As you requested, Da Vinci is working on the Ortinax. [k] @Mash Director Goredolf is asleep, and the night staff are all dozing off, too. [k] @Mash I'm the only member of Chaldea currently on active duty. [k] [charaFace B 12] @Mash But why did you want to talk to us alone? [k] [charaFadeout B 0.1] [wt 0.1] [charaPut D 1200,1200] [charaTalk A] [charaFace A 0] [charaFadein A 0.1 1] @Kadoc Just to be safe. [k] @Kadoc After I woke up, I reviewed your records of everything that happened after the Russian Lostbelt. [k] [bgm BGM_EVENT_81 0.1] @Kadoc Including records about the man from Chaldea. [k] [charaFadeout A 0.1] [wt 0.1] [charaPut D 1] [charaTalk B] [charaFace B 6] [charaFadein B 0.1 1] @Mash ...! [k] ?1:...He's not really Dr. Roman. ?! [charaFadeout B 0.1] [wt 0.1] [charaPut D 1200,1200] [charaTalk A] [charaFace A 7] [charaFadein A 0.1 1] @Kadoc I know. [k] [charaFace A 5] @Kadoc I don't know who he is either, but we'll just have to put that aside for now. [k] @Kadoc More importantly, do you remember what he said about there being someone who can't be trusted? [k] @Kadoc And what Archer said afterward about something feeling off? [k] ?1:Of course. ?! [charaFace A 0] @Kadoc I...really can't believe you went and reported everything they told you when they were VERY clear you should keep it secret. [k] [charaFace A 7] @Kadoc I guess you wouldn't be...you if you hadn't. [k] [charaFace A 5] @Kadoc You remember those records too, right, Mash? Did you ever think about who the man from Chaldea might've meant? [k] [charaFadeout A 0.1] [wt 0.1] [charaPut D 1] [charaTalk B] [charaFace B 4] [charaFadein B 0.1 1] @Mash It's all there in the report. [k] @Mash I've given it some thought, yes...but it just seemed too far-fetched to take seriously. [k] [charaFadeout B 0.1] [wt 0.1] [charaPut D 1200,1200] [charaTalk A] [charaFace A 0] [charaFadein A 0.1 1] @Kadoc You're not exactly sounding like a mystery-lover here. So you dropped it? Just like that? Not another thought? [k] [charaFadeout A 0.1] [wt 0.1] [charaPut D 1] [charaTalk B] [charaFace B 7] [charaFadein B 0.1 1] @Mash Not at all. It was the opposite. [k] @Mash I believe I thought about it as much and as logically as I could. [k] [charaFace B 12] @Mash But no matter how much I thought about what he said...it never made any more sense. [k] [charaFadeout B 0.1] [wt 0.1] [charaPut D 1200,1200] [charaTalk A] [charaFace A 0] [charaFadein A 0.1 1] @Kadoc ...How so? [k] [charaFadeout A 0.1] [wt 0.1] [charaPut D 1] [charaTalk B] [charaFace B 0] [charaFadein B 0.1 1] @Mash Well, if someone on Chaldea's staff can't be trusted... [k] [charaFace B 7] @Mash ...that would have mean one of them is a traitor. [k] @Mash But there's no evidence anyone has betrayed us, and more importantly, no motive for anyone to do so. [k] @Mash We call this kind of mystery a whydunit. [k] [charaFadeout B 0.1] [wt 0.1] [charaPut D 1200,1200] [charaTalk A] [charaFace A 0] [charaFadein A 0.1 1] @Kadoc Oh, right. I've heard of those. Whoever told me about them also said: [k] @Kadoc “There's no meaning to be found in figuring out howdunits where mages are concerned. Not when they can do almost anything, including things outside the natural realm.” [k] @Kadoc “But the reason they committed a crime[line 2]the whydunit...that, is always meaningful.” [k] [charaFadeout A 0.1] [wt 0.1] [charaPut D 1] [charaTalk B] [charaFace B 7] [charaFadein B 0.1 1] @Mash Right. [k] @Mash And that clears everyone on Chaldea's current staff of suspicion. [k] @Mash I can't see any reason for a member of our staff to want to help to wipe Earth clean. [k] @Mash If they were just hiding their motivation, they would have tripped up long ago. [k] @Mash If they didn't have any reason to reset Earth, they wouldn't have any reason to help prevent it, either. [k] [charaFadeout B 0.1] [wt 0.1] [charaPut D 1200,1200] [charaTalk A] [charaFace A 7] [charaFadein A 0.1 1] @Kadoc