Anything of interest in these rooms?

Permalink

The ones nearest the door seem to be various kinds of utility or storage rooms. There's some empty rooms past that, some that look like exam rooms from a doctor's office, one that looks like an office space and has several terminals...

Permalink

Don't suppose they happened to have left notes on the terminals conveniently explaining who was working here and what they were doing...

Permalink

Nope! At least not on these ones. There's a note reminding someone to refill the coffee, though. 

Permalink

...Heh. Some things don't change.

Permalink

"Do you want me to search for coffee here, Mistress?"

Permalink

"I doubt there's any left... but if you do spot some, definitely pick it up."

Permalink

"I will, Mistress."

Permalink

"Good girl."

And onwards.

Permalink

The hallway doesn't extend much farther, until they come to a door locked much like the original one, except perhaps a bit more intensely - with a doorframe with yellow and black stripes, and a blue sign reading 'Authorized Personnel Only' on the door itself. 

Permalink

Wow. Who ever bothers with the warning paint like that?

"Guessing that there's something important behind here," Ellie says, preparing to jack in.

Permalink

"Possibly dangerous, too."

Permalink

"I'll be counting on your protection."

Permalink

"You'll have it."

Permalink

"Thanks, Cat."

Thus reassured, Ellie can begin her hack.

Permalink

It's similar enough to the first door that she can get through much more quickly!

However it'll take some extra hacking to disable the warning alarm apparently meant to trigger even if the door is opened properly by an authorized user.

Permalink

Whoops.

Hopefully she can get through that quick enough...

Permalink

- Just barely!

Permalink

Yeah. No problem. That's why she's the best.

"Should be good to go," she reports.

Permalink

Time to open the door, then?

Permalink

Yep. Time to find out what authorization these personnel were hiding.

Permalink

The door opens into - what seems to be a sort of airlock room, actually. There's a plain white room with a big console before a dark window, next to a door.

Permalink

"Looks like an observation room or something."

Permalink

"Wonder what they were observing, then."

Permalink

Maybe the console has clues. Ellie will go poke it.
