Music of Life
Lady
I never thought true love like I read about in books would ever come into my life! But the gatekeeper and I had to prove to the spirits of spring that our feelings for each other were worth the miracle of Easter, so... look for the wonderful love symbol of Orpheus and Eurydice in the clues left in the vacant lot. I am sure the gatekeeper will follow me to Hades like a Greek musician!
So the snake and the lyra are symbols of the wonderful love between Orpheus and Eurydice! After the nymph died from a snake bite, Orpheus played a magical tune on the lyra to convince the reaper to release his beloved!
-
Easter Servants
Juliette
So Lady has been hiding from her family and her escape from an unwanted marriage. But now she is about to be happy. In order to prevent the spirits from returning her to the human world, the gatekeeper must guess why Lady is devoted to Easter. Can you help me find some Easter-related clues?
What a wonderful nest of chocolates. Oh! So as you prepare for Easter, Lady Rosemary was trying to fill the hole of losing her own family by taking care of others!
-
Golden Cage
Detective
I have faith in the gatekeeper. He would overcome the judgment of the nature spirits and prove himself worthy to be Lady's husband. The next question is Lady's terrible secret. She once leaked about a golden cage...it must have been symbolic, but let's find out.
I don't find the Lady's terrible secrets in this gilded mansion. Especially after seeing the news of her rebellious past. But...there was an old letter hidden in this house. This will all be revealed.
-
Speed is important.
Valerie
So the nature spirit asks the gatekeeper if he knows what the Lady really wants. I remember. I've seen her freeze up all over town, looking at the car with a funny look on her face. There must be a reason...find a clue related to the car!
This looks like the steering wheel of a vintage car. Judging by the ornamentation, the lady must have driven it, and don't you think it's a little scratched up? But what does that have to do with a lady's dream? Oh, I have an old newspaper article.
-
Family Legacy
Adeline Svensson
I have to answer all the questions about the Lady and help the gatekeeper to be judged by the nature spirits. So...what is the Lady's family famous for? I'm mobilizing all my wonderful memories! Lady once told me about her family's stained glass windows. Could you help me find it? Maybe the genie has brought it here as a hint.
This is an Art Nouveau stained glass window with an impressive inscription. Lady's family were aristocrats and were the first architects of the famous Belgian Art Nouveau period!
-
Chocolate Tips
Inspector
The spring gatekeeper must prove to the nature spirits that he knows the Lady well. If it ends in fiasco, the bride will be returned to the human world and their love story will end. The genie left hints in the vacant lot. The first question was where the Lady came from. The Lady often thoughtfully sipped the chocolate, so maybe there's a clue hidden in the chocolate. Can you find the chocolate?
I was confident that I could distinguish real Belgian chocolate from the rest! Landscape is a good thing. A trained eye can help us in our daily lives. Lady was born in Belgium.
-
Liquid Separation
Isabelle
The alchemical reaction is working. Just as it was in the formulation of the Philosopher's Stone. But in this process, we need to separate the liquids produced into different concentrations. Find a separating funnel.
A separating funnel can be used to separate the liquids that have been separated in the process so far into different containers.
-
A Humanitarian's Dream
Detective
It seems that the Lady must tell the nature spirit of the gatekeeper's secret desires. The gatekeeper often visits the marketplace of trolls. Could this have something to do with his desires? Find evidence linking the gatekeeper to the troll.
I thought I would find the gatekeeper's terrible secret: a little doll in the house of a toy troll! Perhaps it is the gatekeeper's dream to return the troll to human form?
-
Fears of the past
Isabelle
The Lady must prove her love for the gatekeeper to the nature spirits. To marry and not be separated. The new question is: "What is the gatekeeper afraid of?" This seems to be related to the spring magician's gift and the events of last year's Easter. Let's find out some clues.
It seems that the door of spring was a symbol of the gatekeeper's fear. He fears losing his magical power to bring spring to the world. Last Easter he made a bet and it was forgiven.
-
Legend of the Picts
Lady
How can I answer all the questions about the gatekeeper without making a mistake? The third question about the genie is the gatekeeper's favorite snack. The gatekeeper often sings Heather's honey ballad, is that a clue? Can you help me find it?
Real heather honey! I can truly feel that this is the gatekeeper's favorite treat. May the Spirit of Nature accept my answer.
-
Norwegian Sound
Alex
Since the gatekeeper had not confided in the lady, the lady had to guess against the genie to answer the question about the groom. Who was the gatekeeper in the human world, the genie asked. He has a perfect ear for music. Do you know what music has to do with Norway?
I've only seen horns like this in folk groups! Looks like a shepherd's horn. The gatekeeper was apparently a simple Norwegian shepherd before he became a spring attendant.
-
North Path
Martha
The lady must use all her wits to answer the nature spirit's five questions about the gatekeeper. There are clues hidden around the vacant lot. The first question is heard... "Where did the spring gatekeeper come from?" The lady is whispering something about the north. Look for the "north" item the gatekeeper used to have.
Ancient Scandinavian boots? In the aura you see pure highland pastures and cliffs that rise up to the seashore. So centuries ago gatekeepers were born where Norway is now.
-
Secrets are meant to be revealed.
Bartholomew
Mrs. Le Verrier's many good deeds have influenced much of the city's history. Even the priceless achievements that scientists have built up would not have been possible without her kindness! Look at the eyes of Horus in this glass case.
The all-seeing eye of Horus in front of me was a gift to the lady for her support of scientists working on unexplained matters. She supported the scientists who unraveled the mysteries because she valued truth and believed that sooner or later the truth must be revealed in everything.
-
Small escort
Bartholomew
I feel my anger lessen to sadness as I remember her good deeds. She was a person who did not tolerate violence, and it was to her credit that she had the shooting range at the festival converted into a shooting range. I wonder where the prize teddy bear was?