Yeah, that's true. [k] [charaFace A 5] @Kadoc The crime's already been committed here, so why would a traitor go on to help the organization trying to undo it? [k] [charaFadeout A 0.1] [wt 0.1] [charaPut D 1] [charaTalk B] [charaFace B 7] [charaFadein B 0.1 1] @Mash The same goes for the Servants, too. That includes me, Captain Nemo, Da Vinci, and Holmes. [k] @Mash None of us have anything to gain from Earth being wiped clean. If anything, the opposite holds true. [k] @Mash That just leaves Sion, you, and Senpai[line 2]Master. [k] @Mash And your alibi is airtight. [k] @Mash You weren't even at Chaldea at the time. [k] @Mash Senpai, of course, isn't a viable choice either. [k] @Mash Frankly speaking, if [&he:she] gave up on everything,[sr]our mission would fail that very instant. [k] ?1:That's true... ?! [charaFace B 12] @Mash I suppose Sion, as a member of the Atlas Institute, could see this incident differently than we do. [k] @Mash And that, in turn, could potentially give her some kind of motive to betray us...maybe. [k] [charaFace B 0] @Mash But she's already done something that invalidates that theory. [k] @Mash When the Foreign God used a pseudo black hole to destroy the Wandering Sea... [k] [charaFace B 7] @Mash ...Sion stayed behind to the very last second, at very real risk to her life. [k] @Mash If she wanted to betray us, that would have been the perfect time and place to do so. [k] @Mash Frankly, if she had known what was going to happen ahead of time and had then escaped on her own... [k] @Mash ...we would all be dead by now. [k] [charaFadeout B 0.1] [wt 0.1] [charaPut D 1200,1200] [charaTalk A] [charaFace A 0] [charaFadein A 0.1 1] @Kadoc Are you really not at all suspicious that I did something, somehow? [k] @Kadoc Knowing those two, they could've predicted that I'd eventually come back to Chaldea. [k] [charaFadeout A 0.1] [wt 0.1] [charaPut D 1] [charaTalk B] [charaFace B 0] [charaFadein B 0.1 1] @Mash True. [k] @Mash But it wouldn't even make sense for you to have started this conversation if you were the traitor. [k] [charaFadeout B 0.1] [wt 0.1] [charaPut D 1200,1200] [charaTalk A] [charaFace A 5] [charaFadein A 0.1 1] @Kadoc Yeah, and just to be totally clear, I didn't betray anyone. [k] [charaFace A 7] @Kadoc Well, I guess that's not true. I did betray all of Proper Human History once. [k] [charaFace A 0] @Kadoc But I definitely don't have the guts to betray anyone holding the controls to a collar that could kill me at any time. [k] [charaFadeout A 0.1] [wt 0.1] [charaPut D 1] [charaTalk B] [charaFace B 0] [charaFadein B 0.1 1] @Mash I think you have plenty of guts, but aside from that, I agree with you. [k] [charaFace B 12] @Mash Betraying someone to save your own skin, when you know that betraying them would get you killed? [k] @Mash It doesn't make sense, no matter how you look at it. [k] [charaFadeout B 0.1] [wt 0.1] [charaPut D 1200,1200] [charaTalk A] [charaFace A 0] [charaFadein A 0.1 1] @Kadoc And that's not all. [k] @Kadoc Me, [%1] here, the staff, the Servants...[sr]Our actions have all been consistent. [k] @Kadoc My case is more complex, sure, but it still checks out in terms of consistency. [k] [charaFace A 5] @Kadoc Long story short, I betrayed Proper Human History, lost to you guys, got critically injured, recovered... [k] @Kadoc ...and now, I'm helping you guys out with restrictions on my behavior 'cause it beats getting locked up or killed. [k] [charaFace A 1] @Kadoc Sure, I wasn't exactly being virtuous, but I WAS being consistent, yeah? [k] [charaFadeout A 0.1] [wt 0.1] [charaPut D 1] [charaTalk B] [charaFace B 12] [charaFadein B 0.1 1] @Mash That's true. In the end, I have to think the one from Chaldea was mista[line 2] [k] [messageOff] [charaFadeout B 0.1] [wt 0.1] [charaPut D 1200,1200] [charaTalk A] [charaFace A 0] [charaFadein A 0.1 1] [wt 0.8] ?1:But, you DO have an idea of who it could be, right? ?!

