Hrm. I'm going to guess that going consistently left or consistently right will just bring us to a dead end. Obviously we don't want to go right back.

So, right door down.

Only one option that isn't "go back." Down.

Take the way out, presumably where there will be oxygen.

Gee, we really want to suffocate, I'm sure...

Yes, take the way out. Unless we missed a vital clue in there that was easier than I expected.

Votes registered, Hiryu Aragorn will take the door leading out.

310
The door slides shut behind you. You are in the side-street behind the Plaza de Toros. Your Chronograph beeps at you and you realize that you have to catch the bus. You look over your shoulder as a Guard comes out of the same door, fires a blast in the other direction and runs off. You make your way to the terminal. Add 2 LUCK points and turn to 80.

80
You arrive at the Silverhound terminal with little time to spare. There are many people milling around. A sign flashes above the boarding-gate: ‘BUS FULL.’ You rush towards the Android standing by the door. You show it your Rogue Tracer’s ID; there is a sharp intake of air into its system, it boards the bus and throws off a rather elderly woman. She is very cross and the other passengers stare at you while you take your seat. You sit next to an Excel and try to get some rest, but you find it difficult because there is a large group of natives at the front who keep chattering and screaming at one another while they pass around drink tubes and food cubes. They do not offer you any. Deduct 2 TIME units. Turn to 45.

[spoiler]Image[/spoiler]

45
[spoiler]Image[/spoiler]

You are very tired by the time you land at Roma terminal. You check when the bus is due to leave and set an alarm on your Chronograph. You stagger out of the terminal and the first sign you see is that of a Fast Food and Sleep Unit. It looks very shabby and some dubious characters from the bus are heading for it.

‘That’ll do nicely,’ squeals the gate mechanism when you slip your credit in. Inside you pick up some cubes advertised as Virwat-duck flavour and sit on a broken chair munching the tasteless mush. You look around you: rubbish litters the area and is being kicked about by all sorts of rogues; a couple you recognize are worth a few hundred credits, but you are far too tired. Sitting on one of the sleep units is a woman cleaning a stun gun. She looks familiar and stares at you. Then she lies down and closes up her unit. You do the same. Add 6 STAMINA points.

When you get up, she is just leaving. Do you follow her (turn to 153) or hurry on in your search (turn to 142)?

If we weren't explicitly on a timer I'd suggest following her but since we are let's just ignore her.

Hurrying on in his search received 3 votes, so Hiryu Aragorn will do that.

142
[spoiler]Image[/spoiler]

You walk through a maze of narrow streets until you come to a market. Most people are selling food cubes and among the customers are Felines from Wistas 4. You feel the CodeMatch on your Chronograph activate as an Android passes you, carrying a parcel. You follow carefully. You know that you are running out of time. Deduct 2 TIME units. Do you approach the Android (turn to 198), or do you prefer not to trust it and carry on alone (turn to 221)?

"You know you're running out of time. Do you pursue the apparent clue or wander aimlessly?"

Approach the android.

We already had a turned android encounter, so this one is presumably straight. Approach.

Votes registered, Hiryu Aragorn will approach the Android.

198
You catch up and press CodeMatch. The Android does not respond, but walks on. You follow. It stops at a service bay and plugs in some lubricant. You stand near and it begins to talk without looking at you. It tells you that it is suspected and that you will have to act quickly to get any information. It tells you of two options. There is a Grom sub-station near by that is sure to have records; or you could travel to the salt-mines where the President was brought down, to see if you can discover any evidence there. Will you go to the sub-station (turn to 257) or the salt-mines (turn to 108)?

Investigating a crime scene may give us more useful clues. Salt mines.
