Taste of Orange
Isabelle
If you're looking for the cause of the mistress's ailment, you're looking in the wrong place. No one seriously thinks that Julie poisoned her. There is nothing poisonous or magical in this refreshing drink. The last thing the mistress drank was orangeade. That's what you're looking for.
Like all the drinks I've ever had, there's nothing poisonous or cursed about orangeade. It just tastes a little less good. Wait, I'm curious about something...
-
validation test
Inspector
The mistress would still not eat and would blame Juliette, saying that she had tried to poison her. But I couldn't find any poison in the drink Juliette brought. A confirmatory test is needed. Look for pumpkin juice.
There is nothing poisonous in the mistress's pumpkin juice. Let's take a sip. Don't worry! I don't feel any poison, but it tastes kind of... plastic. Actually, I don't like pumpkin.
-
Strong Taste
Mistress
Juliette must have been trying to slowly poison me with a strong tasting drink. A truly experienced poisoner...how dare she completely hide the bitterness of the poison. Find some grape juice and see for yourself.
Grape juice hides even the taste of arsenic! Take a sip and see for yourself. Keep the bottle away from me, oh...
-
Lively acidity
Juliette
I wish I didn't believe these lies! My landlady may have had some bad experiences with me, but she would never poison me! All her food was fresh, you know. Like that wonderful lemonade, for example. Can you find it for me?
This lemonade looks like it was made right now with fresh squeezed lemons. How could it be poisoned? But it was the same a few days ago. How is that possible?
-
Deep red drink
Detective
Did she tell you about Juliette trying to kill the mistress? Julie is not the kind of person who would do such a thing! But there is one fact that no one can deny. The mistress is indeed pale, almost too pale to eat. Let's find out why and clear Julie's name. You saw the mistress drinking a pomegranate drink. Maybe that's the reason? Find me the glass bottle that contained the fruit drink.
The city has been incredibly hot lately and the hostess wanted to refresh herself with a pomegranate drink. Did you see Julie bring the drink from the Italianate patio? That's interesting.
-
shadowy past
Mr. Black
What we have is the testimony of the well-to-do father that his daughter's poor fiancée is the culprit. Apparently, the story has changed! What evidence do we have to show if the theft really happened in the first place? The thieves' picking tools were found in the victim's yard, so help us examine them. This is going to be the tour de force that decides where the case goes!
Thanks for helping me inspect the picking tool! I inspected them under ultraviolet light and found no evidence that these have ever been used. Not a scratch on it. But then how could the picking tool and lamp have been at the crime scene? Perhaps someone must have planted them at the crime scene without paying attention to the details.
-
First Suspicion
Juliette
Soon we can start making the mistress's brooch. Look for the Buchner funnel. You'll need it when you have something to filter.
I'm starting to feel like I'm trying to make something more complicated than a brooch. But now that you've brought me the last item, we'll soon see what we can do with it.
-
food for thought
Juliette
I was in too much of a hurry to carry out my mistress's instructions. I tried to pour the molten metal into the brooch mold, but in my haste I touched the hot pot directly. I burned my fingers. Please find me a pot with a handle. It's the only way to avoid burns.
You are safe in this pot, dear friend! Now I don't have to worry about you getting hurt.
-
New Challenge
Juliette
The mistress's brooch will be very unique. It will be made of black gold, a sulfide alloy of silver, lead, and copper, ground to a powder if you believe in 15th century recipes. Look for "pestle and mortar," dear friend.
A pestle and mortar! Thank you, dear friend. The mistress will be pleased. Actually, what we are using is the technique of the ancient Italian jewelers.
-
Pu'er mature tea
Isabelle
The next tea I would like to add to my collection is the famous Pu'er Mature Tea. They use special tea leaves for fermentation and are like wine. It will be one to look out for.
Oops! This is not the "Red Flute" Pu'er green tea! The taste is deep and mellow with a hint of bitterness. And this nutty aftertaste... Oh, I'm so happy.
-
Pu'er Green Tea
Isabelle
First and foremost, the first tea in my tea collection is a Chinese pu'erh green tea. It comes from an old tree on the famous Pu'er Mountain in China. It is a noble tea served at official events and when inviting distinguished guests. I wish I could invite all kinds of people to my home and serve it to them.
Have you discovered Pu'er raw tea yet? I love its mellow aroma of dried fruits, apricot jam, and sweet raisins. And a hint of floral notes. It's a great tea, don't you think?
-
Inconsistent testimony
Mr. Black
I read the testimony of a man who was the victim of a theft. According to him, the thieves entered the yard through a passageway they dug under the fence and then entered the house. The oil lamp the man was using was found near the tunnel. We'll check out that lamp right away!
He was very helpful in accompanying me to inspect the lamp. There is absolutely no trace of dirt or soil on the lamp. This contradicts the victim's testimony. Wait a minute, this name! I recognize this name. He's the father of the defendant's fiancée, a wealthy resident!
-
Investment in the future
Kira Woodville
One of the pieces of evidence in the case of the lover in the example is the stolen money. It was found in a flower bed at his house. But he claims that this money was saved over the years by cutting back on his lifestyle. Find out which is correct! Find the wallet containing the coins.
You found a coin purse. It appears to be disguised as a decorated stone. The man may have tried to hide the money in a safe way, but that would have made him look suspicious and think it was stolen money. However, the wallet has moss growing on it, indicating that it had been placed in the flower bed for some time. In contrast, the theft was only recently!
-
small lie
Kira Woodville
The girlfriend claims an ironclad alibi, which I have confirmed, but an expensive watch was found in the defendant's pocket. Since it is one of the key pieces of evidence in the case, let's examine this watch. Like the amber in the wedding ring, there may be an obvious explanation for this. Let's find the watch!
So this is the watch. It looks expensive...but the dial opens easily. There is no clockwork inside. There is only a small dice hidden inside! I have seen a man entertain passersby with dice tricks. That is what he does. The clock itself is worth nothing!
-
Hungarian Originality
Inspector
On a mission, I once went to an exhibition of ceramic works in Budapest. There was a unique, historicist "Hungarian ink bottle" there. I thought it might be useful for Miss Peacock to write a letter to her father. Can you help me find it?
I see these ink bottles are made using a special Hungarian technique. I hope its uniqueness includes magic ink. You're writing a letter to another world.
-
bestowed upon the nobleman
Lady Peacock
I am glad you helped me generate the magic ink! I will use that ink to write to my father and tell him that I was not kidnapped by the British. The ambassador of the Czar of Russia once showed me a wonderful bottle of ink. Please look for that one!
This ink bottle from St. Petersburg is a real work of art! I never thought about the magic in this ink...but I'll leave it to Isabelle.
-
stained glass
Mistress
That annoying girl with the feather. But it would be nice to have her write a letter to her father the king. I don't want war in the real world either. Now find me the famous Bohemian glass ink bottle. Hurry up!
Bohemian glass has a very special design. This ink has a magical power. Take it to Isabelle. Let her help you write her letters.
-
Modern stained glass
Lady
I am glad to hear that Mistress Peacock is going to stop the war between her native India and England. She will write a letter to her father, the King. Perhaps an art nouveau style "American ink bottle" will do the trick. Can you find it for me?
