Search for an Important Person

Walkthrough for the Search for an Important Person request on Chapter 4 Day 2 of The Legend of Heroes: Trails From Zero. Details on the correct choices to convince Carla to return to Crossbell.

Search for an Important Person is a request on Chapter 4 Day 2.

How to Start Search for an Important Person

Search for an Important Person is a request that you can begin by examining the computer in the SSS HQ after you have given your report to Chief Sergei on Chapter 4 Day 2. Unlike the Blue Pill Investigation Request, this one is entirely optional so it’s a good idea to focus on clearing it (and the other Requests) as soon as possible to avoid being locked out of it.

Fortunately, unlike the other requests today, you don’t actually need to leave Crossbell to complete it as it takes place in the entirety of Crossbell (outside of a short train journey). To start the request, head to the Residential District and check the gate of the second house (when entering via the Entertainment District) and examine it to gain entry. Head forward into the next room to find Representative Campbell and begin the request.

Go to the Residential District and examine this gate to enter Representative Campbell’s house.

How to Complete Search for an Important Person

After speaking with Representative Campbell, you’ll learn that the important person is Carla, his daughter, who has run away with their maid. Once you regain control, a bit of detective work is on the menu where you’ll need to answer the questions correctly for 2 DP.

Leave this room and enter the room on your right to find Carla’s room and examine the desk to be given the first question. Answer with “Suddenly ran away from home (1st)”, then return to the previous room and speak with Representative Campbell and the Republican Representative. Return to Carla’s room and examine the desk and you’ll get two more questions. Answer This morning (2nd) followed by “The IBC (3rd).

(1 of 2) Examine the desk in Carla’s room for the first choice

Examine the desk in Carla’s room for the first choice (left), then return after speaking with Campbell for a further two choices. (right)

Fueled with this knowledge, head for the IBC and after you gain control, go to the reception, and speak with Receptionist Lanfei, who will inform you that she met with Mariabell not too long ago. Use the elevator and head for 16F to meet with her, she’ll explain that she plans to head for Liberl.

Head out of Crossbell’s southern exit, head east into the Airport and speak with Receptionist Marcana to learn that Carla never boarded a flight to Liberl. Fortunately, Carla’s maid will appear at this point to disclose the whole story. Leave the Airport and quickly head to the station on Crossbell’s Station Street. Go through the gate at Platform 1 and you’ll trigger a scene that sees the group board the train.

(1 of 3) Head for the IBC and take the elevator up to speak with Mariabell

Head east through two carriages and you’ll come across Carla sitting on her own. Go over and speak with her and you’ll eventually have to answer three questions which are worth a whopping 7 DP:

Question Answer
1 We’re on a trip to the republic (2nd)
2 Your father is to blame (1st)
3 Your maid is worried sick (3rd)

More scenes will follow, and the Request will finally come to an end, with you back at Crossbell Station.
