's have Martha magically dry them, powder them and put them in a box. Then you will have a beautiful makeup. I hope Yui will be pleased.
-
moving picture (i.e. a movie)
Inspector
An idea. What if we think that the fog trump is not actually a trump? I have heard that boggarts collect things and sometimes change their appearance to scare people. Help me find out for sure.
It took a lot of work, but you managed to find a boggart playing card in a poker tournament! But the truth is, the cards came from the sleeves of a card cheater and had nothing to do with the fog attack. Let's continue the investigation!
-
Mai spins a tale
Mei
We want Yui to be moved a lot, so we should also perform a song and a dance performance using a fan. But we have limited time to prepare, and I don't think I'll be able to memorize the lyrics in time... Oh yes! How about putting a memo with the lyrics written on it in an inconspicuous place on the fan? Can I ask for your help?
Thanks for helping me put the notes with the lyrics on the fan! Now I don't have to worry about forgetting the lyrics during the performance. I hope Yui likes it!
-
Master of Disguise
Bao
Next, let's make lion dance costumes! Because I want Yui to see an authentic acrobatic performance. It will be fun, I'm sure! I have the cloth and masks ready, but I can't make it by myself, so please help me!
You have made a wonderful lion dance costume! It looks like something a zakka troupe would use, and it's fun just to look at it. I'm sure Yui would be thrilled to see us wearing these.

dexterous dexterity
Mei
If there is such a thing as acrobatic performances, it is acrobatics. I wish I could show this to Yui. Let's use glass cups to show how dexterous they are. And, since this is an art form, we should also add some decorations. If you want, you can help me.
You did a beautiful job decorating the cups! It's decorated with beaded strings and on a gold tray, but it looks like it could actually be used by a juggling troupe. I think I'll do a little acrobatic trick to try it out. Oops! I almost dropped it. I need to practice more.

Master of the Race
Martha
The race was a great success! Even the dragon on the river, the symbol of the competition, watched over us and pushed us all the way to the finish line. It would have been us who would have won anyway. We won the dragon's cup! Can you help me hold it up high so everyone can see it? I need the artifact to do it, but...
That dragon championship cup is so heavy! I'm so honored to be the first winner of the first dragon boat race ever held in the city. But it was the river dragons that made it possible for us to win, so let's share the victory with the runner-up team.

Amulet of Fortune
Martha
I also need the goddess of fortune medallion for the ritual. But where can I get it? I'm sure merchants and smugglers have them.
I hope the medallion is affordable and you haven't promised anything to the merchant on my behalf?
-
Coins of Joy
Martha
I Ching Divination Coin - I need a coin that symbolizes joy and happiness in China. Bring me a real one, it should have a square hole in the middle!
Thread all the coins through the red ribbon. Come on, help me!

final preparations
Detective
To finish off the dragon boat, let's put a dragon head on the bow. I made it all night long using paper mache! What...? This material loses its shape when it gets wet? I didn't even think of that... I need to make a wooden bow statue as soon as possible. Can you give me a hand?
We've got a great dragon head! Now just attach this to the bow and we'll be ready to sail. Oh, how beautiful! I can't wait to start racing. Are you ready, everyone? All right, let's get started!
-
The Power of Unity
Martha
One more breath and we'll be ready to race! We'll need some special drums. I want the rowers to row to the rhythm. We need the rowers to row to the rhythm to keep the boat moving forward. Can you help me find a drum that could fulfill this role? I have already thought of ways to improve it.
Thanks for choosing these wonderful drums! I also put some magic on it, so now our rowers will be able to keep up the tempo of our boat! By the way, I'm looking for someone to play the drums, would you like to give it a try? If you prefer to row, I can play...
-
Improved operability
Detective
To win the race, you've got to pay attention to the details. According to a guidebook on shipbuilding, you need a rudder to steer your boat. Then it occurred to me...don't fish swim by skillfully manipulating their tails? So I want to build a rudder in the shape of a fish's tail. Can you help me with that?
Thanks to my partner, we have a great rudder! With the rudder shaped like a fish tail, we were able to improve the maneuverability of the boat. Now we would be the first to reach our goal, unhindered by the current. But we had to enlist the magical powers of Martha to bring this rudder to life...
-
wind helper
Detective
A racing dragon boat doesn't need sails, but with the wind on our side, we could reach the finish line much faster. So Martha came up with a way to summon the wind. The wind, in the form of a moth, has come to our aid. Now all we had to do was tame the wind moth. Grab the rope and lend us your strength!
You're right, buddy, you can handle anything! Now our boat will slide through the water like a hawk! This moth looks like it has no weight, but it's as strong as the wind. Well, it's the wind itself to begin with.
-
The key to durability
Martha
Let's build the fastest dragon boat for the competition. But to do that, we need to use the best tools. Let's take an ordinary kanna and build a hull by casting a magic spell. I have the kanas ready here, so help me cast the magic!
See, Kana has changed, right? It's proof of its universal and absolute power. Everything that touches it becomes perfect. But it's going to take some more heavy lifting to make it happen. That's where I need your help, Detective.

