Gotham Memoirs Stage 4-9
Complete Walkthrough
Hello everyone, welcome to our Walkthrough for Gotham Memoirs Chapter 4 Stage 9 Dress up Time Princess. In the previous stage, you had a dilemma. Whether to hand over evidence to your companion in the fight against crime. Giving evidence is not something that can be done easily because you have a few things on your conscience. If you submit evidence, you will show that you did not comply with the request of your friend Miss Charlotte Harris. Failure to surrender commits you to new challenges. By doing so, you will respect your friend. In addition to everything that has happened, Miss Charlotte Harris is a person who is always with you. This stage is unlocked If you previously obtained the evidence from Councilman Harris safe in Stage 3-12 and did not hand over the evidence to Diane in Stage 4-8. Start once you are ready to begin stage 9.
I feel uneasy after returning from the Prosecutor’s office. You cannot shake the premonition that something bad is going to happen. Prosecutor Diane Boseman’s stern face, and her loaded words… Shivers run down your spine when you recall them. You decide to do something to take your mind off it, and assuage the anxiety and worry you feel.
You force yourself to concentrate, throwing yourself into the task. Hopefully, you can decipher something obscure. A list of unfamiliar codes, and a normal phone book. You can’t decode the list, and there is no clue in the phone book. Sighing, you pack them away again.
Only Officer Walter Taylor’s file is left on the table.
The cover page has Officer Walter Taylor’s name, police identification number, and precinct he was posted to. You flip open the file, skimming through the records in front. You pause at the last few pages, which record the missing person case of a girl named Amy.
Officer Walter Taylor and Bob Wilson were in charge of investigating this missing person case. They did not make any headway for some time. Bob Wilson volunteered to withdraw from the investigation. Officer Walter Taylor continued investigating alone and uncovered dozen more missing children. He reported this to his superiors. You look at the list of victims. Your heart aches as you read their names out loud.
According to the records, they went missing on their way home from school, and they all attended the same school. Your heart starts to race. You feel you have stumbled upon something really important, and you continue reading. Quickly, you check out the column naming the school.
As far as you can remember, it’s a welfare school that relies on donations. It accepts children from poor families. There is a report written by Officer Walter Taylor at the back of the file. His report describes his suspicion that the cases are all linked and that the victims are all children from poor households. No further leads or deductions are mentioned in the report. The report is the last part of the file. The file can’t give you any more info.
You recall Jessica’s death, and Mr. Rio Rossi stealing things she left behind… They all seem linked now. You might have a vague idea of what happened, but you lack evidence to back you up. After a brief, flustered moment, your thoughts gradually become clearer. You start contemplating your next step. Bob Wilson used to be Walter Taylor’s partner. Perhaps you should talk to him again.
The next day, you pay a visit to Bob Wilson, taking the file with you. But Bob Wilson’s attitude towards you remains unchanged. He does not even want to hear you out. No matter how much you pleaded, he is unmoved. He cowls and chases you away. You have spent half the day there to no avail. You leave in a huff, empty-handed. At this point, you are completely unaware that something worse has happened…
Upon reaching home, you realize that a police car is parked at the door, and some officers are investigating your room. Mrs. Johnson was out for her evening walk when she heard a commotion. When she hurried over, she discovered the lock has been picked. It was a complete mess inside. She is certain it was a thief. It is dangerous everywhere these days. She had to call countless times before she managed to get the police to come.
You remember the evidence hidden in your room and dash inside to look. You find nothing. They were gunning for the evidence you found at Councilman Steven Harris’ home. Now that you have a lot the evidence, you are in far more trouble than ever. You can only pretend that nothing is wrong, and report for work each day as normal. But after a few days, you are summoned to Mr. George Kane’s office the minute you step into the office.
Mr. George Kane has something important to tell you. You have been working in Gotham Times for a while. But now he is starting to doubt if hiring you was wise. The trouble you caused at the Harris Mansion has severely compromised the image and reputation of Gotham Times. It is a pity. You have worked hard, but as Chief Editor here, he has to consider the larger interests of the newspaper.
