dazzling lead
Vera
It's bright here for a place covered in fog... look! There's a ball of light hanging from a tree branch. This is a very rare and precious item. It's hard to imagine that someone lost it by accident. It must be a clue left by the person who wrote the message. Let's pick up the ball of light and examine it.
Thank God you brought the ball of light down from the tree. I couldn't have reached it myself. Who in the world would have hung it up there? I put a light-measuring device next to this sphere and the readings spiked. It's like this sphere is made of the ultimate in condensed... darkness. Strange.
-
right turn
Vera
Thank God you came with me. It is dangerous to walk alone in the fog. One of the pickers is with Lucas and the rest are away on business. Look at this directional sign! It's the first clue left by the mysterious sender. Let's check it out!
That's a very strange directional sign! I've never seen anything like it. There's nothing written on it, and all the arrows are pointing in the same direction... Whoever left the message must have wanted it to go in this direction. Who could it be?
-
attention-grabbing flash
Kira Woodville
Director Black will not take his eyes off Vila and Lucas for a moment...even though they are running out of time. In this situation, we have no choice but to use a spark grenade. I am sure it will get the Director's attention. It's what they use to detain violators. Now, look for it.
Yes, this is it. Let's get on with the plan. Please believe me. Helping Vila and Lucas will help the city in the future.
-
counterfeit fire
Rayden Storke
I was trying to think of a way to divert the director's attention away from the villas, and then I realized. I realized that I had forgotten the easiest way...yes, fire! Let's make a realistic looking fire so no one gets hurt. Look for a fire lamp!
I was surely right when I thought there must be a fire lamp from Villa around here. This lamp was circulated right after the "distortion" occurred. Because of the supernatural phenomena, it was not possible to start a real fire. Now, let's use this lamp to start a real fire that looks just like the real thing.
-
attention (heed)
Kira Woodville
If we can successfully divert Director Black's attention, we can let Vila and his team go. Oh, by the way...among Veera's belongings was something that looked like a signal light. They are used by the Sheriff's Department. I don't know where Vila got it, but let's look for it.
Thank God you found the signal light! With this, I will be able to lure Director Black to a place far away from Vila and the others. Of course, I will confiscate the signal light later. Of course, I will confiscate the signal light later, since it belongs to the Security Bureau only.
-
Light shining in total darkness
Rayden Storke
I don't know why Keira wants to let the Carlos children go, but I am going to help. So you want to divert Director Black's attention...yes, I have an idea! Make up an accident. Look for the warning lights. They are used by the guards.
This warning light is perfect. And you've found the latest and greatest. Give me a minute...I'll connect this to a timer and be ready to turn it on at the right moment. Vila, Lucas, I'll help you soon!
-
Howls echoing from the forest
Kira Woodville
We are in trouble...Vila and Lucas have just been arrested by Director Black! This leaves us with only one recourse...help us get them off the hook. They are absolutely innocent! We must find a way to divert Director Black's attention. Blowing a werewolf whistle might be a way to do it. Go find them!
This whistle is perfect. It was created by a scientist from the forager group based on a sketch of a defender who analyzed the howl of a werewolf. The eerie howl emanating from this whistle would surely get the attention of the director. In the meantime, you can help Vila and his friends!
-
Beginning of career
Lewis Capuchin
Augustine is not just my wife, she is my faithful de facto partner and best friend. However, I can't remember what led me to work with her. Somehow I think it has something to do with an old hand-held camera...can you help me find it? It might bring back memories.
Just as I thought! As soon as I saw this old hand-held camera, I remembered everything. This camera was auctioned off by Augustine. I wanted one too, but she beat me to it! Some time later, we shot our first documentary film with this camera.
-
First Symbol
Augustine Capuchin
My wife and I have a rule. It is that every year Luis will give us a rose, beautifully wrapped in film. But I can no longer remember what started this tradition... Please help me find that rose. I really don't want to forget the wonderful memories!
When I held the rose in my hand, it brought back memories... On our first date, Luis gave me a rose. I thought "I don't even want to talk to this pushy guy" but he promised to take me to a secret premiere screening...that night I already fell in love with him.
-
Fateful Encounters
Lewis Capuchin
My wife and I keep a tight control on our collectibles. In fact, we have found a list of collectibles and would like you to find the auction number tag on it. According to the short note attached to the list, it appears to be an item related to my wife and I meeting. Unfortunately, I can't recall any of it now...
Number 17 number tag...oh, I remember now! My wife and I met at a movie auction. She bid on item number 17, which was the item I wanted! I went to see who took that item...I fell in love at first sight.
-
Unusual beams
Augustine Capuchin
I looked into the Lewis projector that caused Lewis and Mad Ricky to switch. Apparently, the projector is also the solution to this problem. Leyden said that Ricky is already trapped and on his way here. Please help me bring the projector from Lewis' workshop!
Thank you for your cooperation! Let's put the projector here. Do you see a couple of beams coming out? Place one of them on Mad Ricky and the other on the film of the movie in which Lewis is trapped. If my guess is correct, Ricky should return to the film and Lewis should return to the real world.
-
warning
Rayden Storke
Ricky is a professional thief. He may steal the fake diamond you have prepared and get away with it without anyone noticing. You should attach a signal lamp to the base of the diamond. If you find it, I will explain how it works.
You found the best signal lamp! We have already attached it to the base of the diamond. As soon as Ricky touches the diamond, the lamp should emit a loud signal. If that happens, it will be impossible for him to escape without anyone noticing.
-
Dangerous fugitives
Augustine Capuchin
In the movie, Mad Ricky gets arrested three times. But each time, he escapes out of handcuffs. Then the police made a special shackle for him. As you can imagine, he couldn't escape from it. If you want to catch him, you need similar shackles. Will you search for him with us?
