Memory Market
With precise and soundless movements, you approach Lena as she examines the rig. Timing your actions perfectly, you extract the memory shard from her pocket and retreat into the safety of the shadows.You notice a loose wire protruding from the memory rig's casing. With deliberate movements, you disconnect it, triggering a cascade of sparks and a faint sizzle, prompting Lena to whirl around in alarm as the acrid scent of scorched electronics fills the air.You maintain your cover, watching Lena intently as she slips toward the door. Once she exits, you follow her cautiously, resolved to uncover the purpose behind her theft of the memory shard.Leaving the shadows behind, you confront Lena with a calm yet commanding voice. "Lena. Everyone thought you were gone for good. Care to fill me in on why you’re standing here now?" Your hand hovers near the hidden taser, ready to act if necessary.
