Hiroko SagisakaOh, I'm so glad you're here! Listen. This weird letter just came in.

PlayerSounds creepy.

PlayerWeird, how?

PlayerYeah, that can be scary.

Hiroko SagisakaRight?! That's why I got in touch, because I was so creeped out.

Hiroko SagisakaI don't know if I can explain... Oh! Here. Let me just show you!

Hiroko SagisakaIt's been awful. Hey! I don't want sympathy! You busy? Come back when you can hear me out!

Hiroko SagisakaTake a look at this. Seems like an ordinary letter, right? But if I turn it over...

Hiroko SagisakaSee here? It says it's from Kosuke Misono. That's Inori's pop!

Hiroko SagisakaBut why would he send a letter to his own office? Weird, right?

PlayerMaybe it has to do with a case?

PlayerMaybe it's something he can't say directly?

PlayerIt could be a memento from his travels.

Hiroko SagisakaIt may have been sent by someone pretending to be him...

Hiroko SagisakaMaybe. I imagine there are a lot of things Inori's pop can't tell anyone right now.

Hiroko SagisakaOh, sure. Who doesn't mail themselves letters as mementos? Come on! There's no way!

Hiroko SagisakaAnyway, inside the envelope was the key to a coin locker in Shinjuku Station.

Hiroko SagisakaBut I'm not brave enough to open that locker on my own, so I want you to come with me.

PlayerCould it be a bicycle key?

PlayerCould it be a coin locker key?

PlayerCould it be the key to the office vault?

Hiroko SagisakaI dunno... That wouldn't explain this number. And did the guy ever ride a bike?

Hiroko SagisakaWait... I think that could be it! Good thinking! You're a genius!

Hiroko SagisakaBut then why put the combination on the key? Also, the number of digits don't match.

Hiroko SagisakaHang on a minute while I look into this. If I take a photo, then do an image search...

Hiroko SagisakaAnyway, inside the envelope was the key to a coin locker in Shinjuku Station.

Hiroko SagisakaBut I don't have the courage to open that locker on my own. Let's go check it out now!

Hiroko SagisakaSo, the key goes to one of these lockers... There! That one's got the same number!

Hiroko SagisakaInori's pop must've put something in here. Okay... let's see what's inside...

Hiroko SagisakaHuh? What's this?

PlayerSome sort of machine part?

PlayerPart of a Digimon?

PlayerA time bomb?

Hiroko SagisakaSeems like it. At least, it looks mechanical, though I'm not sure what it would go to.

Hiroko SagisakaMaybe. It seems like it's made of metal, but some Digimon do have metal parts.

Hiroko SagisakaI doubt it. There's no timer, and opening the door would make a better trigger for a bomb.

Hiroko SagisakaBut if Inori's pop sent this to us even though we're enemies, it must be important.

Hiroko SagisakaWait a minute... I feel like I've seen something like this before.

Hiroko SagisakaWhere could that have been? For the life of me, I can't remember...

PlayerThink back. I know you can do it!

PlayerHow long ago was this?

PlayerYou're sure it wasn't in a dream?

Hiroko SagisakaRight. This has to be big. Come on, Hiroko! Channel your streamer energy and think!

Hiroko SagisakaLet me think... I feel like it was way before I met you...

Hiroko SagisakaCome on! Stop teasing me! I know it wasn't a dream...

Hiroko SagisakaI've got it! It was back at the site of that big disaster! At least, I'm pretty sure...

Hiroko SagisakaI forgot all about it until now, but... that has to be where I saw this before!

PlayerSo, Inori's dad stole evidence?

PlayerWhat big disaster?

PlayerI'm glad you remembered.

Hiroko SagisakaMaybe... No, I bet he was keeping it hidden.

Hiroko SagisakaThe unsolved Nishi-Shinjuku Mass Building Collapse. I investigated the scene myself.

Hiroko SagisakaHee hee. Thanks! I'd hate to think I was going senile at my age!

Hiroko SagisakaWay back when, a whole group of buildings in Nishi-Shinjuku collapsed all at once.

Hiroko SagisakaIt was so strange, a lot of people still see it as an unsolved mystery, not an accident.

Hiroko SagisakaA sudden land subsidence was the official explanation, but that never made much sense.

PlayerIt could have been a Digimon.

PlayerAnd people just accepted the subsidence explanation?

PlayerSome people believe everything they hear.

Hiroko SagisakaRight. At the time, it was unclear, but now that seems likely.

Hiroko SagisakaWell, there was no better explanation at the time, so they sort of had to.

Hiroko SagisakaTrue. Few people question the government, after all. And so the incident faded into obscurity.

Hiroko SagisakaSo Inori's pop DID look into that incident. I thought he might. After all, that's when...

Hiroko SagisakaUh... Never mind.

Hiroko SagisakaI'd say this calls for a reinvestigation! I'll go on ahead. See you in Nishi-Shinjuku!

Hiroko SagisakaThis is it! This is the site of the Nishi-Shinjuku Mass Building Collapse.

