Hey. I need to apologize. When we were under attack, I was too scared to do anything. All I wanted to do was hole myself up in my apartment.

I should be better than that. I'm a pilot. Fear shouldn't stop me from doing what I need to do. And to make matters worse, I took a job with the police. I could have put people in danger by not doing my job.

I understand if you don't want to trust me. All I'll say is that it won't happen twice. Not if I can help it.

Yeah. Once. Kind of a token effort.

That's what I'm hearing. They think the monster that appeared was responsible.

1/2

[ineedthemforanalyzing]

Well, I appreciated it.

[ineedthemforanalyzing]

And I guess if destroying the monster fixed the problem, it stands to reason, but that's a big assumption...

[second_destiny]

It'd have to be one hell of a coincidence if they weren't related. A bit too convenient.

[ineedthemforanalyzing]

Related, probably, but responsible? Correlation doesn't imply causation.

[second_destiny]

Sure, but it's a good place to start.

[She nods over the video.]

If we investigate where the monster came from, we can probably find the source of the mental effect and the scorpions, too.

[second_destiny]

Do you know if anybody knows that? Where the monster came from, I mean.

[ineedthemforanalyzing]

I haven't heard anything. We can ask the people who fought it, or maybe one of the Government Persona-users.

[second_destiny]

Do you know who fought it? I could ask around on duty, so that's no problem.

[ineedthemforanalyzing]

It's not on record anywhere, but I think Ms. Misery and Atsuro Kihara were involved. At the very least, they're starting detailed research into the Zodiac phenomenon.

[second_destiny]

Oh hey, I already know Atsuro. That should make things easier.

[ineedthemforanalyzing]

He seems to have an even better handle on the technology here than I do, so he should be very good at the technical side of the research.

If you talk to him, I can try to talk to Ms. Misery. She's...a little more old-fashioned, I think.

[second_destiny]

Okay. That sounds like a good plan to me.
