Location Observe Script
Oracle Research Institute
Research Institute Entrance

Small Fountain

In the sunlight, clear water columns rhythmically surge and retract in sync with light musical notes, repeating in a cycle.

You: What a small musical fountain...

You stand by the fountain, appreciating the water droplets dancing in the light music. But soon, you are drawn to something else.

You: (Huh? It seems like the melody of this fountain keeps repeating the same section...)

You: (Is it... 3re, 2fa? Could this be some special design?)


Bushes

There is a rustling sound coming from the bushes.

You: (What's inside?)

You approach the bushes, trying to figure out what's inside. Then...

A furry little animal suddenly darts out. Before you can react, it has already hopped away, disappearing into the distant bushes.

You: (A rabbit? Why's there a rabbit at the gate of the research institute?)

You: (Is it wearing a collar? Did it escape from the institute...)


Glass Window (Available after KEYORI or OSHZXN are decoded)

You: (The glass window mentioned in the intel... It's that one? It looks like one-way glass?)

You: (Hmm, it's pitch black from outside, I can't see anything...)

The intel mentioned something abnormal here, so you carefully stare at the glass again.

After a long time, the glass in front of you remains unchanged.

You: (Never mind, the intel may not be completely true. I'd better go back...)

Just as you're about to turn and leave, you catch a glimpse of a blurry shadow on the glass.

You: !!!

That seems to be a light spot resembling celestial globe, rotating in a strange pattern.

And some blurry character strings are floating around it.

In a blink of an eye, those blurry scenes completely vanish, and the view inside the glass window turns pitch black again.

You: (Strange, did my eyes play a trick on me...)

Modern Era Hotel
Hotel Lobby

Tea Table

In the lobby tea break area, each tea table is provided with a small plate of melon seeds.

The guests sitting around the tea table are chatting casually, but no one seems to notice those inconspicuous items.

But...

You: (The melon seeds seem to be arranged in a fixed shape?)

You walk around the tea table and find that melon seeds on each plate are arranged in a symmetrical shape.

To be precise, whether viewed from the front or the back, they appear to be letters with identical shapes.

The letters on the six plates are - OSHZXN.

You: (Do the letters arranged with melon seeds have any special meaning...)


Reception

The service personnel of Modern Era Hotel are divided in 3 groups, rotating every 8 hours to keep the reception manned 24 hours a day.

You: (The receptionists all look very serious!)


Large Screen

The large screen in the hotel lobby constantly plays scrolling footage of various scenic spots on Xinjiga Island.

You: (From the aerial angle, the scenery seems even more beautiful!)


Sofa (Available after KEYMEHTL or 3RE2FA are decoded)

You: (Is this the sofa? According to the intel, it's in the gap of a sofa...)

You: (Oh, there it is!)

Following the instructions in the intel, you find the letter hidden in the gap between the yellow sofa.

This letter seems to have been here for a long time. The paper has turned yellow, and the edges are also a bit fragile.

You open the letter carefully and try to make out the writing.

You: "If one day, this world is on the brink of collapse..."

You: "Please remember, the thing that carries light is called hope, and it will be our final anchor."

You: (What does it mean? Hope...)

You: (Who left this letter... and who was it left for?)

Hotel Guest Room

Lampshade (Available after KEYMEHTL or ROSES are decoded)

Based on the intel, you look inside the floor lamp against the light and notice a line of inconspicuous small characters inside the lampshade.

Its color is so light that if not observed carefully, it would almost go unnoticed.

It's a poem -

"On my barren land, you are the last rose"

You: (Is this... a poem by Neruda?)

You: (Someone wrote this inside the lampshade? Who would do such a thing...)

You: (And why write it on such a place?)


Sofa

You: (The sofa in the hotel room is so comfortable...)

You: (Even if I fall asleep while thinking about clues, I won't wake up with a sore back the next day.)

You: (Huh? Wait!!!)

Just as you're about to lie down on the sofa, you catch a glimpse of a corner of the sofa cushion.

The corner has a string of characters: 3330EE.

You sit up and carefully observe the sofa, only to find that the bottom right corner of each cushion has the same characters.

You: (These characters seem to be handwritten? Odd. Aren't the guest rooms supposed to be cleaned regularly? How did this get overlooked...?)


Window

From the floor-to-ceiling window of the room, you can see most of the scenery of Xinjiga Island.

You: (The scenery of the island is so amazing!)

Floral Greenhouse

Rose Bushes (Available after KEYMEHTL or 3330EE are decoded)

???: Lonely... no one...

Following the intel, you walk into the floral greenhouse. As you squat down by the rose bushes, you hear whispers.

You: (Hmm, someone's talking? But I can't see anyone around?)

???: Loneliness, no one likes loneliness...

The voice is still there. It seems to come from deep within the rose bushes.

You part the rose bushes, but there is no speaker or any device that could emit sound.

The voice murmurs a few more times before finally falling silent.

You: (What could be the source of the sound...)

The fragrant roses remain silent, unable to answer your question.


Plants

The hotel's floral greenhouse is equipped with a smart constant temperature control system, ensuring a favorable environment for every rare plant.

Despite it being autumn, the blooming flowers and refreshing fragrance make you feel as if you are in a sea of spring flowers.

You: (It's so beautiful. I feel much more relaxed staying here...)

Just as you're about to find a place to sit in the floral greenhouse, your are drawn to the flowers in front of you.

You: (What's this? Ribbons?)

Someone tied colorful ribbons to the branches and the ribbons are intertwined to form some unique and specific shapes, resembling letters.

You: (R, O, S, E, S...)

You: (ROSES? Is this a special design? Or... did someone leave a special message in the floral greenhouse?)


Roof

Sunlight falls on the floral greenhouse, and under the transparent glass, several rows of flowers are blooming beautifully.

You: (The hotel's florist must have taken good care of these flowers.)

Restaurant
Restaurant on the first floor

Chandelier

The restaurant has luxurious decoration, and the crystal chandeliers on the ceiling shimmer with soft light.


Table

On the table are exquisite silverware and candlesticks, with every detail reflecting refined taste.


Window

From the window, you can enjoy a panoramic view of Xinjiga Island, which is truly captivating.

The bar on the second floor

Light

The bar's light flickers and the music is low, making it hard to resist the temptation of staying.


Bottle

The bottles behind the bar are neatly arranged, reflecting a charming glow under the light.


Bar Counter

The air is filled with the aroma of wine.

Coffee Shop
Inside the coffee shop

Succulent (Available after KEYCAFE or PERIL are decoded)

According to the intel, you come to the coffee shop's table by the window to observe that small green succulent.

