UI Quest Quest Description

It turns out that the missing young detective was investigating a mysterious case on Watatsumi Island. According to him, something vital is missing on this island. What could it be?

The Camp's Secret[]

(Talk to Heizou before investigating the goods)
Media:vo lyycop001 1903904 heizou 01.ogg Shikanoin Heizou: So, have you found anything?
Icon Dialogue Talk I'm about to start looking.
Media:vo lyycop001 1903904 heizou 02.ogg Shikanoin Heizou: Good, better get a move on. I've already noticed a few things of interest. Let's meet back here later.
(Investigate the Sango Pearl)
Media:vo lyycop001 1903905 paimon 01.ogg Paimon: Ooh! What's this shiny thing? Oh! It's a Sango Pearl!
(Investigate the Crystal Marrow)
Media:vo lyycop001 1903906 paimon 01.ogg Paimon: Hey, isn't this Crystal Marrow?
(Talk to Heizou)
Media:vo lyycop001 1903905 heizou 01.ogg Shikanoin Heizou: So, have you found anything?
Icon Dialogue Talk We found a bunch of Crystal Marrow and Sango Pearls.
Media:vo lyycop001 1903905 heizou 02.ogg Shikanoin Heizou: Yes, I've found pretty much the same, and there really are a lot.
Media:vo lyycop001 1903905 paimon 02.ogg Paimon: Aren't these all super expensive? Ohh, these must be the valuable things that went missing from the island! That's it, the Nobushi must've stolen them all!
Media:vo lyycop001 1903905 heizou 03.ogg Shikanoin Heizou: Haha... I don't know if I'd go THAT far. The Nobushi would be very hard-pressed to find many opportunities to get their hands on commodities like these.
Media:vo lyycop001 1903905 paimon 03.ogg Paimon: Huh? What do you mean? Did the Nobushi gather all this themselves?
Media:vo lyycop001 1903905 heizou 04.ogg Shikanoin Heizou: No, that's unlikely. Crystal Marrow is a rare material for crafting weapons and Sango Pearls are an even more precious commodity.
Media:vo lyycop001 1903905 heizou 05.ogg Shikanoin Heizou: Here's what I think. Due to Watatsumi's poor soil, the island's economy is quite fragile and heavily reliant on the trade of these special resources.
Media:vo lyycop001 1903905 heizou 06.ogg Shikanoin Heizou: So, it's absolutely vital that they keep them under lock and key and well out of the Nobushi's reach. Which means, they got lucky with a huge batch like this... my guess is they ambushed a caravan.
Media:vo lyycop001 1903905 heizou 07.ogg Shikanoin Heizou: If we go ask around at the Sangonomiya Shrine, we can find out if there have been any recent instances of caravans being plundered...
Icon Dialogue Talk I know someone at the shrine. Follow me.
Media:vo lyycop001 1903905 heizou 08.ogg Shikanoin Heizou: Perfect, I knew you'd be a huge help.
Media:vo lyycop001 1903905 paimon 04.ogg Paimon: Heh, well duh! The Traveler is Paimon's companion, after all.

