Space Station Ghost Stories: Fortune Leaf
Credit x 5000
Listen to Adler's "ghost stories"
📍 Herta Space Station Storage Zone
Sounds like Adler has gotten hold of a new "ghost story." Meet up with Adler at the special spot and ask about the story this time.
Are you still serializing your ghost stories?
Adler
Although I have a pile of reports to write, I have not stopped in my journey of searching for new ghost stories!
Adler
But this is probably the last ghost story I can investigate. *sigh* Wen Shiling has really been on my tail...
Adler
The ghost story this time is pretty wholesome. I think you'll like it. Before that, let me ask: Have you ever picked up mysterious paper slips in the space station?
Options
I think so...
Never!
Adler
Really? Then you need to listen carefully, and see if you've picked up the fortune leaf mentioned in the ghost story!
Adler
Really? But I heard from the Wubbaboos that you like to pick stuff up from everywhere...
Adler
There's been a rumor lately that mysterious pieces of paper appear on the ground sometimes. These are called fortune leaves, and people who pick them up are said to receive extremely good luck.
Adler
It's easy to determine whether a piece of paper is a fortune leaf — you will hear a round of applause when you pick one up. It is said to be the way Aeons express their admiration and encouragement for you...
Adler
Someone had claimed to have heard it, and soon got promoted to technical leader in their department!
Adler
But I haven't found out which department this story is from... Could you please find this promoted person and see what useful information you can get out of them?

Where are they?
Researcher at A Loss
Weird. Where are they? Why are they still not here?
Options
Are you also looking for the fortune leaf?
Are you waiting for someone?
Researcher at A Loss
What is the fortune leaf?
Researcher at A Loss
Yes. I've been waiting forever.
Researcher at A Loss
Huh? I'm waiting for people from my department to turn up for a meeting. But you... You don't look like you're from my department. Did you find the wrong person?
{NICKNAME}
(Doesn't seem to be the right person. Let's keep looking.)
🏃♂️
MoveSystem
I want to reset my life...
Sad Researcher
How did my research career end up like this... Am I the only one in the space station having such a bad time?
Options
Have you ever picked up a fortune leaf?
Are you okay?
Sad Researcher
Do I look like I have anything to do with being lucky?
Sad Researcher
Oh, just look at me. I've got "unlucky" written all over me.
Sad Researcher
*sigh* Why am I so unlucky? My career isn't going well, and my family is having arguments...
Sad Researcher
I heard someone picked something up around here? Something that can bring good luck? They got some big breaks after picking it up.
Sad Researcher
I wanted to ask where they got that thing from, and if they can give even a bit of the luck to me... Haha, seems like you're also looking for this thing.
🏃♂️
MoveSystem
...Got nothing to do with me.
Weird Researcher
I don't know. I don't have it. Don't ask me.
Options
You're pretty suspicious.
I haven't asked anything.
Weird Researcher
Not me. I didn't do it. I don't know!
Options
So, you're the one with the fortune leaf.
I heard you got a big break in your career.
Weird Researcher
...So what if I did? And what if I didn't? Youngsters need to be grounded and stop thinking about taking shortcuts.
Weird Researcher
Fortune leaf... Heh, even Peppy won't believe that!
Options
Youth is all about working hard!
I detest those who take shortcuts!
Weird Researcher
Hah, I didn't take you to be so spirited!
Weird Researcher
A lot people have been asking me about the fortune leaf recently. They all think that just picking up a piece of paper would take their career to places.
Weird Researcher
But they have no idea of the prices they must pay! Just look at my old body... Ahhh, never mind. Never mind!
Weird Researcher
I will tell you, youngster, that the good fortunes brought by the fortune leaf is nothing like what you are expecting! Just stick to taking one step at a time!
{NICKNAME}
(I feel there's something deeper here, but I can't get any more answers. Let's return to Adler.)
Tell Adler the truth
📍 Herta Space Station Storage Zone
It feels like there's something deeper behind the Legend of the Fortune Leaf, but there's no way to find out more information currently. Inform Adler of the current situation.
I found it!
Adler
You're back! I was planning to have a break... Did you find anything?
Options
(Tell Adler what you found.)
Adler
Huh? That's it? Nothing more?
Adler
*sigh* If this is the only information, then I can't manage to produce the report. Then I'm gonna lose all the fans I've worked so hard for...
Options
Weren't you doing this as cross-disciplinary research?
So, it was all about getting fans...
Adler
Okay, fine, I admit! Yes, initially this was about science! But then I realized so many people loved reading my ghost story compilation, and I yielded to my desire for attention...
Options
You've lost the purpose behind your research!
So, am I included as a co-author?
Adler
I will reflect on my actions...
Adler
I'll add you in as an assistant!
Adler
*sigh* Now I feel ghost stories only get attention when they have a click-bait title.
Adler
No matter how interesting a ghost story is, they stop being interesting once you've investigated them... I might as well stop writing this report!
Adler
...Well, it'd be a pity not to write anymore. Anyway, thanks for having helped me for so long!
Adler
Come back to find me in a few days. Since you've contributed to the investigation, you should get a copy of the investigation report as a memento of your effort.
