Timeline/Resolution

An overview of a series of events which happen in the Universe of AI: THE SOMNIUM FILES, specifically the Resolution timeline.

## **2019**

### Early October

* Hitomi Sagan went to Fuchu Prison to meet with Inmate #89 for one of her regular meet-ups. Afterwards, Hitomi spotted "Shoko Nadami" (who was actually Saito Sejima) arriving to meet #89 himself. Saito met #89, and during their conversation, #89 realized that the person inside Shoko was Saito himself.
* Renju Okiura was in his office at Lemniscate crying, presumably about Manaka Iwai's death almost 18 years ago, when Mizuki Okiura spotted him through the door. Suddenly, Renju stepped outside and drove towards the Cold Storage Warehouse, and Mizuki followed him in a taxi (potentially Takushi Ibarado's taxi operating near Lemniscate).
	+ Renju arrived and lamented over Manaka's corpse, while Mizuki hiding behind the shelves. Once Renju left, Mizuki approached the frozen forklift and found Manaka's body inside. Thinking the body was Iris Sagan, she hurried over to the Sagan Residence and encountered a still-breathing Iris. Mizuki proceeded to convince herself that what she saw was simply an illusion, repressing the memory.

### Around October 25th

* Inmate #89 made a phone call to So Sejima, first answered by his secretary. When So took the phone, #89 told him "A woman named Shoko Nadami knows what happened 18 years ago. Contact her. I realized everything when Shoko arrived. I have to see her again," alluding to Rohan's knowledge of Saito Sejima.

### November 1st

* **Around 4 PM** - Renju Okiura received a call from Saito Sejima (a parasite inside Shoko Nadami), asking to meet him at a factory in the Kabasaki District.
* **Around 5 PM** - Renju arrived at the abandoned factory, where he was sedated/knocked unconscious by Saito (in Shoko). Placed in the Prototype Psync Machine, the two swapped bodies. Saito (in Renju) proceeded to stab Renju (in Shoko) to death with an ice pick, and then ate Shoko's eye.
* **Between 6:00 PM-8:00 PM** - Saito (in Renju) took Shoko's body and drove through the abandoned subway line. He arrived at Bloom Park, strapped her body at the merry-go-round, and stabbed the ice pick in her eye socket. Her phone dropped, and Renju placed it inside the adjacent horse ride's mouth.
	+ **8:05 PM** - Saito (in Renju) sent a NILE message to Mizuki Okiura, and then lied in wait for her. The message read: "Mizuki, Daddy got caught in something serious. Please come to Bloom Park's merry-go-round right away. Daddy needs your help. Please, do as I say."
	+ **8:10 PM** - Mizuki called Ota Matsushita and asked him to come with her to visit Bloom Park, so that she wouldn't go into the restricted zone alone. Ota agreed, and they set out to meet nearby.
* **9:00 PM** - Mizuki and Ota arrived at Bloom Park, and together they found the dead corpse of Shoko Nadami. Ota fled from the scene in fear and dropped his phone in a puddle, while Mizuki stood staring at the body in shock. She saw the silhouette of Renju in the distance by the park's back exit.
	+ **9:02 PM** - So Sejima, curious about last week's phone call, decided to use a rental phone to call Shoko Nadami. Her phone rang inside the horse ride, and with that —along with the sight of the mysterious silhouette—, Mizuki hid inside the merry-go-round pillar out of fear. Saito (in Renju) approached the pillar, locked the inside, and drove away.
	+ **9:05 PM** - After fleeing from the park and realizing he dropped his phone in a puddle of water, Ota went to a nearby pay phone and called the police. Leaving an anonymous tip, he told them that screams were heard from inside Bloom Park, and returned home for the night.
* **Between 9:30-11:00 PM** - With Mizuki hidden inside the locked pillar, the First Response team arrived at Bloom Park and reported the scene. The forensic crew, lead by Araya Kagami, arrived with the police, and Detective Akasaka investigated the crime scene as lead detective.
	+ **Around 10:30 PM** - The corpse found is identified, and the information is sent to Shizue "Boss" Kuranushi. Recognizing the name "Shoko Nadami," Boss contacted Special Agent Kaname Date, to go and investigate the scene himself.
* **10:54 PM** - Kaname Date and Aiba arrived at the scene, and began investigating the corpse. He spoke with Boss (and befriended Kagami), and soon the four heard a noise coming from the pillar. Blasting the lock open with Evolver, Date found Mizuki inside.
* **Around 11 PM-12 AM** - Date took Mizuki to Central Hospital, where she was admitted into a room for the night. Date called Renju, in order to tell him about Mizuki, but Saito didn't picked up the phone. Date stayed with Mizuki the whole night, and soon enough fell asleep.
	+ Aiba entered Date's dreams, as Date began to remember parts of his past, particularly the event in which he accidentally show Hitomi Sagan in 2013.

