Long time no talk, LanDC! It surely is a "huge" find, the King of Shenmue!
Great job as always!
Though I don't have much time now, I have to point out one important thing.
OSY's name is 雲海 (Yunhai) actually, and 和尚 (Osho) part is his title. I'm not sure what is the right way to call Buddhist priest in English, but 雲海和尚 could be something like Master Yunhai?
Oh, and now I know why his code name is OSY; we spell 和尚 as Osyo in Romaji in Japan.

I was wondering this too! I assume the building itself is long gone, but is there any subtitle files/dialogue referring to it buried somewhere?This is really cool, it reminds me of when the thing about the "Master Emerald" in Sonic 2 Beta was debunked about 20 years ago! I don't suppose anything about Tiger Gate Bldg (C-2) was found other than the basement bit with Baihu?
The reason we are looking for the pharmacy is because the entrance to the mountain road leading to Miao Village is near that pharmacy.

Also, you can speak for yourself, but considering I pretty much organised the acquiring and analysis of the beta, I’d personally say that not everything has been exhausted yet.. and that I may or may not have leads for other things.
@LanDC are you planning on investigating the beta further? Or are you drawing the line at Miao Village?
I wonder when it was canned? And why? Just a lack of space on the GD-ROM maybe? It's all very intriguing anyway.I was wondering this too! I assume the building itself is long gone, but is there any subtitle files/dialogue referring to it buried somewhere?
I seem to recall certain developers saying that shenmue 2 became far, far too huge in size for its own good, so perhaps upon deciding what things to finally cut, they looked at the village and concluded that it just didn't work for it to be a seemingly peaceful and isolated place just outside a big city. Convenient reasoning there. Good but not awesome like everything else in the game.I wonder when it was canned? And why? Just a lack of space on the GD-ROM maybe? It's all very intriguing anyway.
Great work, it's amazing how mysteries are still being solved to this day. I'd imagine the yellow heads killed Luo but I'd like to know if he just got jumped by a bunch of them or if one member like Do Niu or Yuan did it.