This ink bottle was stained glass by a famous American artist. His name became synonymous with modern style. Take this to Miss Peacock. It will be useful in writing a letter to your father.
-
Hygge Sound
Nicholas
The only way to make everyone in town forget their fears and regain the excitement of Christmas is to give them the heart of Hygge, the Scandinavian heritage that is my and Icy's home! Hygge is the spirit of calm comfort and enjoying every moment in life. Represent it with a simple but pleasant item of celebration. Find the "harp on the door."
The ball and strings on this harp are the doorbell when you open the door. It's this sound that dispels evil from your safe and warm home. These are the sounds of hygge. So is the crackling sound of a fireplace.
-
Luxury ship
Lady Peacock
Poseidon would love our gifts. They are all wonderful cups made of nautilus. Surely the Colonel's ship will be able to find a port in the city. So you should also find another cup in the shape of a ship.
This beautiful nautilus "ship's cup" reminds me of the Colonel's ship...please give this to Martha. Poseidon begs for mercy!
-
Liquid metal
Mistress
To make jewelry that will entice my customers, first of all, well... what? I have lots of gold. But I don't have anything to melt the gold. Bring me the Crucible.
You've found the Crucible already, that's pretty fast. I'm glad I hired you instead of Juliette. But she works for free. I'm not one to pass up a good deal.
-
Perfect assistant
Mistress
I don't need a jeweler. I don't need a jeweler, because I have the Chosen One so close by. He knows you can make the perfect brooch. Don't worry, I'll pay you handsomely for your services. Now go find your porcelain mug.
What does jewelry have to do with "porcelain mugs"? How do I know that? You think for yourself. Now, what was next on the list?
-
dragon boat (long 22-person canoe used for racing)
Mei
I know how to appease the wrath of the gods. If Mistress Peacock, with Martha's help, can reconcile the Colonel and the Sea God, the young Colonel will be able to go home. Find a cup in the shape of a dragon and offer it to the gods.
An unknown master has created this dragon-shaped cup from the shell of a precious nautilus. I hope this will please Poseidon. My dragon god loves such gifts.
-
Venice's Secrets
Juliette
We all want to write letters to the human world. We want to send messages to our families. But Miss Peacock's purpose is far more important, dear friend. One letter from her could stop a war back home. But to write it, you need ink in a special, famous ink bottle... how about a Venetian one? Could you help me find that ink bottle?
There was this wonderful Murano glass ink bottle! This magic ink would be useful for Miss Peacock to write a letter to her father.
-
For the Youth
Valerie
There are probably some children among the lost settlers of Roanoke. A warm cradle would be helpful for the little ones. I saw one at the town festival. It's worth looking for.
How cute! This warm cradle looks really comfy and I wish I could be in it! This should keep the Roanoke settlers warm and cozy.
-
Models of Planetary Motions
Detective
Hey buddy, check it out. The astronomer's diary mentions his last collection. It's called "Johannes Kepler's Space Cup." Let's find it. With that, we should be able to find our missing traveler, the astronomer.
Nice work, buddy. You found Kepler's cup. Look, it says "planetary motion in geocentricity." This model must be the key to finding the astronomer.
-
warm hand
Juliette
I can't go outside without a muff because I need to protect the skin on my hands. You'll have to look for that. It should help remove the curse of the Roanoke settlers.
No matter how frugal the first settlers' attire was, they knew a thing or two about muff fashion. The women of Roanoke would have loved it!
-
nostalgia
Huntress
I hear you are collecting warm things for the Roanoke settlers. Then you need a patchwork quilt. It must be in town, so find it to break the curse.
This eclectic patchwork quilt should warm the hearts and bodies of the cursed settlers. It reminds me of the ones my mother made for me when I was a kid...
-
Practical Beauty
Lady Peacock
Light fabrics from my country won't keep the Roanoke settlers warm. Look for Indian blankets. They are colorful Indian patterns. That should keep them warm in this cold weather.
Oh, how practical. Of course, I'd prefer the lightweight silks of my hot homeland, but these blankets should keep the settlers of Mouth Anok warm.
-
A gift from the heart
Mr. Black
All we have to do is prove the innocence of the accused accused accused of breaking into a residence and stealing money and jewelry. He has no criminal record. Just one trivial theft. So this case does not seem to be his crime either. Let's examine the evidence. Bring me the valuables found in the man's possession.
So this is the ring. The man wanted to propose to his girlfriend, but he is not wealthy. So this ring was also woven from grass on the riverbank. The gemstone on the ring looks like topaz and is eye-catching, but you can see fine bubbles... this is finely cut amber.
-
Dry storage location
Kira Woodville
I found a handbook for clerks. According to it, the ink disappears when the surroundings change at this location. That's an anti-theft measure. The paper is a little damp these days because of the lack of sunlight in town. Find a heater to dry out the room!
You found a heater to absorb the strong sunlight that would have damaged the courtroom contraption, but now you don't need it. They can be switched to emit the light they absorb, which should warm the room and reduce humidity! From now on, paper should be stored in a humidity-free area.
-
warm up from the cold
Conductor
Some of the Roanoke settlers are wearing tattered ponchos. Just looking at those poor people makes me cold over here! A long time has passed since the Native Americans came to the aid of the settlers. Let's find some Indian ponchos!
The Indian ponchos look warm. With this, Martha will be able to remove the curse from the Roanoke settlers. We'll have to celebrate when that's done!
-
breath of fresh spring air
Bao
The wind spirit has not returned to the magical forest either. It is thought that it has become a stone mask like the other spirits, but I don't think it is hiding. The wind is something that is always moving. Look for places where people are afraid to set foot.
I found a mask that was transformed by the spirit of the wind. Touch it... can you feel it? It is a new spring wind.
-
Swan Princess
Lady
Martha is preparing a special ceremony for Miss Peacock. Poseidon to help the Colonel sail back to town. I saw a nice nautilus cup in the shape of a swan. I think that's what the princess needs. Will you help me find it?
What a beautiful nautilus cup, complete with a crowned noble bird. I think that Indian princess, Mistress Peacock, is as lovely as the swan princess in fairy tales. I hope Martha's rituals help her...
-
telescope
Inspector
The astronomer notes that Galileo's lens in his collection is made of gemstones. Why don't we look for it? If we have it, we will surely be able to understand the path taken by the astronomer.
What you are holding in your hand is Galileo's lens itself. His revolutionary invention made the telescope's capabilities powerful. This lens has been preserved in perfect condition. No wonder astronomers cherished it.
-
Fixing the unfixable
Eli Montague
As it turns out, it's not that the document was stolen from the courtroom, it's that all the words on the document have disappeared. Fortunately, we have a way to fix it. I have a small typewriter that can recognize and accurately restore the words on paper. But it has not been used for a while and is out of control. Let's work together to catch it!
Catch the machine! I did it! This printing spider is very energetic. The restoration of the documents will be finished soon. These documents are very valuable, so we were more than happy to help!
-
In fact, right in front of you.
Eli Montague
I'm sure there are clues hidden in this blank stack of papers that lead to the missing document! It's an old piece of paper, with a tan mark and Keira's bookmark tucked in. Maybe the person who stole the document doesn't exist, and the ink just disappeared. If you have the lens of truth, you should be able to see it clearly!