### November 2nd

* **In the Morning:**
	+ The Metropolitan Police Department broke the news on the death of Shoko Nadami, keeping information down to a minimum. Her name is spread wide, and many people heard the news of her death, including Iris Sagan, Moma Kumakura, So Sejima, and even Inmate #89 all the way in Fuchu Prison.
	+ Saito (in Renju) is taken into interrogation by the MPD investigation team (most likely lead by Akasaka) in regards to "his ex-wife's" murder.
	+ Iris headed to the Lemniscate Entertainment Offices, where she met up with Ota Matsushita. While talking, Iris brought up Shoko's murder as a topic, and Ota confessed to what he and Mizuki saw that night. Soon after, Iris headed to the recording booth for her podcast.
	+ At Central Hospital, the doctors determined that Mizuki was suffering from aphonia due to the traumatic event.
* **9:21 AM** - Kaname Date arrived at Boss's office, and the two discussed the developments in the recent case. During the conversation, Aiba popped out and revealed she identified the anonymous caller as Ota Matsushita. With that, Date and Aiba depart to investigate.
* **10:18 AM** - Date arrived at Matsushita Diner, where he met Mayumi Matsushita. She recounted memories about her husband and the gift her son made her. After finding a Azamon box with an A-set figurine, they learn that Ota could be at Lemniscate.
* **Around Noon:**
	+ **11:45 AM** - Date arrived at Lemniscate, where he found Ota in the middle of sockpuppeting for A-set online using his 3 extra accounts. Date struggled to get his attention until Aiba hacked his laptop, at which point Date used it to blackmail Ota and he confessed to finding the body with Mizuki and keeping quiet about it.
	+ Once Iris's podcast ended, she left the recording booth, met up with Ota, and is introduced to Date, who vaguely recognized her. After several questions, Date decided to leave, but Iris put up a scandalous show on him —with Ota recording— and used it as blackmail to take her along. With that, Date takes Iris to Bloom Park.
	+ **Noon** - Saito (in Renju) is released from interrogation, and soon resumed his master plan for his next target: Iris.
* **In the Afternoon:**
	+ Inmate #89 sent a phone call to the MPD, where Detective Akasaka picked it up. #89 stated that he knows who killed Shoko Nadami, and offered a plea bargain.
	+ Saito (in Renju) made a private reservation for a nighttime event at Sunfish Pocket, then prepared for his next kill by purchasing beer kegs and hooks.
	+ Boss blackmailed the director of Central Hospital in regards to his sexual harassment of the Hospital's nurses. The director allowed Boss to take Mizuki to ABIS to prepare her for a Psync.
* **Around 1:00 PM** - While driving to Bloom Park, Iris and Date got acquainted with each other. The two talked about their respective jobs, and Iris mentioned that she is "going to die soon." Her real name caused some of Date's memories of him with a young Iris to resurface.
* **1:12 PM** - Date and Iris investigated the park. Iris gave off useless mythology trivia and Illuminati conspiracy theories, but then asked about the ice pick in Shoko's eye. Date noted that the ice pick was found in Mizuki's hands, and that the crime scene has no blood around the body. Date determined that Mizuki had pulled out the ice pick from Shoko's body, and that the crime actually occurred elsewhere. With that, Date decided to leave, but suddenly, Iris's brain tumor caused her to collapse. Date carried her to the car, learning she weighs 105 pounds.
* **Between 1:00 PM-3:00 PM** - While driving to the Sagan Residence, Iris rolled down the window and took in the cool breeze and playing with the air. She remarked about how Date appeared to be familiar to her in some way.
* **3:09 PM** - Date dropped off Iris at her house, but before leaving, he spots Iris's mother through the door, and recognized her as the woman who was in his dream the previous night. Iris welcomed Date inside as she served him some tea, and they have a small conversation. Hitomi talked about her relationship with Renju and Shoko, and about Iris. She also mentioned her shoulder injury, while Iris talked about the winter iris flower at home. After some talk, Date decided to leave, and promised to see Iris again.
* **Around 4:00 PM** - On the way back to ABIS, Date and Aiba discussed the timeline of events for this particular case. They went over "Shoko's" time of death and all the new clues gathered today. Together, they concluded that Mizuki couldn't have murdered her mother after all.
* **From 4:26 PM-4:46 PM:**
