You awoken to Rebecca pouring water on your face.
Rebecca:"good morning."
You:"how long was I out"
Rebecca:"about an hour."
Pain threshold: you feel dull, throbbing pain on your chest.
You:"why does my chest hurt?"
Rebecca:"I may have hit you a few times to wake you up."
You start to stand but your legs give out.
Rebecca:"don't hurt yourself."
You try to stand again and this time you're able to walk but you're unsteady.
Inland empire: maybe that psycho has arasaka implants.
You: who are you?
Inland empire: I'm your gut feeling and your imagination.
You: how will you help me?
Inland empire: well it's good to think with your gut sometimes.
You: I have this guy to help me with that.
Half-light: why am I being brought into this?
Inland empire: he's not gut feeling. He's your paranoia and fight or flight. I'm your true gut feeling. Now hurry up and search the body.
You: fine.
You walk over to the corpse and begin to prod around his corpse.
Rebecca:"what are you doing?"
You:"I'm searching the corpse for clues."
Rebecca:"clues for what?"
You:"his body may tie into the case I'm working on."
Rebecca:"okay you do that. I'm going to head back."
You:"tell Maine I stayed behind."
Rebecca:"sure."
You:"don't take my car."
Rebecca:"I won't."
She walks out of the building leaving you by yourself. You search what was left of his skull but all that was left was skull fragments, broken cybernetics, and gray matter.
You: there's nothing left.
Inland empire: how well are your surgeon skills?
You: what do you mean?
Inland empire: get a knife and cut him open. See if he has any inside him.
You: this is going to be gross.
You take your jacket off and grab a sharp knife that one of the thugs had.
Hand-eye coordination: you make a straight and careful cut from his chest down to his hip.
You cut the sides of your cut and open him up exposing his skeleton and organs.
You: I think I'm going to puke.
Volition: start humming. You can't puke if you hum.
You start to hum a song while looking at the corpse.
Perception: most of his insides are cybernetics.
You: this bastard's more machine than man.
Inland empire: start cutting out the cyberware and see if any come from arasaka.
You try to cut the bone but the knife wouldn't cut.
Physical instrument: why are you cutting? Try using your hand to break the bones.