It is nothing special, just like many small green plants in the coffee shop.

You feel like you've seen a similar flower pot in Stellis before, but...

You: (There's a note!)

There is a small groove at the bottom of the flowerpot, with a piece of paper tightly stuck inside.

You carefully take it out and open it. There is only a line of text on the note.

You: "The moonlight in the Lower District is beautiful, but be careful, never walk into the moonlight, someone will be watching you."

You: (It seems like a warning, yet the information is vague.)

You: (Is it to remind people going to the Lower District to guard against something? But... against what?)

You: (Anyway, it's better to be cautious.)


Glass Window

The sunlight shines through the glass and casts shadows on the coffee table.

Sitting by the window with the aroma of coffee, you look out the window to watch the people passing by.

You: Eh?

Something seems to be flashing past the glass window in front of you. You blink and look closely at it...

You: (TRIP9!?)

Under the sunlight, a line of tiny engravings on the glass window becomes clearly visible.

If it weren't for the sunlight shining just right, you wouldn't be able to see such fine engravings.

Clearly, this must have been deliberately left behind by someone.

You: (Could it be a prank from the guest? Or... some kind of special message?)


Table

You: (I can smell the aroma of coffee as soon as I come in!)

You: (But this smell reminds me of the atmosphere in the pantry at Themis. If I were to meet the client here...)

You: (What's going on? I just wanted to relax, but ended up thinking about work again... Am I a workaholic?)

Zhenyi Street
On the street

Street-side plants (Available after KEYFST or 112358A are decoded)

Based on the intel, You find a cluster of thriving devil's ivy by Zhenyi Street.

You: (Is there something special about this devil's ivy? Or is some kind of message hidden inside?)

You take a closer look at the devil's ivy and gently push apart the leaves, trying to find anything unusual.

However, what ultimately catches your attention are these leaves...

You: These leaves are so evenly sized...

Youngster: They don't just look the same. Every leaf grows perfectly the aesthetically pleasing golden ratio of 0.618!

You: What?

You hear a young and energetic voice. It's from a youth in the shop along the street, and he sticks his head out to respond to you.

Youngster: A strange man used to come by every day to take care of this devil's ivy.

Youngster: What did he call this... the most aesthetic ratio, the Fibonacci sequence? Oh well, I didn't hear very clearly either.

You: What does he look like? What else does he do besides cultivating devil's ivy?

Youngster: He looked just like... any other ordinary middle-aged man. Nothing special.

Youngster: He would sit here every day, looking at the devil's ivy, and occasionally talking to me.

Youngster:

Youngster: That's so strange, even a three-year-old know how to do such a simple addition!

You: (112358! So this is the numerical pattern behind that encryption...)

You: (So the person left these clues... simply looking for people to admire the devil's ivy growing according to the golden ratio?)

Looking at the verdant devil's ivy, you can't help but think...


Street

Just like the streets in other cities, there are buses traveling through Zhenyi Street.

You sit in a coffee shop by the street, watching the buses pass by.

You: (Something feels off...)

After watching for a long time, you finally know where this strange feeling comes from.

You: (There seems to be something wrong with the license plate!)

Except for the license plate, there seems to be a small iron plate hanging at the rear of bus circling Zhenyi Street.

And every bus on the same route has it on the rear, with the characters on the iron plate being exactly the same - SOS2A.

You: (SOS!?)

You: (Is this some kind of SOS message? Or...)


Shop

Vendor A: Come, don't miss out! Super delicious rose pastry!

Vendor A: Taste it once, and you'll have no regrets in life. Come and try the best BBQ pork pastry on the island!

You: (It's so lively.)

While surrounded by these bustling and enthusiastic sounds, you stroll casually on Zhenyi Street. Though you're a stranger here, it feels like home.

You: (The atmosphere is quite similar to that of the CBD in Amity Heights...)

You: (I feel a little nostalgic for some reason. Hmm... I'll walk around there after I get back.)

Inside the Diner

Table

The dim sum diner is filled with the unique aroma of wheaten food, and after smelling it for a while, your stomach starts growling.


Wall

The atmosphere inside the dim sum diner is quiet and pleasant, making you slow down to savor this moment of leisure.


Seat

The bamboo steamer is stacked layer by layer, filled with crystal clear shrimp dumplings, fragrant cream custard buns, and BBQ pork buns.

Hotel
Outside the hotel

Rain Awning (Available after KEYINN or SOS2A are decoded)

You: (Found it!)

According to the intel, you finally find something abnormal on the support frame on the inside of the hotel's rain awning.

A light yellow envelope is embedded inside the support frame, which is very inconspicuous under the cover of the same-colored awning.

You borrow a ladder from the hotel staff and take out the envelope.

You: "If you can find it, please come and help me."

You: "I want to see the most beautiful sunset on the beach of Nanman Bay."

You: (A letter asking for help? But...)

The letter is not signed, so you do not know who left this letter.

Although it's asking for help, what the writer expects seems somewhat intangible.

You: (Nanman Bay's sunset... I might as well take a look too.)

You: (Perhaps after going there, I might discover more clues.)

You carefully put the letter away and start to look forward to the sunset, where its afterglow will blend with the blue sea and golden beach.


Street

You had just planned to take a casual walk on the street, but...

You glance over the metal plate on the street's utility pole and stop.

You: (1, 1, 2...)

You: (Huh, aren't the numbers on the utility pole supposed to be serial numbers? Why is there a duplicate number?)

You turn back and walk through the street again from the street corner.

You: (1, 1, 2, 3, 5, 8, A...)

Looks like you weren't imagining things. The numbers on the utility poles are not continuous, and the one on the last utility pole isn't even a number.

You: (But why is that so? Does it have any special meaning?)


Sky

Under the clear sky, you walk casually on the small street in front of the hotel.

A breeze wafts over from afar, the slight chill seemingly hinting at the approaching autumn.

You: (What a comfortable breeze.)

You: (When the weather is good, I should definitely go out for walks.)

Inside the hotel

Nightstand (Available after KEYINN or TRIP9 are decoded)

The bedside table is almost a standard feature in every hotel room, with many travelers having placed their luggage on it.

Just like a traveler taking a brief rest during a journey, after a short stay, they start looking forward to the next trip.

But, this time, it's different...

You: (There is really a ring inside!)

Following the intel, you open the bedside table and find the silver ring sitting in the drawer compartment.

It seems to have been here for a long time. The silver has oxidized and is covered in a gray-black layer.

The gem that should have been inlaid on it is lost, leaving only a hole, seemingly waiting for something to fill it.

You: (Was it forgotten by a guest?)

You: (But if it was forgotten, why bother setting up intel?)