(Go to Sangonomiya Shrine and talk to Shibata)
Media:vo lyycop001 1903907 shibata 01.ogg Shibata: Captain! I see you've found the detective.
Media:vo lyycop001 1903907 heizou 01.ogg Shikanoin Heizou: Watatsumi Island sure is a beautiful place! I don't think I could ever leave.
Media:vo lyycop001 1903907 shibata 02.ogg Shibata: Haha, you can stay as long as you like, granted you don't cause any trouble, that is. Her Excellency has stated that all friendly visitors are welcome.
Icon Dialogue Talk I'd like to know whether any merchants or caravans have recently reported incidents of stolen goods.
Media:vo lyycop001 1903907 shibata 03.ogg Shibata: Incidents of stolen goods? Not that I'm aware of... Her Excellency has recently launched several measures to boost the economy, including the development of trade routes and establishing our own caravans.
Media:vo lyycop001 1903907 shibata 04.ogg Shibata: Troops have also been deployed to protect them, so it is only reasonable to assume that the current trade routes are already very safe. Any looting or theft would be practically unthinkable.
Media:vo lyycop001 1903907 heizou 02.ogg Shikanoin Heizou: That's strange... then where did the Nobushi get those goods from?
Media:vo lyycop001 1903907 shibata 05.ogg Shibata: Huh? You mean you found goods of unknown origin?
Media:vo lyycop001 1903907 paimon 01.ogg Paimon: Yep, and it's all Sango Pearls and Crystal Marrow, so we know it's local!
Media:vo lyycop001 1903907 shibata 06.ogg Shibata: Could there really have been a theft that hasn't been reported? That shouldn't be the case... Well, perhaps you could go ask Todoroki.
Media:vo lyycop001 1903907 shibata 07.ogg Shibata: He's responsible for the caravans and is usually in the village at night preparing the goods. If something has happened, he should know about it.
Media:vo lyycop001 1903907 heizou 03.ogg Shikanoin Heizou: Great, thank you for all the info. (TravelerTraveler), let's go.
Media:vo lyycop001 1903907 gorou 01.ogg Gorou: Hey, (TravelerTraveler)! It's been a while, I've missed you. Why didn't you inform me that you'd be coming over today?
Media:vo lyycop001 1903907 shibata 08.ogg Shibata: Ah, General Gorou!
Media:vo lyycop001 1903907 gorou 02.ogg Gorou: You're dismissed, Shibata. You may go about your other duties while I catch up with the Traveler.
Media:vo lyycop001 1903907 shibata 09.ogg Shibata: Yes, General Gorou!
Media:vo lyycop001 1903907 gorou 03.ogg Gorou: I overheard you discussing a case of stolen goods, is that right?
Media:vo lyycop001 1903907 paimon 02.ogg Paimon: That's right! We found a lot of Watatsumi's valuable products in a Nobushi camp!
You give the items you found at the Nobushi camp to Gorou.
Media:vo lyycop001 1903907 gorou 04.ogg Gorou: I see, so you've come to ask if we know of any relevant cases, well...
Media:vo lyycop001 1903907 gorou 05.ogg Gorou: *sigh* I'm ashamed to say that... yes, the caravans have been plundered, and not just once, I'm afraid.
Media:vo lyycop001 1903907 gorou 06.ogg Gorou: We had already dispatched additional forces to protect the caravans, yet the crooks still managed to get away with the goods...
Media:vo lyycop001 1903907 heizou 04.ogg Shikanoin Heizou: And you're concerned that if this kind of news were to get out, it would undermine the confidence of other caravans, so you didn't make it public and instead kept the news to only a select few.
Media:vo lyycop001 1903907 gorou 07.ogg Gorou: That's correct. I never expected you to be so concerned about Watatsumi's affairs, Detective Heizou.
Media:vo lyycop001 1903907 heizou 05.ogg Shikanoin Heizou: Hehe. Just a force of habit, really. As a detective, I notice these kinds of things.
Media:vo lyycop001 1903907 paimon 03.ogg Paimon: Oh, so you two already know each other?
Media:vo lyycop001 1903907 gorou 08.ogg Gorou: Actually, I've only heard of Detective Heizou from the soldiers' reports. We've never met in person.
Media:vo lyycop001 1903907 heizou 06.ogg Shikanoin Heizou: Ah, darn it, you're right! Now that you mention it, I've been on Watatsumi Island all this time and still haven't properly introduced myself! Man alive, please forgive me!
Media:vo lyycop001 1903907 heizou 07.ogg Shikanoin Heizou: It's a pleasure to meet you, General Gorou. I'm Shikanoin Heizou of the Tenryou Commission.
Media:vo lyycop001 1903907 gorou 09.ogg Gorou: Yes, it's a pleasure to meet you, too. I'd like to express my gratitude to you for stepping in and helping recover those goods.
Media:vo lyycop001 1903907 heizou 08.ogg Shikanoin Heizou: Don't mention it. You never know what you'll find when you're out for a stroll.
Media:vo lyycop001 1903907 heizou 09.ogg Shikanoin Heizou: But, if the source of the problem is not addressed, I'm afraid this sort of situation will continue cropping up for you.
Media:vo lyycop001 1903907 gorou 10.ogg Gorou: Yes, of course. Not only have we reassured the affected caravans, but we also dispatched personnel to investigate the culprits.
Media:vo lyycop001 1903907 gorou 11.ogg Gorou: Their reports indicated that the stolen goods were being delivered to a merchant of the International Trade Association named Godot.
Media:vo lyycop001 1903907 gorou 12.ogg Gorou: It all seems pretty unusual. We suspect that there are bigger players behind Godot, and that their target is none other than Watatsumi Island's valuable resources.
Media:vo lyycop001 1903907 gorou 13.ogg Gorou: But unfortunately, it would be difficult for us to investigate further, given that...
Media:vo lyycop001 1903907 heizou 10.ogg Shikanoin Heizou: Given that Ritou, the island where the International Trade Association is located, is not part of your territory. Yes, they have cleverly picked their base of operations.
Media:vo lyycop001 1903907 gorou 14.ogg Gorou: I can see you catch on quickly, Detective Heizou.
Media:vo lyycop001 1903907 heizou 11.ogg Shikanoin Heizou: Hehe. It's my guess that you're telling us this because you're going to ask us to assist you in finding who's behind all this, right?
Media:vo lyycop001 1903907 gorou 15.ogg Gorou: Haha, you're always thinking one step ahead. Yes, those were exactly my intentions... and of course, we will prepare a generous reward for you.
Media:vo lyycop001 1903907 gorou 16.ogg Gorou: With the recent end of the war, trade and commerce have now become an important component of Watatsumi Island's development. Ensuring safety of the trade routes is critical, and we can't afford any further incidents.
Media:vo lyycop001 1903907 gorou 17.ogg Gorou: So will you please help Watatsumi Island, Detective Heizou, (TravelerTraveler)?
Media:vo lyycop001 1903907 heizou 12a.ogg Media:vo lyycop001 1903907 heizou 12b.ogg Shikanoin Heizou: I'm willing to assist, but it all depends on what (TravelerTraveler) wishes.
Icon Dialogue Talk As the captain of Swordfish II, it's my duty to help Watatsumi.
Icon Dialogue Talk Gorou is a good friend, we should do this for him regardless of the rewards.
Media:vo lyycop001 1903907 gorou 18.ogg Gorou: Great! With both Detective Heizou and the Traveler on the case, I'm sure it'll be solved in no time.
Media:vo lyycop001 1903907 gorou 19.ogg Gorou: The situation is now in your capable hands. I look forward to hearing your report when you get back.
Media:vo lyycop001 1903907 heizou 13.ogg Shikanoin Heizou: Alright, we'll take care of it. (TravelerTraveler), let's go discuss where to head from here.

