Chapter 4: World's Greatest Detective

Wayne Manor

The minute you arrive home, you are greeted by a ton of GCPD members sprawling around your mansion. Immediately, Gordon walks up to you to show you the warrant. As much as you’d like to protest, we decide to tell Gordon that we understand that he is just doing his job. During your conversation, you learn that Mayor Hill authorized the whole search. In response, we say that we are friends with the DA but it doesn’t do anything to stop the so-called investigation.

After Gordon and the GCPD leave (even after a police offer accidentally smashes one of your family portraits),you find the reporter Vicki Vale in your home as well. She offers to help you by allowing you to air your side of the story. You agree that all this must be politically motivated since Mayor Hill knows that you are Dent’s largest endorser. At this point, we agree to give Vicki a quote she can use for her report. During the whole interview, we state that we want justice.

Café Triste

After the interview with Vicki, you now proceed to Café Triste to speak to Harvey about the surprise investigation that took place in your home. During the whole exchange, Harvey declares that he did not know a thing about Mayor Hill’s plan and that he did not have anything to do with it. We chose not to put the whole blame on Harvey and just focus on working together. In return, Harvey willfully agrees to get to the bottom of everything for your sake.

Surprisingly, Harvey’s date–Selina Kyle–shows up. As soon as you see her, she carefully looks at the small claw marks she made on your face during your battle at City Hall the night before. Here, Harvey says that Selina is just visiting and he goes on talking about how Selina was mugged the other day, which is Selina’s excuse for the blackeye. Luckily, Harvey gets up to take a call and you are left alone with Selina. We tried to play it cool by choosing to apologize about her eye and saying that you had your own reasons for doing what you are doing.

Selina cuts the small talk by quickly raising the issue about the hard drive you took from her at the rooftop. We refused to give it to her and tried to tell her that you are willing to help her and that Selina will just have to trust her. Seeing that everything may already seemed screwed for her, Selina hands over a paper with an address, to which she is scheduled to meet her client and give the harddrive. The meeting place will be at the Eastside Docks.

Eastside Docks

By the time you arrive at the Eastside Docks, you find that you somehow came late to the “party”. As soon as you open the gate, you see the gruesome picture of body parts and insideds lying around the floor and a few more corpses as well. You also notice a blast marks on the floor. At this point, you realize that you can create links between different pieces of evidences in order to fully understand what happened.

So you first check on the blast marks on the floor and the human remains sitting next to it. You conclude that those are simply an effect of a blast. As you move towards the end of the room you notice a piece of metal, with a bullet hole in it. You go back up and move past the blast marks and find a guard with a white rose sitting on his chest. You realize that this is Falcone’s symbol. Then you move on to another body resting somewhere in the room. This body, however, is not a guard but one of the mercenaries that raided City Hall. Right beside that is another cop with bloody hands and a bullet hole on the side of his head.

Here are a few things you link together:

a. The Ripped-off Face of the merc and the police officer’s bloody hands.

b. The Incendiary bullet and the canister fragment

After that, you already have the rest of the puzzle solved. All you have to do next is to link the blast mark to the unscorched area. Doing this reveals that a truck used to be in the unscorched area.

Because of the incendiary bullet you also realize that a sniper might be responsible for all this. Therefore you search for the best possible location for the sniper that will also reveal a ton of phosphorus residue. Among the three sniper areas, you must pick the one at the leftmost area. You discover that this spot is specifically the spot which had phosphorous residue. By tracing that, you find the sniper hiding at the bottom.

As soon as you come face to face with the shooter, you must dodge his shot. Afterward, you can interrogate him to ask who is behind all this. During the interrogation, you may choose to hurt him or simply intimidate him. We chose to intimidate him to ask questions. We did not break his arm. After the short interrogation, Gordon shows up. We choose to stay and talk to Gordon about your findings.

After that, you head on to Skyline Club.
