Newspaper

Instead of picking up a passenger, Houssine can read a newspaper to learn new information that may help with the case or unlock new conversational paths with passengers. Newspapers are divided up in to thirds, allowing you to choose how much you want to read. Each section takes up 30 minutes of in-game time. Newspapers becomes available after Night 1 is cut short by Busset, however they are unavailable on the final night.

Newspapers can be purchased once per night at the gas station shop for 4€, but can also be randomly left behind by passengers in your taxi. Because of this, it's possible to read more than one per night and to hold more than one at a time (A number appears next to the icon).

Articles:
''You pull a newspaper out of your glove compartment and start leafing through it... Eventually, something grabs your eye...''

 The Judge
 * It's a sensationalist article about the third victim, Simon Gorodischer. He is thought to have escaped Argentina in the 1980s because he was a member of the Process, the military dictatorship that had been in power. Pretty important information, in your opinion. [2 CLUES]
 * It's a controversial subject: the victims of Rictodin are appealing in an international class-action suit. They still haven't see a single cent of compensation. The article describes the hundreds of people affected with partial or total paralysis, nerve damage, Parkinson's... The victims are ready to fight for as long as it takes...
 * It's an article about the recent "PoliceLeaks" incident... that retraces another data leak. Two years ago, a bunch of confidential police documents were accidentally released. Documents about Ronan Besson, Charles Bougrain and Simon Gorodischer, the Judge's first three victims. Intriguing...

 Angel of Death
 * Just another article on the Angel of Death... Reading between the lines, you understand that the fourth victim left her entire fortune to charity. You take note...


 * It's an article on the Angel of Death and the actress Zita Vellpeau, the third victim. Her neighbour apparently heard women's voices coming from the victim's apartment on the night of the murder.


 * According to this very angry article, Jules Lima, the Angel of Death's second victim, was an eco-terrorist... Fighting at all costs to prevent people from eating meat and using their cars. You smile as you finish the text... even though the term eco-terrorist is a bit extreme, it could explain a few things...

 The Sandman
 * It's an article about inheritance and wealth in France. They mention Henri du Tilleux. The journalist explains why the execution of his will has been blocked since his murder. It makes you think. The information doesn't go so well with the theory that the killer killed for money...


 * They mention the name of the hospital where one of your passengers, Djena, worked. You learn from the article that lots of medicine went missing... including pancuronium bromide...

Articles that require meeting passengers first to unlock:
 * It's just a few lines -- a funny anecdote: a man dressed as Santa Claus had to be taken off the roof of a building by firemen. He was highly inebriated and stated he did not know how he had gotten there...


 * You happen upon a flashy ad for a start-up of taxi restaurants. Its name? Mobile Home. You sigh... (Referring to Camille)


 *  [ Apollonie Girardeau ] 1 It's a rather positive critique of a bar called "Soliles". You make note of the information with interest. In your line of work, that kind of thing can always come in handy.


 *  [ Pierrette Manderas ] 2 It's a lukewarm critique of "La Pierre"... According to the critic, the problem is not with the food, but with the restaurant's marketing. When you spend your time chasing stars and honours, you forget why you opened a restaurant in the first place. The tone of the article is sad and bleak.


 * It's a quite involved article about the infamous "PoliceLeaks" affair: who, why and how all that confidential data was released to the public. The justice department is now looking at corrupt and violent cops who are known to be out of line. Concerned associations applaud how transparent they are being. Yet, the more you read, the more you get the impression the journalist does not agree with their methods...3


 *  A colourful illustration informs you that Paris has broken all its own records in terms of pollution. The particularly cold and wet winter is to blame. You unconsciously begin to cough.


 * ''It's a short article mentioning the strike led by a handful of employees of Confiseries du Marais, a luxury candy brand. The employees demand better wages. The owners -- the Groupe Diamant -- are threatening to relocate their factories abroad.


 * It's a type of minor news item you seem to read in every issue... Two youths were arrested for attacking Jewish people in the street. The article is hastily-written and without emotion...


 * It's an enthusiastic review of a new video game about the Uberisation of society. You scan the text, a bit lost. A video game about a taxi driver? Sounds cool.


 * A short, very sarcastic text informs you your fellow cap drivers are going to protest this weekend against vehicles for hire. You shrug. Your boss treats you better than most companies...


 * It's an article written by a group of French athletes... They want Basque pelota to become an official sport in the 2024 Olympics.


 * In a short, rather terse article, a journalist explains that the 200th American-style coffee house just opened in Paris. She regrets the disappearance of REAL, authentic bistos. You sigh.


 * It's a movie review. The pitch and the actors, who sound vaguely familiar, make you want to go see it. You can't quite remember the last time you went to see a movie. If you're going to sit in the dark for two hours, you might as well be driving your cab.


 * It's a tiny article in the corner of one page: ongoing protests in the small South American country of French Guiana have been paralysing the territory for two months. You raise your head. Until now, you'd heard nothing about these protests...


 * It's just a typical minor news item, the kind you seem to read every week: a mosque in the suburbs was spray-painted. The photo puts the graffitied insults on full display.


 * It's an in-depth article about the Albatros, six months after the tragedy. It's all very vague, and gives no new information. Even more disturbing, the tone is quite cynical, mean even, when the journalist refers to the tenant associations...4


 * ''It's a photo of an important French athlete -- a well-known tennis player. He's just been arrested in Switzerland for embezzling millions of euros in image reproduction rights. You sigh.


 * ''It's a poorly-written and very angry article about the mayor of Paris making on neighbourhood entirely pedestrian. Apparently, everyone hates the idea... other than the tourists.


 * You learn from a few lines that a photo exhibit about Parisian taxi drivers will soon open. You wonder if any actual taxi drivers will go to see it...


 * ''It's a funny few lines: some workers discovered a barrel of wine from 1789 in someone's basement. They are going to bottle the wine and sell it, with all proceeds going directly to the workers' pension funds.


 * It's a photo of the French soccer team, who just won a match against a team from... Vanuatu. You have no idea where Vanuatu is.

1/3 read: ''You turn the page and stop... You've read about a third of the newspaper.'' (Keep reading.) (Stop reading.)

Keep reading: ''You stop reading and go back a few pages... you thought you saw something...''

2/3 read: **You sigh*. *You only have a third left to read... (Read the whole thing.) (Stop reading.)

Keep reading: ''As soon as you get to the page, you stop. You instinct tells you to look at...'' [Sic]

3/3 read: ''You shut the paper. It'll end up in the trash tonight. If you remember it's there. Otherwise, it will spend the rest of its days in your glove compartment.''

Notes:

 * 1: Apollonie's article should be read before meeting her in order to drive her to the club 'Soliles' (Read Night 3, Page 1: The Judge)


 * 2: Pierrette's article should be read before meeting her in order to get the Passidex entry: You already knew "La Pierre". However, it is not necessary, as you can instead pick up either Anita, Géraldine or Sophie & Marc Veterini beforehand to get the same entry. (Read Night 2, Page 2: The Sandman)


 * 3: Likely related to the judge case - but no clue popped up... (Read Night 2 & 3, Page 1 & 2: The Judge)


 * 4: May be related to the Sandman case - it's currently unconfirmed if it only appears during that investigation.

Not sure where to put this yet: ''You notice a newspaper on the backseat. Your passenger must have left it behind... or the one before? You grab it and put it away. Could come in handy.''

May rename this trivia once everything is sorted and it's not meta comments.