A Time for Whispers[]

(Talk to Gorou again)
Media:vo lyycop001 1903907 gorou 20.ogg Gorou: (TravelerTraveler), exercise caution when traveling to Ritou. If you come across any unexpected dangers, retreat first. Your safety is the priority. You must approach this issue with a long-term strategy in mind.
(Go to a nearby location and talk to Heizou)
Media:vo lyycop001 1903908 paimon 01.ogg Paimon: Hey! Why are we talking way over here? You're not trying to get away from Gorou so he can't overhear us, are you?
Media:vo lyycop001 1903908 heizou 01.ogg Shikanoin Heizou: Very perceptive. Seems even Paimon has her moments.
Media:vo lyycop001 1903908 heizou 02.ogg Shikanoin Heizou: Let me ask you, do you believe in intuition?
Media:vo lyycop001 1903908 paimon 02.ogg Paimon: Huh? Intuition? Where are you going with this?
Media:vo lyycop001 1903908 heizou 03.ogg Shikanoin Heizou: My intuition tells me that General Gorou is lying.
Media:vo lyycop001 1903908 paimon 03.ogg Paimon: What!? How could you say that! Although he did seem a little on the serious side today... But Gorou's a good guy!
Media:vo lyycop001 1903908 heizou 04.ogg Shikanoin Heizou: Good people can be deceptive, too. After all, everyone has their secrets.
Icon Dialogue Talk What makes you say that?
Media:vo lyycop001 1903908 heizou 05.ogg Shikanoin Heizou: Well, in my opinion, the timing of his appearance was a little too coincidental.
Media:vo lyycop001 1903908 heizou 06.ogg Shikanoin Heizou: Sangonomiya's soldiers have been keeping an eye on me for the entire time I've been on Watatsumi Island, yet I had never seen General Gorou even once.
Media:vo lyycop001 1903908 heizou 07.ogg Shikanoin Heizou: But today he came out and met with us, and even commissioned us to investigate a case.
Media:vo lyycop001 1903908 paimon 04a.ogg Media:vo lyycop001 1903908 paimon 04b.ogg Paimon: Maybe that's because (TravelerTraveler) is here today, and Gorou thinks (‍hehe/sheshe‍)'s more capable.
Media:vo lyycop001 1903908 heizou 08.ogg Shikanoin Heizou: Really? Then that makes things even more peculiar. If there are powerful players behind this case, and he needs to draw upon external support, then he should have taken action sooner rather than wait until today.
Media:vo lyycop001 1903908 heizou 09.ogg Shikanoin Heizou: A more plausible explanation is that the items we discovered are linked with some unspeakable secret, and he had to intervene to prevent us from digging any deeper.
Media:vo lyycop001 1903908 heizou 10.ogg Shikanoin Heizou: Then he put up a smokescreen to mislead us. I surmise that investigating the merchant Godot on Ritou will yield no results.
Media:vo lyycop001 1903908 paimon 05.ogg Paimon: Whoa, are you serious? But this is all just a hunch you have, right?
Media:vo lyycop001 1903908 heizou 11.ogg Shikanoin Heizou: Actually, there is another key factor behind my reasoning, though you may not believe me.
Media:vo lyycop001 1903908 heizou 12.ogg Shikanoin Heizou: I sense something... special about Gorou.
Media:vo lyycop001 1903908 paimon 06.ogg Paimon: Something special?
Media:vo lyycop001 1903908 heizou 13.ogg Shikanoin Heizou: Yes. Whatever is missing on this island, I sense it in him...
Media:vo lyycop001 1903908 paimon 07.ogg Paimon: Wh—Wh—Whoa, hold it right there! Are you saying Gorou's a thief? As in, he took something valuable!?
Media:vo lyycop001 1903908 heizou 14.ogg Shikanoin Heizou: It's not that simple, I can't fully explain it... It's just my intuition.
Icon Dialogue Talk This certainly doesn't line up with the Gorou I know.
Media:vo lyycop001 1903908 heizou 15.ogg Shikanoin Heizou: Sure, I trust your judgment. But perhaps you're overlooking someone else — the true leader here.
Icon Dialogue Talk Alright, you've convinced me that there might be some secret here. What do we do?
Media:vo lyycop001 1903908 heizou 16.ogg Shikanoin Heizou: It's simple. We should just investigate whatever it is they're trying to hide from us. And what were we planning to do just before Gorou showed up?
Media:vo lyycop001 1903908 paimon 08.ogg Paimon: Hum, we were going to talk to the leader of the caravans. Oh yeah, someone named Todoroki!
Media:vo lyycop001 1903908 heizou 17.ogg Shikanoin Heizou: Bingo. There's no time to lose, let's go talk to this Todoroki.
(Proceed to An Unexpected Discovery)
Icon Dialogue Talk No, you're overthinking this. We should go to Ritou and investigate this Godot character.
Media:vo lyycop001 1903908 heizou 18.ogg Shikanoin Heizou: Haha, being too suspicious, am I? Well, even suspicious people have their duty to uphold...
Media:vo lyycop001 1903908 heizou 19.ogg Shikanoin Heizou: Haha, in which case, (TravelerTraveler), I'll stay here and get back to you once I figure out what the secret of this place is.
Hangout Event Ended: Heizou promises that you shall meet again before leaving...