Holding the ring setting on your palm, you carefully observe it over and over again. Finally, you notice a line of inconspicuous small characters inside the ring.

You: (Forever lost, my beloved.)

Is it because of the loss of a beloved that this treasure got abandoned?

Or was the ring itself a symbol of a sincere and passionate love, and its owner has let go of this relationship?

You: (These questions may never have a real answer.)


Wall

You: (Such an exquisite embroidery!)

Walking into the hotel room, you are captivated by the embroidery hanging on the wall.

It exquisitely depicts a cityscape, where the sheen of the threads changes as the view moves, seemingly making things come alive.

You: (From this angle, the clouds above the skyscraper look like they're moving...)

You want to get closer and look at it from another angle. Just as you walk to the bottom of the embroidery and look up...

You: (Huh!? There is something in the embroidery!)

Looking from this angle, something shiny appears on the surface of the embroidery, forming a string of characters: PERIL.

You: (Is this also embroidered? How did the person who made this do it?)

You: (Well, what does this string of characters represent?)


TV

You: (It seems a bit dark...)

The first impression you get upon walking into the room is that the indoor lighting is not good.

However, when you take a closer look inside, it's actually well-furnished.

The bed is tidy, the furniture has been carefully cleaned, and even the blades of the old style fan are spotless.

It is a good place for travelers to rest.

You: (The hotel looks a bit rundown, but the facilities are pretty complete.)

New Life Sanatorium
Sanatorium Entrance

Mountains

You: It smells delicious!

Following the scent, you look inside through the exquisite gate of the sanatorium, seeing wisps of mist rising among the mountain trees.

You: (Is it a hot spring? But it seems different from a common hot spring, it has a fruity aroma...)

You: (Just standing at this distance and getting a whiff of it already makes me feel refreshed!)


Birds

You: What are the birds pecking at on the ground...

You: Rice grains? Was someone just here feeding them?

The birds pecking at the rice grains seem unfazed by your approach. They even jump to the side, as if making room for you.

You: Thank you!

After thanking the birds, you take a closer look at the rice grains on the ground and find that they are arranged very regularly.

You: (They are arranged into MI? MI... Does it mean rice grain?)

You: (Am I imagining things? They seem to be intentionally maintaining this shape when pecking at the rice grains...)

You observe for a moment and find that they're maintaining not only the shape, but also the number of rice grains forming MI.

Once a bird picks away a grain, and another bird will immediately pick back another grain, so the quantity always remains at 31.

You: (Why are these birds behaving strangely? It's as if they've been trained to do so.)

You: (And, 31... What does it mean?)


Gate

"Beep beep," as soon as you approach the gate of the sanatorium, the heavy ornate iron gate emits two beeps.

You: (The gate of the sanatorium seems to have an automatic identification system?)

You: (But it looks just like an ordinary iron gate...)

You: (The sensor is concealed so well, no wonder it's a high-end sanatorium.)


Entrance Guardian Beast (Available after KEYNLS or DOREMI are decoded)

You: (Is this the guardian creature mentioned in the intel? Hmm, it's a bit high...)

The guardian creature statue is on top of the gatepost. To get a closer look, you try to get closer to the gatepost.

Although you still can't see the statue clearly, from this angle, you can see a row of small characters carved in the hidden part of the gatepost.

This once-barren land, blessed by the New Life guardian creature that brings beautiful scenery and fertile soil, has now become a perfect sanatorium.

You: (New Life guardian creature? Is it a myth unique to Xinjiga Island?)

(However, the name "New Life" does match the name of the sanatorium. Perhaps... this sanatorium is named after this guardian creature?)

Shallow Water Harbor
Wharf

Seabird (Available after KEYSHBR or MI31 are decoded)

Chirp, chirp, chirp...

The seabirds are leaping on the dock, changing direction from one railing to the next.

You: (10 minutes have passed...)

Based on the intel tip, you notice this seabird that is staying at the harbor dock.

Other seabirds come and go, landing, lingering, and then flying away. Only it keeps wandering around the dock, as if waiting for something.

You: (Does it have a master? Is it waiting for its master?)

You can't help but move closer to see if it's afraid of humans. Instead of running away, the seabird actually comes closer to you.

It's at this moment that you notice a small metal ring on its leg, with a note wrapped inside.

You take off the note, unfold it, and read the content on it.

You: ("May the seabird be blessed by the wind, carrying my longing across the currents of Nanman Bay to reach you...")

You: (A message from... someone?)

Someone has transformed the intangible longing into a tangible note and entrusted it to the seabird at the harbor, waiting for love to come.

You roll the note up again and stuff it into the metal ring on the seabird's leg.

You: May the person who is truly waiting for this note show up soon.

The seabird flaps its wings at you, as if in a silent response.


Dock

Toot - toot - toot -

A continuous tooting sound comes from the ships parked at the harbor, as if they are about to set sail.

But in fact, not a single steamship has left during your stay at the dock.

You: (Strange. If no ship is going to leave, why would...)

You: (Wait, these toots seem to have a pattern!)

You listen carefully and notice that each tooting sound rises from low to high, in a continuous and repetitive way, like a special melody.

You: (DO - RE - MI -)

You: (Yeah, it should be DOREMI!)

You: (Why does this melody keep repeating? Is it a Xinjiga Island tradition, or...)

You: (A special message between sailors?)


Sky

Seabirds hover above the bay, freely soaring against the wind.

You: (How beautiful! The feeling of enjoying the sea breeze here...)

You: (It's as if all the troubles in the world disappear in an instant.)

Deck

Life Ring (Available after KEYSHBR or MARIN22 are decoded)

You: (Huh, there really are words on the inside of the lifebuoy!)

According to the intel, you find the so-called abnormal message on the backup lifebuoy on the deck of the steamship.

This is a line of already blurred handwriting.

You: ("Sailors always believe the shore waits behind them. Facing the waves, I will never yield...")

You: I can't see clearly...

A long time should have passed since it was written, and the second half of the writing is now illegible.

However, just by reading the first half of the writing, you can feel the determination of the person who wrote it against the storms.

You: (Maybe it is written by a brave sailor.)


Floor

Crack!

You: (Ah! What's that sound!?)

A strange sound comes from your feet. You are shocked as you lean against the railing to admire the sea view.

After you regain your composure, you notice that the deck plank you just stepped on has loosened.

You: (Should I inform the crew to check it out?)

You: (Huh? What's this... engraving?)

The loose plank seems to have been reinserted by someone.

The color of the plank also differs from the others, with a line of characters carved on the edge: WRECK010.

