''Mr. Green mentioned that Winnie Cooper should know about Anne Croft. Talk to her at the Celebration Plaza.''

{{SL|You|Huh, where is Winnie Cooper? Did she leave?}}
{{SL|Luke|Look. There are a bunch of kids playing over there. They're all dressed the same, so they must be from the same class.}}
{{SL|Luke|Since the kids are there, the teacher organizing the activity must also be around somewhere.}}

''Talk with the event people at the Celebration Plaza and ask them about Winnie Cooper.''

{{SC
|choice1=Pair by fountain (N)
|script1=
{{SL|Male Teacher|I heard Ms. Cooper comes from a rich family. They own a restaurant.}}
{{SL|Assistant Teacher|You mean that restaurant everyone's always talking about? Penny's Comfort Foods, right? I've been there. It is pretty good.}}
{{SL|Male Teacher|So, why didn't she stay with the family business? Why would she want to become a teacher outside of the state?}}
{{SL|Assistant Teacher|Maybe she has some conflict with the family. Ms. Cooper is quite young. She is probably still in her rebellious stage.}}
{{SL|You|What? It's nothing like that at all...}}
{{SL|Luke|I guess Winnie didn't tell her colleagues what was going on, so there has been some kind of misunderstanding.}}
{{SL|You|Hmm... I should tell her about this. Sometimes a clear explanation is necessary...}}
|choice2=NE group
|script2=
{{SL|Young Man|Kid, you just crashed into me. Do you know what you've done? Where are your parents? They are going to owe me a lot of money.}}
{{SL|Boy|Huh...? I didn't hurt you. I was just looking at the flags...}}
{{SL|Young Man|That was exactly when you crashed into me! Ouch... My waist is killing me!}}
{{SL|You|Drop the act. I can prove he did not come anywhere near you this whole time.}}
{{SL|Young Man|Who are you? Mind your own business!}}
[Debate]

{{SC
|choice1=Win

{{SL|Young Man|Forget it! I'm obviously not going to get justice. I'm out of here!}}
{{SL|You|Kid, are you okay?}}
{{SL|Boy|I'm okay. Thank you. You are so nice. Just like Ms. Cooper.}}
{{SL|You|You are Ms. Cooper's student? Do you know where she is? I have something to ask her.}}
{{SL|Boy|Ms. Cooper is getting a pudding for another kid. Wait here and you will see her when she comes back.}}
|choice2=Lose

{{SL|Young Man|I told you not to mess with me. You just couldn't stop yourself!}}

|choice3=East pair
|script3=
{{SL|Female Teacher|Have you heard about the theft of the Sky Gladiolus?}}
{{SL|Young Man|Of course. We had a plan to take the children to see the flowers on the day of the ceremony.}}
{{SL|Female Teacher|I don't know if we'll be able to see them now... It's such a shame.}}
{{SL|Young Man|Hmm, why isn't Ms. Cooper back yet? It's been a while.}}
{{SL|Female Teacher|She won't be back any time soon. After all, the kid she has with her is a bit...}}
{{SL|You|Excuse me, is the teacher you mentioned named Winnie Cooper?}}
{{SL|Female Teacher|Yes. One of the students in her class was asking for strawberry pudding, so she took her to get some.}}
{{SL|Young Man|Are you looking for her? They should be back soon.}}
{{SL|You|Okay, thanks.}}
|choice4=Volunteer (S)

{{SL|City Celebration Volunteer|Hmm... what to do... there are so many kids clamoring to see the Sky Gladiolus. What should I tell them...?}}
{{SL|City Celebration Volunteer|Hey! Miss [Player], you're back. How was it? Any news?}}
{{SL|You|Nothing yet, but don't worry. We will figure it out as soon as possible.}}
{{SL|City Celebration Volunteer|Okay... Hopefully, the Sky Gladiolus will be found soon. *Sigh*}}

''Winnie Cooper should be back soon. Wait for a while at the Celebration Plaza.''

