>"There's this shopkeeper near the forest of magic, right? Kosuzu mentioned that he had a shotgun. Could he be related to this?"
>"I already talked to him. It was definitely not him. He's not the type to start a fight, let alone shoot someone out of the blue. On top of that, I also described the injuries to him, and he said that they don't sound like a injury that his 'shotgun' thing he has can inflict... He did tell me that these kind of weapons usually leave behind some kind of casing when they're fired. So I went back to the alleyway and found this." she reaches into her sleeve and takes out a bullet casing, "I showed it to him, and he said that it's the casing of a '9 millimeter round' or something... He told me that the weapon I'm looking for is likely something that's small and can fit in one hand."

>You pass the scorched fork in the road as she says this.

>"Nope. Usually the Kourindou is the only place that would carry an oddity like that, but the shopkeeper already said he wasn't involved, nor did he sell any outside world weapons to anyone recently."

>"You don't know what those things are? Have you ever been to the outside world Reimu?"
>"I've only been there once, and even then it was only briefly." Reimu began, "You see, about nine years ago, a person from the outside world came to Gensokyo. She was using these artifacts called Occult Balls to cause an incident. Mamizou actually came up with a plan to trap her in Gensokyo so we could teach her a lesson, but I think it worked a little too well... You see, a few hours after she was brought inside, she used the Occult Balls to temporarily escape to the outside world. However, I had to follow her, not because she was evading her punishment, but because one of the Occult Balls she had was not like the others, and I was concerned about what would happen if she activated it... Anyway, when I finally found her, she was terrified, and apparently thought she was going to die. So what she did was activate the Occult Balls and attempted to commit suicide, hoping to destroy the barrier along with her, an act that would threaten Gensokyo's entire existence. She almost succeeded, but thankfully I was able to knock her out and take her into custody before the ritual was complete... Unfortunately, the energy was enough to activate the strange Occult Ball, which ended up causing another incident... But that's another story."

>You have just crossed the edge of the Bamboo Forest.

>You are on the road, approaching the woods at the bottom of the hill the Hakurei Shrine is located on. Nothing of interest seems to be happening nearby. Renko still seems a little off.

> "...Also where is this girl today?"
>"I'm not sure. She disappeared two years after that... I don't really know the details, but supposedly Mamizou was with her."

>What would it take for one of us to get a handgun in the outside world ? Would it be easy ?
>It would be very hard for one of you to get a handgun in the outside world, unless you moved out of Japan. Japan's gun control laws are among the strictest in the world, and owning most types, including a handgun, is illegal. Gun-related homicides in Japan tend to become national news stories because they are so rare.

>Nothing has changed other than a small group of fairies flying through the air, they seem to be flying away from some grey clouds on the horizon.

>"Did you battle her, Reimu ? You too seem to have a sort of relationship, even if a bit odd."
>"We have fought a few times in the past..." says Reimu, "In fact, the first time I met her was after the Delayed Spring Incident, I fought her because she was at least partially responsible for the incident, being friends with the main culprit and all... After that, well... I guess 'odd' would be a good word to describe our relationship... She's been intruding on my life periodically ever since... Sometimes I wonder if she was like that with my ancestors too..."

>"Renko, do you feel comfortable sharing what Koishi told you now?"
>"Merry, I'm fine... Please... Don't worry about it..." Renko replies.

>Renko looks at her feet, "Look... I have no idea why people think I look familiar... and I'm sorry that I'm making you feel like that... "

>"If it makes you feel any better, I never thought she looked familiar when I met you two..." Reimu remarks, before looking at the approaching grey clouds in the sky, "Great... The last thing I need today is rain..." she mutters.

>Examine Renko.
>Renko looks the same as always, though she still seems a little off. Her own satchel is slung over her, away from you. You notice her slip her hand inside, as if to check for something, before withdrawing it.

//Don't worry, Renko likely isn't the gunner. For one, she helped Mamizou with us after the shooting and two; she would probably be trying to avoid Reimu here.
And it can't be Yumemi from the last quest either. Her aim is terrible.
