During the conversation, it turns out that Monsieur Arthur's steam bird has disappeared from the editorial office. Talokard ed by and decided to take on this matter on her own. After some time, Euphrasia and the robot “Duga”, who managed to interview the residents, will approach the conversation.
After the dialogue, the Traveler will receive Talokard Investigation Notes, in which you can familiarize yourself with all the evidence obtained during the case. A survey of residents revealed only two suspects - the drunkard Roscher and an unknown child.
Look for clues at the scene
Examine evidence that may have been left at the crime scene:
- The stand where Monsieur Arthur stood is located near the entrance to the newspaper office. There is a mark left by a sharp object on it.
- Go down the stairs - there is a torn button lying on the steps.
- A little to the right of the button, in a flowerpot, lies a bottle that smells of wine and the sea.
- Move further to the right and turn behind the building. On the wooden box you will see an opened envelope without a letter.
- Return to the editorial doors and turn right, towards where Euphrasia stands. The last clue is the tracks of four people.
Help Paimon sort out the evidence: what's useful here?
Organize your clues: you need to choose clues that will help you move forward with your case.
- How many people are involved in the disappearance of Monsieur Arthur? Correct evidence: Disorderly tracks.
- Where might the suspect be? Correct evidence: "Arc" about Rosher.
Select clues to get the right guess.
Talokard will come to the conclusion that part of the tracks belongs to a drunkard, so he must be found. According to a survey of residents, Rosher was seen on the pier.
Head to the pier
The pier is located south of the Epicles Opera House. On the shore you can see three men threatening the dog - they came to collect the debt, but did not find Rosher on the spot.
Talokard will intervene in the conversation, which will anger the leader of the thugs. Defeat the red-haired stranger and his gang to protect the dog.
Find traces of the tramp Rosher
Search the pier to find information about the drunkard. After an unsuccessful search, the dog will draw the Traveler's attention to a strange box standing in the water near a stone with a shell.
Interact with the box, and then break it with a normal attack. As soon as the item is destroyed, Rosher will come out.
Talk to Rosher. The man will protest against Melusine’s accusations and refuse to tell the truth, since there is no evidence that he was near the editorial office at night.
Find a way around Roscher's tricks: What do you want to convey?
Find a way to by Rosher's tricks - to do this, interact with his dog. In the menu that opens, select dirty empty bottle, discovered in the Cours de Fontaine. The dog will smell a familiar scent and approach the man.
With the help of "Arc", it turns out that the man lost all his money, which is why he wanted to get a job at the "Steam Bird". At night he saw “someone small” running past the editorial office.
Let the dog sniff the evidence and follow the dog
The testimony mentioned a child, but it was not known where to look for him. Interact with the dog again and let Lombroso sniff potentially useful items: ordinary button
The animal will smell the scent and follow the trail. Follow him east, towards the next pier, on which there is a building. Go to the house ahead.
Approach the hut, near which the boy Kevin and his mother Madeleine are talking. Talk to the woman, who will tell you that although the child liked to look at the bird, he did not steal it. On the day of the kidnapping, Kevin brought only a knife from the editorial office, which was stuck in a stand.
Ask Kevin about the knife
Head north to the small lake to find Kevin. He's surrounded by Hydro Slimes, so he needs to defeat the monsters first.
After the battle, the boy will say that he threw the knife into the water. He marked the required place on the map. Go to where Kevin threw the knife away - to the pier in the south. Having reached the desired point, dive into the sea to find bladed weapons.
Go underwater to search for the blade
Once underwater, swim east, following the quest marker. Near the wreck of the ship you can see xenochrome armored crab. Take away its ability by hitting a creature.
Break the rock and swim into a small cave with a crab inside. Take the table knife with water stains and the rich chest.
Come back to the shore
Return to the pier and talk to Talokard. Melusina will tell you that she is in fact the caretaker of the evidence storage room, so she saw a similar knife associated with the fraud case of the Elegant Ware trade guild. Talokard will want to look for more information and offer to meet later.