You: (Looks like someone carved it with a knife. Wreck means... destruction?)

You: (Is this a prank by a bored sailor? Or does it really have some special meaning?)


Platform

You: Set sail, my steamship!

While no one is on the deck, you run to the bow and shout at the boundless sea.

Nothing responds to you, except the whistling of the sea wind and the fluttering colorful flags on the mast.

You: (...It would be nice to experience being a sailor next time.)

Ship Cabin

Bed (Available after KEYSHBR or WRECK010 are decoded)

Only bedding with good softness can provide a good rest for the exhausted sailors.

The bedding in the cabin is clean and tidy, clearly well-maintained.

You: (Sorry, I'll put everything back in place after checking.)

According to the intel, you move away the pillow and bedding on the bed, lift the bed board, and start searching...

Finally, you find a yellowed paper in the bed board interlayer.

"January 3rd, departed from the Shallow Harbor of Xinjiga Island."

"..."

"January 5th, attacked."

You: (Is it a logbook? But there's no signature, and the content is rather brief. Who put it here...)

You turn the paper over, filled with doubt, hoping to find more clues.

"He lied to me. He lied to all of us. There's no treasure here, it’s all part of his scheme!"

You: !!!

On the back, this sentence is written with a black fountain pen.

The person who wrote this sentence must have been furious, as even the strokes of the characters are slightly twisted.

You: (What's going on? Are the sailors who set sail in danger?)

You: (But this piece of paper looks old, which means it is something that happened many years ago.)

You: (Looks like it's get the correct answer unless I can find more detailed new clues...)

You carefully put away the unsigned page of the logbook and put the bedding back in place.

You: (Just put it away for now. If I find more clues in the future, I'll come back to solve this mystery.)


Table

A logbook is lying on the wooden table in the cabin rest area.

A few pages are torn off and can't be viewed. The rest mainly detail the sailors' experiences during voyages, as well as the time of each departure and return.

However, the last entry in the diary is different.

You: (What is this? Marin22...)

There is no experiences or time on that page, only a line of strange characters.

You: Marin... What does that mean? Is it Marine?

You: (Does it mean sailing or sailor? But what does 22 mean?)

You: (Is there a special meaning behind this combination...)


Bed

You: (This cabin seems to be for sailors to rest?)

You: (Am I imagining things...? The layout and decoration style inside the cabin look familiar...)

You: (Ah! I remember, when I was on the train in Bakerlon, the staff's rest area looked similar to this...)

You: (It should be a coincidence, right? Staff rest areas probably always share some similarities.)

Small Restaurant
Inside a restaurant on the first floor

Chairs

The wooden tables and chairs are neatly arranged, with classic porcelain bowls, chopsticks, and teapots placed on the table.


Counter

The signature dishes are all marked with exaggerated red circles. It seems that the owner is quite confident in his own dishes.


Wall decor

The faint aroma of rice lingers in the air, and you can hear the clattering of cookware from the kitchen.

Mahjong Parlor on the second floor

Table

The fragrance of tea fills the air.


Screen

The mahjong parlor is simply divided into several small areas by the screens.


Wall

You can occasionally hear cheerful laughter and excited cries coming from the other side of the wall.

NXX Temporary Headquarters
Luke's Clue

(Available after SEAGULL1023 is decoded)

Following Luke's cryptic hint, you find a seagull bracelet.

You: It's beautiful!

You: Did you make this?

Luke: Well, I can't say I do it all myself. I just make some tweaks to what's already there.

Luke: You remember that the Zhenyi Society's emblem is a seagull soaring freely over the sea, right?

You nod. Luke mentions that when joining the Zhenyi Society, each member receives a seagull-related keepsake as proof of membership.

Luke: If you wear a seagull-related accessory while walking in the Lower District, others won't dare to harass you.

Luke: Since you've been coming to see me a lot lately, wearing this will help keep you safer.

Luke takes the seagull bracelet from your hand and adjusts its size. Only then do you realize that this is what he has been so secretive about...

Luke: Here, try it on and see if it fits.

You: I'm sure what you made will fit perfectly.

Just as you expect, the bracelet slides perfectly onto your wrist — not too big, not too small, but just right.

Seagull Bracelet icon.pngSeagull Bracelet obtained!

Artem's Clue

(Available after NEW23333R is decoded)

In the lower drawer of the mahjong box, a uniquely designed mahjong tile brooch sits neatly in place.

You: Is this... a mahjong tile brooch?

Artem: Yes, I found it by chance on my way to meet Captain Morgan.

Artem: It's said that everyone on Xinjiga Island is skilled at mahjong. They see it as a way to sharpen the mind.

Artem: Over time, people choose their favorite tile and keep it as their lucky mahjong tile.

You run your fingers over the mahjong tile brooch and smile at Artem.

You: So this is the lucky mahjong tile?

Artem: The shop owner described it quite vividly, and this brooch has quite a unique design.

You: I love it! Such a unique brooch with a lucky charm. I'll take good care of it.

Artem: Then... let me help you put it on.

Artem reaches out to pin the brooch on your suit lapel.

Vyn's Clue

(Available after 623BOXSUPPER is decoded)

Following Vyn's cryptic hint, you find his embroidered handkerchief in a briefcase under the cabinet opposite the stairs.

A delicately embroidered white poppy adorns it, and upon closer inspection, you detect a subtle, refreshing fragrance.

You: It smells wonderful, Dr. Richter. This handkerchief...

Vyn: This is a silk handkerchief unique to New Life Sanatorium. Both the fabric and embroidery thread have been soaked in a special medicinal solution.

Vyn: Therefore, it gives off a rather unique fragrance.

You can't help but bring the handkerchief to your nose and take a sniff.

Although Vyn said it was soaked in medicine, the scent is more like a subtle floral fragrance, barely perceptible.

You: Does its fragrance have a calming effect? Just smelling it makes me feel more at peace.

Vyn: Yeah, many newcomers to Xinjiga Island have trouble adjusting to the climate here. This results in sleepless nights.

Vyn: That is why the sanatorium has introduced these special fragrant silk handkerchiefs. Simply carrying one with you can help calm your nerves and improve your sleep.

You: Does it work well?

Vyn carefully folds the handkerchief you crumpled. He gently places it in your palm.

Vyn: As for the effects... Why not try it yourself tonight?

Marius' Clue

(Available after BERRY2300 is decoded)

From the pile of candies packed to the brim, you finally dig out Marius' prepared surprise: a leopard print plushie keychain.

You: I must say, you really buried that surprise deep.

Marius: Of course! The deeper something is hidden, the more precious it becomes.

Marius: What do you think? Doesn't this leopard print plushie keychain look fierce?

