Pixie on the Case Quest Guide SMT V
Pixie on the Case is a side quest players can find near the Fairy Village in Da’at Shinagawa. This quest features a Pixie who asks the Nahobino to solve a mystery about who stole an apple. It doubles as a playable demon side quest where you take over as Pixie and interrogate the various suspects.
The gist of the mystery comes down to talking to each party and questioning them. However, there are some catches. For one, the first group you talk to is the Jack-o-Lantern and Jack Frost. All you know is one of them is lying while the other is telling the truth. On the other hand, the Pixies are likely to tell the truth. However, the group of Agathion are all lying. Finally, the unicorn is telling the truth and is the only confirmed innocent party.
Who Stole the Apple in SMT V Vengeance?
After you talk to all of the parties, you can start to assemble the truth behind who stole the apple in Pixie on the Case in SMT V Vengeance. The gist of it is Unicorn establishes someone visited the apple three separate times. The first time was the Pixies, the second time was the Agathion group who ends up being innocent, and the third group is the culprit.
In the end, the only potential culprits are Jack Frost and Jack-o-lantern. Because you know from the testimonies that the culprit in the third visit likely was flying, it makes it clear the thief is Jack-o-Lantern. Accuse them while talking to Pixie to complete the side quest.