	+ Date arrived at Boss's office to find Mizuki waiting there. Boss convinced him to Psync with her, in order to get clues as well as to potentially cure her aphonia.
	+ As Pewter prepared the Psync, Date discussed the specifics of the Psync and the case with both him at Boss. Date explains to the mute Mizuki his work at ABIS and the process of Psyncing, and then promised her some food.
* **4:46 PM** - Date and Aiba entered Mizuki's dream of Bloom Park.
	+ They removed an "ice pick" from a photograph of Shoko and attempted to remove a giant cage encasing the merry-go-round. They eventually found two large Bird Cages, one with a torn up picture and another with balloons.
	+ Date chose to lift the right Bird Cage, releasing the balloons inside. After lifting the merry-go-round into the air, the pair find the frozen mutilated body of Manaka Iwai as a repressed memory, which they confuse for Iris Sagan, before the ride fell back down cover it. They stood witnesses to memories of Shoko's abuse of Mizuki, and Aiba used those memories to instead sooth Mizuki. The Somnium ended when they heard a ringtone somewhere within the park.
* **4:52 PM** - After the Psync, Mizuki still hadn't been healed from her aphonia. Worried about finding "Iris's corpse" inside Mizuki's dream, Date called her and asked her to promise him to stay at home no matter what happens. Iris accepted, but only on the condition that Date take her out on a "date." After that exchange, the ABIS team discussed the matter regarding the ringing phone and the appearance of Iris's body. With that, Date headed back to Bloom Park to uncover more clues.
* **4:58 PM** - Saito (in Renju) called Iris and asked her to meet with him about a gig at Sunfish Pocket. Iris, remembering the promise she made to Date just a few minutes earlier, declined the offer, surprising Saito and foiling his plans.
* **From 5:00 PM-6:00 PM:**
	+ Ota Matsushita spent his night traversing Akihabara, visiting many otaku and electronic shops. He purchased a brand new replacement phone in one of the stores.
	+ Saito, with his plans foiled, decided to head to the Sagan Residence in the Meguro District, presumably driving from Sunfish Pocket in Akihabara. Saito took the Capital City Highway through Minato District to reach her house.
* **6:10 PM** - A traffic collision occurred at Capital City Highway, in the Minato District, in which a negligent truck driver crashes into 5 vehicles. Seven people were injured, including Renju's body (hosting Saito), who is in critical condition and is sent to Central Hospital.
* **During the entire nighttime:**
	+ After the failed Psync, Mizuki is returned to Central Hospital. While still mute, she sent a NILE message to Hitomi to be picked up.
	+ Hitomi, preparing to blackmail So Sejima, receives Mizuki's NILE message to pick her up. She left Iris alone at home and headed over to the Hospital.
	+ Hitomi took Mizuki over to the Date Residence, and spent the night caring for her.
	+ Meanwhile, after a full day at work, So Sejima returned to his home, and soon set out to Shinjuku District and visited the Dora Dora Mahjong Parlor, where he competed against three strangers all through the night until morning.
	+ Saito, in Renju's body, spent the night in the ICU at the hospital as Hanayo Nasu took care of him, and potentially helped operate on him.
* **Around 8:00 PM** - MPD released more information about Shoko Nadami's murder, which is broadcasted in radio stations. Following one of these broadcasts, the radio reported on the accident at Capital City Highway, including the arrest of the truck driver who caused it.
* **8:13 PM** - Date arrived at Bloom Park and investigated the merry-go-round. Aiba found Shoko's rental phone inside one of the horses using her X-ray vision, and under Date's instructions she dialed the last incoming call: So Sejima's rental. So picked up his phone while at Dora Dora, but the moment that Date introduces himself as police, he hung up instantly and turns off his own phone, much to Aiba's dismay. With their investigation over, they leave.
* **10:30 PM** - Still worried about finding Iris's body inside Mizuki's Somnium, Date visited the Sagan Residence. He found Iris alone at the house, and she joked with him that he's too early for the date. Iris made him promise to watch her nighttime stream at 1 AM soon, and so Date departed from her home.
* **Around 11 PM** - As they drove away, Date and Aiba felt relieved at finding Iris safe and sound. Date thought back to his conversation with Iris earlier that day, when Iris said "sometime real soon... I'm going to die."

