Finally have something that runs and crashes.

This thing is pointing at a wrong memory location due to the fact that
there's another function that STARTS THE SAME.

I'll use another method to do this.

+ *  TokyoNecro.exe+B544C - C7 45 E8 00000000 - mov [ebp-18],00000000
+ *
+ *  Notes:
+ *
+ *  The text is contained into the memory location at [ebp+08].
+ *
+ *  There's a second hook that seems to be capturing the game encyclopedia plus
+ *  extra garbage (only when it is brought to screen): /HS4@B5380:tokyonecro.exe
+ *  https://wiki.anime-sharing.com/hgames/index.php?title=AGTH/H-Codes#More_H-Codes.5B74.5D
+ * 
+ *  I can confirm that that function is called consistently at every call of the
+ *  encyclopedia but I don't know what memory location is a positive number in the hook
+ *  code.
