Part 19: Warp Digivolution?! Hacker's Paradise... Under Zero

The DLC case was actually just a random one involving Mirei and tracking down hackers and defeating them. I was WAY overpowered for it so it was too easy and went by quickly enough. Since the Digi-Farm cases aren't important either I'll just focus on the important ones from now on.

We start off with Ryota needing help choosing a gift for Sakura as she's getting out of the hospital. Seriously? You can't do this yourself and you need detective help for it? Yeah... okay...

So in order to help him we try to think of a 'female friend' that could help us. Unfortunately, only Yuuko or Nokia come to mind so we try Nokia first. Nokia seems to think we have a girlfriend when we ask her when we have her instead and she seems to have the impression that we can't have her to ourselves. You keep telling yourself that...

Either way she suggests accessories. We bring that Ryota and the price is an issue but Ryota wants to use this as an opportunity to tell Sakura how he feels. Specifically, that he loves her. So he wants another idea. Picky...

Kyoko seems to think that Arata is the 'romantic' type so we try him next. He suggests poison and a dagger similar to Romeo and Juliet. NOT THAT KIND OF ROMANCE.

However, he says he was kidding and that was payback for us thinking he was weird before. Whatever you say. So instead he suggests a date at a theme park. We go to Ryota with that but he then says he wants to do something simple yet elegant. WHY IS SOMETHING LIKE THIS TAKING THIS LONG?!

Our last hope is Yuuko. Who actually states something pretty obvious and yet awesome at the same time. That the gift-giver has to put a lot of thought into the present and it's that long process that matters the most instead of the actual gift. In other words, the real point of gifts being 'it's the thought that counts' mantra. Yuuko... you’re the best.

Ryota thinks this is perfect. Yet somehow couldn't come to that conclusion himself. Well... whatever. Case complete I suppose.

Next up one of the Rebel Tamers (Nokia's new 'hacking' group) wants our help keeping an eye on Nokia and making sure she's okay. Well... considering her tendency for trouble... I can't blame him. But this guy... actually is in love with Nokia. WOW. NOKIA FINALLY HAS SOMEONE. To bad she'll likely never know it or turn him down.

Either way we 'view her from afar which is what a man does' according to this guy. She's able to convince someone to join and the guy tries to get a date with Nokia which gets our client riled up and we have to hold him back. Yeesh... seriously?

We continue following her and she tries to get someone else to join but is... interrupted. By someone who claims he's a hacking legend. Really? How is that possible if I haven't heard of you?

Either way our client thinks this is a bad situation and asks us to intervene. Leading to a fight. WHAT THE HELL?! HE HAS A FREAKING BLACK WARGREYMON AND A BLACK METALGARURUMON.

For some reason... I wasn't doing any damage to them. I probably would have won though if it let me. It's not like they were killing my Digimon...

Either way things look bad... Agumon and Gabumon are determined to help.

*takes a drink break*

*Agumon and Gabumon somehow instantly digivolve to WarGreymon and MetalGarurumon*

*the following happens*




Well then...

So we try again. With the unexpected Warp Digivolving help (what is this, Digimon Season 1?) we win relatively easily.

Nokia seems to be realize that we, as well as our client were worried about her. Which seems to make our client happy and give him a nosebleed. Case complete?

Next up... Yuugo wants has a concern over Nokia and her team. Wow. A case from Yuugo.

So we chat with him. He asks us if we like EDEN. It's pretty cool. Get past the hackers and it's a pretty chill place. But Yuugo still believes he's the one that can unite all the hackers and return EDEN to its former glory. If you say so?

Yuugo doesn't want to involve people like Nokia who care for Digimon so greatly as she does. Apparently he only wants the easily expendable hackers involved. What exactly is this guy planning on doing?

But convincing Nokia isn't exactly an easy task. She's pretty set in her way and even if we tried, it's doubtful it would succeed. Besides, I haven't exactly seen anything catastrophic happen yet. Yet is the keyword, but, still. However, we get a call from a Rebel Tamer needing our help and Yuugo decides to come with us.

So we go to the person in question who's being harassed by another hacker. Apparently he's mad because he was called a has-been. Seriously?! Either way we're forced to intervene and the guy is relieved to see us and that we have Yuugo with us. Yuugo then states the obvious to the opressive hacker. If he let something like name-calling hurt his pride, he must not have a lot of pride to begin with. BURN.

Obviously this leads to a fight with a bunch of Ultimates. But help from Yuugo and my own Ultimate Digimon lead to eventual victory. Yuugo then states to the other hacker that Zaxons door is open to everyone before the hacker leaves. He then asks the Rebel Tamer hacker why they joined. Who answers by saying because he likes EDEN and hates what it's become and that Nokia is honest. Well... she certainly is I can at least give her that.

Yuugo then asks us to protect Nokia once again before leaving. But not before saying the next time we meet that we would be enemies. I see... well I guess we'll deal with that when the time comes. Case complete apparently.

Next chapter time. Which starts with Yuugo giving an impassioned speech to a bunch of Zaxon and Demon hackers that apparently their 'Hackers Paradise' has been found. Under Zero. Which was apparently in the original EDEN but then hid by the new founders. It's been located in the Valhalla server and he asks all the hackers to assist him in getting it back so they can reach their paradise. Okay...?

Yuugo seems to want to restore EDEN to the way it's 'original creator intended' and Fei seems to think his dream will come true.

But apparently this was a future scene as the scene said 'Let's rewind a bit' WAIT WHAT?!

We are then 'summoned' by Nokia to meet her in the EDEN Free Area. Which is where I stopped.

Next time:

What exactly is going on here? What is 'Under Zero?' How is it a paradise for hackers? How did they even find out it's in the Valhalla server? TOO MANY QUESTIONS AGAIN.

Also... I've realized something about Yuugo. We've never seen him in the real world. DON'T TELL ME HE'S THE ORIGINAL EDEN SYNDROME PATIENT. I guess that would explain why the ghost boy image looks like him which always appears before an Eater appears... but... still...

To be honest we've never seen Fei in the real world either. We'll see I guess...