Excellent. This lens brings up missing letters. It's used when someone splashed water on it and it's gone. I have seen something similar in an archive, and it is very valuable. See, I was right. The missing letters are coming up under the lens, you see! The documents weren't stolen!
-
small parts (e.g. of a story)
Kira Woodville
If someone stole a document, who and how do they get it back? Why did the thief leave a blank piece of paper? There seems to be no hidden message, but maybe we can figure out where it came from? Let's examine the page! Ah, here is the evidence! Help us get it back!
Thank you for finding the bookmark. This is mine. When I was going through the case files, I tucked in a bookmark made from a clothing tassel and a paper clip as a marker. Hmmm...these papers are very old and yet my bookmark was here. Perhaps the thieves are trying to confuse us?
-
Unlocking the Secrets
Eli Montague
The documents from the courtroom are gone, leaving only a pile of blank paper. The paper must be very old, as it shows signs of having been tanned. Perhaps the document was written in invisible ink, as was routinely done in courtrooms. Let's find the heater and find out!
Oh, there was an ink heater? I know that people in the courtroom used invisible ink to maintain secrecy. So heating it makes it visible. Now let's heat the paper...hmmm...it's still blank. That's strange.
-
Back to the way it was.
Abbot Paku
Themis became ill and laid down her balance and sword. But in ancient Greece, the goddess was depicted with a cornucopia, not a sword. It was the Romans who gave her the sword. Give her back her original possession. You may like it better. Now let's find a suitable fruit!
It must have been difficult to find this precious apple. It is a very elaborate paperweight, but surely it would be a good substitute for a cornucopia. Now, put the apple in Themis' hand. It should be much lighter than the sword. The statue's vibration has increased, but she still seems to be grieving.
-
feeling like traveling (travelling)
Vera
For the residents of the city, the statue of Themis is an important symbol of a fair trial. So we must restore her strength to support the sword and balance. As you can see, she needs her rest. Let's replace the scary blindfold she wears with a 3D mirror! Once she finds it, I'm sure she'll relax.
It's a nice 3D mirror. This is for examining the photographs attached to the case. I brought a photo from the courtroom archives that was evidence in a case that had a statute of limitations on it, and it shows the city. The statue means I can't go on vacation, but I can now look at the city!
-
green therapy
Abbot Paku
The Themis statue is probably suffering because of the large amount of radiation emitted from the courtroom equipment. To mitigate the effects of this radiation, try placing a plant nearby that absorbs radiation. That plant can grow around the building or even from the walls. If you get them, I will find a place to put them.
You brought the young shoots! Fortunately, there was a kettle in the courtroom. We nourished the young shoots with the ether of life, and you have created a real "hanging garden" as in the Semiramis myth! Not strictly a "garden"...but still, the greenery should be soothing to Themis.
-
Happy Goddess of Justice
Vera
I've examined the statue and it looks like there is metal fatigue. She's been under a lot of strain and the little scratches are piling up. She hasn't come back to life, she's deteriorated. I heard a sigh, then a creak. Find the energy stone! I can increase her endurance with it!
That's quite an energy stone. This is the stuff they use in sentencing devices. There was a beautiful box left over after the jury tea party, so put it in it and give it to Themis. She deserves the attention. Apparently, the statue's misfortunes show up in a special way...
-
Unusual Patients
Abbot Paku
I would like to find the cause of her illness, but how can I examine the statue? She does not breathe and has no pulse. However, if we can listen to the vibrations of the metal, we may be able to determine her general condition. Find something like a gavel. Strengthen my stethoscope and examine her with it.
He skillfully combined a small mallet and a stethoscope! With this you can hear even the slightest copper vibration. Carefully tap the statue...hmmm...you can hear a very low vibration sound. Some of my patients have similar symptoms. What this indicates...is that Themis is feeling unhappy.
-
Flight of Determination
Alford Stone
I would love to see the court's ruling enforced. Because then Arcane will not be able to hurt anyone any more. Let's use one of my precious pearl collections, the Elixir of Goodness. It is in a jar with an owl decoration. Please help me find it.
Yes, the good elixir is it. Legend has it that the elixir releases the soul from the body and allows it to move through the spirit world and back again with ease. But our goal is to send Arcane into a new vessel and free Kindy.
-
Reliable Design
Pawnbroker
To free Kindy from the arcane, a memory vessel that can hold an entire personality is created from a large memory crystal. Please watch carefully as we prepare the field generator.
Success! The field generator is stable and keeps the personality in place. We set the vessel to negative vibration. Now we can attract the killer's personality... if Arcane wants to leave Kindy's body. Do you have a better idea to convince him?
-
Firm grip
Pawnbroker
Who's there? Oh, I forgot for a moment that you were there. The memory crystals are trying to absorb my memories, you see. The crystal is needed to remove Arcane's personality, but I would like to keep my memory intact if possible. To do this, I will need protective gloves. Could you please find one for me?
I almost forgot how to make a memory vessel. I'm glad you found the protective gloves. It means that the memory crystals affect you all as well. The crystal is so powerful that it can even absorb my personality. Put on the gloves and continue working.
-
Delicate work
Pawnbroker
Memory crystals are tough. In order to create a vessel that fits a personality completely, a large piece must be cut out of the crystal. It is important not to damage it, so precise work and special tools are needed. Let's find those tools together.
You have found a tool. Using it, we cut off a piece of the memory crystal to create a vessel to house the personality. It was only a matter of time before Kindy was freed from Arcane, who had been using her inventions for dark purposes with Kindy's body.
-
Valuable materials
Pawnbroker
So let's put my knowledge to use for the sake of justice, shall we? Oh, and for the sake of tax exemptions. Memory extraction techniques are reliable, but I have never used them on a split personality. We need your help. Can you help me find the memory crystals?
Great sample! Did you know that memory crystals generate a kind of "seed"? This is the material from which memory vessels are made. However, it takes a larger piece of crystal to maintain the personality of the arcane.
-
dual personality
Alford Stone
I deal in antiques and legends. The fact that Kindy has never met her "friend" and doesn't know about the arcane that is so similar to her own reminds me of one thing. Please have your aura pyramid ready. I saw it somewhere in the courtroom. Could you please find it for me?
When you look at Kindy through this pyramid, you can see his aura. Just as I thought. Kindy has two auras, one of light and one of dark! This means that his body is inhabited by two personalities. And the dark aura is trying to absorb the light aura.
-
Sounds coming from the shell
Angelique
The dog mask may have been a weak clue, but it did help me find another clue. As I bent down to pick up the mask, something glowed in the fog. It is a snail-like device. It is in evidence, so look for it.
Upon examination of the metal snail, I discovered that this was used to preserve audio. The device is inscribed "A.K.". It has been tossed and damaged, but the audio is still present. Please listen to it.
-
fang
Angelique
My next objective was to see if this energy anomaly had anything to do with Kindy. At first I could not find anything in the fog, but then I stepped on a dog mask. I have submitted it as evidence and you can give it to us.
