[ JK002N | VOICE | IC DATE ]

[Jet doesn't typically do the radios. Too much chatter goes against how he works, but this time, there's an exception. He might have just texted if texting wasn't a pain in the ass right now. As it is, his voice sounds strained even through the crackle of the radio, which at least aids in masking the occasional sparking sound his shoulder is still giving off.]

JK002N -Jet- calling on anyone who's got an idea to spare. Martin and I are at a door, North-Northwest. There's...there's a card-reader here. Gave off a hell of a shock. Anyone find an employee card or anything? Or rubber gloves...

We're taking suggestions, cause it's definitely something beyond it.

[Caution tells him even this much might be dangerous to say if they're being monitored and someone doesn't want them over here...but leaving just yet wasn't an option and he wasn't an invalid yet. They could handle it.]

Are you two all right?

[It really had been too long since something had happened to Martin.]

Is that the door I showed you on the map? We found a card key here but it is decorated with flowers and Senku said it was for a hotel.

[metalicarus]

We're fine.

[He shoots Martin a look on his end.]

Yeah, pretty sure it's the same one. Could be attached to the hotel...but it seems kinda far for it. All we had was a library card.

[Said in the way that implies they tried it, but...]

[meadqueen]

She described it to me as military so I'm not sure it will work, but it's worth a try. The hotel here is so damaged that locked doors aren't really a concern.

[metalicarus]

I'm still not convinced the hotel wasn't for military, but possibly not. Military installations just aren't known much for keeping in their own designated space.

[meadqueen]

I don't suppose we’ll truly know until we know what the people who built these places were doing here.

[metalicarus]

Maybe once we find enough evidence. Some surviving documents would be the most useful. Better than local hearsay.

[meadqueen]

It's strange. It really does seem like everything has been deliberately cleared out.

[metalicarus]

If they had advanced warning and were organized enough about it, an emergency shut down would explain why some things are still here, but nothing actually informative or useful.

[meadqueen]

That is what it's seemed like to me: these places have been systematically cleared out.

[metalicarus]

Yeah. Orders on high. The question remains why...and we don't have enough to do anything but guess. For now.

[And he's not really willing to guess on an unsecure channel. Maybe when they're in person again...or if they can actually manage to get through this damn door.
If Martin will let him try again.]

[meadqueen]

Indeed. Stay safe, Jet.
