Opposed roll: 5d6t5 2

"Never mind. We're not in some fancy Pashupati people medic temple, right?"

At first, you didn't realize a lot. He took the money and handed you the pistol. Then the doc nodded to you and blinked.
"All right", he said, with an air of confusion about him. "Right. If that's all... I have work to do, you know."
With that he starts to move towards the door, obviously a bit uneasy on his feet, but unwilling to show that he's not well.

"Ok, I'll call you about that insulin pump as soon as I've spoken to my aunt." Cinder walked out, still watching out if he'd need to catch the doctor.
"You don't look so good. Maybe you should open a window and sit down for a moment", he said before he left the room.

"I'm fine", he answers through clenched teeth. His face is slightly paler than it was before. Then he dives through the door.

When he was outside, Cinder called the team: <<I've got the injector and the doctor got a dose of the drug. Hopefully it works as prescribed - by the way I don't think he has ratted you out. He seems the kind of man who doesn't want anyone's attention.>>

I'll go back in a minute to see how he is.>>

Old message, before altering:"Well done.
His ork-bodyguard doesn't seem to be around, area is clear for you to leave."



@Volker: just so I get this right: the bodyguard came through the entrance-door, right? The one that leads to the street?

@Team: So... I guess we're done here? Phew, glad that went by so smoothly.
Then our next move should be the weedman, right?

Nope. Last time you saw him, he came through the same door as Harka, from the interior of the building. He still might be inside.

Oh, ok, I got that the wrong way, thought he came from the outside. In that case, if you don't mind, I'd like to alter my message to Cinder as follows:
<< Watch out when you go back to check on him. Harka's got quite a nasty bodyguard, if he sees you with his likely dead master, he'll go ballista.
Safer to just leave now.>>

<<Acknowledged. We can test this later. I'll meet you back at the flat. For our next step we'll need again a interrogation chamber and the van. Oh, and it might be a good idea to have a spirit search for the guy, so we don't have to follow him around.>>

Cinder replied.

IIRC, apart from Harka, there are two more leads: breaking into the temple, or the data Mark stole from Harka.

During the drive to the apartment, Cinder called up an online directory of a motel just at the edge of the city. He knew the place from a murder that had taken place there: If there was one place where no one could hear screams it was this one. Booking a room was no problem at all - even with a fake SIN.

Then he waited for his chummers to arrive.

Scarcrow had stopped on the way to the apartment to get some food, arriving shortly after Cinder.

It takes Mark almost two days of waiting, watching, observing, disguising, chattering, waiting, watching, waiting, watching... until the man appears at the temple.
The description the vendor gave is fit. The young man, a norm, is in his late twenties, maybe his early thirties. His reddish-brown beard reaches almost to his breast, though it's growing thin in its lower parts. His hair matches the beard: It hardly ever saw a comb. Instead, it's just hanging down in long tangles and tails. Despite his appearance, "gross" is not the best word to describe him. He doesn't seem dirty in comparison to other people in the temple and the area around. His orange robe is relatively clean, the spot on his forehead shining bright in a pale face. He seems friendly and nice. When Mark first spots him, and immediately alerts the group, he is on his way to enter the temple. His expression is bright, he seems gleeful.

Cinder was - as usually - at work on patrol when the call came. No time to change out of uniform so he called the team:
<<I'll take care of a distraction, so you can nab the guy. Give me a sign when you are in position.>>

Cinder than proceeded to drive quickly but without flashing his lights to the indicated place.

If no one holds him up:

The man enters what Mark came to no as the prayer hall. This is the place where the yogis (and wannabes) go to meditate and focus their spirits. It is publicly acessible in principle, but of course, the incognito templeguards are always watchful.

Can I assume that it's Scarcrow's shift to stay in the flat as a lookout/backup since Cinder is on patrol and Mark at the temple?  I guess this would be the most logical decision for professional investigators.

"All right, coming."
 I guess we wait until we have less spectators, on his way home or so. Mark, did ya see from where came?"


The big troll left sword and swordbelt inside the flat, stuffed his shock-gloves inside the pockets of his coat and left.
