>>5934562Alright, ten minutes up. Time to move. Let's go over it on the way over.
We are poor, rain-soaked TOURISTS here in this natural resource rich nation to enjoy their hiking trials and wonderful local cuisine. Since no one is buying that for a heart-beat and we're mostly in suits and ties and with foreign accents, that makes it even better. They won't believe we're tourists, we'll say we're tourists, and then they'll ask us about our interests and we can talk about renewable energy, natural gas pipelines and international geopolitics. They'll think we're ressource scouts for some European conglomerate interested in expanding, which explains our ties, cars and bewildered look.
Basically: don't sweat it. If anyone gets inquisitive, just tell them whatever. They'll all think we're here to perpetrate a business scheme.
>>5934615Well, you're *driving*. Since Holiday got the cars locked in the rental, we'll have to get into it somehow to get it going. You're a tech guy, you can probably multitool your past a locked car door. Rental's not exactly got great off-road capability, but if we gotta go quick . . .
. . . As for that firearms discharge, I think you're right. No bullet holes or busted windows anywhere. Nothing. They firing out into the woods, then. Something. . . in there? My spook-a-deer theory is the best I've got. Although hunters don't often stand around in a parking lot loosening off rounds. No blood or anything. Maybe someone was testing a gun?