An Unexpected Discovery[]

Icon Quest Step Step Description

It turns out that the missing young detective was investigating a mysterious case on Watatsumi Island. According to him, something vital is missing on this island. What could it be?
(Wait until night (20:00–24:00))
(Head to Bourou Village and follow Todoroki and Tokuda)
Media:vo lyycop001 1905501 tokuda 01.ogg Tokuda: Todoroki, the shipment has arrived and is ready for inspection.
Media:vo lyycop001 1905501 todoroku 01.ogg Todoroki: Good, let's go.
Media:vo lyycop001 1905501 paimon 01.ogg Paimon: Hey, it's Todo... mmph!
Media:vo lyycop001 1905501 heizou 01.ogg Shikanoin Heizou: Shh! Keep quiet. Let's follow him and see where he leads us.
(If the player gets too far away)
Media:vo lyycop001 1905502 heizou 01.ogg Shikanoin Heizou: Man alive! We strayed too far and now we've lost him.
(Restarts stealth sequence)
(If the player gets too close)
Media:vo lyycop001 1905503 heizou 01.ogg Shikanoin Heizou: Uh-oh! We got too close and he noticed us!
(Restarts stealth sequence)
(Listen in on Todoroki and Tokuda's conversation)
Media:vo lyycop001 1905504 tokuda 01.ogg Tokuda: Your intel was spot on. When we arrived, the Nobushi were all still asleep, haha.
Media:vo lyycop001 1905504 tokuda 02.ogg Tokuda: We captured them all, and the goods were retrieved and brought back here.
Media:vo lyycop001 1905504 todoroku 01.ogg Todoroki: I'll take a look. Hmm... Everything seems in order, good work.
Media:vo lyycop001 1905504 tokuda 03.ogg Tokuda: It's nothing. Thanks to the efforts of your caravan, the price of grain in the village has decreased.
Media:vo lyycop001 1905504 masashi 01.ogg Masashi: That's right, and who would have thought that the injuries we sustained during the war would have such a lingering effect on our bodies. But thankfully, you also brought back some life-saving medicine.
Media:vo lyycop001 1905504 todoroku 02.ogg Todoroki: Things are improving thanks to the help from those up top. By the way, what is the state of the village's inventory?
Media:vo lyycop001 1905504 todoroku 03.ogg Todoroki: Make sure that it's confirmed tonight, I have to leave tomorrow morning after I go to the Sangonomiya Shrine and get instructions from General Gorou.
Media:vo lyycop001 1905504 masashi 02.ogg Masashi: Don't worry. We've already prepared the list. Just follow us.

(Todoroki and Tokuda leave)
Media:vo lyycop001 1905505 paimon 01.ogg Paimon: Huh? The soldiers from Sangonomiya seized the Nobushi's stolen goods? But didn't Gorou say all the stolen goods were headed to the International Trade Association?
Media:vo lyycop001 1905505 heizou 01.ogg Shikanoin Heizou: And Todoroki said he'll get instructions from Gorou tomorrow. Interesting... It appears these seized goods were never stolen, there's something else behind all this.
Media:vo lyycop001 1905505 heizou 02.ogg Shikanoin Heizou: Now's our chance to look around and see if we can find any leads.
(Talk to Heizou)
Media:vo lyycop001 1905506 heizou 01.ogg Shikanoin Heizou: Alright, let's see what we can come up with here.
(Investigate the Glaze Lilies)
Media:vo lyycop001 1905508 paimon 01.ogg Paimon: Glaze Lilies! What are these doing here? Shouldn't it be Crystal Marrow or something...
(Investigate the tightly packed box)
Media:vo lyycop001 1905509 paimon 01.ogg Paimon: This box is packed so tight, it looks like it could burst. Let's see what's inside.
Media:vo lyycop001 1905509 paimon 02.ogg Paimon: Huh? What are all these plants and flowers? Oh, there's a small note here.
Torn Bill: (A torn bill. The handwriting has been smudged by water stains, making it difficult to read. Only a faint outline of the words "Foreign Trade Association" can be seen at the signature.)
(Investigate the Qingxin)
Media:vo lyycop001 1905507 paimon 01.ogg Paimon: Whoa! Qingxin! Paimon was expecting to find Sango Pearls...