After wandering around the square for about ten minutes, you finally see a familiar figure walking towards you and Luke.
{{SL|Winnie Cooper|Miss [Player] and Detective Pearce? What brings you here?}}
{{SL|Luke|There is something we need to confirm with you...}}
{{SL|You|Huh? Joey? What are you doing here?}}
{{SL|Joey Grant|...}}
You don't notice the little girl behind her until Winnie Cooper gets closer.
Holding a toy dinosaur in her arms, Joey looks at you with a smile. It's clearly her favorite toy that she has with her.
{{SL|Winnie Cooper|Ah, she's a student of mine. Miss [Player], you know her?}}
{{SL|You|Mm-hmm, what a coincidence. By the way, I have a few questions to ask you. Is this a good time?}}
{{SL|Winnie Cooper|Sure. Go ahead.}}
{{SC
|choice1=Anne Croft
|script1=
{{SL|You|What is your impression of Anne Croft? I heard from Mr. Green that you spoke to her several times and you're quite close to her.}}
{{SL|Winnie Cooper|Hmm... Miss Croft used to be a regular customer of Penny's Comfort Foods. She would always come with her boyfriend to eat.}}
{{SL|Winnie Cooper|She was knowledgeable and gentle. Whenever we talked, I felt that I could learn a lot of things from her.}}
{{SL|Winnie Cooper|But afterward, when her boyfriend wasn't around anymore, it was as if she became a different person...}}
{{SC
|choice1=Identity of boyfriend
|script1=
{{SL|Luke|You said that her boyfriend wasn't around anymore... What do you mean by that?}}
{{SL|Winnie Cooper|It was about three years ago... One day, she suddenly came by herself. Back then, I wondered why her boyfriend didn't come along.}}
{{SL|Winnie Cooper|She said that her boyfriend would never be by her side ever again.}}
{{SL|Winnie Cooper|I guess they probably broke up. That scumbag must have dumped Miss Croft. }}
|choice2=Special habits
|script2=
{{SL|You|From what Mr. Green said, it seems like Anne Croft always ate at the same table. Apart from this, did she have other particular quirks?}}
{{SL|Winnie Cooper|She definitely does. She always orders Seafood Tofu Soup every time. She has never ordered anything else but that for three years straight.}}
{{SL|Luke|Every time? She never ordered anything else?}}
{{SL|Winnie Cooper|Yeah, that's right. I suspect... that she was quite hurt after she broke up with her boyfriend.}}
{{SL|You|For three years straight, she sat by herself at the same table and ate the same food. No matter how you look at it, that's not normal at all...}}
|choice3=Abnormal behavior
|script3=
{{SL|Luke|When Anne Croft came to your restaurant to eat alone, did she say or do anything unusual?}}
{{SL|Winnie Cooper|Every time she came, she would sit at that table and eat with a blank expression on her face... I don't think there's anything else.}}
{{SL|Winnie Cooper|*Sigh* After her boyfriend left her, she became introverted and was nothing like how she was before.}}
{{SL|You|(It seems like something must have happened three years ago... Perhaps this current case has something to do with her boyfriend?)}}
}}
|choice2=Vernon Green's request
|script2=
{{SL|You|Before we came here, we went to Penny's Comfort Foods. Mr. Green wanted us to tell you...}}
{{SL|Winnie Cooper|He told you guys to convince me to quit teaching, and to go back and take over Penny's Comfort Foods, right?}}
{{SL|Winnie Cooper|Actually, he has already told me the same countless times now, but... Being a teacher is my dream. I really don't want to quit.}}
{{SL|Winnie Cooper|To tell you the truth... In addition to this teaching internship I'm doing right now, I've also signed up for my university's summer teaching activities.}}
{{SL|Winnie Cooper|After graduating from university, I plan to return to my hometown and try my hardest to become a good teacher.}}
{{SL|You|Of course, I respect your plan, but Mr. Green...}}
{{SL|Winnie Cooper|Don't worry. He's been good to me. He... is just worried about the difficulties I'll face teaching in a rural village.}}
{{SL|Winnie Cooper|As long as I persevere, he'll definitely understand my choice.}}
{{SL|You|Okay, I understand. We'll go back to Penny's Comfort Foods shortly, and relay your thoughts to Mr. Green.}}
{{SL|Winnie Cooper|It's fine. You guys should focus on your own things. When this extracurricular class ends, I'll go and talk to him myself.}}
{{SL|You|That works too. Good luck, Winnie! I'm sure you'll get through to him.}}
|choice3=Joey Grant
|script3=
{{SL|You|How are you getting along with Joey? Is everything all right? She had some issues in her family, so...}}
{{SL|Winnie Cooper|Yeah, Joey's experiences... Well, I've heard some of it from her guardian, Mr. Grant...}}
{{SL|Winnie Cooper|However, those are all in the past. Joey's mental state is gradually getting better now.}}
{{SL|Winnie Cooper|Even though she doesn't talk much, and doesn't like to play with other kids, she's still an adorable kid.}}
{{SL|Winnie Cooper|As her teacher, I'll do my best to look after her. I won't let Mr. Grant down.}}
{{SL|Winnie Cooper|Also, I feel that it isn't hard to communicate with Joey either.}}
{{SL|Winnie Cooper|If there's a strawberry pudding, you'll be an angel for me, right? }}
{{SL|Joey Grant|Yeah!}}
{{SL|You|(Joey's smiling! Looks like she really likes Winnie. I guess this might be fated.)}}
}}
{{SL|You|Thank you. That's just about everything we wanted to confirm.}}
{{SL|Winnie Cooper|You're welcome. Um... Are you investigating Miss Croft because of the Sky Gladiolus theft?}}
{{SL|Winnie Cooper|There are a lot of people on the Internet saying that Miss Croft ran away because she was the thief that stole the Sky Gladiolus...}}
{{SL|Luke|Don't take those posts seriously. It's still under investigation. Trust me, the truth will be revealed soon.}}
{{SL|Winnie Cooper|I have faith in both of you. It's nice seeing you guys. I've got to go.}}
{{SL|Luke|[Player], we've gotten most of the things we need now. How about we go back to the station to sort out the information we've collected?}}
{{SL|You|Okay. I wonder if Captain Morgan has found any new clues... Let's go and check it out.}}