Hiroko SagisakaThere are all new buildings here now, but, back then, this place was in shambles.

PlayerCould it have been caused by a gate opening?

PlayerCould a clash between Digimon have caused it?

PlayerMaybe it was caused by a meteorite impact.

Hiroko SagisakaYes, it may have been a side effect of the Digimon and human worlds joining together...

Hiroko SagisakaThis WAS the site of a battle between Digimon. It could be related.

Hiroko SagisakaThat was one theory at the time, but with no crater or any other evidence, it didn't last.

Hiroko Sagisaka...What is this?!

MachinedramonAT LAST... AT LAST I HAVE FOUND IT... THE MISSING PART OF ME!

Hiroko SagisakaThat thing seems crazy strong! And doesn't it look like what we found in that locker?

MachinedramonRETURN... MY MISSING PIECE... TO ME!

Hiroko SagisakaUh-oh... Looks like we're in for a fight! But... do we even stand a chance?

Hiroko SagisakaAre you actually going to fight it?! Sorry! All I can offer is moral support. Good luck!

???Player!

Hiroko SagisakaWho said that?!

Hiroko SagisakaOh! Look who it is!

OmnimonWe sensed an immense power and rushed to your aid! The Royal Knights' strength is yours!

OmnimonYet this location cannot accommodate us all. Who would you have as your chief support?

PlayerOmnimon.

PlayerGallantmon.

PlayerMagnamon.

PlayerAnother Digimon.

OmnimonAs you wish! Now, witness how the Royal Knights fight as one!

GallantmonI, Gallantmon, am yours to command! My holy lance, Gram, shall strike good and true!

MagnamonVery well! My ferocious flaming fists are at your disposal!

OmnimonYou may have any one of your choosing from the Royal Knights.

PlayerDynasmon.

PlayerLordKnightmon.

PlayerUlforceVeedramon.

PlayerYet another Digimon.

DynasmonMy lord! By my honor as a knight, I pledge you my sword!

LordKnightmonYou are wise to choose me to fight at your side! This is sure to be a splendid battle!

UlforceVeedramonRight... Leave this battle to me. Now is the time to show my true strength!

OmnimonYou may have any one of your choosing from the Royal Knights.

PlayerCraniamon.

PlayerKentaurosmon.

PlayerLeopardmon.

PlayerYet another Digimon still.

CraniamonI could not ask for a better foe against which to test my mettle!

KentaurosmonYou need but call my name and I shall appear! Let us dazzle our foe with my speed!

LeopardmonYou would rely upon my strategic mind? Then I shall guide you down the path to victory!

OmnimonYou may have any one of your choosing from the Royal Knights.

PlayerExamon.

PlayerGankoomon.

PlayerJesmon.

PlayerAlphamon.

PlayerLet me think that through again.

ExamonNone of the enemy attacks shall get past my massive frame. I shall be your shield!

GankoomonPerfect! I've been itching for some action! Now, lemme show ya what I can do!

JesmonYou seek MY aid? But my master... No. You chose me. I shall fight with all I have!

AlphamonMake no mistake. I take up arms not to save humanity, but because I long for this battle!

OmnimonThis location cannot accommodate us all. Who would you have as your chief support?

MachinedramonURK... I SHALL... RETURN! HOWEVER MANY TIMES IT TAKES... I SHALL... BE... REBORN!

Hiroko SagisakaW-We won...?

Hiroko SagisakaBut, you know, I don't think it's dead. It seems more like... it's gone into rest mode.

Hiroko SagisakaWhat if it suddenly reactivates and goes on the attack again?

PlayerWe'll defeat it as many times as it takes!

PlayerIs this Digimon what caused the building collapse?

PlayerWe should take it apart right now.

Hiroko SagisakaThat's... very reassuring. Knowing you, I'm sure you'll follow through on that, too.

Hiroko SagisakaMaybe, but it's hard to say for sure. I guess that's going to remain a mystery.

Hiroko SagisakaI'd love to, but look at that armor... I bet it's way tougher than we humans could handle.

Hiroko SagisakaAnyway, it makes sense that Inori's pop would investigate the disaster. It's how Yuu died.

Hiroko SagisakaWhy do you think he sent us that part? Did he want us to get his revenge?

PlayerYeah, maybe.

PlayerMaybe he wanted us to know the truth.

PlayerMaybe he just couldn't be bothered.

Hiroko SagisakaWell, if so, I hope we lived up to his expectations.

Hiroko SagisakaMaybe. After all, there are other unsolved mysteries Digimon may have caused as well.

Hiroko SagisakaHaha. Yeah, maybe. He certainly seems busy. He might have used us to do his dirty work.

Hiroko SagisakaWhatever his reasons, I still want to believe in the guy, you know?

Hiroko SagisakaWe may not see eye to eye right now, but surely we share a desire to keep people safe.

Hiroko SagisakaAnyway, here's your compensation for helping me deal with that weird letter. Thanks!
