MinervamonSo, you really don't know anything about the Digital World?
AegiomonNope. The first thing I remember...Aegiomon...is when Inori saved me. Everything before that, well...MinervamonTalk about unusual! In fact, this is the first I've ever heard of such a thing.MinervamonDigimon are all born and raised in the Digital World. At least, as far as I know.Aegiomon...Oh, good morning, Player.AegiomonMinervamon's been telling me about all kinds of neat stuff.AegiomonLike the Digital World... And that it's where Digimon usually live.AegiomonBut I wonder, though... How come I didn't know about any of this stuff?Inori MisonoAegiomon...
MinervamonIf you really want to know, why not join me when I go back to my world?AegiomonJoin you?MinervamonNo need to be so on guard. Consider it a little vacation.MinervamonBut, of course... I can't go back there until I find what I'm looking for here...Aegiomon...Got it. I'm in, then! I'll do whatever I can to help!AegiomonHey, Player, about that thing Minervamon is looking for...AegiomonWhy don't we ask that lady about it?Inori MisonoYou mean that Dr. Simmons character? Don't you think she was a little... y'know... nutty?
AegiomonMaybe, but she's super curious about Digimon. That's why I figure she'd be willing to help us out.AegiomonThink we can find her if we go look for that car in the park again? C'mon. Let's head over there!PlayerI'm down for checking out Shinjuku Park.
PlayerHopefully, she has information about the Shinjuku Inferno.
PlayerSure. Gotta keep an eye on the class-A anomalies.
AegiomonYeah, Dr. Simmons might help us out!AegiomonPlayer, Minervamon, let's go!AegiomonUm, what do you mean by that?Aegiomon"Ano...maly"? What the heck is that?The In-Between 2 10 lines
Inori MisonoHmm. Sounds like we have to head to Akihabara, then...
PlayerWhere in Akihabara?
PlayerBut the information is uncertain...
PlayerTo go check out some action figures?
Inori MisonoThat guy said something about hunting for parts, right?
Inori MisonoThen I bet we should start with the shops under the overpass. Anyway, let's head over and see what we can find.
Inori MisonoBut staying here won't help anything, either. We ought to go check out some other spots, if you ask me.
Inori MisonoWhat, no! I mean, yeah... there are a ton of them around there... but no.
Inori MisonoIt's just that staying here won't help anything. We ought to go check out some other spots, if you ask me.
Inori MisonoWe need to take the train if we're going to Akihabara. Let's head to Shinjuku Station.

Dr. SimmonsOh, look at this lovely part...! And that one's gorgeous...! Ew. That one's hideous...!
Dr. Simmons...Hmm?
Dr. SimmonsOh, it's you folks. Thinking of cooperating with my research again?
PlayerWe need your help.
PlayerWhat are you doing?
Dr. SimmonsWell that's a coincidence. We, too, need someone to help. Still, let's start with your problem first.
Dr. SimmonsOh, I'm working on a project right now, but I'm having a little trouble.
Dr. SimmonsI was just trying to figure out how to deal with it.
Dr. SimmonsYes, yes, I see... Quite intriguing.
Dr. SimmonsSo, you're looking for something Digimon-related, yes? Our research might be of some use to you.
Dr. SimmonsActually, our team has been making strides on a certain project lately: radar that detects phase electrons.
Dr. SimmonsBut, currently, all it can do is detect them.
Dr. SimmonsEventually, however, we're also hoping to use the electromagnetic waves it emits to "interact" with phase electrons.
Dr. SimmonsBut here's the problem.
Dr. SimmonsWe've suddenly lost contact with the squad in charge of installing one of the five small base stations.
Dr. SimmonsIf you help me look into it, I'll give you a prototype detector. It ought to help you find what you're looking for.
PlayerAll right. We'll take the job.
PlayerTell me more about this prototype detector.
PlayerPublic safety is short staffed too, huh?
Dr. SimmonsIt's settled! Head to the Higashi-Shinjuku subway. That's where the squad should be.
Dr. SimmonsGiven how we lost contact, I'm guessing the squad isn't exactly having a spa day over there. Tread carefully.
Dr. SimmonsThink of it as radar that detects the presence of phase electrons. It might help you find what you're looking for.
Dr. SimmonsIt's still in the prototype phase, though, so it's pretty bulky, to be sure.
Dr. SimmonsBut if I use the parts I found here, I'm certain I can make it smaller than it has any business being.
Dr. SimmonsBe it manpower or funds, we're always short on something. Not many folks rushing to join the "anomaly squad," you see.
Dr. SimmonsWhich is why I'm willing to take any help I can get, provided it's a fair exchange, of course.
Dr. SimmonsNot a bad deal, right? What do you say?
OperatorDr. Monica Simmons... A cursory look into her background shows just how famous she is in her field.
OperatorThat being said, she apparently suddenly vanished from the realm of academia after a certain point.
OperatorOnce she was in public safety, personal information and records became hard to find. Everything was confidential.
OperatorIn exchange for giving up her social status, she probably chose to have access to state-level classified information.
OperatorA genius who left the public stage... Somehow, that brings Dr. Yuki to mind.