This mask looks like a muzzle. It allows dogs to breathe through the fog, like Violet station staff member's dog, Alligator. However, this mask is broken and must have been thrown away.
-
source of power
Angelique
I looked for information, but there was nothing special about the place I followed the map to, just a house with red windows. However, I found energy flowers in full bloom. I picked some of them but they were scattered. Can you help me pick them up?
These plants are adapted to the thin soil and get all the nutrients they need from the air by absorbing the vibrations of the crystals. The stronger the vibrations, the brighter the bloom. Judging from the brilliance of the energy flowers, they must have grown near strong vibrations.
-
Suspicious Place
Angelique
The Kindy case was very interesting to me. As you know, I was created by a puppeteer. Therefore, the fog is harmless to me. I decided to investigate from where Kindy started moving the fog towards the residential area, where I found a strange device. Please see.
My conclusion is that this is a 3D map of the city, with specific locations marked in the fog. I could not determine if this was Kindy's or someone else's. So I went to the marked locations to investigate.
-
wave motion
Violet
Are you convinced that Adam is not the killer? Sure, people say they saw him manipulating the fog. Perhaps he must have been at someone's beck and call. Show me the helmet...there's a suspicious part. Try removing that part with an artifact.
This is a wave emitter using deep crystals. It calms the wearer's mind and suppresses the will. Director Black used a helmet like this for interrogations, but it turned out that the vibrations were impairing his memory. Someone was trying to subdue Adam.
-
Cures for Melancholy
Adam Kinde
I never harmed anyone! All my inventions were for a good cause. I even made a helmet for myself to cure my depression. Bring it to me and I'll explain the design.
This is the helmet of coolness. This one is a piece of crystal. Did you know that different types of crystals have different vibrational properties? I chose the crystals to get rid of the depressing thoughts out of my head. This helmet is definitely not going to hurt anyone!
-
sleep medication
Adam Kinde
I went to the doctor. But that doesn't change the verdict, does it? I couldn't sleep well, so the doctor gave me some pills and I took them all. It didn't make me feel better, but it helped me sleep. Can you find an empty bottle and bring it to me?
Oh, yeah, there were pills in that bottle. See, I'm not lying. I haven't seen a doctor since then because I couldn't cure my depression. That's when I started getting notes from friends, and I started making progress on my inventions.
-
medical intervention
Violet
The mechanical judge will always acquit Adam. He is not a criminal, he is just an inventor who is not in good shape. What Adam needs is treatment and medicine, so the best thing for him is to enter a sanatorium. Read this doctor's note.
Were you convinced? The doctors diagnosed Kindy with fog-induced melancholy. This would partially explain his isolation and memory lapses. Furthermore, the doctor even assured me that he was not a danger to himself. He just needs "watching over.
-
sad (tragic, pathetic) memory
Adam Kinde
I swear I have done nothing wrong. Yes, my parents disappeared into the fog and I lived on my own. They were looking for my missing brother. The only thing I need to remember about my brother is an old toy. Can you bring it?
It was my brother who made these toys. My brother could make anything...usually scary things. But I loved him. Now I have no one... except my friends! He writes me notes. Too bad he only comes when I'm asleep.
-
survivor
Violet
Even you don't want an innocent person to be charged with a crime, do you? It is my duty to secure Adam Kindy's release. I need your help in gathering evidence. Let's start with the family crest.
The family's coat of arms on Adam's residence indicates that he is descended from one of the city's most prestigious families. My parents used to be close to the Kindy family. Adam is the last of his family to survive the fog raid.
-
Explosives Technology
Adam Kinde
When I heard that crystal disease was spreading to the plants in the city, I decided to build a food synthesizer that would turn crystals into food. My friend promised to finish it. All you have to do is find the synthesizer and see for yourselves.
Be careful! Sure it's a food synthesizer, but what is synthesized from the crystal is a type of explosive, not food. That's not the plan! The machine has new parts on it. Obviously added by our friend... why would he do that?
-
Inedible harvest
Kira Woodville
During a search of Kindy's residence, another machine similar to the collector's was seized. Upon closer examination, it was discovered that it was the cause of the disaster that had recently brought the Upper City one step closer to causing a famine. Yes, it is a plant killer! See for yourself.
It is an absolutely horrendous scheme to use machines to turn fruit into inedible crystals. We blamed this crystal disease on the gatherers, but it was Kindy and her accomplices who were trying to starve us to death.
-
short-haul flying
Rayden Storke
Along with the collectors, Kindy may have been involved in another unsolved case. One night, a strange plane crashed into town, destroying multiple buildings. Help us transport a piece of that device to the courthouse.
Surprisingly, Kindy recognized some of the crashed equipment. He calls it a "rocket." According to him, Kindy had built a prototype that could travel quickly between the Upper and Lower Cities, but while he was sleeping, his "friends" took it away.
-
Karakuri dolls that have escaped
Kira Woodville
The archives of the Sheriff's Department have records of several unsolved cases similar to this one preserved in their archives. An example is the case of a mechanical doll that destroys houses and trees until they break. Let's try to find that one made of tinplate.
Thank you for helping us find the vandals of the mechanical dolls. The collector also built a similar machine, but Kindy claimed that he built it to help residents carry heavy loads. He stated that the machine was never completed, so it did not bear the "A.K." inscription.
-
deceptive reflection
Kira Woodville
We have searched Kindy's residence and found evidence that his accomplice is a collector. If we can catch him, we may finally have a chance to get off the streets. Let's show this strange, illuminated mirror to the judge.
The judge will agree that this mirror makes the collector's portal look like a broken one. Kindy says he developed this mirror to contact people in the house who have been divided by the fog, but that could be a lie.
-
inscription of a craftsman's name
Kira Woodville
There is no name "Arcane" in the city records. The suspect claims he doesn't know the name and is not good about the licorice in his pocket. Also, a strange machine was found. Of course, the suspect does not remember what the machine does. Let's find out if the machine is dangerous.
We do not know what this machine was meant to do, but it left a craftsman's inscription with the letters "A" and "K". Perhaps the presiding judge of the mechanical device might accept this as evidence that Arcane is a suspect.
-
Luscious Suspicion
Alford Stone
I didn't mean to get in too deep, but I was worried that that mechanical judge would let the culprit go... someone who looked like the accused came to me for a rare artifact. He called himself "Mr. Arcane" and gave me some licorice. I understand that licorice candies were confiscated from the suspect?
The guest who visited me had licorice, as did the suspect. Candy is not exactly strong evidence, and "Arcane" is probably an alias. But I would like to cooperate with the investigation. Shouldn't I check the city records under the name "Arcane"?
-
Denial of obvious facts
Kira Woodville
The killer must be pretending amnesia. I will prove it. We have hard evidence that the culprit is guilty. It is the device used to incite the residents to fog. Would you like to see it?
The perpetrator states that he has no recollection of this device. But they think this is an unfinished prototype. Bullshit! We saw him use it. But now the device won't turn on. It must have malfunctioned, and that's why the killer gave up.