Today will be your last day at Gotham Times. This month’s salary will be credited to you in advance. Mr. George Kane shows you out of his room. You have no choice but to complete the handover process, and leave the office in despair. You have lost your only source of income. Now you will have to search for a new job to survive.
They hired the typist a few days ago. Before you can finish, you are chased out of the premises by the irate employee. In another place, they want to hire an attendant. The Hotel Employee says that you look rather weedy. The job does not suit you. He doubts you can do much hard work. You should go.
You even apply for a waitressing job. But the hiring manager shakes his head repeatedly after hearing you out. The restaurant Worker says that this is not the place for a lady who graduated from Imperial University. You should go back to being a reporter. You have applied to nearly all the newspapers in New York City, but not a single one was willing to hire you. Before you can explain this, they have chased you out of the restaurant.
After failing to find a job, you are quickly running out of money You may not be able to pay the rent next month. If you still can’t find a job, you will not even be able to buy bread to eat. You comfort yourself and resolve to search harder tomorrow. Who knows, you might find a job that can sustain you. Going to the window, you sigh, preparing to draw the curtains, when you suddenly spy a black car parked downstairs.
But you are too tired to think about the suspicious-looking car. You draw the curtains and fall into a deep slumber at once. In your dreams, you vaguely hear something. When you wrench your eyes open, nothing seems out of order. You fall back to sleep again. Later that night, you are awoken by a pungent odor. You sit up in bed, startled. There are some people screaming downstairs. The building is in chaos, and you hear someone shouting ‘’Fire!’’
You leap out of bed and dash to the window. Only then do you see the flames outside. Thick smoke has already flooded your room. You need to escape right now. The black smoke stings your eyes, and you can barely keep them open. Coughing, you cover your nose and mouth and grope for the door handle. The handle is scorching hot. Gritting your teeth, you move it repeatedly to no avail. The door does not budge, even when you slam against it.
You have no time to think. You rush to the window. But the window is jammed shut, and you are choking on the smoke. There is barely any air left to breathe…
Your screams for help grow weak and are soon overwhelmed by the sounds of the disintegrating room. You lean against the window and knock helplessly on the pane. Vaguely, you see a figure beside the black car. He looks somewhat familiar and even seems to wave in your direction. Your worlds fall into darkness. The following day, an unremarkable newspaper publishes, in an unremarkable section of their paper, news that a young lady has perished in a fire. The report details to great extent the lady’s tragic death, but makes no mention of her name and her life…
If you previously did not obtain the evidence from Councilman Harris safe in Stage 3-12 and did not hand over the evidence to Diane in Stage 4-8, the story ends here.
I feel uneasy after returning from the Prosecutor’s office. You cannot shake the premonition that something bad is going to happen. Prosecutor Diane Boseman’s stern face, and her loaded words… Shivers run down your spine when you recall them. You decide to do something to take your mind off it, and assuage the anxiety and worry you feel.
You carefully consider your option, but utter helplessness engulfs you. Prosecutor Diane Boseman has not contacted you at all. You think you have lost her support completely. Without any evidence, it is a struggle to go on. You can only pretend that nothing is wrong, and report for work each day as normal. But after a few days, you are summoned to Mr. George Kane’s office the minute you step into the office.

After failing to find a job, you are quickly running out of money You may not be able to pay the rent next month. You decide to call your father to tell him that you are returning to the farm. Once, you had a dream. You arrived in this city full of enthusiasm. You wanted to become a great reporter. But now, you are forced to leave. Before leaving, you take one last look at New York City, with all its glorious lights. You may never return. Perhaps you were never meant to fulfill your dream. No matter how hard you work, you can never be a part of this city. You smile grimly, dabbing at your tears. Then you haul your luggage on board the bus back to your hometown. Farewell, New York City.
This stage is officially over. Our decisions have had consequences. The elections we have chosen have now officially come to us. We are not happy because this happened, it had to be much better, but this is something that could have been expected. The only way is to accept the consequences. You have two different options. A more painless option is to go back to the farm. It is a more painless option to accept that we are unsuccessful in some segments of life. All this is proof that we are human and that sometimes it is better to be unsuccessful and withdraw. Because life has a lot to offer. Miss Elizabeth Colvin experienced two different places.
