Creepy huh?

I'll draw my pistol and wave it at the doobrie.

He suddenly launches the bread knife at you. It misses by a mile and clatters against the wall.

Eat hotline, sucka!

Should disable him long enough for me to tie the fucker up using my climbing kit, wind a few loops and knots around his arms, wrists, legs and ankles.

Kinky.

It certainly does. Little fella twitches and smokes a little after the round hits, and bleeds slightly. You suspect the Deathsuit is just for show and not actually protective. The bleeding stops pretty quickly.

Huh, I wonder if I fried it?

Providing it doesn't leap up and try to bite my head off after 2 minutes, I'll examine it for maker's marks.

When I get up to Sumner's office I will take a look for things.

Detect (4): 8, 3 + 4 = 15

Also, if she has a computer I'll see what I can do with it.

Computer Use (4): 4, 10 + 4 = 18

You know that Doobries are made from left over stormer meat, right? And you remember how Gerald would regularly get damn near ripped in half by machine guns, and be back to full health again in mere minutes?

Not saying he will definitely have full on magical stormer regeneration, but you probably want to play it safe.

So, I'll rest the end of Bertha's barrel on his face for the time being.

There's a label inside its Deathsuit;

Code: Select all

The thing starts coming back to life after about half an hour.

You don't find a lot other than general office stuff. Under her terminal is a ticket stub from a bar, Des Res, dated about three weeks ago. You log onto her terminal, but without any account details you can't access anything you wouldn't normally be able to access.

I think that might be the place she met Briony and her fella. I'm drawing a blank on ideas at the moment. I'll speak to Haynes.

Dirk wrote:Mr. Haynes? Dirk here. To paraphrase the local parlance - shit just got real weird. Sumner is dead, murdered by an Intruder model doobrie. I'm on my way over to site now, Grimmie has it under guard. I believe the thing shouted something about a "tide of crimson tears" - ever heard of this happening before?

We've drawn blanks as to why Sumner would want Briony investigating in the first place. Something fishy with her boyfriend though, not sure I trust him.

Seems like Langley might have been duped into this - doubt he looked into much beyond it being some good PR for himself.

Any word on the possibility of us getting a BPN for this investigation?

Oh yeah, our BPN issuer is dead, does that mean we don't get told off for making a hash of things?

Never heard the tears thing, but it sounds like the sort of thing an Intruder Doobrie would spout. A meaningless imitation of the real thing. Never head of one killing anyone. At least not outside cheap gore films.

Grimmie, can you check around for other Doobries in the apartment? We could have one as a witness!

I should still have my IR goggles on, and my motion detector out.

Detect
2,4 +5 = 11

Guess I'm still a bit shaken up from Mr Breadknife.

I'll look up the info on the bar.

No more Doobries are apparent.

Apparently it was once a thriving luxury bar for rich travellers at the space terminal. However, during an expansion they changed the terminal from passengers to freight and the clientele dried up. It gets by, but it's not as classy as it was.

I think I should get back on surveilling people. Do we have a location for Briony's duder?

Last you knew he was still in the flat.