I took this teddy bear from the shooting range at the Navy festival and presented it to Mrs. How pleased she was that the shooting range had been transformed into a more peaceful and enjoyable shooting range for everyone! The lady even joked that day that this teddy bear would be the family's good luck charm.
-
Sincere words
Bartholomew
It wasn't just children and schools that the Baroness was helping out. She also lavished support on inventors and creators. At one point, she supported a talented craftsman who was building a printing technique. Can you help me find a key with a Sharp's mark on it? There's a story behind that.
Mrs. Huang supported the artisan, so the artisan asked Mrs. Huang what kind of typewriter she thought would be nice to have. The lady said how nice it would be to be able to print out sheet music. The craftsman gave her a key marked with a sharpie and began to design a typewriter. Unfortunately, the lady never got to see the finished gift.
-
Soul-soothing melodies
Martha
Remind yourself of the joyful days of your life. I'm sure Mrs. Baker would not have wanted any retribution. Do you remember the many charitable events that were held at the mansion? I believe the music stand from those days is still around here. Will you help me find it?
This is a music stand that has decorated charitable events at the mansion. Touching it, we can feel the images of those days. The melodies played by the lady healed the hearts of the aristocrats and spread compassion for others. Her presence is the light that shines in the darkness. Revenge only darkens the darkness, Mr. Bartholomew.
-
swan song
Juliette
Mr. Bartholomew, I understand your heartache and despair. But you must not seek retribution for your mistress's wrongdoings! Look at the possessions of the mistress that you have hidden away. How beautiful this crystal key-keeper is. May I see it?
There are some words carved on it. 'To Madame de Le Verrier. With gratitude from the Académie des Ballets!" Mrs. Le Verrier donated the building costs of the Academy. Mrs. Le Verrier must have helped you too, Mr. Bartholomew. I am sure Mrs. Bartholomew would be heartbroken at the thought of your review. She would not want you to lead such a life!
-
Secret Messenger
Martha
Bartholomew's recollection is that he was trying to foil some of her plans by reversing the bustle of the fat floor held by the mistress. Now a new image comes to mind. This time it is a memory of Bartholomew himself. I see a small iron fish. Can you try to find it?
This must be... a message box! Figurines like this were often used to convey secret messages. It looks like Bartholomew was trying to contact someone with it. The note is still inside! Let's read it.
-
Ears on the wall
Martha
The images of the butler's last days were gradually connecting and taking shape. The mistress's ball was in full swing, and Bartholomew was about to execute his plan, but he had a feeling that someone was watching him. Tied to this image is a silver rat, alive and in a box. Let's look for it!
It's that rat! Oh, no, catch it! That was close. Careful, this rat is not just a rodent. It's a small, nimble messenger that acts as a scout. Bartholomew's hunch wasn't wrong, and he was indeed being watched, but what the hell was he up to?
-
endless motion
Carlos Light
The time phenomenon can work to our advantage, but it also poses a terrible risk of...uh, how shall I put it...oh, I remember now. The risk of "time collapse." Did you set that pendulum in motion? I see. So it was swinging before we arrived? This is exactly what I was worried about. Let's take a closer look.
This pendulum seems to have been swinging for many years now, unable to stop its own motion. Some may be pleased to call this "perpetual motion," but my device shows the potential for a time vortex to occur here. This is a very dangerous phenomenon that swallows everything around it...
-
Capricious anomalies
Carlos Light
To investigate the time phenomenon, we need to look for objects that clearly show the passage of time. In other words, not a table or a chair, but something like a glue that dries up over time or an ongoing chemical reaction that is visible. Take this flask, for example.
Look at the inside of this flask. There is a chemical reaction going on at great speed...too bad I can't remember the name of it. Either way, it is a chemical reaction that should have been over long ago. If you get close to this flask, you see, my watch stops.
-
Horrible Restoration Work
Carlos Light
We need to gather as much evidence as possible that the time phenomenon occurred in Mr. Stone's store. I have been researching this phenomenon for quite some time. I have a hypothesis based on that...no, I will talk about that later. By the way, I saw a glue-repaired teacup around here. Please look for it with me!
As you say, the glue holding the broken teacups together appears to be relatively new. Very interesting. Mr. Stone says that the item has not been restored at all since Shirley's disappearance. This means that the teacup was restored a long time ago. I would like to analyze it in detail and I will bring some of the glue back with me.
-
What keeps burning
Carlos Light
It seems that a time phenomenon is occurring in Mr. Stone's store. I have witnessed the same phenomenon in the city and have even built a device to detect it. But sometimes you can tell at a glance what is happening without such a device. Look at the candles here.
Have you noticed? Not a drop of wax has dripped from this candle since we entered the store. It seems I was right after all. Time moves differently in this store. We must fix this situation as soon as possible. The time phenomenon is very dangerous.
-
Eternal Blossom
Carlos Light
The antique store has been shrouded in fog for a long time. And the owner of the store thinks it has been only a week since he was locked in... I have a pretty good idea as to why Mr. Stone's sense of time has gone awry. But I need evidence to substantiate my theory. First, let's find some indoor flowers!
I'm going to say something strange now, but don't be surprised. First of all, this flower...I can't remember the name, but take a good look at it. According to Mr. Stone, this flower was left by Shirley. And he says that it has not shown any sign of withering at all since then. This must be what is called "time phenomenon".
-
Sign of Assistant
Martha
So far, the images of Bartholomew's last days have been ominous. A ball to which the landlady has invited only the strangest of guests, a disturbing dessert... this needs to be exposed in its entirety. I see the next image. A ring with a skull on it. Go find it.
Truth be told, I was praying that this was never found. The fact that it was found means that Bartholomew has corroborated the evil plot of the mistress of which he complains. The possession of a ring with such a seal on it is proof that the sorcerer is dealing with the devil himself.