Excellent! This is the same ashase that was used in the scene where Ricky is arrested. I don't know how long we can keep him in custody, but I'll see if I can figure out a way to replace him with Luis during that time. Oh, I can't wait to see my husband!
-
Compass Principle
Kira Woodville
Vila said she observed Lucas' reaction to the crystal, but where on earth did he get it from? No, we will talk about this later. First we have to find Lucas. By the way, Vila said that there is a magnetic pointer that detects the location of Lucas's clothes. Can you help me find that?
The pointer detects traces of the radiator on Lucas's clothing and gives us an approximate route to his location. The closer we get to him, the better chance we have of detecting Lucas's location through the radio interference caused by the fog.
-
signs of life
Vera
I once had a dark hunter attack that claimed the life of one of my companions. At the time, Lucas was clearly confused and wouldn't talk. Can you use this device to check this whole area? I need a thermograph of Lukas's hands!
You found the thermography of Lucas's hand! Now we know where to go. Lukas, wait for me. I'll help you right away. Before you leave, let me make sure you don't have any artifacts containing crystals. An experiment has revealed a fact. Lucas is afraid... of the crystal.
-
More capable than a dog
Rayden Storke
Vila has entrusted me with a tracking rat named "Sprite". He is a special kind of rat that can breathe and smell even in fog. Unfortunately, it has escaped... but please help us catch it!
This mouse is somewhat uneasy. According to Vila, it was Lucas' pet. She said that this guy helped her get back on her feet when she lost consciousness several times. Poor Vila and Lucas...Carlos will be so sad when he finds out about this.
-
The scent of the owner's remnants
Vera
My brother's condition got worse day by day for a few years before the dark hunters started targeting him. We tried so hard to protect each other... but maybe Lucas dropped something in the fog. A handkerchief, for example... but to find my brother, we need his belongings. Can you help me look for it?
You found Lukas' handkerchief. Thank God! I'll try to find it as soon as I can. My brother is going a little crazy... sometimes he mumbles about the houses he sees and the voices he hears in the fog. Come on, let's keep searching!
-
the water of life
Kira Woodville
If this happens, we have no other choice. Together with Vila, we will look for Lucas. We will take our time with the interrogation afterwards. Don't worry. We won't even look at Vila for a moment. Before we go searching, we need to prepare drinking water. We need one for us and one for Lucas. Find a bottle of water.
They found it well. The bottle is made of glass reinforced with fog and it's hard to break. According to Vila, the dark hunter's attack began a long time ago. And that Lucas has changed completely since he first wandered into the fog. What happened in the fog?
-
Shiny belt
Rayden Storke
So a character named Mad Ricky came to town, and Lewis got into the movie instead? I know how to catch that bad guy. You lure him into a trap with a fake diamond. Can you help me find the diamonds?
It's like the real thing. You have to spread the rumor that there are precious diamonds hidden in the city. Then Ricky will surely come to steal them. That's your chance to catch him!
-
Beginning of the chase
Augustine Capuchin
What if Louis is stuck in the movie forever? We must hurry to find a character from the movie who is staying in town instead of her husband. That person dropped something on his way out. Let's take a look at it. You may be able to find out who he is!
I see you found the cigar cutter. I have seen the movie that Lewis got into before. The guy in it, Mad Ricky, had this cigar cutter. He is the main villain and he is wanted by the police. We can't let someone like that loose on the streets!
-
Traces of Crime
Alicia
Was the clash with the Five Wise Guardians the reason why the designer started a fire and disappeared? If so, what was the reason for the clash? In the note left by the designer, there was a description about the anti-mist crystal she was making for the guardian group. Let's examine her belongings to see if we can find any traces of the crystal.
Look closely at the designer's gloves found. It has crystal fine powder on it. So she was actually using anti-fog crystals. Oh my, what is this... a message from a member of the guardian group? It says, "If you try to hide the crystal, you will surely regret it. We will find it.
-
Family Feuds
Kira Woodville
In other words, the fire that ruined so many of the designer's inventions long ago was her own doing. But why would she do that? Maybe she was trying to cover up something in the garden, or maybe someone was after her. Look. Part of the coat of arms has fallen to the ground. Let's look for the rest.
This is the coat of arms of the Five Wise Guardians to which the designer belonged. What a heavy coat of arms! This was deliberately broken. It must have taken a lot of strength. It seems that the rumors were correct...the designer had left the Five Wise Guardians shortly before the fire.
-
a humble beginning
Rayden Storke
Are there no other marks to point us in the direction of Vila's lair anymore? The latest technology...no, wait a minute. Not all of them are modern. All of Vila's early inventions were made with simple chemical tools. Look for the pestle and mortar.
You are lucky! The tools of a good alchemist are a pestle and mortar. I didn't realize there was a flag with such a symbol. I think I'm close to finding out where Vila is. Now we just have to search through the buildings around here...
-
beacon
Kira Woodville
Vila recently discovered a fluorescent raw liquid that can glow even in fog. The collectors use it to mark their locations so they don't get lost in the fog. Is it possible that something similar could be used to mark Vila's location? Let's look for the flask sign together.
The flask on this sign is tilted. We can safely assume that it indicates the direction of the hiding place. So it's this way...and how dark it is. Wouldn't it be nice to have fluorescent markers at times like this? It's always pitch black and you never know where danger lurks...what's it like to live as a forager in such an environment?
-
tiger beetle (esp. the Japanese tiger beetle, Cicindela japonica)
Rayden Storke
The survival of the gatherers depends on their ability to develop their skills. The fact that Vila is helping them to do so means that there may be some kind of tool to help them find their way around. Could you help me look into the engineering symbols over there? It doesn't seem like a normal symbol to me...
If you look closely, you can see a compass and a right angle ruler painted on it. These are items that symbolize Vila's engineering studies! Not only is she good at chemistry, but she also has a talent for designing all sorts of tools. I would love to take a peek into her workspace once...
