Kiara double checks to make sure the door is locked before addressing you. "Best to find what we're looking for and get out."
"I don't like it here. Hopefully Max and the others are doing fine..." Benjamin whimpers, clearly uncomfortable with the situation your group is now in.
The actual corpses don't provide anything of use; anything useful was long since looted or destroyed. The actual files were dealt with a lot less finesse. Benjamin manages to dig up a folder with some very interesting information on it. He lets you and Kiara skim through it.
Skipping past most of the boring or meaningless papers in it, you find out that a $75k cash deposit was sent to this station as 'security expenses' from a 'Ms. Friese-Greene' in exchange for them 'dealing with some competition.' In addition to this deposit, there's also a shipment of 50 A-Energy boxes and 'other goodies' being transferred to a warehouse nearby the station.
Father Above. They were bribed HEAVILY to listen to those tips, huh?
"Okay." Kiara closes the folder. "We're dealing with a corporate power schism and possibly some spook interference as well. 75k in cash and 17k in A-ENERGY is not something to throw around willy nilly."
"Q-Company probably wouldn't like it if they knew about this either." Benjamin points towards the corpses you found. It's clear that you need to get out of here. ASAP. Pronto.
>BRIBERY FOLDER OBTAINED! (Oh, Q-Company isn't going to like this. Should also help with dealing with any other corruption you find in the other 3-4 districts you visit. Maybe you can search the warehouse for goods?)
After unlocking and relocking the RECORDS room, the three try to sneak out of the security only section...

"I WOULDN'T MOVE IF I WAS YOU."
"IT'S YOU GUYS! WHAT THE FUCK ARE YOU DOING HERE?"
Your group slowly turns to see the two security guards harassing Heathcliff earlier. Both of them have their guns trained on the three of you. Given that you three were expecting to get in and out without any real issue, none of you have your weapons ready.
"WAIT." One of the guards looks over at the RECORDS room. "THE LOCK WAS MESSED WITH."
"SHIT. I THOUGHT WE WERE ALREADY GOING TO BE FIRED FROM THE KRAKATOA STUNT BUT...HA. SEEMS LIKE THE THREE OF YOU ARE FUCKED NOW."
Benjamin can't attempt to hide his disgust from them. "Oh? Don't you mean you're fucked? I'm pretty sure Q-Corp would LOVE to hear-"
"THEY'RE NOT GOING TO HEAR SHIT." The left guard turns off the safety on his Glock. The right one follows quickly after. Shit. You really don't want to start a fight here. Not because you'd lose, no, you could probably win. You really don't want to draw any unnecessary attention.
"You were sloppy! If it wasn't us, someone would've figured it out eventually! You could've hidden your mess better at least!" Kiara beeps out.
"WON'T MATTER. AS LONG AS WE DEAL WITH <span class="mu-i">YOU</span> THREE, IT'LL ALL BE PEACHY."
You take a moment to think of a way out of this situation.