Hearing this, you look down at the adorable leopard print plushie in your hand. It's definitely cute, but not quite fierce.

You: It's adorable! What's the story behind it?

Marius: About its origin? I heard there used to be a guardian beast on Xinjiga Island with a really weird name.

Marius: I can't quite pronounce it. It should be some kind of special pronunciation used by the locals.

Marius frowns, trying to mimic the islanders' pronunciation, but he fails several times.

You: It's all right. The name isn't important. What matters is that I've received your heartfelt gesture.

Marius: You sure know how to comfort people, Miss. Even though I don't know its name, I know this leopard print plushie is quite powerful on the island.

Marius: They say it wards off evil spirits and protects your safety. You must carry it with you whenever you go out.

You: Sure, I'll make sure to carry it with me wherever I go.

Clue Collection: Intel[edit | edit source]

Character

Elderly M Khaimit character icon.pngMr. Jin

I
  • Owner of Xinjiga Island
  • Mysterious Identity

Mr. Jin is the owner of Xinjiga Island. His origins and true name remain unknown. Rarely seen outside the island, he is best known for his immense wealth.

II
  • Collaborated with Wilson

He collaborated with Wilson and was desperate to obtain the miracle drug. In Chen Dong's eyes, he was a cold and ruthless person, merciless to those he deemed useless.

III
  • No signs of Psyche usage

Mr. Jin appears like an ordinary old man with no signs of taking Psyche. He is also closely guarded by mercenaries.

Anonymous character icon.pngAdrian Foster

  • Developer of the miracle drug

A member of the Gladiolus Valley New Drug Development Team, involved in the development of the black-market drug known as the miracle drug.
Over a month ago, his body was found drowned in the waters of Nanman Bay. Based on the estimated date of death and ocean current simulations, it was determined that the body drifted from Xinjiga Island.

Chen Dong character icon.pngChen Dong

I
  • Leader of the Gladiolus Valley New Drug Development Team
  • Whereabouts unknown

The head of the Gladiolus Valley New Drug Development Team and Adrian Foster's superior, working under Wilson for many years. His current whereabouts are unknown.

II
  • Developed the miracle drug for Mr. Jin
  • Currently detained in the research institute

Chen Dong's new drug development team was transferred to the Oracle Research Institute by Wilson to develop the miracle drug for Mr. Jin.
However, since the critical research data remained with Wilson, his death left Chen Dong without the necessary information, and the miracle drug failed to meet Mr. Jin's expectations, wasting precious materials. As a result, Chen Dong was imprisoned here.

Comments

King: I just can't understand leaving home to study something as absurd as a miracle drug.

Adjudicator: Based on the evidence we have, everything he did was his own undoing.

Raven: The wheel of fate turns, and those who do evil will eventually bring about their own downfall.

Face justice

Rosa: No matter what, he should be brought back to Stellis to face legal consequences.

Libra: (replying to Rosa) I believe we will bring him back. One day, he will atone for his sins in the prison of Stellis.

Take him out

Rosa: I wonder if we can bring him out of the research institute.

Libra: (replying to Rosa) Don't worry, there's more than just us investigating this.

Byrne character icon.pngByrne

I
  • Byrne Green
  • Concierge

A part-time server at the Modern Era Hotel, fifteen years old, with half Svartian heritage.
He has a gentle personality, excellent service skills, and a keen sense of propriety when interacting with people.
He is also skilled at managing the floral greenhouse and has a deep understanding of the island's local customs.
However, he seems physically frail, appearing thinner and weaker compared to peers of the same age.

II
  • Participated in research institute drug trials

Byrne's mother passed away from illness. To quickly repay the debts accrued for her treatment, he volunteered to participate in the Oracle Research Institute's drug trials.

III
  • Mr. Jin
  • Stao von Kapei

Byrne Green is both Mr. Jin and Stao von Kapei.
His mother's suicide left him obsessed with eternal youth.
To this end, he established the Oracle Research Institute on Xinjiga Island and helped Arron Colin evade conviction, hiring him to develop Psyche.
After taking Psyche, he transformed into a youthful appearance and crafted a new identity: Byrne Green, a mixed-race orphan working as a part-time waiter at a hotel to pay off debts.
However, the side effects of Psyche became increasingly unbearable. Hoping to survive, he pinned his hopes on Wilson's miracle drug, but the results were ultimately disappointing.

Comments

King: From an old man to a young boy — should I call Psyche's creation a miracle?

Raven: But this so-called miracle has cost many innocent lives.

Unforgivable

Rosa: No matter how you look at it, his crimes are unforgivable.

Libra: (replying to Rosa) It's a pity he can't personally atone to the victims.

Fabricated identity

Rosa: Did he fabricate Byrne's identity as an attempt to live a different life?

Adjudicator: If his twisted psyche had been alleviated earlier, things might not have come to this.

Libra: (replying to Rosa) That possibility does exist, but life offers no what-ifs.

Anonymous character icon.pngFriendly Guest

  • Byrne's inquiry log

Unlike the public perception of Mr. Jin, in Byrne's eyes, he is a very kind old man who not only chats with him but also tips generously.

Colin character icon.pngColin

I
  • Arron Colin
  • Head of the Oracle Research Institute

The manager of the Oracle Research Institute has been relentlessly seeking the research data for the miracle drug, going so far as to strike a deal with Artem, who was disguised as a gray-area attorney.

II
  • Conducted illegal experiments for research

Before coming to the island, Arron Colin worked at a major pharmaceutical company.
In his pursuit of developing an anti-aging drug, he conducted experiments on residents of the nursing home where his parents lived, leading to multiple deaths.
He faced murder charges but was acquitted due to insufficient evidence. It is evident that someone tampered with the evidence behind the scenes.

Passerby M1 character icon.pngDamon

  • Damon York
  • Deceased, suicide

Damon York, a pseudonym, was found dead in a guest room of a Lower District hotel, showing signs of torture before death.
He came to the island to trade NXX materials with Mr. Jin, but for unknown reasons, the supplier terminated the deal.
Mr. Jin issued an island-wide bounty for Damon's whereabouts, but Damon preferred to commit suicide rather than reveal the location of the NXX materials.

Qiang character icon.pngQiang

I
  • Member of the Zhenyi Society

Qiang, a member of the Zhenyi Society, is also Luke's superior within the organization.

II
  • Grandson of the former Zhenyi Society leader

He is the grandson of Mr. Wen, the former leader of the Zhenyi Society.
After Mr. Wen passed away, Lin Yi became Qiang's guardian.
He once sent Qiang to study in Nanman Bay to keep him away from the island's disputes.
However, Qiang wasn't suited for academics and returned to the island after just one semester, refusing to continue his education.
Subsequently, he worked under Lin Yi's guidance but did not engage in any illegal activities.