-
cohesion strategy
Kira Woodville
Based on the totality of the reports and what Carlos told me, it seems that Vila has always had a strong interest in chemistry. So I think the markings pointing to her location are chemistry related. I saw the skeletal structure formula around here...let's get started looking for it!
I'm impressed that she can come up with skeletal structural formulas with arrows. Shortly after Vila learned to read and write, she learned to memorize chemical formulas and draw structural equations. Carlos often talks about that too...he may have lost his memory, but he never forgets the memories of spending time with his children.
-
The Sparkle of Comets
Rayden Storke
Vila's nickname was "Comet," wasn't it? That's what her father, Carlos, called her from an early age. Lucas, on the other hand, called his sister, who was constantly experimenting, "Flash. Something reminiscent of this may give us a clue to the whereabouts of Vila. There is a root symbol there. Don't you think it looks like the alchemical symbol for sulfur?
This is definitely a sulfur symbol woven with strange roots! It's a good start! Here, look at this. It is slightly tilted. It looks like it's pointing in a particular direction. Let's follow it.
-
If a fire breaks out, you must flee.
Alicia
So far, I had thought that it might be just a coincidence, but I still think that the fire was deliberately started by the designer himself. Let's look for the fire extinguishing flask that was provided to put out the fire. If it is found, it will be conclusive evidence.
I don't see any water in this extinguishing flask at all. And there are no traces of sediment, which is always found in fire extinguishers. This flask probably contained nothing from the beginning. The designer started the fire. And they did not intend to extinguish it from the beginning.
-
lightning rod
Kira Woodville
Let us assume that the designer built a controlled lightning ball for the P-2. If they built such a dangerous device, they must have built a lightning rod in case something unusual happened. Let's look for it.
It's funny. The lightning rods found appear to be very powerful...but look at the ash piled up here. If a lightning bolt had struck the lightning rod, it should have released the current to the ground, but it didn't, and it seems to have ignited. Besides, there seems to be a problem with the design of this lightning rod in the first place.
-
Lightning Manipulator
Alicia
To understand what caused the fire, we need to take a closer look at the security system that is said to have caused it, P-2. the mass of energy generated by P-2 has the appearance of a lightning bolt. Look for evidence that the designer used lightning bolts.
You found a frozen lightning bolt. This is the energy of a lightning bolt trapped inside a cooled crystal. I knew I was right. The designers designed the P-2 on the premise of utilizing a lightning bolt, or more precisely, a "ball of lightning". This is a very unstable phenomenon. Why would the designers even think of utilizing such a thing?
-
Mystery substance
Violet
I found all the possible substances the letter sender may have used to keep the dogs away. Wait a minute... what is this? Could it be something called "stardust"? I don't know why, but collectors carry these around with them all the time. Can you show me something?
Be careful not to ook up stardust. I have a feeling this has something to do with the anonymous letter. But there is no way to know if stardust affects a dog's sense of smell. The collectors won't tell me. I guess we'll have to find out in the lab.
-
Voice of the Lamp
Rayden Storke
Not a single object that could be a clue has been found... Perhaps the designer never came here? But if that's the case, it doesn't explain why the pawnbroker turned a blind eye to the search here. Take a look. That is a kind of dialogue lamp. Only a designer would make such an unusual device! Let's check it out.
This is an item that has nothing to do with the designer. Look, look here. There are some parts that have been soldered very roughly. The whole thing seems to be roughly made. It is probably a simple piece made by a young engineer. Maybe I can buy it later and put it in my workshop.
-
glowing shadow
Kira Woodville
The designer can use her power to manipulate matter to create simple objects. Is it possible that she created tools for the gatherers? For example, a tool to help them safely navigate through the fog. Look, there is a luminous fabric over there. Let's check it out.
This is a fabric as valuable as gold, but it does not appear to be supernatural. It must have been made by a highly skilled craftsman. I have a general idea who it is, but it is not the designer. Let's just say the person is, well...an expert of some sort.
-
eternal flow
Rayden Storke
When the Upper City collapsed in the past, the designers used inhumane methods to rebuild the city. Look for something that seems to defy the laws of physics. There's a fountain there that flows forever. Let's look into that.
This fountain looks like the water keeps flowing without a break, but the intricate movement of this ball just makes it look that way. If the water was truly endless, I would have considered buying this fountain at the Sheriff's Department to supply water to remote areas...but either way, Director Black would not have said yes.
-
Fruits that are sweet on the outside and sour on the inside
Kira Woodville
The designer's greatest weapon is his unique talent to transform the shape of an object simply by mindful thought. This may sound like a strange thing to ask, but... could you please take that mutated strawberry over there? I'd like to check it out.
It seems I was wrong in my prediction. It was the fog that mutated this strawberry, not the designer. I've been trying to figure out why this was pawned...can you hear my take on it? Food mutated in this city never goes bad. With such a rare item, who knows what high price it might fetch someday?
-
Careful cleaning
Violet
I will certainly make the anonymous person who sent the threatening letter regret sending such a rude letter. You may have fooled me about the alligator, but you will never fool me! I will definitely find out what the substance was that was on the paper in large quantities. Is there any possibility that it might be bleach? That's what we'll look for.
It must have been in the cleaning toolbox! I don't think it was the cleaning lady who sent the threatening letter, but I wouldn't rule her out on the suspect list. Because people are not to be trusted... the only people I trust are dogs. You are desperate for your people, but it's hard for me to understand.
-
Cumbersome restoration work
Violet
We need to find out what the anonymous party who sent the threatening letter used to try to numb the dog's sense of smell. I saw Layden here the other day and saw a broom with something white on it. It smelled like something a dog wouldn't like. Let's look for that broom!
