Poll Can r/Splintercell successfully navigate the Tbilisi Police Precinct (Part 3).
You watch as the figure draws nearer, opting to remain hidden and feeling an increasing weight in your legs. He stops, curtly, after passing you, and swivels his body to face his prisoner.
'...yes?', comes the creaky and agitated voice from the abyss.
'Checking that you are alright', answers the officer with a reluctant tone. 'Mandatory'.
'I'd feel a lot better if you hadn't arrested me. I did nothing wrong'. His voice is angry and bitter.
'Drunk and disorderly, and your attitude hasn't changed much since you got here, either'.
'So, that's it? I pay you money to avoid a beating, and you throw me in here anyway? What community are you protecting, exactly?'
'Quiet!', the officer snaps back as he twists back towards the office. 'As far as I'm concerned, you're lucky it's my night down here - I'm one of the nice ones'.
'Pfft', comes the swift response, 'Nice in which way? That you don't threaten me?'
The officer does not break his stride, disappearing back up the small staircase. From below, the metal cell door clangs fiercely, and cold fingers appear around the bars once more.
'And what about the other two from earlier? I saw you wheel them in. What happened to them? Did they also dare to have a drink in public?'
No response comes, as the door at the end of the hall swings, clicks and closes behind the officer. The fingers release the bars yet again, and mutter to themselves frustratedly as they retreat back into the unknown.
Dropping down to the ground, you feel an immediate relief in your legs, and decide that Blaustein and Madison must still be nearby if they were only brought here earlier today.
You continue up the small staircase, pausing briefly to examine the office through the window. Inside, are a few shelving units with boxes upon boxes of paper documents stacked atop them. In the far corner, sits a lone desk with a computer. The officer now sits at it, distracted and clicking away.
What do you do?