pulp fiction
Huntress
Martha has deciphered the spell you found in Goetia. This will help us control the monsters. The second book of Remegeton is called Tellurgia Goetia. It describes a spirit of air that is both good and evil at the same time. This should help you understand the anomaly. Can you go find the second book for me?
I'm glad you found the second book of Remegeton too. The Tellurgia Goetia is written in Latin, but Isabelle can easily read it about the Spirit of the Air. That should help quell some of the angry anomalies.
-
Book I (in the Bible)
Martha
Recently, aggressive anomalies and monsters have become active in the city. Many have already taken their toll, but we should be able to deal with this by borrowing some knowledge from a magical book called Remegeton (aka The Little Key of Solomon). This book was divided into five books in ancient times, each hidden separately. First, find the first book of the Remegeton, "Goetia".
Well done! This Goetia describes 72 demons, and how to defeat them. Unfortunately, I can't read this book. It is written in an ancient language that has not yet been deciphered.

Response from the Ninth Heaven
Monk
The whole city gathered to celebrate Risshatsu. I meditated, and my inner eye caught the turtle fish in the nine heavens. I called out to the turtle fish and now await its response. Mmmm, it is as bright as a twinkling star falling near the pier. This is the news from the turtle fish! Let's look for it!
The fallen star became a golden saddle. Thank you for finding me. Turtle Fish says he will send her on her way, taking care that Li Ling does not fall off his back. The legend of the nine heavens came down from the heavens themselves!
-
musical investigation
Li Ling
I found a way to get the attention of the turtle fish. It's festival music! I can play the tambourine. When you invite guests to a festival, let's all dance and make happy sounds. I am sure the turtle fish will hear you! Can you find the tambourine?
Thank you for finding the tambourine! The hope of being able to return home feeds the bright rhythm. I hope you have a wonderful festival. I can't wait to see the turtle fish! I'll pack up the dolls I brought from the witch so that they won't be broken.
-
Festive Lights
Martha
I'm sure the turtle fish will enjoy the festival and send Li Ling back home. But will the turtle fish recognize this place? If we decorate the pier and surrounding trees with lanterns, it will be as bright as daylight. It's not easy to do it alone, so please help me!
You hung so many lanterns! I instantly felt like I was at a festival. It's like you're really holding a festival. Why don't we invite everyone in town?
-
Shadow of Summer
Li Ling
If you are going to hold a turtle fish festival, think about the entertainment. In my town, we always had shadow puppets at the festival. It's very interesting! With so many gifts on the boat, there must be some fabric. Let's make a shadow puppet curtain!
You have created a beautiful shadow puppet curtain! With this curtain, you can read many exciting stories to your children. I am sure the Turtle Fish will love it. Can you convince the Turtle Fish to send me home?
-
Festival atmosphere
Monk
The turtle fish can bring back Li Ling, but the problem is how to call her. Today is the first day of summer, which means that people can attune themselves to a higher power. Let's host a festival and invite the turtle fish. We'll prepare a meal. Gather the fruits for the cake!
You have gathered some wonderful fruits. This would make a delicious cake. This would also allow the fragrance to reach the turtle fish in Kutian. This scent brings back happy memories...the scent of summer.

