On Elliot Edward’s desk, as identified by the nametag, in the RPD’s West Office. Oddly, this isn’t specific to his scenario.

General Files in Resident Evil 2 File 1: Record of Events This guide contains mild spoilers for locations and events throughout the game. Note that while developed photos from rolls of film do get stored in your inventory’s files section, they do not count for Lore Explorer, and as such, aren't mentioned here. Over the course of both characters’ second runs, you receive two notes from the character you aren’t currently playing, left in conspicuous locations. This does require a full clear of three of the four story scenarios, and a partial clear of the other character’s second run. Finding and reading all 58 unique files in the game unlocks the Lore Explorer trophy/achievement. Whenever you read a new file, the game tracks it in the Records screen under the “Lore Explorer” heading.
