Including you and me? Eight. [He maybe takes this job a little too seriously.]
...I'm still not sure it's safe to disclose names to everyone, but my goal is to find the rest and see about getting everyone together to figure out what's happening here. [Hm.]
Did you get a chance to speak to any of the three who unleashed those shitty toys on the ship? They came back with some pretty interesting information.
Besides the fact that they broke into what sounds like an arcade, they ended up hearing an audio transcript. I heard half of the details from Higekiri and Wei Wuxian, but Dick got a copy of the notes Kagachi took.
From what we understand, whoever our narrator is confronted someone about having some sort of part in this game. "You're one of the 13." Don't know what that means yet. But the most important part is the other thing that was said. "Now we know the demons and" this part was scrambled, but I assume it was "the roles." "They're both like the hydra. Cut one head off, and another will take its place."
Still trying to figure out just what that means in context of the game in front of us.
Isn't that the question. [He sure does look frustrated about that.] She's still alive, so I doubt it's been passed yet. I was going to go and ask one of the hosts and see what they can tell me later...and I'll try to ask Escha some more questions before tomorrow.
["Try" because, like, she's still a friend. He's not going to interrogate her too hard if she seems dead inside.]
I still hit her with her own staff, Haymitch. I know when to go easy and when to press. [...but there's a sigh.] But I know. I got it. If I know Escha she'll be as helpful as possible before tomorrow anyway, so...I'll see what I can do.

What'd they have to say?

Well, there's your next case, detective. Did somebody get Escha's role?
