contents We analyze the asymptotic properties a special solution of the $(3,4)$ string equation, which appears in the study of the multicritical quartic $2$-matrix model. In particular, we show that in a certain parameter regime, the corresponding $τ$-function has an asymptotic expansion which is `topological' in nature. Consequently, we show that this solution to the string equation with a specific set of Stokes data exists, at least asymptotically. We also demonstrate that, along specific curves in the parameter space, this $τ$-function degenerates to the $τ$-function for a tritronquée solution of Painlevé I (which appears in the critical quartic $1$-matrix model), indicating that there is a `renormalization group flow' between these critical points. This confirms a conjecture from [1]. [1] The Ising model, the Yang-Lee edge singularity, and 2D quantum gravity, C. Crnković, P. Ginsparg, G. Moore. Phys. Lett. B 237 2 (1990)
