Chapter 02 - Digimon Story: Cyber Sleuth Guide - IGN (2024)

CHAPTER 2"Search for Father: Yuuko Kamashina"

Kyoko gives you the firstCase: Top Quality Beans. Go to the Whiteboard and click on it to accept it. Talk to everyone who will talk to you in the 4 floors of Nakano (Broadway).

When you exit the Agency, Mirei makes an appearance to fit you with new hacking programs into a glove. She asks that you come speak with her often at the DigiLab and seems to have some clue what the future holds for you.

There is an Augumon Expert Medal on the 2F as well as Nokia with a Red Exclaimation Point over her head. Be sure to talk to her. She is worried about the two Digimon who protected her, glad to see you safe in the real world, and very angry to find out Arata was a Hacker already and pretended not to be.

To calm herself down she mentions throwing on the new Jimiken single to get her "Freak on".

The 4F is where you will find Oruru, the Offline Colosseum hostess dressed as a cute kitty-cat maid. The Medal Maniac and the K-Cafe. Be sure to hit up the Medal Maniac whenever you are on the 4F. He will pay to take any Medals you have collected out of your inventory, and if you wish...you can view them here.

Then, enter the K-Cafe door on the 4th floor by the Medal Maniac to get the coffee beans she needs. Remember this spot. It is where many of your future clients will wish to meet you. It is also where you find the resolution for the air-conditioning problems in Broadway.

When you are done, return to the Whiteboard to finish (close) the case and collect your reward. At this point, Kyoko wants to send you out onto the streets to test the stability of your new Half-Cyber Body by asking questions on the streets of Shinjuku.

Before you go, Kyoko will inform you that your mother is aware you have been put into a coma. She says it is fortunate that your parents are working abroad for such a long time. They were going to return, but she told them you were released from the hospital at the last minute and requests that you call them to inform them you are doing well.

In Shinjuku, you will immediately see Arata with a large exclaimation point over his head. Talk to him. He is stunned and excited to see you are well, but very angry over the administration stonewalling him about the monster you all saw in Kowloon. He knows they know it exists and he is determined to discover why they are not talking...He leaves soon afterward.

Talk to everyone, especially those with exclaimation points. There is an Arcadiamon Metal in the upper left corner of the street/sidewalk. This will be your first encounter with Ryota and Sakura.

Ryota is surprised to see you are not at your mom's house for the weekend overseas. Sakura is in lala land daydreaming about the Rock Star Jimikin...ignoring everything else. Ryota is worried and upset, but nothing gets through to her. He asks if you have heard them yet.

They threw you a going away party, but he is happy he will get to see you since you decided to stay...even if you are skipping school. They leave and you should return to the Detective Agency to talk to Kyoko.

She is pleased no one is talking about your fall from DigiLand much and no one seems to realize you are not entirely real. She also tells you your EDEN account has been frozen, so she has created another one for you to use.

Yuuko Yamashina walks in as a new client to give you a quest to find her father, Makoto Yamashima. There are multiple avatars using the account in EDEN, so Kyoko tells you to ask around about "Account Raiding" in the EDEN servers. You Connect Jump into the TV Screen to get there.

There is a Flashy Dude in a blue jacket of the EDEN Entrance that tells you Zaxon did that. He says you should ask around in Kowloon to see if the Hackers have any information. This gives you the keyword "Zaxon". There is a shop here if you need to sell or buy anything before you go on further.

In Kowloon Lv.1, you will find a Sad Ex-Zaxon Hacker in Galacta Park. He gives you the Zaxon Forum URL so you can go talk to them personally. Use the Exit to go to there. A Zaxon guy with a green hoodie gives you a tip to go to Kowloon Lv.2 with a Zaxon mask. He says you should find what you seek if you dare to go there...it is dangerous.

There is a Mojyamon Medal to the left if you look closely.

Hit the Exit and go to Kowloon Lv.1. You have to open the Firewall at the back to use the elevator. Press the "Square" button to use your Hacker skills.

• These are useful for all sorts of things. It takes a lot less out of your thumb to level up with the Function Call Lv.2 by hitting "Square" and "X" that it does to run about in one spot. You need a Rookie or better Free Type Digimon to use the skill, but it is worth it. Especially, if you De-Digivolve down to baby form and need to Evolve it back up before moving away from a DigiLab Terminal.

Take some time to level up if you having been doing this already and grab any loot you see in boxes. Show the mask to any Zaxon members blocking your path and they move away to let you pass. You should pass 3 more Medals: YukimiBotamon, Dodomon and Yuramon. Continue through the area until you find a second DigiLab terminal.

You will run up on a large group of Zaxon Hackers here, trying to sell hacked accounts to Mephisto, but something is wrong with their oh-so-normal contact. He is acting strangely. When he gets upset, out pops a Growlmon to battle you. You get a Memory UP at the end that lets you equip more Digimon, or higher evolutions. Then, Kyoko calls...

You get 1,000 CSP. After a brief discussion at the Agency Office, you go to the address listed on the account info. There you meet a man by the name of the one you seek, but you also meet his daughter who is clearly not Yuuko. Her name is Chika. When you mention the EDEN account, both react badly and Chika tells you leave as she slams the door.

You return to the office to await your deceptive client. Yuuko arrives. You give her the info she paid you to find and as she is leaving Kyoko tells her to return anytime and to feel free to use her real name next time. You are prompted to save at this point...

This is a good time to clear some cases. If your DigiFarm has been Investigating you should have several lost and found cases for the Kowloon area as well as Bad Hacker quests for Mirei.

Once you leave the office by the door, Kyoko calls to tell you she has a new case on the board: Wow! Mysterious Digital Face. At some point during your clearing cases a girl right outside the office door will pop up an exclaimation point about the air conditioning glitch.

The Story continues only when you select Kyoko's case. You will need to go to Kowloon Lv.2 for it and use the new keyword to question Hackers. You should find a Whimsical Hacker near a chest past the halfway point who leads you in the right direction. You get the keyword "Police-Hating Hacker" and are told to go look for him in Shinjuku. Talk to all of the Hackers again on your way back to the Exit.

In the back half of Shinjuku you question a cop who tells you to go back to the Internet access point at the front of Shinjuku. A man stands here. Talk to him. When he flees you are yanked into EDEN to fight the Vegiemon possessing him. The case ends. Don't forget to go to the Whiteboard to close it.

Don't forget the air conditioning. There is a boy near a icy blowing vent that tells you there is a problem as well. Check out the vent...This should give you the Time Capsule Snow Woman case. Go to talk to the owner of the K-Cafe. He will give you all of the details you need to know. You will find a cuddly Wanyamon being attacked by a Frigimon. It attacks you, as well.

Once this case closes as well, the Chapter ends.
