Plan of Action

Plan of Action
Video Summary: What a Proxy can do, is stop the carriage under a cloak of extreme secrecy.
Story Description: You set out on the rescue mission with Nekomata. The plan was simple: once you locate the train, you, controlling your Bangboo, will enter the train's cabin and bring it to a halt.
- (SiblingSibling): (Hello? Wise, Nekomata, can you hear me?Hello? Wise, Nekomata, can you hear me? Tooltip for Hello? Wise, Nekomata, can you hear me?ⓘ /
Hello? Belle, Nekomata, can you hear me?Hello? Belle, Nekomata, can you hear me? Tooltip for Hello? Belle, Nekomata, can you hear me?ⓘ) - Nekomata: Loud and clear! This is cool... I've never seen a Proxy who's able to communicate in a Hollow. No wonder Nicole says you're the best in New Eridu.
- (SiblingSibling): (Always glad to hear that! It's time to put the plan into action and stop the train. Before that, let's go over each step.Always glad to hear that! It's time to put the plan into action and stop the train. Before that, let's go over each step. /
Thank you for your recognition. It's time to implement our plan and intercept the train. Before that though, let's review the essentials.Thank you for your recognition. It's time to implement our plan and intercept the train. Before that though, let's review the essentials.) - Nekomata: No problem, I've got it down pat—
- Nekomata: Our target is Vision's train carrying the explosives. Since it's controlled by a computer in driverless mode, if we can manage to change the train's route, we can force it through a tunnel.
- Nekomata: Then, while the train's slowing down to go through the tunnel, I'll find a way to throw your Bangboo on top of the train!
And then it's my time to shine!
- (Then, it's my time to shine.Then, it's my time to shine. /
Heehee, then it's my time to shine!Heehee, then it's my time to shine!)

- Bangboo (Wise / Belle)Bangboo (Wise / Belle): There's a control room nearby. Follow me.

- (Enter combat)
- Nekomata: Oh c'mon! We're obviously in a hurry.
- Nekomata: These Ethereals really get in the way!
- Nekomata: If only someone could give us a hand!
- (After defeating all enemies)
- Nekomata: Phew... Let's keep going!
- Fairy: Master, there is a large obstacle up ahead.
- (Investigate)

The Train Car's Request
Video Summary: The right time at the right place with the right companion.
Story Description: Along the way, your path was blocked by a train car, and you heard a girl's voice coming from behind it.
- An abandoned train car lies across the road at an unbelievable angle—
- Nekomata: Meow? What's this train car doing here? Proxy, are we going the right way?
- (SiblingSibling): Nekomata, there's no problem with your route. Judging from how the train was damaged by external forces, it's very likely that an Ethereal threw it here.
- Nekomata: Meow! That's some scary strength...
- (SiblingSibling): Your next stop is on the other side of the train car. Do you think you can get across?
- Nekomata: If it were just me, I could climb up there, but carrying the Bangboo too will take some time.
- "U—Umm... excuse me..."
- Nekomata: Meow?! Who's speaking? Is that the train car? And with a gorgeous lady voice?!
- "Huh?"
- Nekomata: Excuse me, Miss Train! We're in a rush here. Could you please scoot aside and let us wiggle past?
Please, Miss Train!
- (ProtagonistProtagonist): Please, Miss Train!
- (SiblingSibling): (C'mon, Wise, don't play along. You'll scare the girl on the other side.C'mon, Wise, don't play along. You'll scare the girl on the other side. /
Don't play along, Belle. You'll scare the girl on the other side.Don't play along, Belle. You'll scare the girl on the other side.)
Stop playing around, Nekomata. Someone's on the other side.
- (ProtagonistProtagonist): Stop playing around, Nekomata. Someone's on the other side.
- (SiblingSibling): (I get it, it's nice to liven the mood a bit when we're stressed, but don't scare the lady over there.I get it, it's nice to liven the mood a bit when we're stressed, but don't scare the lady over there. /

- "Excuse me... are you Investigators from the Hollow Investigative Association?"
Can we help you with something?
- (ProtagonistProtagonist): What's up? Can we help you with something?
- Nekomata: Hang on a sec. Whether we're with the Association or not, shouldn't we find out who Miss Train is first? In this line of work people usually introduce themselves.
In this line of work, people usually introduce themselves before asking questions.
- (ProtagonistProtagonist): In this line of work, people usually introduce themselves before asking questions.
- "Huh? I—Is that right? Sorry, I didn't know the protocol."
- "Um... My name's Corin, I work for a housekeeping company."
- "I'm a Gemini, Rh-negative blood type. I like cleaning, my social security number is—"
- Nekomata: Uhh, you don't have to cover all the details... Anyway, how come you're in a place like this?
- "Th—There was a very dangerous Ethereal nearby. I got separated from my companions while hiding from it!"
- "I don't have any Carrot data with me. If you're Investigators, then you'll know the way out of here, right?"
- "C—Could you please lead me out?"
- Nekomata: So she's just an ordinary person lost in the Hollow.
- Nekomata: But what the heck's a lost maid doing somewhere so dangerous?
- Nekomata: What do you think? Should we help her?
- (SiblingSibling): Not unless we can somehow break through the train car to the other side. Otherwise, to stay on time for our plan, we've got to turn back immediately and choose another route.
- "E—Excuse me. Sorry I was listening to your conversation..."
- "Are you saying if I can get you to the other side... I can come with you?"
- Nekomata: Meow? You can get us through?
- "Almost— Hang on— I'm nearly there!"

Corin, you can get out there.