### November 3rd

* **Around Midnight** - Saito (in Renju) woke up at Central Hospital. Saito snuck out of the hospital, despite the injuries to Renju's body, and to the dismay of Hanayo Nasu, his nurse. He headed to a rental car company and took out a vehicle, heading out to the Meguro District.
* **1:00 AM** - Iris began her late-night live-streaming. Ota watched her stream, but despite his promise, Date didn't tune in.
* **Around 2:00 PM** - After one hour livestream, Iris gets a visitor at her door: Saito Sejima, in the body of Renju Okiura. "Renju" convinced her to leave the house and come with him, and so Iris cut the stream short. Ota, who watched the stream, was confused about the stream's sudden cut.
* **From 2:00 AM to Sunrise:**
	+ Saito (in Renju) drove Iris to the Kabasaki Chemical Plant, but he didn't realize until it was too late that he no longer had his sleeping pills in the rental car to drug Iris. As such, Iris arrived at the plan awake and, wary of the situation, resists entering. Saito attempted to drag Iris inside, but she broke free from his grasp and escaped into the city.
	+ After a fulfilling night, So Sejima left Dora Dora and headed home.
* **Morning:**
	+ The Ujisaki golf tournament finished, and the Kumakura Family returned to central Tokyo, back to their offices.
	+ Saito (in Renju) searched all around Tokyo for Iris. Among one of the spots he searched was Ikume Shrine, wherein an unknown individual seemed to have spotted him.
	+ Mizuki and Hitomi wake up, and Mizuki discovered that her aphonia had been cured.
* **9:37 AM** - Date and Boss met at her office, where they discussed Shoko's murder. Aiba reminded Date of the "date" he had promised to Iris, and she suggested that they visit Mama to learn more information Shoko. Boss informed the pair that "Renju" had been in an accident and was recovering at the hospital. Date also learned that Mizuki had someone made it home instead of remaining at the hospital.
* **From Morning until Sunset:**
	+ Iris spent the night walking across Tokyo, surviving from store to store, her phone turned off.
	+ With his plan foiled, Saito, as Renju, called Renju's boyfriend, Pewter, over the phone and asked him to keep him updated on any new information involving Shoko's case. Pewter was reluctant, but —believing to be speaking with Renju— decided to oblige.
* **Approximately 10:45 PM** - Date arrived at Central Hospital, only to discover Renju's empty room. Hanayo Nasu informed him that he had been missing all night after his surgery. Date called Lemniscate and spoke with Ritsuko Enshu, who mentioned that "Renju" had rented out Sunfish Pocket the previous day. Date decided to add Sunfish Pocket among his list of locations to visit in his investigation.
* **Approximately Noon** - Date arrived at Sunfish Pocket, meeting Amame Doi, and found Ota sitting at a table.
	+ Date asked Amame about Renju Okiura, but she says that he hadn't been at Sunfish Pocket all day.
	+ Ota informed Date about Iris's livestream at night, and how a visitor had arrived at her home, prompting Iris to turn off her stream. Date and Ota began to worry about being unable to contact or find Iris.
* **Sometime in the Afternoon** - Saito, as Renju, arrived at Sunfish Pocket himself, frantically looking for Iris. He asked all the mermaids, including Amame, about Iris's whereabouts before leaving to keep searching for her.
	+ Much later in the day, Saito ultimately returned to the Chemical Plant, where he promptly collapsed from all his injuries.
* **Approximately 1:15 PM** - Date headed back home to check on Mizuki, and found Hitomi there as well. Hitomi explained her job as Mizuki's teacher, and revealed to him the past incident in which her right arm was injured and paralyzed. Mizuki, now able to speak, informed Date about what she witnessed on Friday night at Bloom Park.
* **Approximately 2:30 PM** - Date arrived at Marble and spoke with Mama, who had just come back from a break. They discussed Renju and his whereabouts, which included reminiscing about the "watch incident" Date had with Renju. Mama informed Date about Shoko's involvement with the Kumakura Family, and he decided to head to their offices to investigate further.
* **Approximately 3:45 PM** - Date arrived at the Kumakura Office, where Moma, Chinpei, and Dokuta were hanging out. After knocking down Chinpei and Dokuta, Date asked Moma some questions about Shoko.
	+ Moma resisted his questions, so Aiba used her X-ray function and spotted an A-set figurine inside Moma's safe. Date used that information to blackmail Moma, forcing him to kick his lackeys out of the room to talk privately with Date.
