Dialogue

Melee Clash (I)

(Start the commission): While staying at the video store...

Anby takes a commission from a certain someone with help from the Proxies for putting them in contact.

Silver Soldier (I)

Talk to Yanagi

Anby returns to Lumina Square to report to someone about the mission

(Idle): Tsukishiro Yanagi: Is the combat mission over...?

(Talk to Tsukishiro Yanagi): Tsukishiro Yanagi: You're back. Have you already completed the combat mission?; Anby: It's done, as you requested.; Tsukishiro Yanagi: You are truly dependable, and you have my sincerest thanks.
Had the Proxy not insisted, I would have been reluctant to trouble you with such a trivial matter.; Anby: It's okay. Though we may have had a small conflict the last time we met, at least things turned out well.; Tsukishiro Yanagi: I remember our Asaba seemed gave you some trouble back then.; Tsukishiro Yanagi: ...To be perfectly honest, the mission you just did was originally his.
But he sent a last-minute leave request right before the mission... He's never done anything like that before...; Anby: ...; Tsukishiro Yanagi: Oh! Sorry. I was just talking to myself.
In exchange for your assistance, I've brought the intelligence you requested.; Anby: Please tell me.; Tsukishiro Yanagi: For the record, allow me to clarify that this information does not fall under the scope of the confidentiality agreement of ex-Defense Force administrative officer Tsukishiro Yanagi.
It is intelligence from Tsukishiro Yanagi, an intelligence officer of HSO, who inadvertently learned of it while investigating other matters.; Tsukishiro Yanagi: Regarding what happened back then, your guess was correct.; Anby: ...; Tsukishiro Yanagi: The Silver Company archives were sealed, but there is indeed one record of someone retrieving information from them.; Tsukishiro Yanagi: The officer who accessed the archives claimed it was simply an error.; Tsukishiro Yanagi: But his actions of consecutively infiltrating four officers' offices, stealing access keys, and using them to view an archive that would be absolutely impossible for someone of his rank to access cannot be explained away as an accident.; Anby: Where is this person now?; Tsukishiro Yanagi: The answer to that is quite surprising. He only spent 18 months in the Defense Force prison before regaining his liberty.; Tsukishiro Yanagi: I felt curious and casually investigated his current status...
He is no longer alive. Before his death, he was employed as security personnel at a TOPS pharmaceutical corporation's subsidiary company.; Anby: ...This is the kind of plot I hate the most.; Tsukishiro Yanagi: It's like a terrible movie. Even worse, this is reality.; Tsukishiro Yanagi: There are two things that are bugging me. May I...?; Anby: Yes, go ahead.; Tsukishiro Yanagi: The first thing is... I've been wanting to point out that there's a bit of blood on your cheek. It would be better to wipe it off.
I forgot my handkerchief. If it's convenient, let's go to the pharmacy to buy some wet wipes.; Anby: And the other thing?; Tsukishiro Yanagi: Let's go to the pharmacy first. I can use the time to gather my thoughts.

Go to the pharmacy with Yanagi

Anby: Have you... heard of me?

Tsukishiro Yanagi: Don't worry, I don't know any details.

Tsukishiro Yanagi: I just heard some... rumors. I'm an intel officer, after all.

Tsukishiro Yanagi: When we first met, I didn't even recognize you.

Tsukishiro Yanagi: You were so different from what the rumors said.

Tsukishiro Yanagi: Perhaps I should get some new glasses.

(Interact with Pharmacy): Tsukishiro Yanagi: Right here... Please turn your face this way a little bit more...; Anby: You're not done yet...? My cheek... feels ticklish...; Tsukishiro Yanagi: Okay, it's gone.; Anby: Thank you. What's the second thing?
The thing you were talking about that was bugging you.; Tsukishiro Yanagi: Your cheeks... are extremely warm and incredibly soft. Finer than peach fuzz, with a delicate rose hue from healthy capillaries, an elastic feel, full of collagen...; Tsukishiro Yanagi: Even my skin wasn't this perfect when I was 17 years old.; Anby: You're confusing me. What are you trying to say?; Tsukishiro Yanagi: This is my first time meeting a Silver Company soldier.
...From any angle I look at you, you seem indistinguishable from... any other soldier.; Anby: ...; Tsukishiro Yanagi: I must apologize. Collecting intelligence by all means is the duty of an intelligence officer.; Tsukishiro Yanagi: Any and every piece of intelligence could be crucial. It could directly or indirectly save the lives of my companions in the future.; Tsukishiro Yanagi: So, when the opportunity to collect intelligence is right before my eyes—
Please forgive me. I spent the whole way here mentally preparing myself, but in the end, I simply let such a good opportunity slip away.; Anby: You should think about your own life more.; Tsukishiro Yanagi: I'm really... truly sorry...; Anby: We'll call it even this time.; Anby: I understand that just by meeting me here, you have already taken a risk. Moreover, you have brought me the intelligence I needed, which confirmed what I long suspected.; Tsukishiro Yanagi: Thank you for your forgiveness. If we have the chance to work together again, I will restrain the behavior of my squad members, including my own.; Anby: I know you will.; Anby got the information she wanted from Tsukishiro Yanagi.
However, she still needs to gather more intel...

Melee Clash (II)

(Start the commission): To obtain the intel she needs, she agrees to help that someone.
So she goes to collect observation data from a certain Hollow.

Silver Soldier (II)

Talk to Grace

Anby returns to Sixth Street to deliver the Hollow data information

(Idle): Grace: Data collection complete!

