Sweat starts trickling down your brow. 2->46 3 Visual Calculus: More old bullet holes, half a century at least, from the Revolution. 30 morekimquestions 3->30 4 Kim Kitsuragi: "Bullet holes generally look the same, so... probably." He leans in to inspect the wall. "But you are right, more old bullet holes from the Revolution." 28 You: "Figured as much." [Discard thought.] 4->28 32 You: "Man, how many people got shot during that Revolution?" 4->32 5 You: "Okay. But what can you tell me about the Revolution?" 29 Kim Kitsuragi: "Not much. I don't have a *fresh perspective* on it. Should we go?" 5->29 6 You: "So, no crime has happened here?" 36 Kim Kitsuragi: "Perhaps *a* crime of a sort, ages ago... but no, these do not warrant an investigation." 6->36 7 Kim Kitsuragi: "Might be the after-effects of your... past escapades. What are you looking at?" 27 Jump to: [morekimquestions] 7->27 8 Kim Kitsuragi: "No, we're not constructors and renovators.

Fuckin' horrible mojo. The end draws near! 10->44 17 Pain Threshold: Your chest feels tight, looking at them. It's closing in... caving in, ever tighter.