	+ Moma explained his connections with Shoko and gave his alibi to her murder, and he gave a detailed explanation about Rohan Kumakura's past and his ultimate fate. Moma also explained that he personally knows Renju, but that he hadn't seen him recently. Date instructed Moma to give him any info he learns about Renju in exchange for a chance to meet A-set in person. Once Moma happily agreed, Date headed back to Police Headquarters.
* **Around 5:00 PM** - On the drive back to Headquarters, Date and Aiba casually discussed Aiba's various functions, including her self-destruct feature. The two decided to establish a set of codes in order to activate the self-destruct sequence in case of an emergency: Code 1 is the password 41205, and Code 2 is if Date tells a lie.
	+ The pair re-attempt to call Iris's phone, but after the call failed once again, Aiba realized that the unknown number from the previous night was available again. They called the number, with Aiba emulating Shoko's voice to trick the caller into revealing themself, and the pair learn that the mysterious caller is So Sejima. With this, they decided to visit him.
	+ Detective Akasaka called Date and informed him of the phone call that Investigation HQ had received the previous day from #89. He played a recording of the phone call, which stated that more bodies would drop. Despite the possibility of the call simply being a prank, Akasaka wanted to ensure Date got this information.
* **Around 7 PM**
	+ After a full day alone in the city, Iris decided to turn on her phone, and found a NILE message from Mizuki asking to stay at her place. She responded, and so they met up later and went over to the Sagan Residence.
	+ Hitomi called So Sejima using a voice changer and blackmailed him for money, telling him to meet at Okiura Fishery Cold Storage Warehouse later that night.
* **7:54 PM** - Date visited So Sejima at his residence and questioned him about Shoko Nadami's murder, questioning about the phone call he made. Refusing to answer questions, So walked back into his home, then escaped out a back exit from his residence. Aiba picked up his GPS signal leaving, and Date leaves to chase after him.
* **From 8:00 PM to 9:00 PM:**
	+ **Around 8:00 PM** - Hitomi began setting up Manaka's body for display inside the warehouse. She laid in wait for So to arrive.
	+ **Around 8:40 PM** - So Sejima arrived at the Warehouse, and finds Manaka's body on display. Hitomi called him again with the voice changer and laid out her terms of the blackmail. With the exchange established, So left the warehouse.
	+ **8:51 PM** - Date witnessed So leave the warehouse as Aiba's battery deplete. Date headed inside the warehouse without Aiba active, and found Manaka's body. Date believed that the body in front of him was Iris Sagan, whom he hasn't seen all day, and so Date departed in a hurry and headed towards Headquarters. Hitomi, who watched Date enter and leave from behind the forklift, proceeded to hide Manaka's body back in its spot.
	+ **Around 9:00 PM** - Date drove back towards Headquarters. While Aiba recharged in the steering wheel, Date told her to call Boss. He informed Boss about finding Iris's body and told her to summon So Sejima to ABIS for questioning.
* **9:48 PM** - Date questioned So about Iris's "death," presenting video footage of So entering the warehouse. So presented his alibi of playing mahjong at Dora Dora, but Aiba declared that his alibi is unreliable. When So clamed up during interrogation, Boss gave permission to Date to Psync with So.
* **From 10:00 PM to 11:00 PM:**
	+ Date entered So's Somnium, which simulated Manaka's murder but with Iris replacing her mother. Date and Aiba spend trial after trial attempting to save "Iris" from being attacked by the mysterious figure, and succeed in knocking the villain into the water, clearing the Somnium.
	+ First response team arrived at the Cold Storage Warehouse following Date reporting the crime, but to their grand surprise, none of the investigators can find any body inside.
	+ After the Somnium, the ABIS team discussed the high probability that So murdered Iris, as seen in the Somnium. However, Boss informed Date that they can't arrest So using only the Somnium as they need more hard evidence. Suddenly, Date got a call from one of the first response officers, informing him that they couldn't find any body at the warehouse whatsoever, to Date's shock. He immediately departed towards the warehouses.
* **11:25 PM** - Date arrived at the warehouse, only to find what he heard to be true, that there was not a body inside the warehouse. He began to ponder an idea, in which he had somehow traveled to a parallel world through the use of Somnia. He headed over to the Sagan Residence, to see if in "this reality" Iris was still alive.
* **11:58 PM** - Date arrived at the Sagan Residence, and found Iris and Mizuki hanging out together. Seeing Iris alive "confirmed" his theory about traveling across parallel worlds. He apologized and heads home.

