[scene: Unknown area on the city outskirts](Several hours ago)

Memo notes connected by different coloured lines were pinned on the city map displayed on the wall. Kiana and Fu Hua had been digging up leads and info of the city's Honkai outbacks. The answer became clear once all the pieces of the puzzle were placed together.

Fu Hua: Kiana, when did you realise that someone was behind the Honkai incidents in Arc City?

Kiana:...I saw a familiar face in a fight against the zombies.

Kiana: It was a woman I saved last month. I was shocked when I saw her again as a zombie... I once asked you if the Honkai outbreaks in this city was due to "her" waking up inside of me again...

Fu Hua:...and I told you that you weren't to blame. I know that to be a fact since I have been watching you all this time.

Kiana: Exactly. You said the Honkai beasts would have spawned around me if "she" were the cause. Your words pointed me to the right direction. The Honkai beasts and zombies are always attracted to high concentrations of Honkai energy.

Kiana placed pins on each and every site of the Honkai outbreaks.

Kiana: Look, the locations of every Honkai incident seemed to revolve around an epicentre.

Fu Hua: The industrial facilities of Heliopolis. Simple yet effective. You astound me, Kiana.

Kiana: I guess being a drifter means you can't be lazy anymore, and this isn't my first time being homeless.

Fu Hua: If you are right, then Heliopolis should have the answers we need. We need more concrete evidences.

Kiana: Is that why you wanted to drag Schicksal into this and have them solve the puzzle for us?

Fu Hua: Schicksal should be concerned since they're aiding Arc City. That man won't allow others to smear his good name.

Kiana: Well, I don't trust Schicksal. I don't know what this Rita is up to......will she pursue the leads we gave her, or will she continue her hunt for me instead? I honest don't care what she does. I'll find out about this myself. It may be a trial for her, but it's a trial for me as well.

Fu Hua: It's time for us to look into this, Kiana.

The two left the room as Fu Hua disappeared, Kiana made it to the rooftop and made her way to where she needs to go to.