-
The Curse of the Song
Alford Stone
What we're looking for next is a very creepy item. Have you heard the legend about the "Canary of the Immortals?" It's a mechanical bird that's been chirping for a hundred years, and no one seems to know what kind of contraption it is. Can you help me find it?
I'm surprised to find a real immortal canary! Legend has it that his cry awakens the sleeping demon in every human being. That's why it's kept in a special soundproof box. Just in case.
-
The King's Curse
Alford Stone
A client is looking for the famous Croisus brooch. Cloisosus was the king of the Kingdom of Lydia, a historical figure who was the subject of many controversies. He is known to have amassed enormous wealth and owned many cursed items, the most dangerous of which is this brooch. Can you help me find it?
I'm impressed that you found this Croesus brooch. It is an accessory in the shape of a galloping horse, but it has been missing for a long time. It had been stolen from a museum in the past, but the thief, annoyed by the bad luck it brought, returned it a month later. The museum, however, refused to take it back...
-
The Writer's Curse
Alford Stone
Next up is an antique from Delhi. It is a stunningly beautiful purple gemstone, but it is said to bring misfortune to its owner... find it for me, will you? But you'd better not touch it with your bare hands!
The cursed Perpure that you found has a rather simple legend. A famous writer was given this gem by a secret admirer. After that, the writer could no longer produce excellent works. Yes, this beautiful gem had the power to rob people of their talent.
-
Terrible Desserts
Martha
I have a lot of blanks in my memory from before he passed away. I see only fragmented images. Intimidating guests, a table full of treats. What a horrific dessert! The cherry sauce looks like blood. Find me a similar dessert and I can flesh out the image.
I was lucky that my landlady recently had me make the same dessert again. But this is not at all pleasant. Among those who practice magic, these desserts are served at gatherings of magicians. The blood-red sauce is a symbol of the power of magic.
-
Rumor of a rustling sound
Bartholomew
It is somewhat uncomfortable to read my memories, but I will do whatever it takes to expose the sins of my mistress. Lady Martha told me to concentrate on the brightest images. I remember well the earrings in the shape of blue butterfly wings. Could you fetch them for me?
You found the earrings! Excellent! Yes, I remember them well. The mistress always wore these on important nights. Many of the servants saw these earrings move on their own. And it usually seemed to happen when someone somewhere was gossiping about the mistress.
-
Forgotten Sound
Bartholomew
Inside the box that Lady Martha has cleverly opened, there are many relics of the former Mr. and Mrs. Le Verrier. A music book, a shawl belonging to the lady... what's this? A rattle...? Why is there a rattle mixed in with the ladies' belongings? There were no babies in this mansion...hmmm. What is the meaning of this?
-
Tones of Sorrow
Bartholomew
The tragic climax of the mansion's tragedy caused everyone further grief. Like the lady, the baroness had also passed away from a strange illness. Akodeion was played at the funeral. The master had taken a liking to that instrument before his death, and it seems that the mistress never got around to it. It must still be around somewhere...
Touching this instrument reminds me of those tragic days. The Baron and the Lady were loved by many people, and their deaths brought great sadness to many people. Yet, everyone had heard rumors that the mistress did not shed a single tear or show even a hint of sadness at the Baron's funeral.
-
Fake coffee
Bartholomew
The mistress had begun to expand her influence even before she started living in the mansion. Once she actually came to live there, things got even worse. She continued to expose her love for the baroness without stopping for a minute and even made coffee with her own hands. Just touch the coffee mill. You'll see what I mean!
This mill is always ice cold. The baron was very fond of the coffee made by the mistress. The mistress would grind the coffee beans while muttering something to herself. Eventually, the baron only drank the coffee she made, and with each cup he seemed to become more and more lightheaded.
-
I'll take everything.
Martha
There are some suspicious things about the mistress's behavior just before she became Baron Le Verrier's wife. Especially around the fact that she wants her own luggage that was sent to her to be spread around the house. Her fan sent at that time should be somewhere in the bedroom, so look for it.
Did you find this fan near the mistress's bed? Well, no wonder. This is a very powerful magical artifact called a night fan. It is used by sorcerers to control others. They usually keep it close at hand.
-
soft lie
Bartholomew
The depth of darkness that the mistress has brought to this house is beyond words. For a long time, the Baron suffered from the grief of losing his wife, and he decided that he could no longer live surrounded by items that reminded him of her, so he decided to sell all of her belongings. Her favorite chair was one of them, and you can see it still there.
You are probably wondering why the rocking chair that the Baron decided to sell is still here. It's simple. At the auction house, a customer showed up who was interested in the chair, and yes, it was the proprietress. It was the proprietress. She then became the Baron's wife.
-
Blocked sunlight
Bartholomew
The dark days of the mansion began when that madam turned her attention to the baron. It is said that a year before that, the lady fell seriously ill and passed away, but this is a lie! The urn of the lady's urn is still kept here, you can see it.
The urn for the Baroness was ordered by the Baron's instructions. Baron Le Verrier loved Madame, but after only one year he forgot her and fell in love with the mistress of the house. The woman must have been involved in Madame's final days, and no doubt took advantage of the Baron's grief.
-
The Curse of Amun
Alford Stone
A prominent client has asked me to help him find an interesting amulet. I myself would love to add it to the store's collection, but alas, it is cursed. So, could you please help me find a ram amulet? Take care. I still need your help.
The ram amulet you found is a symbol of the ancient supreme god Amel. It's a relic from ancient Egypt. It is said to hold many secrets, and all the scientists who have tried to analyze it have disappeared without a trace. I don't think I should leave it at home!
-
Curse Spinning Machine
Alford Stone
The first item is a very old thread loom from ancient Egypt. It was apparently stolen from the pyramids. Unfortunately, there is an ancient curse on this loom that brings bad luck. Will you help me find it? Once all the items are found, we'll try to remove the curse all together.