Judgment by scent
Pawnbroker
Seeing the suspect, I remembered that someone similar had visited me before. However, his voice and facial expression were different. The person was asking for the "Memory of the Five Wise Guardians". Could you please confirm if the suspect has the fragrant boutonniere?
Ah, this is the same boutonniere that the customer wore. That is the scent I remember. I refused to sell him the "Memory of the Guardians". When the customer left, he said he would surely regret it.

Night Accessories
Rayden Storke
We still do not know who the culprit is. He may be pretending amnesia to avoid being held accountable. According to eyewitnesses, the perpetrator of the fog was wearing a mask. Finding that mask would be helpful in the investigation.
Thank you for finding the killer's mask. We also got confirmation from the witness. But this is a night vision mask. In his statement, the suspect said he never goes out at night. He must be lying.

Themis Awakening
Alford Stone
It's ironic that the culprit manipulated the fog to destroy almost half the city, but accidentally activated the mechanized judge. He's been a defendant himself for quite some time now. Still, I wonder how the courtroom works. I can't wait to see it.
The courtroom appears to be ready for the mist-monger's hearing. A statue of the impartial Themis has been placed, and the defendant's seat looks sturdy despite its transparency. Take a look at the culprit. Let's put on a couple more amulets, just in case.

Reflections of Heaven
Helen
My father treasured a polished spherical mirror called "William Herschel's Reflector." The telescope in the Observatory was built with this tool. Find that reflector.
Be careful when handling this reflector, please. It's part of my father's collection. But I bet it will reveal some mysteries on my father's journey into the mist.