You found a broom with plaster still on it. I'll check to see if what was on the letter in the example is plaster. At this point, Layden is one of the suspects, but it's possible that he was just trying to reapply the plaster and not the one who tried to blackmail me.
-
Citrus scent
Violet
This anonymous letter has a special substance on it that numbs the alligator's sense of smell. I learned in officer school that harsh citrus scents, especially grapefruit, are offensive to dogs. Look for grapefruit slices on the ground.
Grapefruit slices, cinnamon, octagonal... these things combined with the smell of these things can make a dog lose its way. Where did you find this? Well... that's where Black's guy works. I knew that guy had a grudge against me. Otherwise, I'd be making hot wine. I'll check it out!
-
Stimulating Substances
Violet
The substance used to numb the dog's sense of smell would have to be fresh. Look for something that the sender of the threatening letter may have used. How about freshly ground red pepper, for example? Check with me to see if there are any traces of red pepper around here!
This red pepper is in a very unusual mill. If I remember correctly, this mill belonged to Black when he worked here. That makes him our prime suspect. If Black is the one who sent those threatening letters, he's not going to get away with it.
-
diversionary tactics
Mr. Black
Oh boy, Violet's dog just woke up! Look at those teeth! I don't think I'm going to be able to get into the office as long as that guy is around... I got a better idea! Carlos had invented an amulet earlier that created an illusion of light in the shape of an animal. We can use that to get the dog's attention. Okay, let's find the amulet!
Did Carlos tell you how to use this amulet? He didn't tell you? Then we'll just have to figure it out ourselves. Hmmm... I don't know, but a cat-shaped phantom of light jumped out of the amulet and ran past the dog. Okay, you fooled me nicely! He's gone after the cat apparition. Now you can get into my office.
-
faithful watchdog
Mr. Black
Shh, Violet's dog is sleeping next to my office! See that pendant on her collar? That pendant sends a warning signal to Violet at the same time the dog barks. You have to sneak up quietly and remove the pendant so as not to wake the sleeping dog. Don't worry, I'm watching you.
When you took the pendant off the dog's collar, you had a momentary twinge. Just before you did, you thought the dog opened its eyes and tried to grab your hand... but it's all right now. In the unlikely event that the dog did bark, Violet would not immediately know.
-
silence
Mr. Black
Once you're through this hallway, turn right next time, and if no one has noticed you at that point, you can go into Violet's office. Oh no... the floor is making a creaking noise. If we don't do something, we'll be noticed! If this happens, we'll have to use a noise-freezing machine. It's a machine that will eliminate unnecessary noise.
It worked. All the footsteps are gone. This machine has saved my life many times. It muffles all sounds within a half-meter radius. The noise freezer is a powerful device that can even muffle the sound of gunfire.
-
Safe route of entry
Mr. Black
I had one of my men break into Violet's office earlier and he touched something that set off the alarm. So this time I had an obstruction radar ready ahead of time... where did it go? I can't believe I lost something so important...please find it!
Thanks for helping me find the obstacle radar. Without it, we'd have been noticed right away! This radar scans the whole room and calculates the safest route for us. Now you don't have to worry about getting trapped.
-
squinty eyes
Mr. Black
The only place I haven't checked is Violet's office. The entrance is heavily guarded, so it would be difficult to get in without anyone noticing. See those plaster statues in the hallway? One of them seems to be looking at us. Can you identify which bust it is?
That bust you found really seems to be keeping an eye on us! I've never seen anything like it. Its eyes are actually moving and tracking our movements. Okay, let's go to the plaster spy and move it to face the wall. Ready?
-
Intercepted packages
Mr. Black
My men just reported in. A package will soon arrive from the mist addressed to Violet. It is said to contain a bracelet in the shape of a vine. Is this another gift from the disciple of "Shadow"? Let's get the parcel and examine the bracelet before it falls into her hands!
I see that you have cleverly obtained the parcel containing the bracelet. Hey, there's a message inside... "The jewelry on the bracelet contains a special smoke. Whoever inhales this smoke will be at your mercy. Use it against your enemies. The day is near when the world will be covered by the Shadow!"
-
Anti-fog material
Mr. Black
The only way to prove that Violet is connected to the shadow cult is to seize the scene. Yesterday, a woman resembling her was seen in a back street in Foggy. She disappeared as soon as she realized she was being followed, and apparently dropped the veil she was wearing at the time. Let's hurry up and look for it!
I see you found the veil! Thanks for helping us with the investigation. Hmmm, it's made of glowing fabric...I see. This veil is woven with crystal threads and is impervious to fog. So, if you wear it, you can hide your face and at the same time avoid inhaling the fog.
-
New Uniforms
Mr. Black
Did Violet believe the cult's story that "shadows" give eternal life to their followers? They sent a spy after her to open the safe with some kind of special thimble. Let's borrow this thimble for a moment, shall we?
You only have about a minute left before Violet comes back and realizes the thimble is gone. Hold this in front of the special scanner attached to the safe...okay, the door is open! Inside the safe is a robe. This... is the robe worn by the disciples of The Shadow!
-
Secret Communication
Mr. Black
I followed Violet, who had just now returned through the back door to the Sheriff's Department headquarters. Before returning to her own office, she looked over one note, lit it on fire, and then threw it in the trash. She managed to put out the fire, but it was blown away by the wind and went somewhere else. Would you look for it?
The note must have been wedged between the floorboards! Let's find out why Violet read this and immediately threw it away. Oh dear, it looks like all the letters have been burned... all that's left is the snake symbol. That's the mark of the Order, right? I mean, the note had a message from them!
-
Evil Gifts
Mr. Black
Why should Violet become a spy for the Order of Shadows? Let's look for evidence that she is connected to the Disciples of the Shadow. Have you seen her brooch? It's a brooch with a very strange design. Can you bring me that one without anyone noticing?