Shota KuroiDamn it all!
PlayerWe're here on Dr. Simmons' orders.
PlayerAre you all right?
Shota KuroiHer orders?
Shota KuroiAnyway, our squad can't do anything against a monster like that.
Shota KuroiWait... I remember you guys! What are you doing here?! This area is off-limits!
Shota KuroiThe monster stole the device's activation switch... and ran off in there.
PlayerWe'll go take a look.
PlayerWhat kind of "monster," exactly?
Shota KuroiI hate to have to ask civilians for help, but please!
Shota KuroiIt's that same strange creature as before. Looks like we're just gonna have to count on you for this...

AegiomonWhere are we?MinervamonThis charge in the air... I'd say we're in the Outer Dungeons.MinervamonIt's an unstable space that's in between the Digital World and your world.MinervamonAnd I'm guessing the "monster" up ahead is a Digimon. Let's stay sharp.Inori Misono...
PlayerYou must be nervous...
PlayerDon't be scared. I'm right beside you.
PlayerKeeping citizens safe is an agent's duty.
Inori MisonoI'm okay. Really, I am. The jitters I felt before are all pretty much gone.
Inori MisonoAfter all, I've got a new, dependable friend in a funny outfit by my side.
Inori MisonoIt's like I've got an anime character watching out for me.
"Agent Alpha" was my hero, you know.
"Agent Alpha" was my hero, you know.
Inori MisonoAnyway, I just wanted to say that I'm relying on you. No need to worry about me, let's hurry ahead.

BlackGatomonNyahaha! I got my hands on a real prize this time!BlackGatomonMore! I have to go swipe more stuff off of them! You should've seen the looks on their faces! Nyahaha!PlayerGive back what you stole.
PlayerWhat're you doing here?
PlayerSounds like you're having fun. Mind if we join in?
BlackGatomonNuh-uh, no way! If you want it, you're going to have to take it! Nyahaha!BlackGatomonNone of your business! Maybe I'm just enjoying the look on weaklings' faces when I snatch away their precious things!BlackGatomonYou humans are no match for us! If you don't like it, why don't you try to do something about it?!BlackGatomonThe heck are you saying?! You guys are just stupid humans! No way I'm going to let the likes of you in on my fun!BlackGatomonIt's because you humans are so weak that we play around with you like this. Toys should know when to keep quiet!The In-Between 7 1 lines
Inori MisonoWe should go give it back to the public safety guy right away.

Shota KuroiWe'll handle the cleanup from here. Dr. Simmons is already back at the public safety vehicle in Shinjuku Park.
Shota KuroiThanks again for all your help. We'll close this area off to the public again.
Shota KuroiThe name's Shota Kuroi. I'll be sure to return the favor sometime.
Shota KuroiI'll escort you back to Dr. Simmons' location.

Dr. SimmonsI've heard the report. Fantastic work out there.
Dr. SimmonsI've made massive leaps in my research, thanks to you.
Dr. SimmonsTime to hold up my end of the bargain. That communicator of yours... May I see it for a moment?
Dr. SimmonsThere! I've installed that miniaturized detector I proposed earlier into your communicator. Works just like I explained.
Dr. SimmonsBut I have to ask...
Dr. SimmonsWhere in the world are you from, anyway? That device isn't tech you'd find in any retail store, that's for sure.
Dr. SimmonsI couldn't wrap my head around most of the functionality. What would you even use something like that for?
PlayerI'm afraid I can't answer that.
Player...
PlayerIts functionality is essential for preventing a global collapse.
Dr. Simmons..."Can't," you say? All right. I won't push it.
Dr. SimmonsClamming up, huh?
Dr. SimmonsLike a secret agent who's been through interrogation training...
Dr. SimmonsIf you can't tell me, then just say so. I don't mind leaving it at that.
Dr. SimmonsIf that were true, it would be one heck of a feature, to be sure... Sounds like something out of an anime.
Dr. SimmonsAnd don't get me wrong. I'm into all that stuff... but, still, reckless lies never help.
Dr. SimmonsPhase electron lifeforms are being pursued by the government agencies of all the developed nations, after all...
Dr. SimmonsOne or two spies in the mix would hardly be a surprise. The only thing that astonishes me... is the beauty of your device.
Dr. SimmonsWhoever built that marvel... They're a genius, maybe even more gifted than yours truly.
Dr. SimmonsI'm fascinated by you...! Where you come from, and who's backing you.
Dr. SimmonsI imagine you're not one to easily divulge your secrets... Nevertheless, you'll find I don't give up easily.
Dr. SimmonsI think this might be the start of a long and fruitful relationship. *giggle*
