Part 37: Iori Fuyusaka 3
Chapter 37: Iori Fuyusaka 3
Music: Bright Days Ahead (Azusa Chiba)
In case youve forgotten, Ioris segment here is a little mini-maze of conversation branches that we have to navigate. We start in About that cat , but talking to Miwako leads us to Boys, boys, boys. Well skip over the dialogue because we already covered it in Iori Fuyusaka 2.
Consider 2089
(2089 Thats what year it was in my dream. He said hed gone back in time 16 years to find me. If that was a real premonition Somethings gonna happen in the year 2105. Thats 120 years from now )
Ooh, kitty!
Just approach it.
Well, that didnt work
The cat appears during Boys, boys, boys and walking near it will cause it to run away, switching the topic back to About that cat Weve already gone over this in Iori 2, but its important here.
We need to talk to Tomi to progress.
Im still hungry.
Good idea. Where should we go?
Now were back in Wanna grab food?
Talking to Tomi again will bring us to Soft serve or crêpes?
Lets go with crêpes this time.
Choose Crêpes
Crêpes sound good right about now.
Then thats that!
Lets go!
I love it when some random asshole just stands in front of one of the main characters when I need to capture a shot. It just rules.
Chocolate banana, right?
Double strawberry was half off! I had to try it. Yummm
Mmm So many strawberries!
Crispy edges Lots of cream!
What if I got the tuna and mayo? I could have fed it to the cat!
Hey Cats cant have crêpes. I actually have cat treats with me. If you want to feed him, give him those.
Geez, Miwako.
Ill keep that in mind next time I see one. Thanks, Miwa-chan!
You wont have to wait long for your chance, Iori.
If we dont approach, but instead retreat a bit, we can call out to Miwako.
Consider Cat Treats
(Nows the time Ill use Miwa-chans treats!)
Call Out for Cat Treats
(whispering loudly) Miwa-chan! Over here!
Oh! One moment. Ill get the treats.
He ate the whole thing!
Theyre very similar, but I think the one at school looks slightly different.
So theres more than one
You got a good look at the one at school, huh? At the front gate with Kurabe.
Oh You saw that?
It was
Music: Mornin, Sunshine! (Mitsuhiro Kaneda)
Hehe
Behold! Iori Fuyusaka, genuine morning person! Its not so bad if I put my mind to it.
Early cat gets the mouse, huh?
Shh! Quiet!
? Oh, a cat.
Yeah, Im sure, buddy.
Maybe theyre siblings.
Do you still have those dreams?
Yeah, sometimes.
I have them too. You know that one you talked about earlier? With the UFO buried underground?
UFO?
What were you guys up to over there?
(quizzically) Uh-huh.
O-Okay.
Oh
Poor Megumi. Also I generally try to avoid catching people midblink but this was the best shot I could get under these circumstances, sorry Juro!
What happened in the dream?
Use Strange Dreams on Juro Kurabe
Music: The Tower of Knowledge (Hitoshi Sakimoto)
I was worried with you all by yourself.
Im flattered you feel that way But I cant think about this. Not now. I dont want to leave you hanging
I dont know what got into me. This is no time for a confession. It would only make things more complicated. But listen. When this is all over Ill talk to you again. Promise.
Were you able to find the source of these tremors?
Okino-kun
Theyre starting to collapse. The tunnel is blocked. Well need to find another route to the surface.
Theres no use rushing. No ones left up there anyway.
You dont have to say it.
So you remember. Im so sorry. About your mother.
Its okay. Our work here is a good distraction. Ill check the terminal over there
Dont worry about it.
Its been three days, and its only at 1.2% Thats unusually dense. Still, the systems logical structure Its not so far off from our own. Was Okino-kun right all along? This could be a relic of an ancient civilization.
Something incredible, surely.
Id say its a transmission device. In other words, a teleporter.
(skeptically)
Dont give me that look. Hear me out. I actually found some associated data.
Come on, youve taken quantum mechanics. Transmission of matter isnt possible.
We cant assume that alien technology is bound by the same constraints. If my theory is correct Weve got an explanation for the disappearances. Including those of your parents, Morimura-san.
I found this.
Music: Deafening Silence (Mitsuhiro Kaneda)
The map This relic is enormous.
Its 30 kilometers in diameter. And the whole things underground. Right beneath the city.
It looks like a giant saucer
Fascinating. So this isnt just any alien facility. Its a buried UFO.
Fucking hell, this game is insane.
This facility is huge. How could it have never been discovered?
Its not likely. Rather It may have been intentionally hidden.
A government coverup of alien life Sounds like a movie from the 20th century.
Juro Izumi: still a nerd.
Are they trying to unearth this UFO?
Just what are they after?
As Okino messes with the terminal, the UFO popup is replaced by a readout of numbers flashing by. They seem to be decreasing.
Its a data signal being emitted by this facility as we speak. What does it look like to you?
This is
A countdown.
It started when the kaiju came in contact with the mainframe. Since then, the clocks been ticking.
This sort of alien technology I can hardly believe it.
Use Signal on Tsukasa Okino
What happens?
It may be related to the gravity wave abnormality.
Do you think it might launch?
Lets just continue the analysis. Theres no time for what-ifs. We need to find out whats going on.
And Ioris unlockable again.
Were going to add UFOs? to the board to close this one out.