Wow, you found a violet brooch! Look at this jewelry... it contains the same dark energy that was in the bomb of the "Shadow" disciple. Where the hell did she get such a dangerous accessory? Was it a gift from a member of the cult?
-
Taking care of the opposition
Mr. Black
Violet told you. That the bureau officials who didn't vote for her were out on a mission. But perhaps that's a lie! We should take another look at the evidence room at the Sheriff's Office where the badge of missing station employee number 032 was found. They may have the badges of other bureau members there as well.
What a surprise! I've found multiple badges of these fine men! The fact that these are here means they are not on duty. Did Violet take care of all those who didn't agree with her? I see...she and her Octopus unit have taken control of the Security Bureau by force!
-
Forbidden Methods
Mr. Black
I've known Violet for a long time, and I know when she is lying. She sometimes tries to manage her people in ruthless ways. You hear an unbearable sound coming from the interrogation room... examine the flower in the flowerpot there. This unpleasant sound seems to be coming from there.
Just as I thought. The sound is coming from a speaker inside this artificial flower. Violet is said to be using an illegal torture device! When this flower is placed in a cell, the sound is played from it all day long without a break, making it impossible for the prisoner to sleep. And finally, they succumb.
-
Votes that failed
Mr. Black
Violet is definitely lying. She kept quiet about the first round of voting in the Security Director election. It was not an open ballot, but a secret ballot. See, here's the stamped ballot. But one of the ballots is missing. Find it with me!
So they found the missing ballots! Well, now I'm getting to the bottom of it: the only people who voted for her on the first ballot were those in the Octopus Unit who were loyal to her. When she didn't get enough votes then, she decided to have a second vote. And it was an open ballot.
-
Clever con artist.
Mr. Black
We need to find out what happened here at the Security Service since Violet became leader. The only thing left in the vaults here was an emergency supply of dry bread. But when the building was isolated by the fog, the storeroom must have been well-stocked with food. Where the hell did they go?
Was it in the food storage area of the Octopus Unit's assembly hall? Perhaps by hiding food there, Violet was trying to convince those around her that the situation was extremely serious. It's easy to control a frightened opponent.
-
Fog of Fiction
Mr. Black
Violet's story must be different from what happened in real life. Let's do our own investigation and find out what she is hiding. Maybe it's my imagination, but I smelled fog reagent on her....................................Find the reagent with me before Violet's guard dogs sniff out our location.
You said there was a reagent in the violet coat? With it, they can artificially create fog. Traces of this reagent were recognized on the badge of missing bureau member number 032 found in the evidence room. Maybe this bureau member didn't just disappear in the fog. Maybe Violet made him disappear and then fabricated evidence on top of it.
-
indisputable fact
Violet
I'm not going to give a traitor a second chance. That goes for Black, too, who abandoned us. I put every Agency employee through the lie detector to find out who the traitor was. The lie detector must still have the data. Find it and see what it says.
Do you think you'll be able to successfully decipher the lie detector data you found? I conducted the interviews myself, and I immediately recognized the traitors who were working for the shadow cult. Some of them were Black's favorite subordinates. I banished them into the mist. Without hesitation!
-
Incredible Creation
Juliette
You helped me a lot to choose the lilies... but I'm afraid that the mistress will find out that I'm getting into it. He will demand all the flowers in the greenhouse. I will have to make lilies to distract the mistress from the other lilies. The magic of the city will always help you.
You have created an incredible flower, the black lily! I can't believe such a flower really exists. And it's so beautiful. It's also called bat or, in more exotic names, cat's whiskers. I read all about it in the city library. It was not only about lilies, but other plants as well. But I will not tell this to the mistress. Let her enjoy the black lilies. And I won't let him touch the other flowers in the greenhouse.
-
Exalted Value
Juliette
I believe the Golden Lily should also be included in the sound quality. It's on the flag and coat of arms of my native France.
According to an old legend, the Golden Lily is the lily that grew on the battlefield where the founder of the Frankish Kingdom was victorious. That is why this lily is depicted on the flag. Since then, the Golden Lily has been the symbol of the French royal family.
-
True beauty
Augustine Capuchin
Riding on the Wings of the Wind" is one of my favorite films that I have seen more times than I can count. I had in my collection a blanket hat that was used in its filming, but it was stolen by a thief. Please help me find out to whom that hat was sold!
Did you find the blanket hat? This is an iconic prop used in the first full-color film "On the Wings of the Wind". The main character is unable to buy a proper hat due to lack of money, so he uses a blanket to make this hat. Isn't that wonderful fortitude?

A traitor lurking in the ranks
Violet
After being stranded in the Sheriff's Department building by the fog, I decided to lead everyone instead of the director. The hardest part was putting down the prison riot. One of the officers gave the prisoners the keys to the jail, which are difficult to forge. Find the key and see for yourself!
If you look at this mechanical key, you'll see how difficult it is to forge. Without this key, there is no way to open the cell door. The Order has succeeded in winning a few Bureau members over to their side by promising them eternal life. They freed the prisoners and took the Order's side.

defense system
Violet
When the cultists broke in, there was only myself and a few station personnel left in the building. I'm glad I turned on the crystal protector before it was too late. It's still working. Now that the fog has lifted, we can turn it off now. It's right by the back door, if you don't mind me asking.
You turned off the crystal protector. The crystal in the eagle's head would disable the dark energy that entered the building. It was because of that device that I was able to protect myself from the evil techniques used by the "shadow" disciples.

The Face of the Mafia
Augustine Capuchin
Believe it or not, as a kid I wanted to be a gangster. It was inspired by a movie called "The Mafia Father." I was able to get my hands on a prop from this masterpiece, but it seems that it was sold to someone by a thief... Please can you help me find a bright red boutonniere?