You found the yarn loom! You were right to wear gloves. Legend has it that the life of anyone who touches it will be wound around the thread loom and turned into thread. And it is said that anyone can easily end that person's life by breaking the thread.
-
The Princess's Legacy
Alford Stone
What a surprise to learn that a real princess lives in this city! Alas, she has already left this fog-shrouded city. However, it is said that Mistress Peacock left some items behind when she left the city. Could you find one of them for me?
Excellent. Miss Peacock's fire screen is a very valuable item. Thank you for your fine work! This one is over 100 years old, but the steel has lost none of its luster and the gems are sparkling. It is a gem that every antique dealer would love to have!
-
Order of Personality
Bartholomew
Thanks to her, I was able to make a new life for myself from a lowly thief to a butler. You may think that my view of Madame is biased. But it is not. I will prove it. There should be a cricket tournament trophy in the bedroom.
This trophy was presented to Mrs. Harmon in a friendly cricket match. Mrs. Holland was a very good cricketer, but she had to go easy on others in order to win the game. Nevertheless, her skills were noticed and she was given the award. She was very embarrassed, but was delighted to see the reaction of her friends.
-
complete trust
Bartholomew
By bringing me back to her mansion, Madame Le Verrier gave me a new life. Every day was full of happiness, but there was one day in particular that made me extremely happy. On that day, Madame and Madame Le Verrier called me and she put a special brooch on my lapel. Could you please find it for me?
You found my precious brooch, thank you. I became the steward of this house that day that the Lady put it on me. Since then, I have worn this brooch only on special occasions. This meant that I was the keeper of the servants. Who would have thought that such an honor would be bestowed upon me?
-
Light of Trust
Bartholomew
Becoming a butler was not easy. I was born and raised in a slum, so to live was to steal. The master knew about my past and still trusted me to take care of his expensive silverware. Can you find the silver cleaner I used?
I was using this cleaner kit to take care of the silverware that the madam had entrusted to me. I felt like a weed growing in a beautiful rose garden because I was so honored to have gained her trust. How could someone like me even think of being given a chance? But Madame gave me that chance.
-
Purification of the soul
Bartholomew
It must be hard to believe that the Le Verrier lady would hire a thief as a servant and keep him in her house. But it is true. In the bedroom, there is a place to store the servants' tools of the trade. There should be a jug there, but have you seen it?
It is this very pitcher...He took mercy on me and released me in the court where the lowly are judged. When He brought me back to the mansion, He first told the other servants to help me wash and purify my body, and then He gave me this pitcher of water. Since then, it has become a symbol of my new life.
-
Complicated Past
Bartholomew
I started working for the Le Verrier family a long time ago. I have a complicated past, and there was a time when I gave up on the job itself. I have a colorful feather ornament in one of my old boxes, can you find it? That would corroborate my story.
When I look at this old feather ornament, it brings back only bitter memories. You would have noticed residents of the slums wearing these accessories. It is a sign that the owner belongs to the community of thieves. As you may have guessed, I used to be a thief.
-
something that shouldn't be there
Martha
There is no doubt in my mind that someone is behind the commotion in the bedroom, someone who is eager to get revenge on the mistress about someone else's death. When I tried to read the wavelengths left on the ring, I got the image of the killer's hand burning with pain and removing something from his hand with great force. Look for related items!
Oh my...it looks like this glove was worn by a ghost. The fact that the ghost was able to remove a part of itself means that the shell is suffering from negative emotions. If this continues, the spirit will lose itself completely.
-
evidence of a crime
Martha
The culprit behind many of the horrific events that occur in the bedroom is someone who does not use witchcraft, whose mansion is his home, and who holds a grudge against the mistress who did him wrong. This is not enough. Check the dark places in the room again. Maybe I'm missing something.
The ring is covered in dust. It must have been here all along. You see the cavity for the poison? The ruthlessness of death. No. Too much time has passed for me to read the wavelengths left on the ring. But I do know that it was a very strong emotion. It seems whoever broke the ring was seeking revenge for someone else's death.
-
Communicating with Other Worlds
Alford Stone
People have always been attracted to the supernatural. Even I once worked with a witch to create a device to detect magical traces left on objects. I've used it to find powerful psychic tools, and I'm one step closer to finding them... but you'll have to search for them with me!
It's unbelievable! This is one of the rarest magical tools. According to books on witchcraft, spiritualists used it to draw dark energy from lifeless objects. Let's take a closer look... this is at least 6 centuries old!
-
What was cut up
Martha
Now it's clear to me. That the horrific events taking place in the bedroom are related to the vile treatment the mistress has done to someone in the past. Look at her portrait on the wall. It's been mutilated by a blade! Can you pass the portrait over here? I'll try to read the emotions of the person who cut her.
Thanks for the portrait. The cut-outs convey a very strong emotion! 'At the same time this woman came, a plague was brought upon this house! And. Look at the back of the painting. This painting was done the year the mistress became the wife of her late husband, the Baron de Le Verrier!
-
Winning Collections
Martha
The culprit causing the ruckus in the bedroom hates witchcraft. In other words, he is not a magician of any kind. Most of the objects here show no signs of having been touched by a third party, but that box over there has been dropped from the table, and the sigils inside have been scattered all over the floor. Can you find all the sigils?
The moment I touched these emblems, which had belonged to the mistress's late husband, I was filled with a feeling of sadness. I can hear the heart of the last person to touch the box saying. 'Are all the lives that have been led to ruin mere medals!' And. I wonder if the culprit of all this commotion has anything to do with any of the mistress's deceased husbands?
-
Discovering Genius
Alford Stone
It would be great to find something that belongs to the genius Howard Case. It would probably be the highest value of any of the exhibits! I have heard rumors that one of his artifacts was in the hands of a group of collectors. And that they had to give it away for who knows what. Can you help us find that mysterious artifact?
