Suspect 2 - Freddy Nielsen (continued)

When we last saw Gillian and Metal Gear:

Junk Count: 1

LOOK AT REMAINS

Metal: It appears to be dead.
Gillian: Damn! Those things are tough as heck!

INVESTIGATE REMAINS

Metal: It's [sic] functions appear to have been completely terminated.
Gillian: So that skin tissue we found under Gibson's nails came from this woman, huh?

Metal: So it was Lisa and Freddy who killed Jean.
Gillian: Freddy... that's right! So where's he?
Metal: We can contact the Junk Collection Team later. Let's get out of this apartment for now.

Metal: We're outside now.

Suddenly the apartment lights come on.

Gillian: What the? A light just came on! There's not supposed to be anyone in there!
Metal: Perhaps Freddy has returned.
Gillian: There's only one entrance and we're standing right next to it! How did he get in there?
Metal: Shall we investigate?

We have the option to KNOCK or YELL, but I think stealth is best here.

INVESTIGATE > POSSIBLE EXITS

Metal: This appears to be the only way in or out of the apartment.

INVESTIGATE > DOOR

Metal: The door is locked.
Gillian: That's funny. I could have sworn it wasn't locked.

INVESTIGATE > LOCK

Metal: This is a standard electronic lock. I can open this without too much difficulty.

INVESTIGATE > DOOR

Metal: It's a standard electronic lock. Someone must have activated it.

Suddenly, Metal's alarm sounds.

Metal: I'm reading motion. Someone is in there!

OPEN DOOR

Gillian: Metal, open it!
Metal: Okay. Now establishing Alpha-One link... Link made. Executing search of lock code of Apartment 202..........
Gillian: Hurry it up!
Metal: Just a bit longer. I'm in Alpha One's maintenance records for the MR district... Lock code found! Now opening the door...
Gillian: Good work!

LOOK > AROUND AREA

Metal: I don't see Freddy anywhere!

LOOK > AROUND AREA

Metal: He doesn't appear to be in this room.

INVESTIGATE > AROUND AREA

Metal: There is no sign of anyone in this room.

INVESTIGATE > AROUND AREA

Metal: There is nothing on my infra-red sensors, either.

LISTEN

Metal: I don't hear anything besides us.

LOOK AT REMAINS

Metal: It's in the same condition as it was a few minute ago. It hasn't been touched.

Metal's alarm sounds.

Metal: Motion! I read motion coming from the bathroom!!

ENTER BATHROOM

Gillian: Metal, you ready? Let's go!
Metal: Okay...

Gillian: Huh? The bathtub is empty. That thing was filled with water just a few minutes ago.

Metal's alarm sounds again!

Metal: I read motion! This room!
Gillian: Damn! Where is he?

Metal: Gillian! Behind you!

BUT THERE'S NOWHERE ON THE GRID TO HIT HIM. I shoot the top grid four times in hope a random shot gets him or something...

Gillian: I've had it...
Metal: Gillian...?!

Oh fuck!!! Gillian's about to get a Gibson-special!!! But then-

I have a few questions here:

1. What just happened?
2. Who is that?
3. What is my favorite music track in this game?
4. Why is head explosion a recurring theme in my LP threads?

Find out answers to the first three of these questions in the next upd- Ah fuck that noise...

FIND OUT NOW!

Have you considered the possibility that you're a Scanner? Not my style, either way. I'll stick to Snatchers.

"Well, well.... what do we have here?"



I owe you one, Random. But no kill stealing

Random's voice kinda bugs me.

His voice is set to "Cocky-ass badass". Just like mine is set to "awesome badass ladies' man suave detective".

Hey, your paycheck doesn't depend on your headcount, as long as the Snatchers you find end up in the junk heap. We've got a perfectly good set-up here. You do the investigation, I don't let you get yourself killed.

Your attempts to pick up women would say otherwise, Gillian.

Does Gillian seem a little... special... to anybody else? "Well, here we are outside the apartment of the Snatcher who killed my fellow Junker. I wonder how I should handle this." Knock, then yell 'Hey open up! Junker out here!'

I dunno, it just seems there might be a better way to handle it than to announce "Hey got your sworn enemy out here! My job is to hunt you down!"



Well, what else is he gonna do? Pose as a vacuum salesman? He can't just burst in and start searching or threatening people without concrete evidence. And without a police badge, he'd have a hard time passing himself off as a normal cop.

Other than letting his guard down in the bathroom, he handled it about as best he could. Why do you think I'm not big on investigation?