Middleman[]

(Talk to Heizou)
Media:vo lyycop001 1905506 heizou 02.ogg Shikanoin Heizou: So, did you find anything?
Media:vo lyycop001 1905506 paimon 01.ogg Paimon: Whoa, look at all the Qingxin! And Glaze Lilies, too! There are also tons of other plants and flowers Paimon doesn't know here. Weird...
Media:vo lyycop001 1905506 heizou 03.ogg Shikanoin Heizou: These are valuable raw ingredients for producing medicine. If these few crates were to be imported from Ritou, the price would be jaw-dropping.
Media:vo lyycop001 1905506 heizou 04.ogg Shikanoin Heizou: On top of that, these items seem to lack a tax clearance certificate, meaning that they were most likely smuggled. Yes, very interesting... Now where did the Nobushi get these goods?
Media:vo lyycop001 1905506 heizou 05.ogg Shikanoin Heizou: How about you? Did you find anything else?
Icon Dialogue Talk There is a bill here addressed to the "Foreign Trade Association."
(+1 Heart)
Media:vo lyycop001 1905506 heizou 06.ogg Shikanoin Heizou: Foreign Trade Association? I've never heard of such an organization in Ritou... and if it's regarding foreign trade, then smuggling is an even more likely possibility.
Icon Dialogue Talk Unfortunately, no.
Media:vo lyycop001 1905506 heizou 07.ogg Shikanoin Heizou: Really? Hmm, I see...
Media:vo lyycop001 1905506 heizou 08.ogg Shikanoin Heizou: Alright. In which case, I have a rough hypothesis, first we...
Media:vo lyycop001 1905506 tokuda 01.ogg Tokuda: Huh! Who goes there!?
Media:vo lyycop001 1905506 paimon 02.ogg Paimon: Oh no! We've been spotted!
Media:vo lyycop001 1905506 masashi 01.ogg Masashi: Huh? Wait, Captain... is that you!?
Media:vo lyycop001 1905506 tokuda 02.ogg Tokuda: Oh! So it's you, Captain. You had me worried there, we almost mistook you for bandits, haha!
Media:vo lyycop001 1905506 tokuda 03.ogg Tokuda: Captain, do you remember us? During the war, I was in the field hospital with Masashi. Teppei brought you to see us, and helped find medicine for us.
Media:vo lyycop001 1905506 masashi 02.ogg Masashi: Hey c'mon now! The captain wouldn't forget!
Media:vo lyycop001 1905506 masashi 03.ogg Masashi: I gotta tell you, Captain, we all miss you. We haven't seen you ever since the end of the war.
Media:vo lyycop001 1905506 masashi 04.ogg Masashi: When we heard that you were coming here, we just assumed you were only going to see General Gorou and Her Excellency. The guys are all really hoping to see you.
Icon Dialogue Talk Ahem... Uh, how have you all been?
Media:vo lyycop001 1905506 masashi 05.ogg Masashi: We're fine! You don't have to worry about us, Captain.
Media:vo lyycop001 1905506 tokuda 04.ogg Tokuda: No, you're not fine. Captain, you may not be aware, but Masashi previously fainted on the front lines. The doctor thought that it might be a neurological condition caused by overstimulated emotions. It's pretty serious.
Media:vo lyycop001 1905506 tokuda 05.ogg Tokuda: According to the doctor, if it hadn't been for the medication he's been taking, he would have developed dementia... and that was assuming the best-case scenario!
Media:vo lyycop001 1905506 masashi 06.ogg Masashi: You're one to talk! Don't forget why I fainted in the first place. It's because I heard that you got yourself killed by an arrow. I couldn't handle all the emotion.
Media:vo lyycop001 1905506 masashi 07.ogg Masashi: Later, I found out that he'd been shot in the buttocks and it was only a mild injury. I had an emotional breakdown for nothing!
Media:vo lyycop001 1905506 tokuda 06.ogg Tokuda: What do you mean for nothing? I got shot not by one, but two arrows... in a row! The first arrow was to the left cheek, and the second arrow was also to the left!

Media:vo lyycop001 1905506 masashi 09.ogg Masashi: Oh, these goods were all seized from the hands of Nobushi and Treasure Hoarders. Todoroki was the one who provided us with the intel.
Media:vo lyycop001 1905506 masashi 10.ogg Masashi: He mentioned there were bandits here and there, so we went and took care of them while also confiscating the goods.
Media:vo lyycop001 1905506 tokuda 09.ogg Tokuda: By the way, Captain, you still haven't met Todoroki, have you? He's the one we're working for now.
Media:vo lyycop001 1905506 tokuda 10.ogg Tokuda: Her Excellency recently announced plans to stimulate the economy and created the caravans, with Todoroki at the helm.
Media:vo lyycop001 1905506 masashi 11.ogg Masashi: Yeah, he's proven to be quite capable. Even though he was just a farmer before, he's now successfully running the caravans.
Media:vo lyycop001 1905506 masashi 12.ogg Masashi: And his two sons were also our brothers in arms, both received a special medal of honor from General Gorou, which is quite remarkable, don't you think?