I'm not a big fan of magical items, but this Howard Case artifact is fascinating. When it is the item of a true genius who miraculously found his way to the City of Shadows, it is truly a treasure. Maybe one day we'll find out what fate befell him.
-
unresolved case
Alford Stone
If you are looking for items from prominent people in town, don't forget Agent Dipp. Because he was investigating the disappearance of Angela Crawley, who was a friend of his. When he learned that the search was unsuccessful, he apparently threw away his magnifying glass in exasperation. Let's look for that!
The legendary investigator's magnifying glass...a marvelous piece! There was only one case he could not solve. Yes, the disappearance of his friend Angela Crawley. Normally a calm and polite Agent Dipp, he must have felt quite frustrated about this case.
-
The star of the collection
Alford Stone
What I am about to collect are rare items related to some of the city's most prominent people. I was once strolling through a park and discovered that it was the park of the famous writer Angela Crowley! What's more, apparently some of her manuscripts are still in town.
I'm surprised you actually found Angela Crawley's manuscript. And it's neatly bound, too! See, handwritten notes by a talented young detective fiction writer who mysteriously disappeared while investigating a case involving the Mafia...this should definitely be a mainstay in my collection.
-
Secret Safe
Alford Stone
This should have nothing to do with Shirley's prank, but I'll open the vault and show you. I haven't set foot in there since the witch incident, and I too would like to take another look at the treasure with my own eyes. But the lock looks a little rusty. Could you lend me a tool so I can open it?
That's strange...the lock is broken. It's as if someone tried to pick it. But thanks to your tools, the vault door has been opened. What's going on here? My treasure is missing! Instead of your precious treasure, only a piece of paper has fallen out. Oh my God... it's Shirley's handwriting again!
-
Broken symbols
Martha
The sooner we can determine the identity of the force infesting the bedroom, the sooner we will know how to quell its malignant energy. To find out who the culprit is, I'll try to read the wavelengths that reside in the items touched by the owner of this power. This stained glass window is broken! Can you find the shards?
To have found a piece of stained glass so quickly! This pentagram design is used as a symbol for witchcraft. When I touched the shard, I could hear someone's mind saying... "Witchcraft has brought disaster to this house!" And. So the culprit causing all this commotion is not a magician.
-
Ritual Tones
Alex
Rituals often require music. Music can help us meditate and elevate our spirits. Hanako's ritual also needs music. Find me a bell for the dance. It must be somewhere in the Tea Room.
This bell is an unusual instrument, isn't it? It is used not only to create rhythm in ritual dances, but also to dispel evil spirits and to prevent anything from interfering with the communication with the souls.
-
Forgotten Accessories
Augustine Capuchin
Perhaps Ms. Shirley was also keeping an eye on Mr. Stone? Then she found out that he was afraid of witches and came up with a plan to get rid of him. But I have a feeling that she had another purpose. You can tell by the earrings that fell around here. Please look for them together.
Well, you found an earring in the shape of an avocado cut in half! Mr. Avocado had cufflinks of the same design. Is Ms. Shirley connected to Mr. Avocado, the mafia boss? The earrings were caught on the carpet. And under it, you see...something like a small door.
-
Shopkeeper to watch
Alford Stone
How in the world did Shirley manage to cause a witch riot without anyone noticing? I had her under constant surveillance. I had a special painting in my store with a peep hole in it. Can you find that for me?
You found the peephole painting quite easily. Shirley didn't seem to notice at all. I monitored her as she served customers to make sure she wasn't messing with sales, but she never seemed to be up to anything! She didn't seem to be up to anything!
-
stain on the past
Alford Stone
The confrontation with me worked against Shirley. I had an interesting fact about her past...in fact, there had been a previous incident in which a large amount of cash had disappeared from a restaurant where she worked as a waitress. It seems she secretly threw away an apron she was using for work and I found it. Now, go on, find it.
See, this apron has the logo of the restaurant where the money disappeared. I suggested to Shirley that if I testified, surely the Sheriff's Department would be interested in hearing it. From then on, she had to shut up and work in the restaurant without interfering with my methods.
-
Communicating with the Gods
Juliette
My dear friend, Hanako-san's miko costume requires a red and white ribbon to decorate her hair. It is a very important item. Find the fabric for that ribbon. I will prepare it according to the scroll found in the "tea room.
According to the scroll, there is a reason why these headdresses and priestess costumes are all white and red. These are the colors used by the gods. By wearing these colors, the priestesses of the souls can approach the gods in the spiritual world.
-
ceremonial cloak
Martha
Miz Hanako needs a white robe. Long-sleeved ceremonial cloak. It should be in the Tea Room. It should be well embroidered with red thread.
Wow, you found a ceremonial "white robe". It even has a red decorative cord. Does this mean anything to you? I'll ask her when she lets everyone go.
-
Forbidden Rare Items
Alford Stone
What in the world did Shirley do this stupid prank for? She suggested putting new items in the store... saying it was "to make a profit". I was adamantly against it. This is an antique store. It's not a store that sells collector's junk. I'm sure there are still some left, so keep looking.
What in the world is that collector's junk for? Well, I don't really care. It looks perfectly new, and I'm only interested in historic items. I told Shirley as much. She countered, but I made my point.

discord
Alford Stone
Why did Shirley want me to think she was being chased by a witch? Aren't we friends who run the store together? Sure, we had our disagreements. Shirley was concerned that the store's profits were declining. Look at this accounting ledger.
Shirley kept this ledger. I'm not interested in calculating money or profit. My only passion is antiques! But she advised me to close the store and invest the money in another business. What a load of crap! Of course I objected.

ceremonial costume
Valerie
This ritual requires a special garment called a hakama. Wearing it, Hanako performs the ritual of filling the souls. It's shaped like a pair of pants with a big spread. They are similar to those worn by the samurai. There are only strings and knots. Let's see if we can find some in the Tea Room.