Persuasive Explanation
Detective
There was a big copper pot. Helen said that was her father's collection too. I wonder if they used to use that to look at the stars? Let's check it out.
Look, there's something carved on this bowl. Hmmm... this is a story about the Sultan's gold. But how does this help us find the astronomer? Let's read it.

Gold of the Seven Seas
Cardsharp
Perhaps Colonel Gallahard angered the sea god by trying to steal Poseidon's treasure? To appease the god, you must offer him gold! Find me the "Golden Cup." If the monster hasn't stolen it yet, it must be there.
Look at the graceful curves of this golden nautilus cup! If Poseidon will not accept it, I will gladly take it back.

Helpful Actions
Kira Woodville
We need to save the bank from the pranks of the hobgoblin. He lives here, so we can't kick him out. So, what about thinking of ways to use his talents? Since he can get into any tight space, let's ask him to help guard the bank. We will give him a security guard's hat. Would you please bring one from the security guard's office?
It's a nice hat with the symbol of the bank. The hobgoblin accepted it. In other words, he agreed to be an employee of Artifact Bank! With his talents, I am sure he will make a great security guard. It's wonderful! The banker got the one he wanted to get rid of!

warm reception
Rayden Storke
I have been trying to find out how the hobgoblin got into the bank and maybe he was always here. That is why there were foot warmers. Otherwise, he would not be living in a freezing vault. When it broke, the hobgoblin got angry and played a prank. Maybe he just wanted to warm up. Find some comfortable clothes in the bank.
These are nice slippers. I would love to have them. The banker is happy with the comforts of his office, but he would give up his slippers for good reason. You see, he has voluntarily moved to the back of the coin box. The godforsaken prankster has accepted our gift!