### November 4th

* **9:32 AM** - Date discussed with Boss and Aiba his theory on the world changing based on Somnia. They also discussed Renju's disappearance and suspicions over So. Date headed out to continue investigating.
* **Approximately 10:00 AM to 10:30 AM:**
	+ On the drive to the Sejima Residence, Aiba discussed #89's phone call to So's secretary. She described accessible knowledge on #89, codenamed Falco, and Date told her to have Boss transfer him to Headquarters for interrogation.
	+ Date and Aiba arrived at the Sejima Residence, and Date proceeded to interrogate So. They discussed the alleged murder of Iris and the phone call made by #89. Date was eventually kicked out without much new information.
* **From 10:00 AM to 3:00 PM** - Boss got in contact with Fuchu Prison to get #89 transferred into Headquarters for interrogation. Over the course of the next several hours, the prison transfer was successfully conducted from Fuchu City to Chiyoda District.
	+ **Approximately 11:15 AM** - Date arrived at Marble, and discussed with Mama the details surrounding the mysterious assassin Falco. They also discussed Renju and his whereabouts, and Date remembered a conversation he had with Renju about his past with the Kumakuras. Mama informed Date that Renju's lover (Pewter) would be visiting the bar at night, and suggests to meet with him to discuss further information regarding Renju.
	+ **Around Noon** -Saito woke up after his rather long nap, his injuries having worsened overnight. Knowing he would need some help to acquire Iris, he hired foreign mercenaries to kidnap her, using Renju's bank account to fund them.
	+ **Some time after Noon** - Pewter called Saito, whom he believed to be Renju, to inform him on an update regarding the case: Inmate #89 was being transported to Headquarters. Being fully aware that #89 is actually Rohan Kumakura inside the body of Hayato Yagyu, he concocted an escape plan for #89, with help from Pewter. No longer needing Iris's body to swap with, he entrusted the mercenaries to Pewter and left him in charge of them.
	+ **Approximately 12:15 PM** - Date visited Hitomi at her home. The pair discussed her past, Iris's childhood, Hitomi's previous boyfriend, and the memories all three had shared, such as the Okonomiyaki war. They also discussed the incident in which Hitomi lost use of her arm, a break-in at her house where the assailant was arrested for his crimes.
	+ **Approximately 1:15 PM** - Date arrived at Lemniscate and spoke with Iris, just before she was set to record some sessions inside. Date told her that he saw "her corpse" inside the Warehouse, and that he had somehow "changed the world", which Iris elaborated that he must have traveled across parallel worlds. Date asked her for information regarding what happened to her the previous day, but Iris forced Date to promise her to take her on that "date" again, before revealing any information about the previous day. Date reluctantly agreed and departed to continue investigating.
	+ **From around 2:00 PM to 3:00 PM** - A-set began a new recording at Lemniscate. She ended her session early at 3:00pm, hoping to be ready for the upcoming date with Date.
		- **Approximately 2:15 PM** - Date and Aiba investigated the Cold Storage Warehouse, but find absolutely no new information
		- **Before 3:00 PM** - #89 arrived at Headquarters. While Boss waited for Date to arrive, Pewter spoke privately with #89 and revealed to him the escape plan. Pewter called a friend with a higher ranking at the MPD and had him organize a meeting with Boss during the interrogation.
		- **2:49 PM** - Date arrived at Headquarters, and Boss informed him that #89 is waiting in the interrogation room. As Date headed there, Boss left to meet with the higher-up that Pewter had contacted.
* **Around 3:00 PM** - Date began interrogating #89, but just as it started, #89 flipped the table on him, knocked him unconscious, and stole his Evolver. Pewter pretended to be a hostage as he lead #89 outside the building without suspicion. Saito, in Renju, arrived with a vehicle, and #89 entered the car as the two drive off.
* **Around 4 PM onwards** - On the ride over, Saito drugged #89 (Rohan) and took him to the chemical plant. Saito placed Rohan in the Prototype Psync Machine, and the two swapped bodies. Saito stays within Falco's body, while Renju's body succumbed to its injuries, killing Rohan inside.
* **4:06 PM** - Date woke up from #89's attack, and Pewter lied to Boss and Date about his escape. Date is placed in charge of finding #89. Not long after, Moma called Date to tell him he had info on Renju's whereabouts, but will only tell him in exchange to meeting A-set. Aiba reminded Date of his "date" with Iris, and so he headed towards Lemniscate to pick her up for the investigation.
* **4:43 PM** - Date met up with Iris at Lemniscate, who was mad that he was late for his "date." Date leads Iris on to visit the Kumakura Office to begin their date.
* **5:10 PM** - Date introduced Moma to Iris, who was rather reluctant to meet a real-life yakuza. After shaking hands with Iris, Moma told Date that Renju was spotted the previous day at both Ikume Shrine and Sunfish Pocket. Date and Iris decided to investigate both locations, as well as investigate the Warehouse and stop by the Matsushita Diner.
* **Approximately 6:15 PM** - Date and Iris arrived at Sunfish Pocket, where they encounter both Amame and Mizuki. Amame explained that "Renju" came to the cafe yesterday, soon after Date left. , and tells Date about Mizuki's state of mind. Mizuki lied about not knowing anything about the Warehouse, and Amame informed Date in private about Mizuki's state of mind since her mother's death. Before leaving, Amame and Mizuki convinced Iris to dance to Invincible Rainbow Arrow, putting on a performance for all the customers to see.
* **Approximately 7:15 PM** - Date and Iris arrived at Ikume Shrine, but don't find Renju anywhere. The two spent some time at the shrine talking about some nearby flowers, and Iris begins delving into her past friendship with her "Uncle."
* **Approximately 8:00 PM** - Date and Iris arrived at the Warehouse, but don't find any new clues. Meanwhile, Date explained the process of Psyncing to Iris, how it combines nanotechnology and the Wadjet System in order to combine two minds together and exchange information.
* **Approximately 9:00 PM** - Date and Iris arrived at Matsushita Diner. Ota made them omelet rice, while the trio discussed pseudosciences and urban legends, all involving ideas behind parallel worlds, as a way to explain Date's ability to seemingly travel across worlds. Once the omelets were ready, Iris dropped her spoon due to muscle seizures induced by her tumor, but she played it off as a slip-up. Date and Iris headed off to continue.
* **Up to 10:00 PM** - Date and Iris drove towards Marble. Date called Mama to make sure Renju's "friend" was on his way, while Boss called Date for an update. Date told Boss about their meetup at Marble for information on Renju, and they hung up.
* **10:07 PM** - Pewter's mercenaries attacked Date and Iris at Golden Yokocho. With the help of Aiba and the power of porno mags and a woman's underwear, they managed to defeat all their attackers and escape Shinjuku.
	+ Date swiped a porno mag and the woman's underwear used in defeating the mercenaries, the mag for himself and the underwear for Reika, hiding them in his coat.
* **10:52 PM** - At Date's Residence, Iris began to tell Date about NAIXATLOZ, elaborating with her delusion by using the Wadjet System and X000639. Date wondered how much he can trust, against Aiba's suggestion, so they head to ABIS to Psync with her.
* **Around 11:30 PM** - Theorizing that Boss may had leaked Date and Iris's locations to the mercenaries, Date decided to trust and called Pewter. He asked if he or Boss are at ABIS, which he responded that they aren't. Date also asked if any spare Psync Machines exist, which Pewter states only a Prototype existed, which was stolen years ago. With that, Date and Iris head to ABIS for the Psync.
* **11:47 PM** - Date psynced into Iris's Somnium, a version of Golden Yokocho rendered in a ShovelForge style. Throughout her dream, different aspects of NAIX appear as antagonistic forces, while Iris tried to lead Date forwards "the truth."
	+ Date and Aiba uncovered Iris's delusions of NAIX, and broke the "game's code" to bypass NAIX. They saw a vision of Iris as a child being absorbed in urban myths, filling her head with legends and delusions. Date and Aiba broke Iris's "core," ending the Somnium.

