Or your anomalous body is so resistant to drugs you can't recall the last time you OD'd. Hm. "Benjamin, did you spike it?"
You turn to see that Benjamin is about as shocked as you at his reaction. "Nope."
"We should get out of here." Kiara tries to laugh it off what happened. You take a moment to analyze what he said.
-Likes abandoned or 'non-existent' places. That applies to NOWHERE, ABANDONED KETSUK ESTATE, and CONDEMNED RESEARCH FACILITY #D-ZZZ-9.
-Searching after an anomaly? While that could be in the three places you mentioned, you know an anomaly is at the STYGIAN WATERING HOLE
-Felt like he was being watched and probably left his apartment here a while ago. Probably gangstalked by the spooks and snapped?
-Has some sort of invisibility implant. Makes spotting him REAL hard unless you blindly stumble onto where he's at. Good thing you have NIGHTMARE VISION GOOGLES
Not a lot about his personality beyond 'paranoic' so convincing him to follow you may be difficult since he's not a literal 10 year old. You at least know where to start looking.
That knocks off three locations he probably hasn't been to. Knocking out three for basically no real cost is nice: Though there's nothing stopping you from heading there anyways.
You collect the money off the floor. A lot of it is quarters in plastic bags but there's also a decent amount of green wads here.
>$350 and 50 CENTS OBTAINED!
>+1% PROGRESS TO MAX'S SPARK DUE TO PASSING CONNECTIONS CHECK!
...You give one of the two quarters to Benjamin and the other to Max. The two fist bump each other at the tiny, tiny pay raise.
"Let's get going." Kiara pats you on the shoulder. The six of you exit the building now that you found everything you wanted here. You felt like you missed out on intel about the places you're heading to or getting a better deal from the Huxley but oh well. Not everything can be perfect. It doesn't take long before the six of you are ready to head to their next location.
A PERFECT NOTHING begins to vibrate. You turn back to see a good chunk of the people wandering around the streets or hanging around the balconies look dazed and confused. As if they don't remember the last hour.
>-1 CHARGE on A PERFECT NOTHING! The people of this apartment complex won't remember you except for the Couple, the Huxley, and the Sailor.
>NEW LOCATION FOR SIDE QUEST UNLOCKED!
Choose the next location to visit.
>STYGIAN WATERING HOLE. A local bar known for having popular with criminals and syndicates. While it could provide backalley info, there's also a sentient anomaly there. SEATH could've been lured here.
>ROASTED SOUL CAFÉ. A coffee place associated with the rich and famous. Max should be able to get you into this. Gives you a chance to use that coffee coupon and to talk to some rich people who may know something.
>BODY GRINDSET GYM. Seath's probably not here but you could check this place out to help your allies build their GAINS. Could be that an incompetent Spook is waiting here too.
