Bug sizes up the lock on the doors, takes a quick scan to make sure no one is around. Reaching into his vest he pulls out his autopicker , applies it to one of the deadbolts and activates it.
Opening his eyes once again, he is satisfied that the magic was working correctly, he could feel its gently tug on his conciousness as he maintained its effect.
However, as his mysticism tutor taught him, leave nothing to chance.
So as he eased his way out of the alley, he used all of his training to remain silent as he chose the path through the thugs that would expose him to the least amount of proximity.
From his vantage point, Bug taps his chin thoughtfully.
Looking up he looks for any likely neighboring buildings that would provide a different vantage point... ideally looking down into the 32nd unit of the mystic's building.
As Bug gets out of the cab, his training kicks in , he's scanning and looking unobtrusively, seeing the groups of dealers herd and there he quickly makes for an alley between buildings, making his way towards Garbeck's apartment building.
Bug flips through the file, eyes intent on capturing each and every detail.
Looking up to the shadowed image of Mr Lawrence, "OK. Which one's in charge. They'd either have the item or know where it was. Or was one of the deceased, the leader?"
"Whoa, there Mr." Bug exclaims "Don't be so hasty, we're in business for some business.... anybody that ol' Greybeard trusted is someone we can trust...right, Blackie?" he says giving a Black Sheep a look.
"Glad to hear that old Greybeard kept busy and obviously profitable. " Bug says to the screen, leaning against Black Sheep "Well if Greybeard found you useful, I think we might be able to come to an understanding as well."
Feeling the plane come to a stop, Bug closes his eye for a moment and thinks back only a couple of hours ago, the way too quick departure from Seattle....what a snafu that was...won't be headed back there for sometime.
With rueful chuckle, Bug grabs his carry on bag and joins the queue to leave the plane, seeing a couple of his fellow 'runners here and there in the crowd.
While waiting for his baggage, Bug resists the urge to "examine" the contents of the other passengers' pockets.
Having collected his belongings, he sidles up beside Goldylocks just as he finished his comment to Black Sheep.
"That's right Blackie, we've got some nuyen to earn. Hopefully, Greybeard's got a good one for us, instead of that clusterf#!& up north." Bug smiles.