### November 5th

* **Around Midnight** - Date drove Iris to Matsushita Diner. On the way there, he called Mizuki and asked her to head over to the Diner and protect Iris.
* **1:00 AM** - The pair arrived at Matsushita Diner, and Date asked Ota and the arriving-Mizuki to take care of her overnight. Iris locked herself in a back room, angry at Date not believing her story. Date left to head over to the Sagan Residence.
* **1:40 AM** - Saito, in the body of Falco, called Iris via video chat, and he convinced her to meet with him. Believing she could trust "Uncle," Iris left a note, which stated that she would go to the person she trusts most, and headed out. Mizuki and Ota soon find the note that was left behind.
	+ **1:44 AM** - Date met with Hitomi at her home, where she told Date the truth about Iris's tumor, explaining her delusions. After a lengthy conversation, Mizuki called Date about Iris's disappearance. Date, Mizuki, & Ota began searching for her throughout the city.
* **Around 2:30 AM** - While driving, Date and Aiba wondered who this "person Iris trusted most" would be. They decided that the most sensible option must be Renju, and they headed to Cold Storage Warehouse as their closest connection to Renju.
* **2:53 AM** - Date arrived at the Cold Storage Warehouse, but didn't find Iris there. Suddenly, Aiba picked up on a deceased body nearby with her sensors, and after searching, they found Manaka's body once again inside a forklift, which they confused as Iris's body yet again.
* **At 4:00 AM or 4:00 PM** - Hitomi —who may had already heard the news about "Iris's body" and deduced that it was actually Manaka's body— received a call from Saito, using a voice modulator. He demanded her to bring Date to the Kabasaki Chemical Plant, or else he would kill Iris.
* **9:39 AM** - Date remained depressed, looking out to the water at the Harbor Warehouse District. Aiba spoke with him and informed him that there are contradictions in the case that are yet to be explained, such as the time it took for the body to freeze. Date ventured back inside the Warehouse.
	+ Date investigated the body inside, and discovered that she was pregnant and that she must have been frozen over 10 years in the past. They determined that the body must not be Iris Sagan, but someone else. Based on the information from a previous Somnium, Date decided to ask her assumed "killer", So Sejima. He informed Mizuki and Ota to continue investigating for Iris as he headed towards the Sejima Residence.
* **12:01 PM** - Date visited So Sejima and asks him about murdering the mystery woman many years ago, as well as his connections to Renju and #89. However, he was kicked out by So's bodyguards before gaining any information.
* **Sometime around 12:00 PM to 2:30 PM** - While driving, Date and Aiba discussed the various facts they held regarding "Alice", the mystery woman. They realized that they had seen Alice for the first time 3 days ago within Mizuki's Somnium. Date decided to go find her and ask her about Alice.
* **2:40 PM** - Date visited Mizuki at Ikume Shrine. There, Mizuki told Date the events in early October, where she witness Renju driving towards the Cold Storage Warehouse and found him watching Alice's body inside a forklift. She also informed him that Renju had owned the Warehouse for over 18 years, even after the Okiura Fishery company was given over to a new owner. Using this new information, Aiba determined Alice's identity as the still-missing Manaka Iwai. Suddenly, Date remembered a forgotten memory from before his amnesia, when Falco and Hitomi were on their date at the Harbor Warehouse District, wherein Hitomi told him about the death of her old friend, Manaka Iwai. Date decided to interrogate Hitomi regarding the death of her friend.
* **5:08 PM** - Date began interrogating Hitomi over Manaka Iwai's death, since she couldn't have known she was dead if Manaka was only ever reported as missing. After much prodding without any results, Date decided to Psync with her instead.
* **Around 6:00 PM** - Before Psyncing with Hitomi, Date spoke with Boss and Pewter about the true capabilities of the Psync Machine: a person can transfer their ego algorithm into the subject's body, forcing a body swap across both users. With this new knowledge in mind, Date entered Hitomi's dream.
* **Around 7:00 PM** - Date entered Hitomi's Somnium, where he witnessed the moment where Renju and Hitomi found Manaka's body in the Okutama Mountains.
* **Around 7:30 PM** - Date and Hitomi began to talk, and she told him the truth: Iris is the daughter of So Sejima and Manaka Iwai; Manaka was killed by Saito, So's son, soon after giving birth; Rohan and the Kumakuras at the time buried her in the Okutama Mountains; Hitomi and Renju found her body and took it to the Warehouse, where it was stored for 18 years; Hitomi adopted and raised Iris; Iris's tumor was found in January; on Sunday night Hitomi blackmailed So with Manaka's body to pay for Iris's surgery.
	+ Mid-conversation, Pewter and Boss got a report from the Director of the MPD to halt all investigations into Manaka Iwai's murder. Boss refused, but Pewter drugged her for refusing orders.
* **Around 8:00 PM** - After their long conversation, Hitomi told Date that someone with a voice-changer (Saito) had called her to state that he had Iris, and that the two of them must head to the chemical plant or he would kill her. Before they could leave, Pewter attempted to stop them at gunpoint. However, Aiba deactivated the lights in the room and Date knocked Pewter out. Him and Hitomi headed out to the chemical plant.
* **9:30 PM** - Date and Hitomi arrived at the chemical plant, with some of Date's previous memories and/or memories of other timelines slowly resurfacing. While at Headquarters, and most likely under orders from HQ, Pewter began remotely deleting Aiba's programing, slowly killing her code. The pair continue to investigate, and Date found the Prototype Psync Machine, but was knocked unconscious by Saito, in Falco's body.
* **From 10:00 PM to Midnight** - While Date was unconscious, Hitomi was restrained by Saito, in Falco, along with Iris. While they were restrained, Saito told the two of them the truth about himself and Date, their past, and about body-swapping.
	+ With no way to physically do anything, Aiba called Ota, Mizuki, and Moma, informing them that Date was in trouble and that they should come to the chemical plant to help out.

### November 6th

* **12:55 AM** - Date woke up and had a conversation with "Falco." Using his memories from other timelines, he discovered that the Falco before him is actually Saito. Saito then began to explain his actions throughout the days, from swapping and killing Renju, to his quest to find Iris. After their talk, Saito begins to Psync with Date.
* **Past 1:00 AM:**
	+ Saito Psynced into Date's dream, where he delved further into his psyche. Date was powerless as he saw his own Somnium unfold, retelling the story of his initial body swaps from 6 years ago.
	+ Saito and Date both returned to the original bodies they were born in. After falling off the machine, Date began slowly falling unconscious. Date began remembering the events that occurred around November 2013, involving swapping with Rohan, Hitomi's shoulder injury, and meeting with Saito.
	+ Date woke up, and as Saito was about to kill him, Moma appeared and fought back. Saito managed to shoot Moma in the gut and ran away, and Date took Moma's rifle and chased after him. Date entered the main room of the plant, and found Saito holding Iris hostage up above. Before he could shoot Saito, Mizuki appeared and fought him, while Ota approached Iris and freed her from her bonds. After Saito shot Mizuki in the leg, Date approached and knocked him away, where Saito fled to the rafters.
	+ After searching, Date and the group spotted Saito up above. When they approached him in the upper floors, they found Saito holding Hitomi hostage, demanding Date to throw away his weapon. Unable to take a shot, Date complied and disarmed himself. Aiba called Ota on his phone, who passed the call to Date. She proposed the idea to have Date activate the self-destruct function, and Date reluctantly agreed to it. With that, Date entered his two codes, saying "I hate you, Aiba" as his lie to activate the function. Aiba's self-destruct feature activated, exploding inside Saito's skull and killing him.
	+ Date —in his true body—, Hitomi, Iris, Ota, and an injured Moma and Mizuki all rest by the warehouse's main floor, reflecting about the events that transpired and Aiba's sacrifice. When Hitomi and Iris approached him as "Falco," he reaffirmed himself as Kaname Date, rejecting his old name.

