At your office, you are awaiting your meeting with the C.P.E., with a nervous Detective Gumshoe pacing the room. Gumshoe is particularly upset at the idea that you might lose your badge, and possibly even switch sides and become a defence attorney. The two of you are interrupted by a nurse from a nearby hospital, Florence Niedler, who says she has a patient who wants to see you. The girl she brings in looks familiar, but you can't quite figure out where you've seen her before... She had one of your business cards on her, which is why she was brought here. The girl has amnesia and doesn't even remember her name. Talk to her:

  • Who are you?: She was brought to the hospital in this condition yesterday. She had nothing by which Karin could identify her, but she was wearing a pin - the Yatagarasu Pin?! Is this Kay? What happened to her?
  • Your name: She doesn't remember anything. You and Gumshoe tell her about who she was before she lost her memory. She is particularly upset when she is told of her past as the "Great Thief". Florence shows you the clothes Kay was wearing when she was found. There's something stuck to them, so Gumshoe has them sent to forensics for testing.

  • Memory loss: Gumshoe tells Kay that she was your assistant. She seems confused by what a "prosecutor" is, though. Karin gives you the rest of the things Kay had when she was found: a Jammin' Ninja Mask, a Letter addressed to Kay, a Ticket Stub, and an artificial Magenta Flower, also known as a corsage.

The ticket stub is for the viewing platform of the Bigg Building. Its timestamp is from yesterday evening, meaning Kay was there at some point. You decide to bring Kay back there to see if you can find out how she lost her memory.

At the tower, Gumshoe reads from a pamphlet that the building is fifty stories tall, and only the viewing platform, located at the top, is open to the public. The Bigg Building Pamphlet is added to the Organizer. After interrupting the shooting of a movie, you head to the viewing platform itself. Kay doesn't seem to remember being here, so you ask her to just tell her whatever she can remember.

Kay's Testimony
- What I Remember -
  1. I... still can't be sure if I've even been here before...
  2. It's so high up, and the wind is so strong... It's terrifying.
  3. I don't remember. I... I just... don't remember anything.........
  4. ........I-It's no good. I'm so sorry.

Rebuttal: What I Remember[edit | edit source]

Press the third statement. She recognizes the cherry tree and remembers that she was standing underneath it to take shelter from the rain. While there, she saw something red. She changes her third statement:

  • But... from under the cherry tree... I think I saw... something red...

Press this statement. You ask if the red thing was the nearby stand. She remembers that she saw someone walking towards her from the other side of it. She updates her third statement again:

  • But... There was someone walking towards me... from beyond the concession stand...

Present the Bigg Building Pamphlet on this statement. It'd be impossible for someone to stand on the far side of the stand, since there is no ground to stand on behind it. Kay insists that that's what she saw - the person, in a red raincoat, walked towards her... and pushed her off the building! Surely nobody could survive that? Kay's Recollections are noted down in the Organizer.

Just then, a police officer comes up to the viewing platform with an announcement: a body has just been found in the building! The victim is a woman, and her name... is Kay as well?
