While walking away, he sees Clover smile angrily, but thinks his mind is playing tricks on him. Clover says that one of them is actually their kidnapper and that they need to find a way out first before finding out the identity of the corpse. If Junpei did not give the four leaf clover bookmark to Clover, Junpei points out that the dead man in the room is not Zero.

Triggered by pressing the keyboard in front of the monitors. Ace asks for Junpei's help in the communications office and Junpei reluctantly leaves, mentioning that she should tell him the story later. She mentions that she and Snake were a part of this experiment and that Snake was on the Gigantic, while she was in Building Q. She then recalls that one girl died, but Ace bursts into the room before she can tell Junpei her name. The game put the 18 participants (9 on the Gigantic and 9 in Nevada) in a life-or-death situation to make it easier for them to transfer information through the morphogenetic field. She explains that there was an experiment in 2018 that was testing the use of the morphogenetic field and that it was called the Nonary Game. Clover says that Santa was a subject on the Gigantic and that he was unrecognizable due to Snake's blindness.

Junpei tells Clover that she should really be thanking Santa for the "leaf words". She hugs Junpei and thanks him for giving her the bookmark. After Junpei confirms the fact, she starts tearing up and tells Junpei that the body in the shower room is not Snake's. He says that some of his bones were sticking out of his left arm and Clover stops him to ask if he was for sure that the left arm was broken. His bracelet falls off and Junpei comments that the man had a less painful death than Snake. Clover and Junpei proceed to examine the man's body. Junpei is convinced that the obviousness of the man being Zero is just a trick to mock them. She says no, and is firm on her belief that one of the players is Zero. Junpei laughs at Zero's idea of a joke and asks Clover if she thinks the dead man is Zero. When Junpei presses on the keyboard connected to the monitors in the quarters, the bottom four screens change into the letters "Z", "E", "R", and "O". Ace leaves to investigate the communications office, leaving Junpei and Clover alone with the dead man.Ĭlover hugs Junpei after realizing Snake is not dead. Junpei comes to the conclusion that the dead man is not the real Zero, as the evidence is too straightforward. He appeared to have been killed with an axe, as it was sitting right next to him, and he was wearing a bracelet with a zero on the face of it. They walk in to a dead man dressed like a captain. The group suspects that it is Zero's hideout, and everyone is nervous except for Clover, saying that they have nothing to lose. Another door connected to the room has a plaque that says Captain's Quarters on it. They walk into what appears to be a communications office. Upon leaving the wheelhouse, Junpei, Clover, and Ace enter a narrow hallway and open a door. There is also a green chair that has a blood stain on the cushion. The dead body of the apparent captain of the ship is in the room, along with a camcorder, monitors showing different areas of the ship, and a bed with a nightstand next to it. Other objects scattered on the table include a small box of screwdrivers and a long wire.Ī door on the right side of the communications office leads to the actual quarters. One object of interest is a telegraph key, used to send messages through Morse code.

The communications office has a bunch of retro electronic equipment that were used on ships to communicate with each other out at sea. The communications office is entered first, and the Captain's Quarters can be accessed beyond it. The Captain's Quarters is split into two small rooms: The communications office and the actual quarters. The office on the left and quarters on the right.