You really found the bright red boutonniere used in the filming of "Mafia Father"? I'm thrilled! This item has always inspired me. Actually, the scene with the boutonniere was completely ad-libbed. Did you know that? That's why that awkward and confusing scene came to fruition.

Noble Warrior
Lewis Capuchin
Isn't Japanese culture very interesting? I have been carefully keeping the props from the movie "The Five Yamato Warriors," but the samurai's shoulder gowns were stolen. Would you please help me get it back?
You found a shoulder robe! This is an important part of a samurai's costume. It is very difficult to fold, but it seems that the thief did not know how to fold it. This is something that requires special skills! That is why movie props should be owned by experts.
-
Paralyzing Energy
Violet
After the fog had isolated the Security Bureau, the disciples of The Shadow emerged from the darkness. They tried to break through the entrance by throwing energy bombs into it. If you are brave enough, find it and find out.
You must be very brave to examine the energy bombs of the Disciples of the Shadow. These bombs release dark energy upon detonation, which can break down any wall. What's more, this energy envelops a person's body and paralyzes him or her like the venom of a snake.
-
insurmountable obstacle
Violet
I'll tell you what happened to us here after Black abandoned his men and fled to a safer area of town. First of all, we tried to send messages from the sky asking for help. Now that the fog has lifted, it shouldn't be too hard to find one of the messages we sent.
You found the message. We sent this into the fog, hoping someone would read it. The fog blocked all the signals coming from the equipment here, so we had no choice but to send the message this simple way. So we had to send the message this simple way.

Desert sand
Augustine Capuchin
Camels, desert sun, reform spirit... the theme of the famous movie "Lauren of the Desert". I wish I could find the famous kufiya that the hero of the movie wore on his head...perhaps one of the city's wealthy residents has one.
Did you find the spy quiffiya? This was the lead role in "Lauren of the Desert" that was covered. That was an epic film about reform and ruthless politics, but it actually didn't have a single actress in it. Did you know that?
-
Supplies for Survival
Mr. Black
Many of our men who were delayed in evacuating remained intact here at the Security Bureau headquarters. I just hope they had enough supplies to survive here...let's see if there is any food left in the storage room. Especially important is emergency dry bread.
The dry bread you found in our vaults is made with a special process. Each pack has all the vitamins you need for the day. But where did the rest of the food go? There was supposed to be enough available to keep you out of trouble for a few years...
-
confidential papers
Mr. Black
When the fog began to isolate the Sheriff's Department building, the records depository staff shredded the classified documents. Let's look for it and see if they were able to cut all the documents.
You found the shredder. You've got a stack of half-cut documents stuck inside. And some classified documents are on the floor...that's not a good sign. It means that some shadow cult thugs came in here and took a good look at the documents that escaped being cut.
-
simultaneous evacuation
Mr. Black
Let's split up. That way, we should be able to check out the security station headquarters quickly. See that floor plan over there? We'll meet at the red marker. That shows where the warning lights are. Find it and wait there.
All the other warning lights seem to have broken, but this one seems to have miraculously survived. This was the one I turned on just before the security station was engulfed by the fog. The warning beep sounded, the light switched on, and all those in the building began evacuating at once.
-
unexpected danger
Mr. Black
There is as much cause for concern here as there was that day when the fog suddenly swept into the Sheriff's Department building. The first person to report the fog that day was "station employee number 032. He was about to wash his hands when he noticed something unusual. Let's check out that faucet where it all started.
Station employee number 032 turned on this faucet and lo and behold, instead of water, fog came out. He sealed the faucet and came to me to report the situation, but it was too late. The fog was coming right up to us...
-
rising water (of river, lake, etc.)
Rayden Storke
Look for anything that looks suspicious. But then again, there are a large number of embarrassing items from the rich here! I see...the masked woman called herself a "designer. That means we should look for things related to the distortion of space. Let's examine the deformed jug over there.
This jug, and the water in it, move in very strange ways. But unfortunately, this does not seem to belong to the designer. When the "distortion" occurred, the water in several areas of this city acquired special properties. And it deformed the containers in which it was contained. This jug is probably one of them.
-
Legend of the Iron City
Lewis Capuchin
First, look for the prop mask used in one of the most famous silent films of all time, "Iron City". This film is called a masterpiece of expressionism. Please, please, please look for the robot mask.
The robot mask you found was used in "Iron City," one of the best silent films ever made. To make the robot suit, the actors had to lie in plaster for hours!
-
Narrative Sequence
Lewis Capuchin
This film is not yet edited. There are hours of footage of the defenders that must be edited to create a narrative. This is important so that the audience can wake up from their trance with ease. Please bring my editing tools.
Thank you very much. We now have all the editing tools we need. Now let's cut and connect the developed film... let's start with the middle section at the crossroads. And next is the climax and finally the ending...
-
condition of custody
Lewis Capuchin
Undeveloped film must be stored in a special cooling system or it will become unusable. Otherwise, it will become unusable. Do not open the container unless necessary, as the photosensitive emulsion covering the film is very sensitive. Look for a container with a film about the defender.
Is this the only "Z" container? The film number should be written there. I see... "7455". This is definitely the film we are looking for. This is the film we are looking for and we are going to put it in the projector! Let's take it out of the cooling container and develop it right away.

Train that cheats passengers
Conductor
I don't want to be alone to investigate the Fog Express. Thanks for embarking on the secret unraveling with me...Hey, what compartment is this creepy music coming from? I'm getting goosebumps just listening to it. There must be a portable phonograph somewhere nearby. Let's look for it!
Good thing they found the gramophone. Now hurry up and turn off this creepy music! Hey, what's going on here? There's no record, and yet it's making a sound. Could this sound be... the sound of fog? This train seems to be trying to deceive anyone who gets on it.
-
The Colors of Life
Lewis Capuchin
There is another way to kill the monster and get the audience safely out of the trance. You color your film beautifully. Bring aniline dyes.
