GomaheiHey, Kenchan! What's going on? Why have you brought these strangers here?!
GomaheiThis is our space. We agreed!
WormmonWe're hackers. Sorry to intrude. We'll be gone as soon as we finish up here.
MicchanKenchan, what's all this about?
KenSorry to break my promise.
KenBut I need to find out the truth! So that we can keep playing together.
KenI have to know who the faceless person standing behind me during the game was.
YukiHuh? Faceless person?
WormmonRight! That's what we're here to determine.
ShoutanFaceless person? Kenchan, you must have been mistaken.
KenNo, it was clear as day! I turned around, and there was someone with no face standing right there!
GomaheiBut look around! There's no one like that!
ErikaIt's not here now, but I saw it. It must have something to do with the distortions I saw.
RikuHuh?
ErikaSo everyone here now is the same as during the game, correct?
ErikaThink back. Isn't there a discrepancy between Mr. Akao's account and the current situation?
ErikaSee, it shows them playing, just as Mr. Akao said.
ErikaBut look closely. Notice anything unusual?
PlayerMr. Akao isn't there? There are more people here now? Why are there ten people?
KenI am. I'm the one crouching in the middle. The other eight are around me...huh?
WormmonThere are nine people around you. So ten people in total!
KenThat's impossible! Yocchin, Gomahei, Satomin, Riku... There should only be nine of us.
WormmonAre there? There video shows...ten people.
KenThat can't be right.
KenYocchin, Gomahei, Satomin, Riku... There should only be nine of us!
WormmonYou're right!
KenLet me see. Yocchin, Gomahei. Satomin, Riku...
KenThere are nine of us, but the video shows ten. What's going on?
ErikaExactly. There should be nine of you.
ErikaNow count how many of you there are.
ChildrenOne, two, three...
Childrenfour, five six...
Childrenseven, eight, nine... Ah!
ChildrenThis can't be.
ChildrenThere's...
ChildrenThere's...
Children...ten of us?!
ErikaCorrect. There's someone here you don't know.
RikuHow's that possible?!
RikuWe reserved this area through the proper channels. No one could just wander in!
WormmonA hacker of Erika's skill wouldn't find it difficult.
WormmonAnd it might not be a hacker...
MicchanBut we all know each other!
MicchanWe'd know if there was someone here who shouldn't be!
ErikaYou've been tricked by a shapeshifter.
ErikaHave you figured out how the shapeshifter joined them without anyone noticing?
PlayerBy creating a fake avatar. By using a hologram. Kenchan brought an identical twin.
ErikaThat's essentially it. We'll need more clues to find out more.
ErikaA hologram? You mean like a 3D image?
KenYou saw the video. The nine people in the circle were holding hands during the game.
KenIf it was a hologram, it wouldn't be able to hold hands.
WormmonWhat? An identical twin?!
KenThat's impossible! I'm an only child!
ErikaYou may not understand, but at least try to take this seriously.
ErikaEveryone, take a good look at your bodies.
RikuWhat's this?!
MicchanGomahei... Your face is messed up!
GomaheiMicchan! There's noise all over you!
MicchanErika, are you doing this? What's going on?!
ErikaDon't worry. It won't cause any harm. I'll make them go back to normal.
WormmonDid you do that before?
ErikaYes. I did it to make the distortions on your avatars easier to see.
ErikaThe noise you just saw is the fake parts on your bodies, copies of the child parts you used to make your avatars.
WormmonErm... What exactly do you mean?
ErikaThe shapeshifter took body parts from each of your nine avatars and used them to make a new human avatar.
ErikaThen it replaced those parts with copies.
WormmonI see. Because it made the avatar from familiar parts, we mistook it for one of us.
KenBut if it has the ability to create copy parts, why make an avatar from our parts?
ShoutanRight. It would have been much easier to make an avatar by just using the copy parts, right?
ErikaAs you saw just now, the copies aren't very noticeable on each of your avatars, but if you look closely, they're not like the real parts.
ErikaThat's why it used real parts from each of you instead of making an avatar entirely from copy parts. That allowed it to go unnoticed.
ErikaAnd so none of you noticed that there was a tenth person.
ErikaThe reason I could see the distortion so easily when none of you could is because I didn't know any of you.
WormmonOnly someone in your group of friends would mistake the imposter for one of you.
ErikaThat's what happened.
ErikaYou're being very quiet. Are you following this?
ErikaAre you sure? Let's see.
ErikaIf I apply noise to the copied avatar parts, can you tell me who the imposter is?
Player(The imposter is...)
PlayerThe person covered in noise! The person with no noise! Wormmon!
ErikaDid you listen to a word she said?
WormmonThe parts affected by noise are the copies, not the real ones. The imposter used only real parts stolen from the other avatars.
WormmonSo that means the person with no noise is the imposter.
ErikaThat's right, Wormmon.
WormmonYay! I got it!
ErikaThat's right.
ErikaYou have to do some of the work. You are the one who took this case, after all.
WormmonWhaaaat?! Me?!
PlayerOuch!
ErikaI guess it's my fault for even asking you.
ErikaYou're the imposter! Show your true form!
ImpmonHahahahaha! Well done!
ImpmonNow to steal some different parts and change my disguise again!
ImpmonWho could be in this avatar?
ImpmonJust like a game of hide-and-seek! Hahahahaha!
