As the investigation progresses, Yidhari's resistant subconscious takes form as Ethereals attacking everyone. Clear them out first.

 Keep moving forward and uncover the truth together with everyone

After defeating the enemies, everyone follows the escape route Yidhari took back then. Continue forward with the group to uncover the truth of that day.

Darkwater Research Center

(Talk to Yidhari)

Komano Manato: This is... Looks like the path that leads out of the Hollow. We must be on the right track, following Hari's original route.

Lucia: Huh? All I see is ruins everywhere... Even the two Proxies beside me haven't made their call yet. Are you sure about this?

Komano Manato: What? I've been to the Hollow plenty of times! Just because you haven't eaten mutton doesn't mean you've never seen a sheep running!

Lucia: Ea—Ea—Eat... what?

Alright, cut the bickering.

Looks like an evacuation route...

Yidhari: Yeah, I remember this place. Dad went ahead to scout the path first, while Mom and I followed along using his route.

Yidhari: Let's take a look around first. I see quite a bit of research equipment nearby. We might be able to dig up some useful info like we did before.

 Search the area for clues together with everyone

Following the escape route, you find some clues scattered around. Go take a look.

Darkwater Research Center

(After the conversation)

(ProtagonistProtagonistWise / Belle): Let's take a look around first...

(Interact with the Traces of Escape)

A rain-soaked map is densely marked with wrong paths, with notes about potential dangers written along the routes.

Numerous used vials of anti-corruption serum are scattered around the route map, doses way beyond what any normal person could handle. Even doctors wouldn't dare use this much on severely corrupted patients.

(ProtagonistProtagonistWise / Belle): (It seems Hari's father didn't have much protective equipment, but rather relied on anti-corruption serum, burning his own life to test and map out the route as he went along.)

(ProtagonistProtagonistWise / Belle): (Better not tell Yidhari (‍the truththe truthText for Wise / about this truthabout this truthText for Belle‍) for now...)

(Interact with the Worn Notebook)

The worn notebook contains experimental records of the anti-corruption serum, documented from front to back.

But if you flip through it back to front, it's packed with all kinds of food recipes.

Komano Manato: What's this? A lab notebook?

But what are these recipes?

Yidhari: These must be my dad's notes. He always jotted down recipes after work and would make them for me when he sailed back home.

Yidhari: His specialty was definitely desserts. Both my mom and I absolutely love them.

Komano Manato: Mr. Murphy seems to know so much...

Yidhari: Yeah, looking back now, he was a great father.

(Idle)

Lucia: Hey guys, I think I found something weird...

Lucia: This shape, it's gotta be a walkie-talkie, right?

(Interact with the Broken Communication Device)

Route Map

Komano Manato: Ready? We need to wrap this up quick, or more Ethereals might show up!

Let's go, time is of the essence.

Just a second.