I am so glad you found aniline dyes. Angelique, you know a lot about color. Please color the film while I do the editing. By the way, are you interested in acting? You have a great presence. It doesn't feel like we've met for the first time today...
-
The importance of organization
Lewis Capuchin
The comb allowed us to enter the storage area of undeveloped film. There are hundreds of meters of film stored here, but there is only one film that can stop the monster from running amok and save the people of the city. To find it, you will need a filing cabinet. Can you help us find it?
I see you found the filing cabinet. Thank you for your help. Now, what I'm looking for is a documentary film about the emergence of the defenders and the banishment of monsters, located in the third section, under "Z." I believe the film number was 745... oh, I'm stumped. The last digit is missing! I'm going to have a hard time finding it.
-
The Secret Passage
Lewis Capuchin
The undeveloped film is kept in a special hiding place that only Augustine and I can open. The murderer would not have been able to enter there. Please, bring Augustine's comb. It has a fern leaf design. I will show you why it will help you stop the monster from running amok.
This comb was a gift to my wife when the movie theater first opened. This was before the "warping" happened. At that time, I promised my wife. Someday I will win the Best Documentary Award. This comb can be used as a key. And the stash of undeveloped film can only be opened with this comb.
-
Unexpected obstacles
Lewis Capuchin
What a mess! I can't get the film out because the monster is blocking the entrance to the vault. Oh, I am overwhelmed with negative emotions. In times like this...yes! When I made the projector, I also made a device to neutralize emotions. Could you please find it?
This emotion neutralizing device was created in case a very sensitive person came to the theater and was too strongly affected by this projector. Let's use this against the monster...it worked! Now we can put it in the film vault.
-
strike at the root of something
Lewis Capuchin
It is dangerous to turn off or attempt to repair the projector right now. It could put your audience in terrible danger for just a little while. When this happens, the only thing to do is to cut off the root of the problem. Let's examine the film that the culprit set in the projector.
It appears that the only film that has been burned is the film that was there before. This means that the only film that is creating the illusion of a monster is the film that the culprit put in. Wait for this to be finished and remove it. Look for the next film to be reproduced in the vault.
-
the power of the silver screen (movies)
Lewis Capuchin
The fog certainly increased the projector's capacity, but that doesn't mean that the images can't pop up in the real world... perhaps as a result of the audience's emotional response. Look for the emotion meter. I created one for this projector. With it, you will be able to see what emotions the audience was experiencing.
According to this emotion meter, the audience was in a terrible panic. The various negative emotions they were feeling acted on the projector. The emotions were so strong that the audience fell into a trance. We must free them from this nightmare as soon as possible.
-
Fog Mechanism
Lewis Capuchin
This projector is a very complex and delicate device. The slightest damage could create a serious problem...for example, the creation of a monster illusion. Carefully remove the side panels and examine the central structure of the projector. There may be something wrong there.
Look at this gear. Do you see the flickering? I have seen it before. This is a sign that it has been affected by the fog energy. So Augustine was right. The fog increased the capacity of the projector. Now, there is one more thing I would like to look into.
-
Colorful Emotions
Lewis Capuchin
This projector was made with the help of a friend who is a member of the Goken Guardians. With it, the audience can experience the movie as if it were real. But what on earth happened? Why did these terrifying monsters jump out of the screen? Perhaps it is a visual problem. Let's examine the color filter.
Color filters affect the overall mood of a film. Color has a very important influence on people's psychology. But there is nothing particularly unusual about these filters. This means that the monster's illusion was not created by a visual problem. However, it is very possible that these filters may have exacerbated the situation. This is a color that stirs up anxiety.
-
Amateur criminal
Lewis Capuchin
Naturally, I did not immediately understand what was happening. It was only when I noticed the smell of smoke that I finally understood what the murderer had done. The smoke was coming from the film in the projector, which had been replaced in a messy way. It almost caught fire, but we were able to extinguish it with liquid nitrogen from a container. Look for it.
Liquid nitrogen is ideal for extinguishing a film that is on fire. The fact that the film in the projector cannot even be changed properly means that the culprit is someone who is not familiar with film equipment. Perhaps it is a rival film vendor plotting to ruin the premiere screening.
-
Weapons of Crime
Lewis Capuchin
I will prove that I am not responsible for the monsters terrorizing the people of the city. I told you that I was attacked by a criminal. I was hit on the head at that time, and the trophy that was used as the murder weapon should still be in the projection room. Would you please find it?
This trophy was presented to me for my extensive expertise. It is very important! And yet, the murderer has tarnished it. He hit me with it, knocked me out, and then released an apparition of the monster into the city to terrorize the residents.
-
The Power of Habit
Lewis Capuchin
During the preview, I was in the projection room and Augustine was in the hall. I remember the projector looked strange. My wife sat in seat 17. She always sits there.
See, I told you so. She sat in seat #17. It was her custom to sit there. I would never let my wife go there because I knew the hall was dangerous. Please, please help her!
-
physical evidence
Lewis Capuchin
Do you still need proof that it was not me who created the monster illusion? I invented a special eyepiece. It records every film I watch with it on, and it is a very useful tool during the editing process. If you look at that eyepiece, you will know that I am not up to anything.
If you examine this eyepiece, you will see that the last movie I saw was about the opening of the airship dock in the Upper City. That was an event that brought a lot of life to this city. So we were going to show that documentary film at the premiere screening. It's a film that has nothing to do with Monster.
-
Vague goals
Lewis Capuchin
There was an incident at this movie theater. Someone broke in, attacked me and caused this mess. At first I thought the attacker was after Augustine's necklace with a piece of anti-fog crystal... but the necklace is still here. Here, look at this.
