Point of Order

Hitori Togusa shared a photo. 5/11 near Recolle Police Station

So. A few things. First. Dave! I want my membership card! Talking robot spider tank with a grenade launcher. Apologies to Koutarou for stealing some of his modeling clay to make my toy up there. I still remembered nothing about myself, though, so the betting pool is still open. Anyone who wants in on the 'What Is Togusa Repressing' pool, let me know. I think the odds on 'samurai' just got a lot longer, though. The second thing is a little more important. A few of us made it into the subway, which is supposed to be shut down, the lines were damaged. The trains sure aren't running, but either it's shut down intentionally, or someone has taken advantage of it. Throughout the line connecting Enprise to Tisse, there are these QR codes all along the floor. They're those things you can scan with your phone to see a picture or other information. Scanning them didn't get any data, though. The other area I went through, I don't even know how to explain what I saw. Try going to the middle of town. Next time, I ought to bring a camera with me. I know that as soon as I post this up, Retrospec will probably try to lock it all down even tighter than they already have. But seeing as how I was assuming that's how they were getting things through the city without us noticing? If we can make them stop using it, I'll call that a victory.

Hunh. I guess I had thought about that, but I'd never looked into how the history books get written.

So. Okay. What if I want to know what used to be standing on a certain spot in town? Or if there used to be a building in a specific location?

[Because what's the only location in town that everyone is suddenly interested in?]

You would have to look at old city plans. Those could be found in the university archives, which the museum has a joint partnership with. Normally, we aren't interested in maps as items to study, so they're more useful in a research institution.

[standalonehuman]

Would you have quicker access to that sort of data than other people? I mean, would it be easier for you to look it up, or would it be too much trouble?

[prometheanflame]

That's correct. I can get access to the library stacks as a professional researcher.

[standalonehuman]

Would you be willing to look into it, then?

[Togusa attaches the address of the Retrospec building, notably, the return address that has shown up on every package that has been sent to users.]

I'll see what I can do.