What a lovely fabric. It's so light and attractive. I might make something like these hakama too. I bet Hanako would know how to weave a pattern for trousers like this.

The Lucky Goddess Who Didn't Smile
Alford Stone
Who in the world made me think I was being chased by a witch? Oh, by the way, Mr. Hayes also bought some accessories. Not for herself, but as a gift to the owner of the cabaret, Mr. Avocado. That was a replica of a good luck charm, I believe. The real one is in a box around here somewhere. Please look for it with me.
Have you found your lucky charm? It's an elaborate and delicate item, but I made a duplicate that was indistinguishable from the real thing, and Mr. Hayes was completely unaware that it was a fake. But what if Mr. Avocado is familiar with antiques and realized that the item he received was a reproduction? He would be a very dangerous person...

flower for dancing
Lady
For the Miz Hanako ritual, you need a branch with flowers on it. It is a tool used in the ritual dance. It is also an offering to the souls after the ceremony. Come with me. I will help you choose the best branch for the dance.
This flower smells wonderful. But be careful, they are very fragile. Don't scatter the petals before the ceremony begins.

Imperial Knot
Martha
This turtle knot is one of the oldest symbols. In order for the mayor to get through his "trial of righteousness" and get the card cheater out of jail, he needs to learn how to make this wonderful shimekome, which is used to tie gifts of righteousness. Come on, I'll help him!
This "turtle decorated with a turtle" is perfect. It is a symbol of wisdom and longevity. It is imbued with powerful energy. I have no doubt that the mayor will overcome his ordeal with dignity.
-
Deceived Star
Alford Stone
If one of the guests who received a duplicate instead of the real one is the culprit, I guess I should look into Sophia Hayes. She was looking for a luxurious dressing table for her dressing room. So I provided her with a reproduction of an antique vanity. The real one is still here. Find it.
It's a great vanity. No wonder I couldn't part with it, right? Mr. Hayes has a beautiful singing voice, but he doesn't seem to have much of an eye for antiques. I gladly bought her a reproduction. Do you think it's possible that a famous diva dressed up as a witch?
-
Expensive gifts
Alford Stone
I don't see how a TSA agent could have been involved in this malicious prank. They always offer him the real thing at a reasonable price. And that's not all. I also regularly gave Director Black gifts. I picked out a set of fine quill pens for him, which should be in one of the boxes here.
If I had given this to Director Black, he would have loved it. That man has a taste for elegant taste. But before I could give him this gift, the witches...well, whoever came up with this vicious prank got in the way.
-
Knots of Wisdom
Detective
I never thought I'd help the mayor rescue a card cheater from jail. The mayor needs to learn how to make a different magic shimmy to get past the "test of righteousness". Help him. We'll make the Chrysanthemum Shimekidari. That flower has 16 petals. Can you help me, buddy?
Whoa! You really are a jack of all trades, aren't you? This "Chrysanthemum Shimekari" has one, two, three...countless petals on it! Hanako says they are meant to express one's obligation or debt of gratitude to one's superiors. For example, a person in authority.
-
Competitive Knots
Valerie
The mayor just doesn't like to be adventurous. Once the mayor gets past Hanako's ordeal and the card cheater is released from jail, the mayor will know he's not such a bad guy. Card cheaters are just restless, just like me. Come on, let's help the mayor make a "ship's clamshell". They used to give in-law gifts to their competitors.
According to Hanako, this "ship's shimekari" is a symbol of the relationship between rivals. It is a symbol of wealth and prosperity. It means good luck to both parties. It's very dignified!
-
A fine collection
Lewis Capuchin
I feel there is something organized about the way the killer did this. Has Mr. Stone had any trouble with the Sheriff's Department in the past? I have heard that Violet Bureau members collect military insignia. Let's see if there are any antique shoulder insignia here.
I am not very familiar with these things, but I think I have seen a Violet Bureau member wearing one just like this one. It is possible that Mr. Stone sold her a duplicate and bought her a grudge...she might choose to arrest him rather than take revenge.
-
Existence of Business Enemies
Augustine Capuchin
Find out who came up with the witch prank. That person must have had a substantial motive. Is it a business rival? By the way, Mr. Delamode also deals in antique items. I think I saw something here that looks very similar to a shoehorn I bought from him some time ago. Could you please search for it with me?
It certainly looks a lot like something I purchased at Atelier Delamode. But, as Luis pointed out, most of the items that Mr. Delamode sells are clothes, and only a few elegant antique pieces. There seems to be no reason to go out of your way to scare off antique dealers.
-
death sentence
Alford Stone
Now you know that I am definitely being targeted by witches, don't you? Okay, let me show you one last piece of conclusive evidence. The witches performed a gruesome ritual using a straw doll that looked just like me. You will have to believe me when you see the doll.
The witches wrapped this straw doll in my hair before piercing it with a needle and leaving it here. I must be alive today because I immediately protected myself with many amulets and spells I saw in old books and set traps in the store.
-
danger sign
Alford Stone
The old woman who bought that charm was actually a witch who collects antique items with magical powers. She realized it was a fake and decided to put a curse on me! I realized this when I saw a needle with a red thread left on the door of the store. Come over here and take a look.
No, you shouldn't touch the needle! The red thread is a sign of danger. I read in a book about witches that they stick needles in the doors of their enemies' houses. And if there is a red thread on the needle, it means that the house is cursed by the witch's family.
-
fake treasure
Alford Stone
It was a replica of a certain item that caused the witches to turn against me. I sold a crescent-shaped charm to an old woman. A reproduction, of course. She said she was interested in mysticism...a few days later, the broken charm was returned. It had to be around here somewhere. Look for it!