Augustine's necklace is decorated with pieces of anti-fog crystal. Contrary to my expectations, it seems that it was not this necklace that the killer wanted. However, there is nothing else of value here except for the necklace. There is only the film... My wife and I are documentary filmmakers who document the life of the city.
-
the most important room
Carlos Light
I believe that it is not an unusual device used in this hall, but an invention of the Five Wise Guardians. Why didn't I immediately think of the story about that legendary projector? It is located in the projection room, which has an elaborate lock on it. Let's find the key.
This is the key to a true filmmaker. You see, there is a light-sensitive section that resembles film. To open the projection chamber, the key must be placed in the keyhole and then the correct amount of light must be shone here.
-
Their signs that still remain
Carlos Light
I remember... it was known before the "distortion" occurred that the Capuchins owned a rather unusual movie theater. The couple built the movie theater with the help of the Five Wise Guardians. The symbol of the Guardian Order is on the plaster of the ceiling. Check it out.
The Capuchins decorated the hall with their symbols in honor of the Five Wise Guardians who had helped them for so long with their inventions. It is only natural, when you think about it! Only the geniuses of the Five Wise Patrons could create a movie theater that creates illusions.
-
Ghostly Splendor
Detective
Hey, let's think of a way to make the costumes look a little more mysterious so that they don't stand out at the ball where the elite of other worlds gather. Ghosts and spirits have a paranormal glow to them. Wouldn't it look better if we added a shining cape to the costume?
You must have found a very fine cape! Your cape glows in the dark and looks like a real spirit. I'll add some crystal thread stitches to my cape as well.
-
the look of terror in one's eyes
Detective
I may have mentioned it before, but the spook has kind eyes. If a creature from another world looked at me that way, it would immediately know I was human. As Salem said, the ball of the immortals is not for us mortals to attend! Let's find the lens of fear while we still have time.
Put these lenses on and you've got the creepy eyes. It's enough to freak out even the most powerful otherworldly creatures. You would never guess that the one with such terrifying eyes is a human being.
-
Breath of ice
Detective
My partner, Martha, told me that there is a possibility that our warm breath could reveal that we are human. He said we should use a special stone that cools our breath in case of such a situation. Find me a stone in the afterlife!
Oh, you've already found the beyond stone. You beat me to it again! A stone that has been lying dormant in a hole in the ground for centuries? Now that you mention it, this stone gives off a weird cold air. If you put it on your wrist, your breath will soon become cold.
-
cold handshake
Detective
If Salem's invited guests find out we're human, we're in big trouble. I noticed when we shook hands, you have warm hands. If we don't, they might smell the warmth that is peculiar to humans. I'll get you some special gloves just in case.
These gloves are so slippery and cold, like real amphibians! These would hide the warmth of my hands perfectly. I can shake your hand without worrying about you revealing your true identity.
-
Inhuman Smell
Detective
Buddy, I can't wait to go to the Ball of the Immortals. But it would be bad if the invited guests from the other world were to find out that we are human. No, don't worry...I'm a pro at disguise. Come on, let's find some fearless perfume and use it to mask our human smell!
You've found the fearless perfume oil! Oh, how awful it smells... According to female hunters, monsters and otherworldly creatures can smell fear in humans. So, I put this on to mask it. I hope it works!
-
Treasures from China
Juliette
Rumor has it that in the Orient, possibly China, they have created a mixture called the Shandong lily. I hear it's in the City of Shadows, too. Please go get some for the greenhouse!
The santou lilies are beautiful. It's simple but very beautiful! And the fragrance is very strong! The rumors about this lily were true. I can see why the lily is considered the most magical flower in Asia. Lilies were also used in religious ceremonies.
-
auditory image
Carlos Light
A film called "Experienced as Real" was shown in this hall. It is no wonder that any of the devices here could have created illusions. How about that stereo system, for example? It is possible for sound to create illusions, you know.
It is as I thought. This is no ordinary stereo system. The sound is made to completely "envelop" the audience. It would have helped in creating the illusion of a monster...but it would not be the main device. It is not powerful enough to create illusions.
-
Hall of Illusion
Angelique
The audience fell into a trance when the apparition of the monster appeared... And it seems that this mysterious hall was equipped from the beginning with a function to make the apparition real. Do you see the film decorating the walls? That is no ordinary film. Take a closer look at this frame.
Do you see it? This film shows a cat, but after you watch it for a while, it turns into a bee. This is an illusion. Perhaps the Capuchins showed a similar film here with monsters in it... but how on earth did the monsters jump off the screen?
-
A trap set
Vera
This screen appears to be pitch black, but this is where the phantom of the monster jumped out and put the audience into a trance. Maybe there are other external factors...let's find out a little more about this white hole. Take, for example, this ad. It says something about the hall.
Yes, this is it. It says that at Whitehall, you can "experience the movie as if it were real. And it says that this is the only place where such an experience is possible. If this is referring to the apparitions, then the monsters were created by one of the many devices in this hall. Let's examine everything here.
-
Safe hands
Vera
We're almost to the screen. But be careful. The number of monsters is increasing. Wait... if I'm not mistaken, there's a monster stuck in a chair over there. Look, all you can see is a hand! Let's hurry and check it out while the monster is stuck.
The monster hand was just an illusion! Yes, like all the monsters here. Somehow I had a feeling it was, but it was so real... But if it's just an illusion, there's nothing to fear. Let's examine the hall and find out how the monster's illusion came to be.
-
The Light of Another World
Carlos Light
The number of monsters in these halls continues to grow. Where in the world do they come from? Even if I wanted to know that, I can't help it if it is so dark. There is a strange light at the end of the hall. Let's turn it on. That way we should be able to get closer to the screen while the monsters are distracted by it.
I turned on the lights as much as I could, but unfortunately the monsters did not respond. It is very strange, but now is not the time to ponder the behavior of the monsters. We have to think of a way to get to the screen without them noticing.
