Dialogue
Fake Deadline
The following is recorded in the Video Archive
"Fake Deadline"Video Summary: Deadlines only work when pushed to the absolute limit...
Story Description: Astra excitedly tells Evelyn about the Proxy siblings and how they helped her find Joran's final work. Evelyn reminds Astra that the deadline for the concert is approaching, and Astra tries to subtly change the subject. However, Evelyn is not fooled. Just then, the two notice a suspicious car following them. Evelyn decides to use a Hollow to shake off the pursuers.
- Astra gets in the car and stretches out. A constant, nagging noise draws her attention.
On a second glance, she sees a man on the car's videophone, shouting angrily... - Evelyn presses the mute button casually.
With the sound cut off, the man's angry expressions look even more ridiculous... 
- Astra Yao: What's Mr. Hobson blabbing about this time?
- Evelyn: It's gotta be a whiny version of "Please don't run off alone and stay safe before the show."
- Evelyn: I mean, if there's anything that needs to be done, just give me the orders. There's no need to put yourself at risk.
- Astra Yao: Eve, are you... angry?
- Evelyn: No. Just a straightforward, calm protest with no whining.
- Astra Yao: Don't be mad. Check out what I found — it's Joran's legacy work, the legendary secret record!
- Astra Yao: I told you before, remember? After Joran left the agency, he held a small fan meetup in a music store.
- Astra Yao: I was there! And so young at the time. I never thought I'd find a recording from that day!
- Astra Yao: It's all thanks to the Proxies. I definitely would've gotten lost without them.
- Evelyn: ...You trust people too easily. How do you know anything about these random Proxies you found on Inter-Knot? Who they really are, what their motives might be, or if they can be trusted?
- Astra Yao: They're not random Proxies. They're friends I knew before. I told you about them — the siblings who run the video store on Sixth Street!
- Evelyn: ...
- Astra Yao: Wh—What?
- Evelyn: If you already knew they were Proxies from the start, you could've just DM'd them on Knock Knock. Why bother making a formal Inter-Knot post?
- Astra Yao: Um... true. I was just being stubborn out of habit... Sorry! I was wrong~
- Evelyn: But they've managed to keep their Proxy identity hidden from close friends, and they use a Bangboo to handle commissions. That means your friends are pretty careful and dependable. That's reassuring.
- Evelyn: Hmm, if we invite them to the concert, then they might just come in handy. Let me think about where to station them...
- Astra Yao: Wow, Eve, you're surprisingly generous with compliments — for other people, that is. Wait, you're not planning to run a background check on them, are you?
- Evelyn: Having every bit of information allows me to prepare for any scenario — like if you decide to suddenly run off.
- Astra Yao: So then... What gave me away this time?
- Evelyn: You borrowed the make-up artist's phone to post on Inter-Knot; pre-opened a bathroom window[Note 1] before the press conference for your escape... I have to say that the most creative idea this time was riding a public bike into the Hollow.
- Astra Yao: Aw, I thought my plan was flawless... You're so sharp, Eve! Before you were a manager... were you a detective? Or a PubSec officer?
- Evelyn: Not exactly, but close enough.
- Astra Yao: Huh~ So secretive. If you tell me, I promise I won't run off next time. I swear!
- Evelyn: A professional spy.
- Astra Yao: Hahaha~ Huh? Hang on, a professional spy... That's so cool! Sounds like the perfect inspiration for a song.
- Evelyn: ...Are you really thinking of singing a song about being a professional spy at the New Year's concert?
- Astra Yao: Huh? Is that not allowed?
- Evelyn: ...So how's the concert show-stopper coming along? Today's the production deadline.
- Astra Yao: Huh? Um... uhhh...
- Evelyn: Okay, so we went against the entire board to buy Starloop for a New Year's concert, publicly announced your new single, and now you have writer's block.
- Evelyn: Did I miss anything?
- Astra Yao: Yes~ Today's just the official deadline, and, I know you've prepared plenty of fallback deadlines.
- Evelyn: ...
- Astra Yao: Okay, okay, okay. I'll do it! I'll do it right now! But... there's no piano here?
- Astra Yao: Can you help me, Eve?
- Evelyn: ...I don't sing, you know that.
- Astra Yao: That's okay. You can just hum along with my cues, like this...
- Evelyn's voice flows along Astra's fingertips, rising and falling into a gentle, melodious tune.
- Astra Yao: Wow...
- Evelyn: You're not tricking me into singing for you, are you...? Hmm...
- Evelyn swiftly reaches out a hand to press firmly onto Astra's shoulder —
using her body weight to press her down into the small gap between her seat and the floor. - Astra Yao: What's wrong?
- Evelyn: We're being tailed. Those cars have been following us a while now.
- Evelyn: There's a Companion Hollow in the area. Let's use it to lose those unwelcome followers!
- (Open tutorial (Character Intro) Evelyn)
- (Approach the marked location)
- Assaulter: Hmph, do you think hiding in a Hollow will make everything fine?
- (After defeating the enemies)
- Evelyn: I arranged for someone to meet us before we entered the Hollow.
- Evelyn: It shouldn't be far. Follow me.
- (Approach the marked location)
- Assaulter: Where are you running off to, Astra Yao?
- Evelyn: I'm your opponent. You are not worthy of speaking to Miss Yao.
- (Approach the marked location)
- Assaulter: Ha, the intel was right. You really can fight.
- Assaulter: So this is where your true strength lies?
- Assaulter: I knew you were just a talentless company puppet!
- Evelyn: Shut it!
- (Talk to Odeum HAE Security)
- Astra Yao: Eve! Are you alright?!
- Evelyn: I'm fine. But we can't let our guard down just yet. You guys, take Miss Yao back.
- Odeum HAE Security: Right!
- Astra Yao: What about you, Eve? Aren't you coming? It's dangerous to go alone!
- Evelyn: There's something that bothers me. I have to thoroughly investigate the goal of those attackers.
- Evelyn: Miss, you should take the car back first. I will be there shortly.
- Astra Yao: But... Oh, I see. You must have your reasons.
- Astra Yao: Then I'll head back first. Eve, make sure to come back safely!
- Evelyn: I will.
- Evelyn, watching Astra leave safely, lets out a sigh of relief—
- Evelyn: (The assaulters mentioned some "intelligence.")
- Evelyn: (Miss Yao's clearly being followed somehow, her position must've been leaked. Besides... hmm, who else could it be?)
- Evelyn: (Thankfully, they're quite unprofessional.)
- Evelyn: (When we fought just now, they didn't even realize that I had knocked their communicator off...)
- Evelyn: (As long as I find the comms, I can find out who's behind those attackers. Also, how exactly did Miss Yao's schedule get leaked?)
- (Interact with Strange Stuff)
- Evelyn: Found it. This is it.
- Evelyn: Hm... It's completely wiped. So this is why they're not worried about losing the communicator.
- Evelyn: But, like they said, no data can be completely erased.
- Evelyn: Guess it's time to meet an old friend.
- Evelyn: The secret code is... Oh, I remember. It's the payphone on Sixth Street.