I guess they found the charm that caused the trouble. It was returned by mail, with no letter of any kind in it. The old woman didn't even ask for a refund. Suspicious, isn't it? That's when I started noticing all sorts of other suspicious signs. They were getting scarier and scarier.
-
Genius of forgery
Alford Stone
In this tense situation, threatened by the witches, there is no time to make a deal. I will tell you my secret in full. The secret that caused the witches' curse. Look at this old picture frame. It's actually brand new. Find me some aging paint and I'll tell you all about it.
I was using this aging paint to make reproductions of antique items. It wasn't to make money. I just didn't want to part with an item that had a buyer! I gave the customers reproductions that were completely indistinguishable from the real thing, but no one noticed... except one.
-
Vivid memories
Alford Stone
You don't seem to believe my story. You think I'm crazy. But I have proof that the witches are after me. Let me show you that! They must be behind the disappearance of my co-owner. Will you help me find her white glove? If we find it, I'll tell you what happened.
You found a pair of gloves! These were worn by my partner, Shirley Fletcher, when she showed her goods to customers. I made her a partner in the business, but when the witches came after us, she disappeared along with all her belongings. All that was left was this white glove...
-
Fatal vapor
Alford Stone
In fact, I have a potion that will take away the evil ones' magical powers. Let's try that on those who call themselves filmmakers. I've been going through some old books on witches and I saw a recipe for a potion that would break the spell...it could be any of the books in there. Can you help me find it?
I guess they found the potion to break the spell! I thought I hid it pretty well, but... well, the witches must not have even known I had this recipe. The witches would have collapsed and lost their powers just by inhaling the vapors of this potion. What the hell? Still standing? Let's wait a little longer.

Fellowship Knots
Mayor
I need to go through the ordeal to free the card cheater from his origami prison. To know what kind of pain the bastard was trying to inflict on me. Help me make a "bamboo shimedori." According to Hanako-san, the shimekidari is meant to represent the strengthening of bonds with one's friends. You will find everything you need in the Tea Room.
You are really dependable. It was really complicated to make the "bamboo shimekuri" which is a symbol of deepening relationship. I appreciate your help. But I am sure the card cheaters will not appreciate our efforts.
-
Ties of Friendship
Hanako
I sense a hesitation in your heart, Mr. Mayor. Nevertheless, you are trying to save the wicked wannabe card cheater from the origami prison. To do so, you must overcome the "test of righteousness. You are to make a shimenzukuri that reflects and honors various relationships and events. These are sometimes considered gifts for such events. First, please make a "pine and plum tree shimekodori". After that, we will reveal the sacred meaning of these ornaments.
I see that you have made a "pine and plum tree shimekodori". It is traditional to make this decoration when congratulating friends and associates, wishing them virtue and good fortune.

Embodiment of the impermanence of all things
Doorkeeper
Flower buds are essential to the art of ikebana. The combination of colors and branches builds complexity. Let's find the buds and help the lady overcome the ordeal of harmony and save Adeline.
You found the buds of the magnolia. This flower symbolizes the transient nature of love... Perhaps Adeline's lost love has turned her against the lady?
-
Exposing Eyes
Alford Stone
I knew that an experienced witch would come to me one day. Such a witch would know how to defend herself against steel. But I would surely expose the evil nature of this woman. In fact, for such a time as this, I have prepared an alchemist's lens that will reflect what is hidden. Find it with me.
When this alchemist's lens is placed on the witch's skin, it reveals the marks left behind during witch coven and other evil rituals. Funny, it doesn't work...that could mean that this lens is not powerful enough. We are being deceived by this witch!
-
cold feeling
Alford Stone
All right, let's expose these wicked witches for what they are! Silver works against the living dead, but even witches fear steel. Among the antique objects stored in the store is a special pendant. Let's use it to test those who call themselves filmmakers. Look for the steel pendant.
So you held this steel pendant in your hand and nothing happened. Steel is said to leave marks on a witch's skin. If we put the pendant in this woman's hand, we should be able to tell if she's a witch. What? Nothing happened? That's funny... but there are other ways to test!
-
Aromatic Charm
Alford Stone
You claim the innocence of this witch and her sorceress? Then let's run some tests. I'm sure you'll be proven wrong. I need some herbs for protection, and I believe I have a bunch of rosemary around here. It was given to me by a wise woman who, like me, is being chased by witches. Find me the wise woman's rosemary.
Wearing this rosemary should dispel the evil forces. Wormwood and mint also work, though not as well as rosemary. I have been hunted by witches for quite some time now, but thanks to the power of the amulet, I have survived this long. I have a wealth of knowledge about amulets as well as antiques.
-
Intricately woven protective tools
Alford Stone
You don't look like a sneaky witch to me... are you being chased by them too? But you two aren't here to make a movie. They are sorcerers who have come to seek revenge against me! I will prove that they are evil. Together, we'll find the braided belt. It's a belt to contain the witch's power.
The fact that you don't change color when you touch the braided belt is also a sign that you have passed the test. You're not a magician, apparently. This Alford Stone is very confident in this sort of thing. This belt has a spell woven into it to ward off evil, and witches and sorcerers who touch it lose their ability to cast spells.

Mystery light
Lewis Capuchin
The story of this film should be very exciting. To do so, we need to figure out the secret of this restaurant. You see something like a light in front of you. That is a candle! That means someone else is here besides us. Let's find out how long that ceremonial candle has been burning.
Judging from the condition of the candle wick, it appears that not much time has passed since it was lit. This candlestick is covered with strange symbols. Come to think of it, I have seen such a symbol in a movie about a coven of witches. It seems that this antique store has become a witch's lair!
-
Welcome Ghosts
Lewis Capuchin
Being in this store sends chills down my spine. We must solve the mystery and finish shooting as soon as possible! Strange sounds, ominous symbols, and...oh my! I can see the ghost! Oh, thank goodness...it was just something shaking in the draft. That looks like a hanging net. Let's check it out.