Media:vo lyycop001 1905506 tokuda 14.ogg Tokuda: I can't even imagine trying to maintain and feed an army like we did during the war.

(Go with Heizou to where the inmates are imprisoned)
Media:vo lyycop001 1905510 heizou 01.ogg Shikanoin Heizou: Are you still a little confused? Haha, let me help connect the dots, this whole thing was actually quite similar to a case I once worked on previously.
Media:vo lyycop001 1905510 heizou 02.ogg Shikanoin Heizou: It was a case involving the trade of prohibited items, and they employed an old trick to execute the deal.
Media:vo lyycop001 1905510 heizou 03.ogg Shikanoin Heizou: The culprit would first go strolling down the street, until they knocked over a pedestrian on purpose, using the opportunity to slip the prohibited goods into the unknowing pedestrian's pocket.
Media:vo lyycop001 1905510 heizou 04.ogg Shikanoin Heizou: Once the intended recipient got word of it, they would find an excuse to harass the same pedestrian before stealing the goods from the pocket.
Media:vo lyycop001 1905510 heizou 05.ogg Shikanoin Heizou: The pedestrian had no idea what happened from start to finish, and unknowingly functioned as a "middleman"... So, can you guess who the middleman was in this case?

Confrontation[]

(Question Todoroki)
Media:vo lyycop001 1905509 todoroku 01.ogg Todoroki: Ahem... uh, who are you?
Media:vo lyycop001 1905509 heizou 01.ogg Shikanoin Heizou: Hello, Todoroki. I'm Shikanoin Heizou, special detective of the Tenryou Commission.
Media:vo lyycop001 1905509 heizou 02.ogg Shikanoin Heizou: I believe you've been manipulating large-scale illegal trades for some time now. Mind if we talk about that for a bit?
Media:vo lyycop001 1905509 todoroku 02.ogg Todoroki: You can't just go around spewing such nonsense, young man.
Media:vo lyycop001 1905509 heizou 03.ogg Shikanoin Heizou: And what if I'm not talking nonsense?
Media:vo lyycop001 1905509 todoroku 03.ogg Todoroki: Ridiculous! I don't have time to listen to this. Get out of here, you little brat!
Media:vo lyycop001 1905509 heizou 04.ogg Shikanoin Heizou: Haha, I know I'm on the younger side compared to you, Todoroki. So I'm sure you must have heard the old saying:
Media:vo lyycop001 1905509 heizou 05.ogg Shikanoin Heizou: "Off the scale, some goods only weigh a couple pounds. But on the scale, they weigh more than a thousand."
Media:vo lyycop001 1905509 heizou 06.ogg Shikanoin Heizou: So the question is, do you want to put your goods on the scale or not?
Media:vo lyycop001 1905509 todoroku 04.ogg Todoroki: Wh—What are you trying to say?
Media:vo lyycop001 1905509 heizou 07.ogg Shikanoin Heizou: Well, nothing. All I want to hear is you personally confirming what we already know to be the truth.
Media:vo lyycop001 1905509 todoroku 05.ogg Todoroki: Argh... Masashi! Tokuda! Arrest these people!
Media:vo lyycop001 1905509 masashi 01.ogg Masashi: Huh? Todoroki, what's wrong!?

Media:vo lyycop001 1905509 tokuda 02.ogg Tokuda: Captain? What are you doing...
Media:vo lyycop001 1905509 todoroku 06.ogg Todoroki: These crooks are trying to pry into the secrets of Watatsumi. We mustn't let them go!
Media:vo lyycop001 1905509 masashi 02.ogg Masashi: But uh, no... There must be some kind of misunderstanding. Todoroki...
Media:vo lyycop001 1905509 masashi 03.ogg Masashi: This is the captain of Swordfish II, one of our own, haha!
Media:vo lyycop001 1905509 todoroku 07.ogg Todoroki: It doesn't matter who they are. Remember what General Gorou told you? The long-term goal of Watatsumi is to revive its trade and commerce. And since you have been assigned to work with me, it's my orders that count around here!
Media:vo lyycop001 1905509 todoroku 08.ogg Todoroki: I don't care if they were your captain. Would you dare disobey orders!?
Media:vo lyycop001 1905509 tokuda 03.ogg Tokuda: I... Uh...
Media:vo lyycop001 1905509 masashi 04.ogg Masashi: What do we do?