Comments

King: Who would've thought Qiang's background runs so deep?

Raven: I didn't realize it at first either. It was something I stumbled upon later.

Libra: It seems Lin Yi does treat Qiang well.

Adjudicator: This shows that Lin Yi isn't entirely cold-hearted.

Cecily shadow character icon.pngCecily

I
  • Svart Girl

A teenage girl from Svart. Someone has offered a hefty sum for the Zhenyi Society to escort her safely to Nanman Bay.

II
  • Cecily de Campbell
  • Granddaughter of Duke Campbell

Full name: Cecily de Campbell, Duke Campbell's beloved granddaughter.

III
  • Came to Xinjiga Island seeking his grandfather

Cecily, determined to stay on Xinjiga Island to continue searching for her grandfather, attempts to persuade Qiang to release her.
Ultimately, she is convinced by me and agrees to assist Luke in relaying the Zhenyi Society's messages to Nanman Bay.

Comments

Adjudicator: Leaving this place is a way to protect her.

King: Still, I think it's pretty brave of her to go to the island alone.

Libra: True, but it's far too dangerous.

Successfully persuaded

Rosa: Finally convinced Cecily to leave Xinjiga Island.

Raven: (replying to Rosa) Indeed, it's thanks to you that everything went so smoothly.

Smooth sailing

Rosa: I hope her journey ahead will be smooth and safe.

Raven: (replying to Rosa) I'm sure it will.

I
  • Whereabouts unknown

According to his caregiver, the Duke arrived in poor health but gradually improved and appeared younger during his stay.
However, he sometimes experienced great pain, possibly a side effect of the drugs he was taking.

II
  • Seeking medication to treat cancer

Duke Campbell was diagnosed with stomach cancer, with only three months to live according to the hospital.
Determined to survive long enough to preside over his granddaughter's coming-of-age ceremony, he came to the New Life Sanatorium seeking Psyche to cure his cancer.
He also encountered an old classmate from his boarding school on the island, surprised to see them appear twenty years younger than their actual age.

III
  • Hidden in the sanatorium garden
  • Initially judged as death by illness

Campbell's body was hidden beneath the central garden of the nursing home. Initial assessments suggest death by natural causes rather than murder. The exact cause of death will be determined after a professional forensic examination.

Comments

Libra: Burying a duke in the sanatorium's garden feels excessively hasty.

Adjudicator: On this island, anything can happen.

King: I suspect there's more than one person buried in that garden.

Cecily will be sad

Rosa: Duke Campbell is dead? Cecily will be heartbroken when she finds out.

Raven: (replying to Rosa) I still haven't figured out how to break the news to her...

Did not attend the coming-of-age ceremony

Rosa: He didn't even get to attend Cecily's coming-of-age ceremony.

Raven: (replying to Rosa) Yeah, perhaps life is just inherently full of regrets...

Shopkeeper F Winter character icon.pngMrs Chen

When
turned nineteen, Kapei passed away from illness. Returning to Svart to inherit the estate,

I
  • Current leader of the Zhenyi Society
  • Opposed to Mr. Jin

II
  • Choose to surrender

As disaster relief efforts neared completion, Lin Yi chose to surrender in the face of the international marshal's evidence.
He confessed to his crimes over the years but understood that as a criminal, he could never bring peace to Xinjiga Island and would inevitably face punishment for his past wrongdoings.
When he made the decision at Mr. Wen's grave, he had already foreseen this outcome.
However, he regretted not being able to look after Qiang any longer. The road ahead would now be for Qiang to walk alone.

Anonymous character icon.pngMr. Wen

As a teenager, he admired Lady Lily, Stao's mother, knowing how deeply she loved her son.
After Lady Lily's suicide, he willingly took on the responsibility of caring for Stao and remained loyal to him.
Even after Stao was lost with the sunken research institute, he continued salvage efforts, determined to fulfill his promise to Lady Lily until Stao's body was recovered.

Location

Xinjiga Island

I
  • Nanman Bay Islands

Xinjiga Island is under the jurisdiction of the Nanman Bay.
Due to its unique historical background, the island was long owned by the Svart family's Kapei lineage, leaving Nanman Bay with limited control and transforming it into a haven for criminals.
For unknown reasons, the mysterious Mr. Jin acquired ownership of the island.
However, his arrival only deepened its divide into the affluent Upper District and the impoverished Lower District.
The Upper District is under Mr. Jin's control, transformed into a high-tech hub with luxury hotels, sanatoriums, and research institutes. The Lower District, by contrast, remains home to the island's natives, struggling with poverty and dire living conditions.

II
  • Suspected of causing an earthquake

Xinjiga Island is located on a seismic belt and experienced a major earthquake in the 1960s.
Since then, apart from a few minor tremors, there have been no significant events.
However, the Seismological Bureau has recently detected some unusual activity.

Comments

King: An earthquake? That would be quite the coincidence.

Adjudicator: No wonder the temporary headquarters is an air defense structure — it must be designed to withstand earthquakes.

Libra: If an earthquake occurs, the lower district will suffer the most.

Raven: Exactly. The buildings here are old, and most lack earthquake resistance. The consequences would be unimaginable.

New Life Sanatorium

I
  • Location: Upper District

This elite sanatorium in the Upper District of Xinjiga Island has a high entry threshold.
Its clientele includes the rich and famous, including Svart nobility, who favor it.

II
  • Fewer patients

A month ago, patients at the New Life Sanatorium began to dwindle.

Comments

King: I don't know why, but I have a bad feeling about this.

Libra: Let's not jump to conclusions without solid evidence.

Raven: In a month's time, there must have been quite a few people who went missing.

Missing patients

Rosa: Where could these missing patients have gone...

Adjudicator: (replying to Rosa) It is still unclear. I will check the sanatorium later. There might be new leads.

Safe and sound

Rosa: No matter what, I hope they are all safe and sound.

Adjudicator: (replying to Rosa) Let's hope so.

Oracle Research Institute

I
  • Location: Upper District
  • Research Health Care Products

Located in the Upper District of Xinjiga Island, this pharmaceutical research institute specializes in health product development. It collaborated with Wilson Sorge to obtain research data on the miracle drug.

II
  • Illegal drug trials
  • Developer of Psyche

The Oracle Research Institute has been developing a drug named Psyche, purported to reverse aging, for decades. Numerous human trials have caused countless deaths.

Comments

Raven: No wonder security is so tight here. They've been conducting illegal drug tests for years.