Who would hang something like this in an abandoned store? What in the world for? No one must have set foot in here for years...I get it. When these nets are reflected in the windows, they look like ghosts. It must have been set up to keep people away. There is definitely a secret hidden here. Someone must be trying very hard to protect it!
-
Wealthy Clients
Augustine Capuchin
What secrets does this antique store have to hide? Here is a catalog of the items. Let's see if there are any mysterious items for sale here, such as relics of antiquity. But I don't see anything like that...Oh, some expensive business cards fell out of the catalog. Could you pick them up?
The business cards collected confirmed that the store's clients were very wealthy. If so, how did this happen? Perhaps they were targeted by the mafia or something that trades in antiques? We must continue to make this film in order to unravel the mystery.
-
Past Glory
Augustine Capuchin
The biggest mystery to me is why this store fell into decline. I inquired about it and was told that the store was once very famous and from here antique items were given to lovers from all over the country. Let's look for even a single parcel left behind.
That's as good as it gets! Props like this are essential for a film to tell the story of this store's brilliant past. But it's funny... this parcel is not dusty at all, even though it should have been there for a long time. What does that mean? There is no way a ghost would dust it...
-
Disturbing Symbols
Lewis Capuchin
This sign is much more camera-worthy than I thought it would be! It has a very nice, albeit rusty, chain. And look, you can also see "Stone" and "Fletcher", the names of the store owners. Funny, there is an inverted pentagram handwritten on "Stone"...this is bad luck!
-
Embodiment of constancy
Martha
The souls refuse to tell us about the core of Adeline's wish. The only way to find out is for the lady to go through the ordeal and make a flower arrangement. According to Hanako, this arrangement requires a "green branch. It is the embodiment of the present.
These leaves have just sprouted from this "green branch," haven't they? They carry the energy of constancy and harmony of the present. You have contributed immeasurably to Lady's ordeal.
-
Embodiment of the foundation
Juliette
The first thing to do when making a bouquet is to determine the size of the vase in which to arrange the flowers. The size of the floral arrangement is determined by the diameter and depth of the vase. Find the right basket for your flower arrangement. May the Lady overcome her ordeal and save Adeline.
Oh, what a wonderful basket you chose! My dear friend, this would be a perfect flower arrangement for a lady to make. I hope you find out what Adeline's wish was soon so you can let her go.
-
Embodiment of the Trinity
Lady
You need to know what Adeline wished for, and to save her from her origami prison, you need to make fresh flowers. The flower girl says she needs three "crooked branches. She says they represent heaven, earth, and man. Help me find them in the Tea Room.
You found some great branches. Thanks for helping me. I'm going to trim the branch so it looks like the crown of a single branch.
-
Lush Landscapes
Lewis Capuchin
Augustine has always been an inspiration to me. And I too would love to preserve the legend of that haunted building on film. What if the tales of the haunting are true? First, let's check inside the antique store to see if it is safe.
This store is filled with odd items. And there are shadows flickering and moving all over the place. I don't feel comfortable filming here, but it is indeed a great setting for a movie. Too bad the store owners are missing and we can't hear their stories.
-
Embodiment of the past
Hanako
What the Lady must undergo is the "ordeal of harmony. In order for the precious souls to receive the folded paper that contains Adeline's soul, you must make a basket of ikebana flowers with plum blossoms as the base color. This ikebana arrangement will reflect the path of time as it moves from the past to the future. All will be found in the "Tea Room".
You have brought the most wonderful plum blossoms in my garden. This bud is fully open. In other words, you have embodied the past.
-
Only the loyal.
Monk
Whatever your heart tells you, do not ignore the voice of facts. The agent has used the blessings of his soul for the wrong purpose. Hoping for something that will harm the detective. Or did he make some mistake without knowing it? You're one step closer to an answer. In order to pass the "test of honor," your friend must find a flag with the dragonfly crest, with a picture of a dragonfly flower and a bamboo.
A banner with a dragonfly on it represents loyalty. Only those who are loyal to the Lord at all times are allowed to wear this banner.
-
Only trustworthy people.
Huntress
To find out what the agent wants and free him from his origami prison, the detective needs to go through the "trial of honor". That guy will help Hanako finish her ordeal. Help him find the samurai flag with the diamond-shaped picture on it.
Friends, you found a flag! According to Hanako, the diamond-shaped flag represents trust. Only those who can be relied upon at all times can wear this crest.
-
Only those with patience.
Juliette
Dear friend, did the agent really do a harmless favor to our dear detective? I'm baffled. But I can't just sit back and do nothing. I want to help with the ordeal. Let's look for the flag of fortitude, the flag with the oak leaf symbol.
The found Samurai flag is only worn by those who have the courage to protect the truth based on their unyielding hearts and beliefs. Hanako-san told me.
-
Only the brave.
Detective
What kind of wish did you write on the origami that Dip was put in jail? He has to go through an ordeal to save him. By the way, the next step in the "ordeal of honor" is to find the emblem of a noble samurai. First we're going to look for a flag with a picture of an eagle's wings on it, a "banner of valor."
You found a samurai flag for valor. Thanks, buddy. Look, it says right here. This emblem is given only to those who do not lie and do not practice hypocrisy.
-
Only those who deserve it.
Hanako
The investigator, Mr. Dip, wished the detective misfortune. For this reason, he has been placed in an origami jail by invisible judges. However, the detective doubts the fairness of this sentence, and wants to pour out the stigma of your friend. I will therefore hold a "trial of honor" for you. I will hold a "test of honor" for you: to collect a flag bearing the emblem of the Samurai. In the Tea Room, you will find the flag of righteousness.
You have found it in the banner of Kikyo, the emblem of righteousness and constancy. Only those who are worthy of trust can draw this flower on their banner.