Media:vo lyycop001 1905509 todoroku 10.ogg Todoroki: Alright, I see how it is. If you two won't do it, I will.
Media:vo lyycop001 1905509 heizou 08.ogg Shikanoin Heizou: I really hoped it wouldn't come to this... but, here we go.
Media:vo lyycop001 1905509 gorou 01.ogg Gorou: Wait! Everyone, stand down!
Media:vo lyycop001 1905509 masashi 05.ogg Masashi: General Gorou! You're here!
Media:vo lyycop001 1905509 gorou 02.ogg Gorou: My apologies, (TravelerTraveler), and Detective Heizou. I wasn't telling you the truth.
Media:vo lyycop001 1905509 gorou 03a.ogg Media:vo lyycop001 1905509 gorou 03b.ogg Gorou: Todoroki, (TravelerTraveler) here is the hero who saved Watatsumi Island. Without (‍himhim/herher‍), Watatsumi Island would never have found the peace it has today. We mustn't raise our weapons against (‍himhim/herher‍).
Media:vo lyycop001 1905509 todoroku 11.ogg Todoroki: How could you be so naive, General Gorou...
Media:vo lyycop001 1905509 todoroku 12.ogg Todoroki: If we let them go free, then who's to say that the Shogunate won't come after us tomorrow? If the Shogunate decides to investigate, we won't be able to hide the truth.
Media:vo lyycop001 1905509 gorou 04.ogg Gorou: I wouldn't allow them to take you, Todoroki.
Media:vo lyycop001 1905509 todoroku 13.ogg Todoroki: *sigh*... Let's not kid ourselves. If going to jail could solve the problem, I would go and turn myself in to the Tenryou Commission right now.
Media:vo lyycop001 1905509 todoroku 14.ogg Todoroki: The question is, what are we going to do with the goods? Will you be able to keep them? Not to mention the chance of astronomical fines! Can you afford that?
Media:vo lyycop001 1905509 todoroku 15.ogg Todoroki: Gorou, we both know that Watatsumi Island is a barren land. Plant a hundred radishes here and maybe only three would grow, and those three combined would still be smaller than just one carrot imported from elsewhere.
Media:vo lyycop001 1905509 todoroku 16.ogg Todoroki: You can't grow food or medicinal herbs here. And if we buy them from Ritou, we pay exorbitant taxes.
Media:vo lyycop001 1905509 todoroku 17.ogg Todoroki: My eldest son died fighting on the battlefield. But do you know how my second son died? He died because there was no medicine to treat him!
Media:vo lyycop001 1905509 todoroku 18.ogg Todoroki: You awarded both of them medals of honor, but did that save their lives? Can medals heal Tokuda and Masashi's wounds?
Media:vo lyycop001 1905509 todoroku 19.ogg Todoroki: No, it was the medicine that I got that saved their lives!
Media:vo lyycop001 1905509 todoroku 20.ogg Todoroki: If we detain them today, the Shogunate will never know what we've done. Besides, we're only a few months away now...
Media:vo lyycop001 1905509 todoroku 21.ogg Todoroki: We will set them free once the new bill is passed in just a few months, and everything will be okay. None of what happened here will be mentioned again, and life on Watatsumi Island will continue to improve.
Media:vo lyycop001 1905509 gorou 05.ogg Gorou: I understand, Todoroki, but they won't—
Media:vo lyycop001 1905509 todoroku 22.ogg Todoroki: I can trust the Traveler won't, but the detective here is a Tenryou Commission officer!
Media:vo lyycop001 1905509 todoroku 23.ogg Todoroki: *sigh*... Forget it! You're the general, and I'm just a radish farmer...
Icon Dialogue Talk Wait, what is the bill you just mentioned?
Media:vo lyycop001 1905509 gorou 06.ogg Gorou: ...
Media:vo lyycop001 1905509 gorou 07.ogg Gorou: It's a new commodity tax bill currently being drafted by the Kanjou Commission. The bill exempts taxes on goods that are in short supply on Watatsumi Island.
Media:vo lyycop001 1905509 gorou 08.ogg Gorou: Once the bill is introduced, we'll be able to buy commodities that we need from regular marketplaces...
Media:vo lyycop001 1905509 heizou 09.ogg Shikanoin Heizou: Oh, I see! Man alive...
Media:vo lyycop001 1905509 heizou 10.ogg Shikanoin Heizou: I wish I had known sooner. Hehe, in that case, how about we put your fears at ease and I'll stick around here a little longer.
Media:vo lyycop001 1905509 heizou 11.ogg Shikanoin Heizou: You know, until the bill is introduced.
Media:vo lyycop001 1905509 todoroku 24.ogg Todoroki: Huh?
Media:vo lyycop001 1905509 gorou 09.ogg Gorou: Detective Heizou, are you saying that...
Media:vo lyycop001 1905509 todoroku 25.ogg Todoroki: You mean you are willing to stay here, young man?
Media:vo lyycop001 1905509 heizou 12.ogg Shikanoin Heizou: C'mon you two, what's with the strange looks?
Media:vo lyycop001 1905509 heizou 13.ogg Shikanoin Heizou: You've been keeping me under close surveillance, haven't you? Surely you must have noticed that, aside from being a detective, I am also an ordinary tourist who likes to enjoy good scenery?
Media:vo lyycop001 1905509 heizou 14.ogg Shikanoin Heizou: I believe that after the new commodity bill is passed, there will be more and more traffic between the two sides, and more and more people will be coming to visit Watatsumi Island.
Media:vo lyycop001 1905509 heizou 15.ogg Shikanoin Heizou: I have to take the opportunity now and enjoy this place while I still have it all to myself. Before long, tourists will start pouring in!
Media:vo lyycop001 1905509 gorou 10.ogg Gorou: Thank you, Detective Heizou, on behalf of the people of Watatsumi!
Media:vo lyycop001 1905509 heizou 16.ogg Shikanoin Heizou: My pleasure, but one good turn deserves another, does it not...
Media:vo lyycop001 1905509 gorou 11.ogg Gorou: Oh, you mean there's something you wish to request?
Media:vo lyycop001 1905509 heizou 17.ogg Shikanoin Heizou: I suppose you could say I'm from the Shogunate, but the Traveler next to me isn't.
Media:vo lyycop001 1905509 heizou 18a.ogg Media:vo lyycop001 1905509 heizou 18b.ogg Shikanoin Heizou: As far as I know, (‍hehe/sheshe‍) is planning to visit other nations soon, and it is unclear if (‍hehe/sheshe‍) will return to Narukami Island or not. Therefore, there's no need to limit (‍hishis/herher‍) freedom, right?