Libra: Their actions are worse and more prolonged than in Gladiolus Valley.

King: Thanks to Miss' discovery of so much evidence, we should be able to shut it down directly.

Adjudicator: For the so-called reverse aging, some people will go to any lengths.

III
  • Equipped with a self-destruct mechanism
  • Destroyed

The Oracle Research Institute was overseen by Colin, who installed a self-destruct mechanism in its underground laboratory. Once activated, the entire institute would sink into the sea, and the process could not be stopped.
Since Stao frequently traveled between the underground lab and the surface, a highly secure elevator was installed in the lab's compartment. Even after the self-destruct mechanism is triggered, the elevator remains operational for a limited time, but only Stao could control it.

Comments

King: Perhaps their plan was to destroy the research institute to erase the evidence of their crimes.

Arbiter: They just didn't expect it to become Stao's own grave.

Raven: Sinking it into the sea won't necessarily erase the evidence. I refuse to believe it can't be salvaged.

Self-destruct device

Rosa: I can't believe I didn't realize that was a self-destruct device back then.

Libra: (replying to Rosa) You weren't the only one who didn't think of it.

Cannot be interrupted

Rosa: The research institute was filled with mechanisms that once activated, couldn't be interrupted.

Libra: (replying to Rosa) Only desperados would be so obsessed with such extreme designs.

NXX Temporary Headquarters

  • Location: Lower District
  • This mission's base of operations

Originally an underground facility for air defense, it has an outdated design but sturdy structure. After arriving on the island, Luke leased it through secret channels and converted it into a temporary base for the NXX Investigation Team on Xinjiga Island. The entrance is meticulously disguised, making it hard for outsiders to find.

Comments

Raven: Welcome to the temporary NXX headquarters.

Libra: Very unique style.

Adjudicator: If it were closer to the sanatorium, I would consider visiting more often.

Secret Hideout

Rose: This place feels like a secret hideout. I really like it.

King: (replying to Rosa) True. Maybe we could also renovate our headquarters in Stellis.

A bit hidden

Rosa: The entrance is a bit hidden — I couldn't find it at first.

King: (replying to Rosa) Honestly, I couldn't find it the first time either.

Modern Era Hotel

  • Location: Upper District

A luxury hotel located in the upper district of Xinjiga Island, featuring a twin-tower structure connected by a bridge.
The higher the floor, the more opulent the décor, hosting many elite and wealthy guests.

Comments

Raven: The Modern Era Hotel? Never been there. Is it fancy?

King: So-so. It's still a bit inferior compared to the hotels under our and Pax's banner.

Libra: The room number system is poorly designed. I've already filed a complaint.

The desserts are great

Rosa: The desserts here are great. Next time I'll bring some to the temporary headquarters.

Adjudicator: (replying to Rosa) Then I shall bring some tea over.

The flowers are lovely

Rosa: The hotel-supplied flowers are beautiful. Maybe we could decorate the temporary headquarters with some.

Adjudicator: (replying to Rosa) Leave that to me.

Secret Prison

  • Mysterious zone

A secret prison in the Upper District, specifically used to detain those who are disobedient or useless to Mr. Jin.

Comments

King: A secret prison? Does this Mr. Jin really think of Xinjiga Island as his own kingdom?

Raven: In a closed environment, some people can indeed get away with anything.

Libra: Such illegal places will eventually be shut down.

Adjudicator: (replying to Libra) As expected of you.

Hidden Laboratory

  • The innermost level of the institute
  • Contains extensive Psyche data

A hidden laboratory located on the lowest level of the Oracle Research Institute, storing a wealth of research data and case studies related to Psyche.

Coffee Shop

  • Location: Upper District
  • Meeting place with Captain Morgan

A café located in the Upper District, serving as the meeting place where Artem and Captain Morgan exchanged intel on the Gladiolus Valley researchers.

Comments

Raven: I didn't expect Captain Morgan to be here too.

King: As far as I remember, this seems to be Captain Morgan's first time working remotely, right?

Libra: Captain Morgan is in charge of investigating the Gladiolus Valley case in Stellis, so it's normal for him to be here.

Captain Morgan's colleague

Rosa: Actually, it's not just Captain Morgan. His colleague is here too.

Adjudicator: (replying to Rosa) Sounds like you have already met him.

Deliberately disguised

Rosa: Not only did he come, but he also disguised himself, just like us.

Adjudicator: (replying to Rosa) If I have the chance, I'd really like to meet Captain Morgan in disguise.

Zhenyi Street

  • Street named by the Zhenyi Society

A street named after the Zhenyi Society, originally inhabited by natives. Most of its current occupants are now illegal immigrants.

Comments

Adjudicator: Putting other things aside, this street still retains the old charm of Xinjiga Island.

Developed attraction sites

Rosa: If tourist attractions were developed here, it would be a great income-generating project.

Raven: Looks like you've already thought of a way out for the future economic development of this island.

Libra: Once everything is over, that future might not be impossible to realize.

King: (replying to Rosa) Good idea! If it's developed in cooperation with Pax, I'll invite Miss to be the test customer.

Specialty cuisine

Rosa: I've heard that there are quite a few specialty foods on Zhenyi Street, which could also be a direction for development.

Raven: Looks like you've already thought of a way out for the future economic development of this island.

Libra: Once everything is over, that future might not be impossible to realize.

King: (replying to Rosa) Xinjiga Island's food is really unique. I'm even considering investing in it.

Shallow Water Harbor

  • Location: Lower District
  • Controlled by the Zhenyi Society

The primary port in the Lower District, controlled by the Zhenyi Society.
It serves as the gateway for passenger ships, fishing boats, and cargo vessels.

Comments

Raven: There are fewer and fewer ships at the shallow water Harbor.

King: Could it be that so many ships are being hidden?

Adjudicator: Unusual events always have a reason. It seems something major is about to happen.

Libra: To prepare for the unexpected, everyone should be extra cautious during this time.

Lower District Diner

  • Location: Lower District

A small eatery in the Lower District with excellent business and widely praised dishes. However, its peculiar menu can confuse those unfamiliar with it.

Comments

Adjudicator: Better to choose a set menu. You can't go wrong.

The menu is baffling

Rosa: The taste is great, but the menu is a bit unclear.

Raven: Even so, I think the dishes in this restaurant are already the best in the lower district.

Libra: A special menu? I'd really like to try it if I get the chance.

King: (replying to Rosa) As long as there are pictures next to the menu items, it'll be clear at a glance.

Marketing tactic

Rosa: With such good business, I suspect that the confusing menu is likely a marketing tactic.

