Mid-investigation, Leonard discovered that the victim's car was found in Greeny Lake. Later, Heydi called David after Tyler started accusing Jack for his father's death. They later arrested Tyler for the murder.

Upon admitting to the crime, Tyler said when he moved to Greeny District, John dislike him. John revealed that he thought Tyler was a witch and part of the Naxis. Angry at John, he broke in to his house, grabbed one of his kitchen knives, and stabbed him to death. Judge Peterson sentenced Tyler to 25 years in prison.

Post trial, the player gets help with the chief, saying he left something in the park, making it the surprise. In the park, the player found a present, inside was a welcome card, made from the chief. 

Meanwhile, the player gets to talk with Stacy, saying if she's okay. While investigating, they found Jack's phone in the crime scene. While analyzing, Leonard found out that Jack was searching about how to get the artifacts in Greeny District, which they are underground. They also found Jack's diary in a pile of papers, it was about finding a way to get in the mines to keep the valuables to himself.
