Hey. What do you want?

Can't hear you.

Come a little closer,

and talk right in my ear.

Valdes sent you?!

I'm surprised he finally

decided to talk to someone!

Alright, if you're his friend,

then I'll do what I can to

help. What do you need?

The Z Gang again?

I guess he's still mad

about capturing them.

It's not a big deal for me

to tell you what I know, but

can I really trust you?

Let me test you out.

Go to Payon, find an old

guy named Moonho Ahn. He's

a legendary gambler better

known as the White Meteor.

If he trusts you, I trust you.

Heh, but he'll only trust

you if you can beat him at

gambling. Whether you return

or not, I'm gonna continue

investigating the Z Gang for

the Rogue Guild and Valdes.

Weird. It's not like him

to send his regards like that.

He's not sick or anything,

is he? If he's still drinking

the next time I see him,

I'm gonna clobber that guy!

Geez. Doesn't he know

I volunteered for this

job for his sake? Oh well,

it's really nice to know

that he's thinking of me.

What? Rogues can have friends!

Can't tell what

you're saying exactly.

If this is some kind

of weird come-on, you'd

better have something

better to say than that!

What, are you coming

on to me? I'm down with

any gender, but, heh,

you sure about this?

Hahahahahahahahaha!

What, you're back?

Aww, nuts! That signature

on your arm... You really

beat him? How the hell--?

Wait, lemme check

and make sure. Yeap.

That's the one. That's

the signature he used when

he was the White Meteor.

How did you beat him?

Last time, he cleaned me

out of all my money! You

must be some kinda genius

to beat that guy. Heh. Guess

I underestimated you.

Hold on, before anything

else, I gotta tell everyone

that someone actually beat

the White Meteor. They're

totally not gonna believe it!

Well, I promised to tell

you what I know about the

Z Gang, so I gotta make good.

What did you want to ask me?

Actually, I don't know

what they plan to do, but

obviously it isn't something

very good. Personally, I think

they just want to harass

people as much as they can.

You could conquer the

world, I guess, with that

Book of Forbidden Mystery,

but I don't think they're

that... Calculating.

Well, the Z Gang is

responsible for a series

of thefts lately. They've

only been stealing jewels

like diamonds, rubies,

emeralds. Not sure why...

Well, we don't know where

they're hiding out. If that

was the case, the Z Gang

would already be caught!

They even got away from

us Rogues. Crazy, huh?

The Rogue Guild has got

the best intel network so...

The Z Gang probably has

informers everywhere in

all the towns. It's the only

way they can escape us.

Hey, we can use that...

If we can catch one of

their informers, one of

them'll spill the beans

on where the Z Gang is

hiding. Worth a shot, yeah?

Oh, and one more thing...

I hear that they're trying

to secretly recruit more

gang members in Morocc.

The nerve of those guys...!

It might be a good idea

for you to go to Morocc

and check it out. Good

luck finding those Z Gang

guys. And take care!

Hey, I'm willing to

let you in on everything

I know. After all the trouble

you went through, I'm sure

you've got a ton of questions!

I haven't heard anything

else, but would you let me

know if you get any new leads?

The Rogue Guild wants these

Z Gang guys really bad!

Hey, I've been looking for

you! One of the Rogues

dispatched to Comodo found

this envelope on a Z Gang

informer. Could be a clue!

What's weird is that the

informer was fighting so

hard to hold on to blank

piece of paper... But we

know that's not really

the case here, is it?

They must've been using

some kinda secret invisible

ink. Anyway, I gave the paper

to a professional decoder to

crack, and he oughta be

done by now. Anyway...

I thought maybe you'd

want to go talk to him,

see if he's finished with it.

His name's Gooho Ahn over

in Payon, one of the best

decoders in this kingdom.

[

Gooho Ahn?

Why does it feel like

I should know that

name? It's so familiar...

I guess it's 'cause

Gooho is the younger brother

of Moonho, that legendary

gambler you happened to beat.

Eh, that's not what's

important right now.

Would you talk to Gooho

Ahn and see what he found?

Hey, why don't you talk

to Gooho Ahn in Payon,

and ask if he finished

decoding that secret letter

from the Z Gang already?

Oh, Gooho decoded everything?

Let's see... Something about

the Book of Forbidden Mystery... Ah. There we go! The location

of the Z Gang's hideout!

Heh heh! We got 'em!

One of the Rogues followed

the informer carrying this

letter, but he just vanished

during the chase... Like, by

magic, I guess. So we don't

the hideout's exact place.

Even so, we're definitely

sure that it's around the

secret path to the South

Morocc underground. Um,

but we can't let you come

with the Rogue Guild.

Sorry, I know, it's official

business and all that hooplah.

Tell you what. We'll each go

hunt them down separately, and

whoever finds 'em first gets

dibs on beating them up!

We're definitely sure

that the Z Gang's hideout

is near the secret path

to the South Morocc

underground. You

know where that is?

Nice work! You captured

the Z Gang! The kingdom

musta given you a really

big reward, huh?

Valdes really wanted to

capture them himself, but

I'm sure he'll be real happy

to hear the news. Maybe he

and I can celebrate with

a little drink later.

Hey, it's been a real

thrill working with you,

real thrill. Maybe we can

team up again for a good

cause some other time, yeah?

That Z Gang has been

a pain the Rogue Guild's

ass. No one runs away

from us! Nobody! But...

They can do it somehow.

There's not much here

that might interest you,

but knock yourself out

if you wanna look around.