Frozen prankster
Kira Woodville
We need to plug the security hole in the bank that the hobgoblins used to break in and get rid of the culprits. Why does an energy meter emit a rattling <warning tone> near an artifact that looks like an old-fashioned foot warmer? Bring it here so we can look into it.
Thank you for delivering the foot warmer, it doesn't have an ID on it. It does not appear to be from the bank. Did the hobgoblin bring them? There is ice inside. It is not due to air conditioning as it is always cold here. How did the hobgoblin use this to break into the bank? I don't understand it at all.

searching for an answer
Kira Woodville
We need to find out how the hobgoblins got into the bank. The bank is fortress tight, but there must be a frayed spot somewhere in the energy defenses. Help us find the energy meter. With it, you can point to a weak spot that you think the killer used. The energy level should be low in that location.
So you have found an energy meter. So where are the weaknesses in the bank's security? Hmmm, security appears to be functioning normally, but there are strange reactions in the vault and a warning beep in that corner. Here was a "black hole"! This is how the hobgoblins got past the security!

boring joke
Rayden Storke
We need to understand how hobgoblins get into banks and how they behave. The banker has turned to the Security Bureau because his guards have been attacked. The hobgoblin seems to have set a trap for him, so let's examine it first. Look together for clues and traces that might explain the situation.
Thank you for your help in investigating the booby trap. First a bucket fell on top of the guard, startling him, then a sparrow grabbed him by the hair. The damage was minimal but unpleasant. Typical hobgoblin style. But this criminal runs around the bank like he owns the place and climbs up to the top of the door!

Delicate aroma
Juliette
We need to find the lost spirit of spring and return it to the magical forest. The spirit of spring is said to be able to fill plants that are not supposed to bloom with buds. It won't be easy to find them, but if the two of us work together, we'll be fine.
Do you know how I guessed that the mask I found was an enchanted flower spirit? I wiped it with my handkerchief and the mask was covered in delicate forget-me-nots!

green rustling of clothes
Valerie
Thanks to the spring spirits, the whole town looks like a spring forest. Look at these trees. They're covered in green leaves in no time at all! But... it looks suspiciously too fast. Maybe there's a leaf spirit hiding in the crown of the tree? Let's check it out.
You're right. We found the mask that the leaf genie was transforming into. The leaf genie is very good at doing this without anyone noticing and without leaving any trace. I'm glad you helped me.

calendar of sunshine
Helen
My father had a collection of possessions of famous astronomers. He used to work with those. If my father left a clue as to his current whereabouts, he must have hidden a code in there. With that collection, I can decipher the ciphers. One of the items in the collection is a metonic period gnomon from Athens. Find it.
This gnomon found is an ancient sundial. The metonic cycle was used to create the Greek lunar and solar calendars.

Mirror of the Soul

If you feel like there are many eyes staring at you in the dark of night, it's the work of the Hundred-Eyed Orchid. Find it, for the sake of science! I need a specimen like that for my greenhouse.
Even I can't relax when I'm stared at by this "Hyakume orchid". Anyway, I thank you! It's a nice addition to my collection.

Attracting Truth
Pawnbroker
We realized that what we were trying to get out of the ingot had no form. That is why none of the methods worked. This is not a material treasure, but something with very different properties. You need a magnet to summon it. This can attract the essence of things. Would you please help me find it?
You have found a magnet for the summons. Let's use it for ingot as soon as possible. If the essence does not reveal itself with this, you can keep this one as a souvenir. You stack the ingots and bring the magnet closer... it works... the golden light leaves the ingot and is attracted to the magnet. The light emitted by the ingot has faded.

Carnivorous Chrysanthemum" is a flower that looks normal but could easily eat you! Bring that one. But be careful! The professor will be furious if you go home empty-handed, but if you don't have your hands, you'll probably tip over.
Wow! These "carnivorous chrysanthemums" are really pretty...but I definitely don't want to smell them. These fangs are bigger than my ferret Edward's fangs!

Introverted aggression
Professor
You know what an experimental gardener wants so badly he can only dream about it? Mandrake roots! Mandrakes don't like to grow with other mandrakes. They make a horrible cry to tell their friends where they are. Why don't we look for this wonderful plant?
What a noisy cry! This mandrake is just a baby! Let's take it before the city's inhabitants' ears are muffled. Thank you. You're the best assistant I've ever had!

Martha
Mistress Peacock is probably right. Colonel Gallahard has angered Poseidon as much as he has the Odyssey. If so, he can't come back to town until he appeases that sea god. The symbol of the Sea God is the nautilus shell. Can you gather up some of those precious cups made from nautilus shells? I'll make an offering with it. First, find the cup of fertility.
The cup of fertility is made from the shell of a nautilus, the symbol of Poseidon. If we use it to appease the sea god, the colonel will not be disturbed in his boat ride back to Mistress Peacock.

