First of all WELL DONE to everyone involved in the translation, you have done a brilliant job!! i couldn't have done it, youve helped us all out!

second, what does it mean, I haven't been through all the posts, maybe it has already been mentioned, apologies if it has

so has some information been leaked from the company? or am i misreading this?

what if to get another vital bit of correspondence from the whistle blower we need to buy more items from the Slusho Store? maybe its just an advertisting trick to bleed money out of us fans. seems that way to us.

I could be reading it wrong, but I dont think it is a whistle blower, but an actual upstanding member of Tagruato.

i posted this on another topic. I too am of the view that it is a tagruato employee who is sending these notes.

if he gets caught by Ganu, we will be sure to hear about it on the website as an example for all other employees to set an example.

What I mean is, I may be missing something, but I cant see any reason to believe this memo isnt anything against tagruato. It seems to be informing people that normal lines of communication have been closed.

"FAILURE TO REPORT ANY SUSPICIOUS ACTS TO THE CHUAI MANAGEMENT WILL BE IN DIRECT VIOLATIONS OF COMPANY POLICY AND WILL DEALT WITH ACCORDINGLY WITHOUT EXCEPTION."

This line is what makes me think so.

I think someone should keep an eye on the number of employees on the Chuai station to see if it goes any lower. that would confirm the missin ppl

heres my view. this is what i see as the story behind the notes.

upon receiving the memo, the tagruato employee realises that he cannot send the frequent letter to his agents outside of the tagruato company (maybe the cause). So he waits until urgent news is needed to be broadcasted to his ppl and does so via the slusho factory (which i think he is in control of maybe a manager or a partner of the company).

the memo if this is taken into accout acts as a reason for not replying via normal post, and gives the message loud and clear to his receipient, who will without a doubt, receive the message if it is placed inside numerous slusho deliveries.

When keeno said Whistle Blower he was referring to the person who wrote the note on the back of the memo. Most likely a Tagruato employee, but where is he? I would most likely say on the Chuai station as the memo, on which the note was written, seems to have been directed to the employees on that station. But that then raises the question, how did the memo/note get in a Slusho merchandise package? If we look at this IG, the Slusho distribution centre must be in Japan (hence the Japanese paper its wrapped in).

I'm wondering how the whistle blower will contact us next?

The handwritten note on the back is signed as Whistle Blower

whis·tle-blow·er /ˈʰwɪsəlˌbloʊər, ˈwɪs-/ [hwis-uhl-bloh-er, wis-]
–noun a person who informs on another or makes public disclosure of corruption or wrongdoing.

Glad to see this thing fully translated!

Just thought I'd point out that in the first paragraph when it says "because of the incident that took place," the word incident uses the japanese word for a criminal act. Considering that, I think it's safe to assume that the 'incident' was someone's actions, not some disaster on the station or something.