Embodiment of Evil
Martha
See that creepy kite? It's flying close, but it's not tethered to a string! I think that kite is the Lu Demon himself. Somehow, he's managed to locate Li Ling. Do you think she is invincible in that form? Use the artifact to shoot the kite down. Lend me the artifact. I won't let the witch hurt anyone anymore.
I used the artifact to enhance the power of the Four Heroes' blessings and was able to shoot the kite down! The kite ignited as it fell and burned up before it hit the ground. Now the Lu Monster can't hurt anyone any more. Look, the poisonous rain has stopped. Our city and the river city were protected!
-
solidarity
Monk
The great guardians fight against the Lu demons in the other world. But we too will fight for this city. We will combine the power of the Shirushi to stop this poisonous rain. Let us use the power of the Shirushi to make amulets to protect the city!
You have created a powerful blessing with the power of the four heroes! Nigayomogi and bells ward off evil. The bitter and fragrant aroma of nigayomogi reminds me of the day of Risshatsu. Just as we are doing now, everyone was praying together for the blessing of goodness.
-
Water Magic
Li Ling
Let's ask for the help of the water dragon who sent me here to defeat the witch. He has spoken to us, but is he prepared to fight against the Lu Yoku? O Lord of the River, please answer us! Let us look for his signs!
How lucky you are! I see you found the water dragon amulet! I knew he would join the fight. But we need to hurry before the witch regains her power. Otherwise, terrible things could happen to our families and our city...

Detective's Hypothesis
Detective
My gut feeling is that Foggy got the clue for the card directly from Crowley's novel. I'm not sure how many "fictional" incidents she has written about have actually happened. Hey buddy, why don't you confirm my hunch?
I read through the entire manuscript and even read it aloud. I even asked Martha to look at it, but there was not a single word in the novel that I could substantiate. This hypothesis is going in the trash.
-
He who destroys evil
Li Ling
Let us invoke a true warrior, a "demon sealer" to defeat the witch Lu Yoku. My father hung a talisman over my bed to prevent me from having nightmares as a child. When the demon seer comes, he will send you a sign. Let us look for him!
You found a demon-sealing, stalwart amulet! This was hanging on my bed... a great warrior responded to me! Legendary heroes will fight for us! Even witches will not win this battle!
-
The Power of the Four Dragons
Monk
Let us call upon the power of light to defeat the witch Lu Yokei. There is a legend that the Dragon Mother adopted four dragons to protect mankind. We need her power. If you answer our prayers, she will send us a sign of favor. Let's find her!
You did it! These dragon eggs are a symbol of the Dragon Mother. Once she found four eggs by the river and brought them back to her roost to warm them. The dragon cubs hatched from the eggs and became her sons. The Dragon Mother's compassion is unlimited. With her on her side, she will surely vanquish evil.
-
fire protection
Monk
We cannot defeat the witch from this place. Therefore, we will ask for the help of the great guardians. First, there is Shuyu, the god of fire and summer, the protector of mankind. We prayed to him. If he hears us, the sun will tell us. Let's find an incarnation of Shukuryu!
Praise be to the God of summer. This is his message. This is the real sun. Only smaller. Oops, this is just an image, so it's not hot... but there is hope in this light! One of the guardian pillars is on our side.
-
wolf in sheep's clothing
Li Ling
Let's find out who is pretending to be a co-creator! These are the ashes after burning the offering. Martha said we need to throw the ashes into the water, and there's something in the reflection... can you see it?
Thank God you peered into the darkness with me......you can see the cave. Lemon grass is hanging from the wall...the image through the eyes of the woman on the boat...someone calls out to her...this is the voice of the witch who sent me out to find the magic flower!
-
meaningless happiness
Li Ling
Now, the next thing needed to expose true evil is the gift of a bride. This is a sad tale of a woman about to be married who is dedicated to her co-creator. She had a "comb" given to her by her grandmother, which was found washed up on the shore by her children. Let's find the comb!
Thank you for finding my young bride's kushi. How sad...Risshatsu day is supposed to be a joyous holiday, but it has been overshadowed by sadness. I want to bring joy back to Risshatsu! Now, let the ritual begin!
-
dexterous fingers
Li Ling
The next thing needed to expose evil is something handmade... Among those who traveled to the co-workers was a seamstress with a toy. She took with her a toy that reminded her of the children of the city, so that evil would not touch the people. But alas...the river returned the toy. It must be around here somewhere. Can you help me find it?
You found a handmade toy! There is so much heartfelt warmth in these toys...God or no God, I have had enough of people dying at someone's whim!
-
Calm Power
Li Ling
In order to perform the ritual of memory, a female garment dedicated to the co-creator is needed. Two hundred years ago, the city sent a female swordsman to the god of destruction. The next morning, her hat was found on the riverbank. Let's find the hat!
It is indeed a hat for a female swordsman. You found it! You need protection from the sun and insects on the road, and this veil of light looks good on you. I can imagine how the brave face of the female swordsman who gave her life for the city would have looked in this hat. And this hat will now help you to perform the ritual!
