If you two are ever in need of a detective...
-He reaches into his vest and pulls out a couple cards, tossing it at them-
Just reach me at the Narumi Detective Agency. On the house.
-did i mention he's been trying to smooth talk because he's got a smooth talk voice on-
...Well. I'd say that, but how do I get back? I'm in the middle of a case and it'd suck if I can't finish it.
mario is red, i am green, i try my best, but everyone's mean-a-follow-
Philip. I'm in some place weird. Try looking it up for me will y— No, not that weird. I'm in some dim— Philip! I'm not in Futo! No the cat didn't leave the city, I left the city!
-Pinches the bridge of his nose and sighs-
...Alright. The keywords are "extraterrestrial," "dimensions", and "crossroads." How's that?
-theeeee fuuuuuuck is he going on about luis-
-if there's anyone listening in the room-
-they might be able to hear a new voice talking downstairs-
mario is red, i am green, i try my best, but everyone's meanNo, he's another detective. We're like a pair.
Seems that didn't work, Shotaro. Maybe the Gaia Library doesn't have anything on it? That in itself is rather interesting, in fact...
How can it not have anything on it? I have another normal person with me and he's probably from Earth.
-Luis- You are from Earth, right?
mario is red, i am green, i try my best, but everyone's meanAlright, we've got at least one guy from Earth. How's that not getting anything out?
If I had to make a guess, I would say that the person you're talking to is of a different Earth dimension. Perhaps if the Gaia Library existed on his Earth, it might have something regarding your dimension. Or it could be that the very nature of this dimension is mysterious even to the Earth itself.
Speaking of which, Shotaro, how are you able to call this number if we're a dimension apart?
...Hey, do phones normally work in this dimension? Like, calling out to our homeworlds or whatever? mario is red, i am green, i try my best, but everyone's mean

...I guess I should've known these woods weren't just some new addition.
...Alright! We got off on the wrong foot then.
-Turns and takes a few steps away, then rests his foot up on a tree-
Sorry. For the misunderstanding.
-Turns back to them, holding the brim of his hat between his fingertips-
I'm a detective. Shotaro Hidari.