Alford Stone
This magic ingot seems to be tougher than it looks. But if you want to extract the essence of the magic, melt the ingot down. The gold will be lost, but the magic will remain. There is a bottle of "dragon acid" in the bank. Let's get it and uncover the ingot's secret.
Did you get your hands on "dragon acid"? This rare item is made from dragon fruit that has been watered with concentrated mist. Its juice acts as a very powerful acid, but it only affects artifacts! Let's quickly spray it on...hmmm, nothing happens. Just a slight puff of smoke and the ingot is still intact.

Pawnbroker
We need to find out what this gold ingot originally was. Thieves like to melt whatever valuables they steal, but they do not always know the identity of the stolen goods. The artifact has been melted down, but its power still remains in the gold. To confirm this conjecture, why not search for the pliers of truth?
Wonderful, you have found the pliers of truth. These are the ones that can crush even diamonds. Let's take a quick look at the ingot. It may contain a talisman or a magic crystal. Hmmm, the pliers are red-hot, yet the ingot is not even scratched. It must be protected by powerful magic.

clairvoyance
Alford Stone
You say that the symbol is engraved on the ingot, but I don't think I've ever seen anything like this before! Have you noticed that this gold is uneven? You can see what looks like a stain, possibly a trace of the original artifact, let's find an x-ray lamp and look through it to see what's inside!
That's the x-ray lamp I was looking for. Thanks! Let's shine the light inside the ingot right away. What a surprise! What's happening? The lamp seemed to shine even brighter, but then it burst under pressure! The ingot is emitting powerful radiation. So it really was an artifact. I would like to examine it more closely, but unfortunately the lamp was broken.

Interesting Findings
Pawnbroker
The item in this box has been unjustly overlooked. This ingot was purchased by me with the condition that it was an unidentified artifact. This is because it was not examined for its nature. This is my guess, but it is probably stolen. The ingot should be in the amulet. Let's look for it together.
Have you found an ingot? Want to know what's unusual about it? These ingots are not standardized. You see here, it is not stamped with purity, but with a complex symbol. This is not just gold. This symbol contains a certain power inside. We have to find out what it is.

Final touches
Abbot Paku
Once the ghost has sealed the contract with his signature, the deed is complete. An ordinary quill pen in a disembodied hand won't do the trick, but a magic rune might. Fortunately, there are plenty of runes in the bank. I'll put some magic on the quill, so please help me!
This is a beautiful rune quill pen! I chose this rune because it gives me the strength and perseverance to solve problems. It will also be helpful in removing the burden of debt from the ghost. The signatures are now floating on the contract! Success! Now all that is left is for the banker to sign.

supernatural paperwork
Abbot Paku
Negotiate with the ghost to convince him that his debt has been paid. The bank has already written it off, but that did not reassure the debtor. So, he uses his promissory note and a widya needle. By having the ghost point out the words to me, I will be able to talk to him. I have already prepared the needle for you.
There we go. Thanks for helping me with the receipts. I never thought I'd see the day when the wija needle I used to play with at the Oasis would come in handy. The payment due date won't be a problem for him, and the ghost is ready to pay off his debt. Let's get on with the process!

Responsible borrowers
Mr. Jenkins
We found data on a ghost customer. He had a debt that he could not repay. Of course, that debt has been extinguished by the statute of limitations, but he still can't go to the other side because he is worried about it! Can you hear him roar?
You have found a coral abacus. This abacus can add up a lifetime of accomplishments and subtract from it all debts and unfulfilled commitments. Use it to tally up ghost debts and find a way to write them off. Let the debtor go free.

First warmth
Yui
You can feel the warmth emanating from the missing sun spirit. You cannot see it because it is moving at a great speed looking for a way back to the magic forest, but you can ask it to slow down. Try to catch them at the right moment when they change their appearance into masks.
It worked! So this is the mask that the spirit of the sun was disguised as. Huh? Too hot? Then give it to me. I can touch it.

young root
Lady Peacock
The spirits of spring, he said, hide in places governed by the magic of spring, with which the spirits are familiar. For example, the spirits of roots and shoots get their power from water. Perhaps they must be hiding near the first buds that emerge from the ground. Can you help me find them?
This mask is the transformed form of the spirit of roots and shoots! I'm amazed that you found it among so many sprouts.

Present to Icy.

I also have to get a present for Icy. I'm going to give her some cutlery in a nice pot holder. But don't tell her yet! Now I have to find a bigger pot holder!
Thanks for finding the perfect pot holders to put the gifts in! I'll let Icy know they were a gift from both of you.

flora and fauna
Martha
In nature, everything depends on each other. The flora can't exist without the fauna. More importantly, the spirit of the beast neutralizes the negative influence exerted on the flora.
You now have the power of the spirit of the beast. Now you have everything you need to restore the balance of nature.

Surprise hidden in a silk hat
Valerie
I'm thinking of giving my guide a real rabbit. I can just imagine the joy on his face when he sees the rabbit pop out of the silk hat! Can you help me get it ready?
What a fast rabbit! Thanks for helping me get it into the top hat. He's so cute! I'm sure he'll make a great companion for our guide.

Do you know what happens when you don't water a cactus for a long time? They turn into zombie cacti! We need that cactus in the professor's greenhouse. Let's help him out.
You brought a "zombie cactus." If you're going to put this in the professor's greenhouse, you'd better keep it away from the other plants. Why? The zombies will want to attack the others!