Raven: Even so, I think the dishes in this restaurant are already the best in the lower district.

Libra: A special menu? I'd really like to try it if I get the chance.

King: (replying to Rosa) It really is a good marketing strategy. Now I'm a little curious too.

Bar

  • Location: Upper District

A bar located on the streets of the Upper District, famous for its weekly raffle. It is said that any wish made after winning the grand prize will surely come true.

Dim Sum Diner

  • Location: Lower District

A dim sum diner frequently found in the Lower District. Its signature item, the Swimming Mimi Haha Tea, boasts a unique flavor that attracts guests with refined tastes.

Other

Carefree Communication Device

  • Island communication device
  • Contact Luke privately if you encounter issues

A terminal developed by NSB effectively addresses the issues of weak signals and eavesdropping on Xinjiga Island. However, enhancing security comes at the cost of limiting some regular features. Even so, it fully meets the communication needs on the island.
Additionally, the terminal comes pre-installed with specialized software to assist in investigations.
1024

Comments

King: Overall, it's not bad, but the emotes are so retro. Does it hold some sort of special sentiment to the NSB?

Adjudicator: It would be better if some additional features were added.

Libra: This looks like Version 1.0. There will likely be updates.

Gotten used to it

Rosa: At first, I thought I wouldn't get used to using the terminal. But once I did, I can't live without it.

Raven: (replying to Rosa) Yeah, that's its charm.

Hoping to keep it

Rosa: I hope it stays available after leaving Xinjiga Island.

Raven: (replying to Rosa) I could try submitting a request to the department. Maybe they'll grant your wish.

Zhenyi Society

I
  • Organization governing the Lower District

Initially established as a grassroots mutual aid organization by the natives of Xinjiga Island,
it evolved into an independent civilian group. It now controls the Lower District, maintaining a tense rivalry with Mr. Jin.
The entry permits issued by Zhenyi Society fetch exorbitant prices on the black market, beyond the reach of ordinary people.

II
  • Involved in black market business

Members of the Zhenyi Society occasionally take on black-market jobs, most of which involve gray areas. However, the members often lack a sense of legality and are indifferent to this.

Health Care Product

  • Pharmaceutical developed by the Oracle Research Institute

Developed by the Oracle Research Institute, the full name of this supplement is Grisophenol.
Its purported effects include curing terminal illnesses, eternal youth, and even immortality—claims more outlandish than Wilson's black-market drugs.

Comments

Raven: Is there really such a miraculous drug in this world?

Libra: Honestly, I don't believe it. Even if it exists, the price must be devastating.

Adjudicator: Just think about Wilson's miracle drug.

King: Life and death are natural laws. To defy them is to challenge nature itself.

Hotel Rumors

  • Byrne's inquiry log

It is said that Mr. Jin has a lavishly decorated suite on the top floor of the Modern Era Hotel, strictly off-limits to anyone.

Damon Chat Records

  • Chat History

The broken phone found on Damon contained three primary contact numbers, none of which were labeled. However, their identities could be inferred from the message exchanges:
1. Supplier to Damon: Terminate the deal with Mr. Jin and ensure the NXX materials are safely returned.
2. Damon to Mr. Jin: The deal is off.
Following this message, Damon blocked the number. The last number appears to belong to Damon's family:
Receiver: Dad, will you be back for my birthday this year?
Sender: Of course, sweetheart. Dad will even prepare a special gift for you.
Receiver: What gift?
Sender: If I tell you now, it won't be a surprise.
Receiver: Fine. So, when will you come back?
Sender: The third Friday of next month.
Receiver: Promise?
Sender: Promise. Pinky swear.
Receiver: If you break your promise, you have to swallow a thousand needles.
Sender: All right, if I break my promise, I have to swallow a thousand needles. Do you remember what you promised me the last time I left?
Receiver: To eat well, listen to Mom, and take my medicine on time.
Sender: Did you do all that?
Receiver: I did! Mom says it's bedtime now. Goodnight, Dad.

Sender: Goodnight, sweetheart.
Receiver: Stay safe and come home soon.
Sender: I will. You too, don't overwork yourself.
Receiver: Got it. Are you planning to change your job when you get back this time?
Sender: That might be a bit tricky. My boss values me a lot, and I really like this job.
Receiver: But you can't keep being away for so long. Are you really okay missing out on your daughter's childhood?
Sender: Let's talk about this when I get back, okay? It's late. You should get some rest.
Receiver: You're always brushing me off like this. Is work really more important than me and your daughter? Why don't you just marry your job instead?
Sender: Honey, I'm sorry. Please don't be mad. I'm not home, and I need you to hold down the fort.
Receiver: I was just venting. Stay safe out there and try to come home more often. Goodnight.
Sender: All right. Goodnight, honey.

Clue Sorting I

  • Summary of clues review

Mr. Jin's true identity is Stao von Kapei. The Mr. Jin seen at the banquet was merely his stand-in.
He consumed Psyche, a drug with rejuvenating effects, which made him appear at least twenty years younger than his actual age.
Desperate for a miracle drug to counteract the side effects of Psyche, his current status and identity remain a mystery.
Arron Colin, as the director of the Oracle Research Institute, was hired by Mr. Jin to develop Psyche.
However, Psyche's severe side effects disappointed Mr. Jin, causing a rift between them. Tired of Mr. Jin's control, Colin sought freedom.

Clue Sorting II

  • Summary of clues review

After taking control of the Lower District through the Zhenyi Society, Lin Yi absorbed a large number of illegal immigrants. This caused the society to grow rapidly but also complicated its internal structure, leading to constant conflicts within the district.
Meanwhile, Lin Yi seized control of the Shallow Water Port, dominating maritime transportation.
He smuggled large quantities of weapons from Nanman Bay to Xinjiga Island, planning to use force to seize control of the island.
Mr. Jin used the former leader, Mr. Wen, to take control of Xinjiga Island.
But after the Upper District was established, he broke his promise and expelled the indigenous people to the Lower District.
Since then, tensions between Mr. Jin and the Zhenyi Society have continued to escalate. Mr. Wen's trust in Mr. Jin likely stemmed from Mr. Jin's mother, Lily.
To free himself from Mr. Jin's control, Colin collaborated with Lin Yi.
With Mr. Jin as the island's owner, Colin found it hard to confront him alone.
Given Lin Yi's long-standing grudge against Mr. Jin, their alliance was mutually beneficial, allowing Colin to retrieve his leverage while enabling Lin Yi to strike a heavy blow to Mr. Jin.

Clue Combing III

  • Summary of clues review

After Damon's death, he became the person on Xinjiga Island with the most knowledge about the mysterious organization.
