G 0 START 1 input 0->1 100 Variable["plaza.met_rene"] 1->100 2 Nightwatchman's Booth: The drawers are empty save for old time sheets and receipts. One small box, however, does hold some cheap painkillers. They are slightly out of date. 57 Untitled hub (02) 2->57 3 Untitled hub 31 You: Breathe deep. 3->31 55 You: Get up. 3->55 75 You: Search for a little something-something to help you out. 3->75 4 Variable["cargo.walkway_rene_guard_booth_just_forget"] 5 Variable["cargo.walkway_rene_guard_booth_just_forget"] 4->5 6 !(Variable["cargo.walkway_rene_guard_booth_just_forget"]) 4->6 36 You: I don't see what the big deal is. This sounds pretty normal to me. 5->36 37 You: I'm a cop. I have cop things to do. Murders to solve. People to help. Kim's counting on me. 5->37 44 You: Disco. Mirror balls. Kick-ass moves. Boogie beat. 5->44 71 You: ... oh my God, I went up to a woman and actually said *I want to have fuck with you* earlier. What the hell is wrong with me? 5->71 106 You: I hope I'm not fucking René over by taking his painkillers. 5->106 107 You: I am scared I will never be held or loved in this world again. 5->107 56 Nightwatchman's Booth: Maybe this was a bad idea... 6->56 7 Jump to: [Untitled hub] 73 Untitled hub 7->73 8 Nightwatchman's Booth: Nothing incriminating catches your eye. The cabinets are clean and their sparse contents meticulously organized. There's a framed photograph on the table. 26 Variable["plaza.rene_know_dead"] 8->26 9 You: "It's something to remember him by." 35 Kim Kitsuragi: "You really took an interest in that old soldier." The lieutenant sounds surprised. "I guess there's no harm taking the picture. The dockworkers would probably throw it in the trash anyway." 9->35 10 Nightwatchman's Booth: This is the nightwatchman's booth. The name on the door reads *René Arnoux*. A colourful uniform lies neatly folded on the table. 92 Variable["cargo.walkway_rene_guard_booth_papa_squat"] == false  and  CheckItem("union_membership_card") == false  and  CheckItem("union_membership_card_other") == false 10->92 11 Variable["plaza.met_rene"] 12 Variable["plaza.met_rene"] 11->12 13 !(Variable["plaza.met_rene"]) 11->13 41 Nightwatchman's Booth: It's a black and white photo of a young couple out in a street fair. The man -- René -- is dressed in a Royal Carabineer uniform. The girl is young and very pretty. She is smiling playfully at the camera. 12->41 103 Nightwatchman's Booth: It's a black and white photo of a young couple out in a street fair. The man is young, dark-skinned, and dressed in a Royal Carabineer uniform. The girl is smiling playfully at the camera. 13->103 14 Empathy: René looks like he's about to smile. This photo must be tied to some good memories. 63 IsKimHere() 14->63 15 Nightwatchman's Booth: Oh boy, where to start. Elevated risk of dementia? Mini-strokes? Prophet's disease? Sudden death? Hair death? Erectile malfunction? Critical flatulence? Watery blood? Black mucous? Uncontrollable weeping? Increased sensitivity to l'Opéra? Inoperable joint disorder? Total spinal collapse? 70 Reaction Speed: Don't think about that! Quick, think about something else! 15->70 16 IsDayFrom(5) 17 IsDayFrom(5) 16->17 18 !(IsDayFrom(5)) 16->18 119 Variable["cargo.guardbooth_took_uniform"] 17->119 45 Nightwatchman's Booth: This is the nightwatchman's booth.

"I'm not here to tell you what to do, detective." 76 Jump to: [Untitled hub (02)] 21->76 22 IsDayFrom(5) 23 IsDayFrom(5) 22->23 24 !(IsDayFrom(5)) 22->24 81 Variable["cargo.guardbooth_took_uniform"] 23->81 118 Nightwatchman's Booth: This is the nightwatchman's booth. The name on the door reads *René Arnoux*. 24->118 25 Savoir Faire: Looks like the inhabitant is rather pedantic when it comes to order. 90 You: Leave the picture alone. 25->90 132 You: Take the picture. 25->132 27 Variable["plaza.rene_know_dead"] 26->27 28 !(Variable["plaza.rene_know_dead"]) 26->28 34 Savoir Faire: Looks like the inhabitant was rather pedantic when it came to order. 27->34 28->25 29 Empathy: The young man looks happy as well. He's about to smile, right after this moment frozen in time. You're sure of that. 29->63 30 You: Have a seat. Rest. 124 Nightwatchman's Booth: The chair is not as austere as the rest of the booth. A thin grey pillow is attached to the seat, secured to the stiles by black ribbons. 30->124 96 Nightwatchman's Booth: Stale air floods through your nostrils. Not a single mote of dust floats inside your lungs, though. The inside of the booth is immaculate. 31->96 32 Nightwatchman's Booth: You stand and exit the booth. 32->20 33 Nightwatchman's Booth: You stand and exit the booth. 87 Jump to: [Untitled hub] 33->87 34->90 34->132 91 Jump to: [Untitled hub] 35->91 108 Nightwatchman's Booth: Your nihilistic humour renders the list of side-effects null and void. Just like everything else in this empty world. 36->108 116 Nightwatchman's Booth: The enormity of the case before you dwarfs the list of side-effects. You can't even see the side-effects anymore. They're nothing to you. 37->116 38 Nightwatchman's Booth: This is the nightwatchman's booth. The name on the door reads *René Arnoux*. René left his uniform neatly folded on the table. 112 Savoir Faire: Take it. It's just there. Who cares? It's not like anyone's gonna need it. 38->112 39 Nightwatchman's Booth: Nothing incriminating catches your eye. The cabinets are clean and their sparse contents meticulously organized. Apart from the uniform, the only noteworthy item is a framed photograph on the table. 39->26 40 Nightwatchman's Booth: As you take the colourful uniform, a few cookie crumbs fall to the floor. The owner must have a sweet tooth. As you take the colourful uniform, a few cookie crumbs fall to the floor. René must have had a sweet tooth.