(Talk to Grace): Grace: Thanks, Anby of the Cunning Hares! That Hollow has been a bit unstable recently, but thanks to the environmental data you brought back this time, I can now test my children without worry.; Anby: No problem. The Proxy said if I helped you out, I'd get burgers tonight.; Grace: By the way, this new outfit of yours is pretty cute~; Grace: And... it seems kind of familiar...; Anby: ?!; Anby: Have... you seen it before? Someone wearing a military uniform similar to mine? Perhaps... someone who might even look quite similar to me...?; Grace: Ooh... now that you ask, I'm not quite sure. I'm just the worst at remembering people's clothing, never mind their faces...; Anby: ...; Grace: However, I think I saw them at the Turbo remodeling shop. Enzo might remember more clearly than me.; Anby: Is that so? Could you come with me to ask Enzo about it?; Grace: Go to Turbo together? Sure.

Go to the "Turbo" remodeling shop with Grace

Grace: Sorry, I'm not great with faces.

Grace: Sometimes, I think my kids are much smarter than I am...

Grace: But I won't have them do the Forbidden Fruit test.

Anby: So you can remain their master forever?

Grace: Hahahaha! No, no, I'm just their mother.

(Interact with Remodeling Shop): Enzo: A customer wearing the same uniform as Anby... I remember now.; Enzo: That kid was wearing a hat and sunglasses, so I couldn't see her face too clearly.; Enzo: She wanted to buy equipment in bulk, preferably from the military or some organization's discarded inventory.; Enzo: It sounded like she wanted to equip a group of mercenaries, or something like that.; Anby: Did you... make the sale...?; Enzo: Anby, now you're messing with me too? Turbo is an honest and law-abiding little shop that only provides repairs for automobiles, Bangboo, and other home appliances. Nothing more.; Enzo: And even if we take the most extreme hypothetical — and it's just hypothetical — that such a pipeline did exist, I would only arrange it for regular customers, not some untrustworthy stranger hiding their identity.; Grace: Come on, where's the discount for loyal customers, mmm?; Enzo: Heh, I don't even give a discount to (‍WiseWiseText for Wise / BelleBelleText for Belle‍). You can even ask (‍himhimText for Wise / herherText for Belle‍).; Enzo: Though, I remember that weird kid was mumbling something... What was it again...; Enzo: "Echoes"... "Echoes of"... "Silver," or something like that...; Anby: ...; Anby: Do you... really not remember where she might have gone...? Are there really... no other clues?; Enzo: Let me think... Grace, wasn't another customer here too?; Grace: Hmm?; Enzo: I remember now. It was like this, Anby — there was another regular customer here that day, a female high school student. Her phone screen was cracked, and I helped her replace it, and applied a screen protector for good measure.; Enzo: I remember very clearly. She left at almost the same time as the kid, which might mean she might have seen where she went.; Enzo: You might be able to get more information from her.

Silver Soldier (III)

Talk to Ellen

Following the lead from Uncle Enzo, Anby tracks down someone who knew about what happened that day.
Just as she expected, it was a familiar face—

(Idle): Ellen: Oh... it's you.

(Talk to Ellen): Ellen: You're... Anby, from the Cunning Hares, right?; Anby: That's me. Enzo said that you saw a woman wearing a uniform similar to mine.; Ellen: Mmm. I'd never forget such a cute outfit.; Anby: I want to know anything and everything about her. Anything at all.; Ellen: I'm afraid I'm gonna have to disappoint you. All I remember is the outfit...; Ellen: That day, I had just left Turbo when my friends sent me some texts.
I looked down to reply, and she was already gone by the time I looked up again.; Anby: ...; Ellen: Still, she kept talking about this "Silver's revival" thing while she was in the shop. I saw a few discussions about it on Inter-Knot.; Anby: On Inter-Knot?!; Ellen: If you're interested, you can go check out Inter-Knot... *Yawns*...; Anby: Thank you, Ellen.
Then, as agreed, allow me to do you a favor.; Ellen: Are you really going to help? It's not like I gave you some kind of incredible intel. Letting you go fight for me after this feels a little bit...; Anby: You've already helped me a lot. I'm more than happy to— *growling*...; Ellen: Is that... your stomach?; Anby: Yes. I'm hungry.; Ellen: ...Ha. Well then, let me treat you to something. What would you li—; Anby: Burgers. Thank you.; Ellen: Wow, you jumped in fast.

Go to the convenience store with Ellen

Ellen: Rina definitely wouldn't ever make burgers.

Ellen: 'Cause... it ain't elegant enough? Or something.

Anby: Burgers are perfect. Very... elegant.

Ellen: You guys can fight over it.

Ellen: But I'll be on Rina's side, sorry.

(Interact with Convenience Store): Ellen: Is just one hamburger enough?; Anby: Yes, it's enough for me. Thanks, Ellen.
Tell me about the upcoming commission.; Ellen: It'll be a bit tricky.
But... well, (‍WiseWiseText for Wise / BelleBelleText for Belle‍) said it definitely won't be a problem for you.; Ellen: You probably won't encounter anyone asking questions, but if you do, just say you're a maid from Victoria Housekeeping... Got it?; Anby: Got it. I am a maid.; Ellen: If they keep pushing and ask why you're not dressed up as a maid... Just say that the outfit you're wearing right now is the latest maid uniform.; Ellen: It's just not that widely known because it's the newest trend among high school girls, that's all.; Anby: Got it. Wait for my good news.; Anby: This maid is ready to clean some clocks.; To repay Ellen for her intel, Anby needs to help her complete a combat commission...

Melee Clash (III)

(Complete the commision): The intel Anby obtained led her to that mysterious post on Inter-Knot.
She must trace this to the source... and stop Silver's revival.