[k] @Kadoc I think you can answer it with a search of the library, Mash. [k] @Kadoc And if that leads us to a clear answer, you can just forget all about it. [k] @Kadoc But, if it doesn't...then I think we might be onto something. [k] [charaFadeout A 0.1] [wt 0.1] [charaPut D 1] [charaTalk B] [charaFace B 7] [charaFadein B 0.1 1] @Mash I already went ahead and launched the library's search system, just in case. [k] @Mash What's your question, Kadoc? [k] [charaFadeout B 0.1] [wt 0.1] [charaPut D 1200,1200] [charaTalk A] [charaFace A 5] [charaFadein A 0.1 1] @Kadoc It's about Servants.[sr]Let's start with Da Vinci. [k] @Kadoc Chaldea summoned the original Da Vinci, and her successor unit is carrying on her work in her stead. [k] @Kadoc So we know that Chaldea's her summoner, and that she was helping before the Incineration of Humanity. [k] @Kadoc Nemo was summoned by Sion Eltnam. At least, that's what the records said. [k] @Kadoc He's got some Phantom and Divine Spirits mixed in with him, but we also know his summoning is legit. [k] @Kadoc And the Servants [%1]'s contracted with, including you, of course, should all be fine. [k] [charaFadeout A 0.1] [wt 0.1] [charaPut D 1] [charaTalk B] [charaFace B 6] [charaFadein B 0.1 1] @Mash ...Kadoc, you don't mean[line 2] [k] [charaFadeout B 0.1] [wt 0.1] [charaPut D 1200,1200] [bgmStop BGM_EVENT_81 1.2] [charaTalk A] [charaFace A 5] [charaFadein A 0.1 1] @Kadoc Yeah, I do. My question's about Sherlock Holmes. [k] @Kadoc Who summoned him? And when and where did they do it? [k] [messageOff] [charaFadeout A 0.1] [wt 0.1] [charaPut D 1] [charaTalk B] [charaFace B 6] [charaFadein B 0.1 1] [wt 1.2] [charaFadeout B 0.1] [wt 0.1] [charaPut D 1200,1200] [charaTalk A] [charaFace A 5] [charaFadein A 0.1 1] [wt 0.5] ?1:What do you mean? ?! [bgm BGM_MAP_36 0.1] [charaFace A 7] @Kadoc A Master does more than just serve as a battery for their Servant. [k] @Kadoc Through their contract, the Master serves as an anchor to keep them rooted in reality. [k] [charaFace A 5] @Kadoc That's the biggest reason they need Masters, even when those Masters are of no help in battles between heroes. [k] @Kadoc Compared to that, the magecraft support is just a nice bonus. [k] ?1:But, what about Rogue Servants? ?! [charaFace A 0] @Kadoc Good question. [k] @Kadoc Yeah, there've been Servants in other Singularities who didn't belong to either Chaldea's side or the enemy's side. [k] @Kadoc But it was the land itself that summoned them, using the power of the Holy Grail which spawned the given Singularity... [k] @Kadoc ...in an attempt to put history back on its original track. [k] @Kadoc Basically, Rogue Servants use the land as a kind of vessel, so it's no surprise they can act without a Master. [k] @Kadoc And of course, there were also Rogue Servants in some of the Lostbelts who didn't depend on the Holy Grail. [k] @Kadoc Beowulf in Russia leaps to mind. [k] [charaFadeout A 0.1] [wt 0.1] [charaPut D 1] [charaTalk B] [charaFace B 0] [charaFadein B 0.1 1] @Mash Then, maybe that's what happened with Holmes, too? We first met him at the Atlas Institute, so[line 2] [k] ?1:No, wait. ?! [charaFace B 6] @Mash Huh? [k] ?1:The Atlas Institute isn't where he first showed up, remember? ?2:We didn't meet, but he was at the Mage's Association in London. ?! [charaFace B 8] @Mash O-oh, that's right. I'm sorry. I guess I wasn't thinking straight. [k] [charaFace B 7] @Mash Yes, you're right, Senpai. [k] @Mash He himself said he had left a message for us in London.

[k] [charaFadeout A 0.1] [wt 0.1] [charaPut D 1] [charaTalk B] [charaFace B 7] [charaFadein B 0.1 1] @Mash We've asked Holmes about that... [k] @Mash ...and he said that he managed to prolong his materialization and Rayshifted on his own. [k] [charaFadeout B 0.1] [wt 0.1] [charaPut D 1200,1200] [charaTalk A] [charaFace A 0] [charaFadein A 0.1 1] @Kadoc You mean like Miyamoto Musashi? [k] [charaFadeout A 0.1] [wt 0.1] [charaPut D 1] [charaTalk B] [charaFace B 12] [charaFadein B 0.1 1] @Mash No, he can't do it repeatedly like she could. He said twice was his limit, and that it came at the cost of seriously weakening himself. [k] @Mash According to him, those two forced Rayshifts effectively rendered him incapable of combat. [k] [charaFadeout B 0.1] [wt 0.1] [charaPut D 1200,1200] [charaTalk A] [charaFace A 7] [charaFadein A 0.1 1] @Kadoc I see. So that's why he did almost no fighting in Shinjuku. [k] [charaFadeout A 0.1] [wt 0.1] [charaPut D 1] [charaTalk B] [charaFace B 0] [charaFadein B 0.1 1] @Mash After Shinjuku, he and Senpai[line 2]Master, formed an official contract. [k] @Mash That got rid of his, well, debuffs, but also made it impossible for him to Rayshift alone. [k] [charaFace B 12] @Mash At least, that's what he said before... [k] [charaFadeout B 0.1] [wt 0.1] [charaPut D 1200,1200] [charaTalk A] [charaFace A 0] [charaFadein A 0.1 1] @Kadoc I see... Well, that all makes sense.

[k] [charaFadeout A 0.1] [wt 0.1] [charaPut D 1] [charaTalk B] [charaFace B 7] [charaFadein B 0.1 1] @Mash Still, I can say this much without a doubt. [k] @Mash Holmes, of all people, would never betray us. There's just no way. [k] @Mash When you take all of his accomplishments, his attitude, his motives, and everything else about him into consideration... [k] @Mash ...it's obvious there's no theory that could possibly explain why he would have done such a thing. [k] @Mash I trust Holmes completely.