"Not sure I understand your fascination, but sure -- as long as it doesn't take up a whole lot of time." 42->128 43 Volition: Listen... It's okay to take a few minutes to yourself. Sit down and have a breather. 54 Endurance: You need to rest. Your body is aching. Getting in here has taken something out of you. Have a seat. 43->54 130 Nightwatchman's Booth: The imagined dazzle of light overwhelms any list of potential side-effects. Any negative thoughts are drowned out by the fantastic blast of *disco*. 44->130 45->92 46 You: Maybe René is hiding something interesting here. (Search the booth.) 51 IsDayFrom(5) 46->51 47 You: [Leave.] 48 Variable["plaza.rene_know_dead"]  and  Variable["plaza.met_rene"] 49 Variable["plaza.rene_know_dead"]  and  Variable["plaza.met_rene"] 48->49 50 !(Variable["plaza.rene_know_dead"]  and  Variable["plaza.met_rene"]) 48->50 110 Kim Kitsuragi: "I suppose René is not going to be needing it anymore." He studies the uniform. "It's a bit too colourful for my taste, though." 49->110 68 Kim Kitsuragi: "I don't know about stealing people's *very colourful* clothes like that..." He looks on disapprovingly. 50->68 52 IsDayFrom(5) 51->52 53 !(IsDayFrom(5)) 51->53 113 Variable["cargo.guardbooth_took_uniform"] 52->113 53->8 54->73 55->32 97 Jump to: [Untitled hub (02)] 56->97 72 You: Get up. 57->72 95 You: Take the painkillers. 57->95 105 You: "Kim, would you mind if I helped myself to some meds?" 57->105 129 You: Read the side-effects. 57->129 58 Nightwatchman's Booth: Yes. Moving along. 58->97 59 IsKimHere() 60 IsKimHere() 59->60 61 !(IsKimHere()) 59->61 104 Kim Kitsuragi: "Let's get going," the lieutenant says impatiently.

It's instinctual to collect evidence." 66->125 126 You: "*Something* about this man peaks my interest. I think this can be a side-thing." 66->126 67->73 68->19 134 Kim Kitsuragi: "Fantastic. Try not to wear it with other similarly colourful clothes, okay?" 69->134 70->4 71->56 72->33 73->30 73->46 73->47 74 You: "Kim, I'm gonna take a quick look inside." (Search the booth.) 73->74 77 You: Let's see what the nightwatchman keeps in here. (Search the booth.) 73->77 88 You: "So this is where René works. I'm gonna look around." (Search the booth.) "So this is where René worked. I'm gonna look around." (Search the booth.) 73->88 131 You: Take the uniform. 73->131 109 Kim Kitsuragi: "If you must." The lieutenant looks around.

"What murder investigation would be complete without an arbitrary photo collage." 84->133 85 Nightwatchman's Booth: You take the painkillers. They are yours now. 85->76 86 You: Moving along! 86->58 87->73 88->109 90->59 91->73 93 Variable["cargo.walkway_rene_guard_booth_papa_squat"] == false  and  CheckItem("union_membership_card") == false  and  CheckItem("union_membership_card_other") == false 92->93 94 !(Variable["cargo.walkway_rene_guard_booth_papa_squat"] == false  and  CheckItem("union_membership_card") == false  and  CheckItem("union_membership_card_other") == false) 92->94 93->43 94->73 95->85 96->3 97->57 98->134 99 Nightwatchman's Booth: Nothing incriminating catches your eye.

But then... it looks like a military uniform! And wearing that is very honourable. So, a conflict of honour. It's up to you. 112->127 114 Variable["cargo.guardbooth_took_uniform"] 113->114 115 !(Variable["cargo.guardbooth_took_uniform"]) 113->115 114->99 115->39 116->97 117->56 118->92 120 Variable["cargo.guardbooth_took_uniform"] 119->120 121 !(Variable["cargo.guardbooth_took_uniform"]) 119->121 120->45 121->38 122 Kim Kitsuragi: "Fine."
