A Strange Request
You are entrusted with the peculiar case of Victor Dousvalon. This old history professor is known for shrouding his past life in secrecy, even from his own daughter Catherine. But an apparently harmless accident motivates him to hire you to help Catherine trace back the steps of his life.
Why can't he simply tell her his own story?
Why does Catherine, who has been so distant with her father these past years, suddenly want to know about him?
Your first case will decidedly be a delicate one...