### Rest of November onward

* Soon after her destruction, Aiba's code began to reconstruct within the Wadjet System.
* Pewter was arrested for aiding in the escape of #89.
* The case of Shoko Nadami was closed with the official declaration that her killer was Renju Okiura, who aided in #89's escape and was eventually killed by the criminal. The reports continue in stating that an explosion killed #89 and Date was severely injured, requiring facial reconstruction surgery, which was all a cover to hide the truth about the case and Dates bodyswap.
* The Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department gave a sizable donation to the Sagan family, paying for Iris's advanced operation for her brain tumor, as a way to keep them quiet about the truth of the case.
* While the present case was covered, information regarding Manaka Iwai's murder —and potentially the nature of Iris's biological parents— was released. With that, So Sejima was removed from the National Diet and remained as a normal citizen, but was never arrested due to the statute of limitations regarding his accused crimes.
* Date eventually formally adopted Mizuki as his daughter. Mizuki went on to claim ownership of Lemniscate, while it is implied that Date and Hitomi rekindle some of their prior relationship before his amnesia.
* Ota took on a job as a janitor to financially support Mayumi.
* Chinpei Wagai and Dokuta Yogano were converted into A-set fans by Moma Kumakura.
* One of So's bodyguards quit his job, punching So right in the face as he departed.

## **2020**

### January 3rd

* Moma, Chinpei, and Dokuta attended an A-set live performance, although the details regarding this performance are unknown.

### One particular day in February

* **Morning** - Mizuki made over-easy eggs for breakfast, but Date refused to eat them if they weren't hardboiled. The two got into a heated argument and went their separate ways.
* **During the Day** - Iris's surgery was successful, and she visited the Ikume Shrine along with Date following her surgery. The pair traveled around the city to encounter venture around the city, visiting all their friends.
	+ Date and Iris stopped at ABIS, meeting with Boss. She told Date that she had a surprise for him and knocked him out with gas. Date was transported to the Psync Room, where a silently-transferred Pewter implanted a brand new reconstructed AI-Ball model inside Date's eye socket, all supervised by Kagami. When Date woke up, Pewter apologized for his actions and bid him farewell.
	+ Date parked his car outside the Sejima Residence and approached So Sejima alone. They discussed the events in November, the circumstances behind Manaka's murder, and details Date never discovered leading up to the case.
	+ Date and Iris stopped by the Sagan Residence and met up with Hitomi. The group reflected on their relationship from years past, and the circumstances that led them where they were.
	+ Date and Iris stopped at the Lemniscate Entertainment Offices, where they found a pouting Mizuki. Date and Mizuki refused to speak to each other, remarking about the fight they had in the morning. Date attempted to goad Mizuki by remarking his memories of her crying over his comatose body at the hospital, which confused Mizuki as she never had any memory of that happening. Date also spoke with Ritsuko, whom didn't recognize him after the body swap, and met Takushi for the first time, despite thinking that he looked familiar.
	+ Date and Iris sat with Ota at Sunfish Pocket, attended by Amame. Ota recounted his faulty relationship with his mother and revealed his new job as a janitor. He also explained the status of his novels, which are ongoing but smaller in scale, and as a hobby.
	+ Date and Iris arrived at the Matsushita Diner, where they spoke with Mayumi, who was now more receptive towards Iris than before. They also encounter Hanayo, who had visited to give Mayumi medications for her dementia, and recounts her upcoming wedding in the following month.
	+ Date and Iris stopped by the Kumakura Office, where all known members of the Kumakura Family had become A-set fans. Chinpei passed out from a handshake, while Dokuta mentioned his upcoming wedding with Hanayo, as well has his real job as the local mob doctor —implied to be the same doctor that delivered Iris, faked her birth certificate, and later attended to Falco's wounds at Hitomi's behest—. Moma asked Date for a *puff-puff* from Iris, but Date tricked him into getting *puffed-puffed* by the unconscious Chinpei instead.
	+ Date and Iris stopped by Marble, where they encounter Mama at the bar. Mama recounted the events regarding Shoko's murder, and while she's aware of Date's appearance being too similar to that of #89, she decided that it was better for her to not know the truth. At the end of the bar, a former bodyguard of So's sat, drunkenly remarking about leaving his job.
* **Sunset** - Date and Iris made their final stop at the Harbor Warehouse District, where Iris gave Date one last surprise: Aiba appeared in front of him. She explained how she had been reconstructed by the Wadjet System ever since her destruction, and Date deduced that Pewter had implanted her back into his eye during his earlier visit. With the two reunited, Iris closes off the story with a group rendition of Invincible Rainbow Arrow.
