While working to solve the mystery that is Kanai Ward’s Ultimate Secret in the Master Detective Archives: Rain Code, Yuma will come across people in need of help indicated by a green question mark above their head. Speak with them to accept and complete their request to earn additional Detective Points. Requests can only be accepted and finished in the chapter they appear so make sure to complete them as you come across them. This guide will walk you through where to find requests and how to complete them in Chapter 1.
No. 1 Detective Work?
Client: Vivia Twilight
Location: Sun & Moon Hotel
This is the first request you’ll receive as part of the story during Chapter 1 from Vivia. He’ll ask you to track down a copy of the book The Crow and the Dove: Survival of the Fittest and World Salvation. If you exit the hotel, across the street you’ll find a man wearing a suit and trench coat. Speak with this Fed-Up Man to learn about a peddler being pushy to offload a book with crow in the title. Head east down the street going north once you pass the bar. Follow this road heading right into the last alley at the end before the car parked on the side of the road. Talk to the Book-Loving Man wearing a red coat to learn about a nearby bookstore. Take the nearby stairs up two flights then follow the path around to reach the store. Speak with the Bookstore Proprietor behind the counter. When prompted choose Survival of the Fittest and World Salvation. Yuma will order the book for Vivia and the Bookstore Proprietor will have it delivered to him. Return to your fellow detective to verify the book made it to complete the request and receive 100 Detective Points.
No. 2 Paired with the Devil
Client: Merchant Girl
Location: Montclair Street
You can pick this request up as soon as you can access Montclair Street. Speak with the Merchant Girl standing under a tree next to a parked car wearing a beige business suit. She’ll tell Yuma that she ran away from home because of an arranged marriage her father set up for her and will ask him to deliver a letter to her father. Take the note to Kanai Station Square then enter the station interior. Approach the man wearing the navy blue suit in the middle of the area to trigger an event. When it ends, you’ll be returned to the client automatically and the request will be completed netting you 100 Detective Points.
No. 3 Snatch the Snatcher
Client: Purse-Snatch Victim
Location: Kamasaki District
The Snatch the Snatcher request becomes available after reaching Ginma District. Return to the Kamasaki District then head for the center of the western road leading to the Kanai Station Square. There locate and speak with the Purse-Snatch Victim wearing a red trench coat. She’ll ask Yum to track down a thief who stole her purse providing the description that the culprit was wearing a navy-blue jacket, glasses, white pants and a white mask. If you look that the map of Kamasaki District there will be 4 potential suspects marked. The one you want is on the far east side of the area on the second level atop a set of stairs. Interact with him and choose the It’s definitely this person! option. This will kick off a quick event taking Yuma back to the client. The request will complete and you’ll receive 100 Detective Points.
No. 4 Spirited Away
Client: Modest Man / Kind-Loving Woman
Location: Ginma District
You can start the Spirited Away request immediately upon reaching the Ginma District. Speak with the Modest Man and Kind-Loving Woman near the dinosaur bones to learn about how their child was spirited away in the Kamasaki District. Head there and speak with the people at the 3 marked locations on your map. The Middle-Aged Woman on the west side of the map will mention that she may have seen the missing child in the Underground Sector kicking off an event. During the event, you’ll be prompted to save either the Child or Myself. Choose the Child to cause the “ghost” to leave you in peace. You’ll then escort the girl back to her parents completing the request while receiving 100 Detective Points as a reward.