Media:vo lyycop001 1905512 gorou 08.ogg Gorou: She went to the Kanjou Commission to see Lady Yae — purportedly for a book review, but there were other items on the agenda, too. The meeting wasn't made public.
Media:vo lyycop001 1905512 gorou 09.ogg Gorou: Following her return, we began our attempts at boosting commercial activity, and it wasn't long before there was a push for a new commodity bill on Narukami Island...
Media:vo lyycop001 1905512 gorou 10.ogg Gorou: So, what do you make of it? Do you think Her Excellency knows about this?

(Go to a nearby location and talk to Heizou)
Media:vo lyycop001 1905511 heizou 01.ogg Shikanoin Heizou: Hey, there you are. Come here. Look, look! It's beautiful, isn't it? Watatsumi Island...
Media:vo lyycop001 1905511 heizou 02.ogg Shikanoin Heizou: It's remarkable how such a barren land can give life to such wonderful and stunning scenery.
Media:vo lyycop001 1905511 heizou 03.ogg Shikanoin Heizou: To be honest, I'm grateful to you for this trip. Before you arrived, I was running around like a headless chicken, haha.
Media:vo lyycop001 1905511 heizou 04.ogg Shikanoin Heizou: Even if I had happened to find out what was going on here, I wouldn't have been able to uncover any concrete information without you present.
Media:vo lyycop001 1905511 heizou 05.ogg Shikanoin Heizou: I'm just sorry that I promised I'd accompany you back, it appears that I won't be able to do so for the time being. So please, cover for me in the meantime, okay? Haha.
Icon Dialogue Talk Have you really decided to keep the whole thing a secret?
Media:vo lyycop001 1905511 heizou 06.ogg Shikanoin Heizou: Ah, it's all in the past now, let's just chalk it up as an intriguing experience I had on my trip here. Besides, that's not what I wanted to investigate anyway.
Icon Dialogue Talk So now you have the answer you were searching for?
Media:vo lyycop001 1905511 heizou 07.ogg Shikanoin Heizou: Yes, everyone you led me to and everything they said brought me closer to the answer, and now I finally get it.
Media:vo lyycop001 1905511 heizou 08.ogg Shikanoin Heizou: Watatsumi Island is an ancient land where the soil is poor and many crops do not grow, because it's lacking a certain thing.
Media:vo lyycop001 1905511 heizou 09.ogg Shikanoin Heizou: But what the inhabitants of this land do have is bravery. They were courageous enough to stand up and resist the gods, and accomplish what they knew could not be done... This is yet another instance in which that certain thing shines.
Media:vo lyycop001 1905511 heizou 10.ogg Shikanoin Heizou: That missing element... That certain thing... is what I sensed present in Gorou, Todoroki, Tokuda, and Masashi...
Media:vo lyycop001 1905511 heizou 11.ogg Shikanoin Heizou: Which is... the true vitality of this land.
Media:vo lyycop001 1905511 heizou 12.ogg Shikanoin Heizou: I guess I was mistaken when I declared that something was missing, that something from this island had evaporated into thin air... Because even something that evaporates is not gone. It's still there, just in a different state of being.
Media:vo lyycop001 1905511 heizou 13.ogg Shikanoin Heizou: When water is heated by fire, it evaporates and eventually finds its place in the sky. Similarly, when the land was harmed, its vitality evaporated and eventually found its place among the inhabitants.
Media:vo lyycop001 1905511 heizou 14.ogg Shikanoin Heizou: This is the final answer I've been searching for.
Media:vo lyycop001 1905511 heizou 15.ogg Shikanoin Heizou: Anyway, thanks again, (TravelerTraveler).
Media:vo lyycop001 1905511 heizou 16.ogg Shikanoin Heizou: You know, even though we've just met, I wish you could be my partner all the time. Haha, call me greedy, I guess.
Media:vo lyycop001 1905511 heizou 17.ogg Shikanoin Heizou: But of course, I know that's impossible. You have your own journey to complete.
Media:vo lyycop001 1905511 heizou 18.ogg Shikanoin Heizou: So I'll just keep doing what I can — hopefully keeping my memories from evaporating, safe and sound in my mind.
Media:vo lyycop001 1905511 heizou 19.ogg Shikanoin Heizou: That way, I'll always be able to remember these beautiful things, the beauty of Watatsumi Island, the people who are full of life and vitality... and you two, who were by my side.
