The Archives
There are two ways to get into the Archives: an easy way and a hard way. The easy way will save you some time.
Go to Captain Lea's office and give her your report. Before you leave, she asks you to get her a cup of Koil. Access your Sneak and Use the Sleeping Drug on the cup of Koil you purchased earlier. Give the tainted cup to her by Using it. You watch as the drug takes effect instantly and Captain Lea face-plants on the desk.
Pilfer one of the cabinets for a Koopy Sandwich. The captain's desk drawer holds twenty Seteks and Captain Lea's Police Badge. Bid her adieu and prepare to access the Archives. Proceed now to Level 3 and the Archive Room. You find yourself in the Archive antechamber. If you got to this point the easy way, the door on the right will be locked and a Mecaguard will man it. Go to the card reader to the left of the door and Use Captain Lea's Police Badge to enter the Archive Room itself.
Approach the terminal in the middle of the room and press Action to take a seat. You will have four dossiers available to you.
Lunch with Telis
Leave Security HQ and call your Slider for the trip to lunch with Telis.
Before going inside, however, walk north from the front door and turn the corner to meet a beggar. Give him a small sum and he gives you a message. When you find a Life Potion, bring it to this poor wretch.
As you enter the restaurant, notice the Rings waiting by the stairs. Handle this conversation any way you like; there's not much to be gleaned from it. Just as you are about to tell Telis the weird story of your soul transfer, you get a call summoning you to a holdup at a supermarket at 816 Zodir Street. There are reportedly eight armed robbers and possible hostages. Duty calls.
As you turn to go, Telis gives you her Talisman for protection. Take it and call your Slider to go to the market.
Supermarket Holdup
Enter the supermarket. As you cross the second door, you witness an armed, masked man beating a hostage. Be ready to enter Shooting Mode as the scene ends.
Trudge north toward the other side of the store. Near the corner, you'll contend with three or four robbers. Turn right at the far northwestern end of the room and then right again to face south. Pick off the two gunners sniping from behind the burning yellow boxes ahead. Approach the boxes and turn left.
Advance slowly as a robber bursts through the boxes on the right. Go through the hole made by this ambush and turn west. Note the Small Medikit to the west. Continue south to the end of the store. Look north from the Large Medikit and take the first right. As you walk carefully east, two more robbers burst into your range.
Turn north carefully. Note the Medium Medikit to your left. Move into the open area to the north and position yourself in the northeast corner, facing west. Switch to the Decagun if you have it and inch west until another robber pops up from behind some boxes. Kill him quickly to avoid his shower of rapid fire. When this final enemy expires, the surviving hostage informs you of another robber through the door in the northeast corner.
Go downstairs where a man attacks you. Hand-to-hand combat ensues. When you've beaten him down, search the room for a Mana Potion.
The Morgue
Enter the Morgue and approach the receptionist/nurse. A vision assaults you as you enter. Kay'l asks to see Meditech Yudin, the coroner listed in his computer files, and the receptionist directs him to the crematorium through the left-hand door. Next to the roaring oven, you find Meditech Yudin. Questioning reveals some grisly details. Yudin invites you to view the most recent body.
You may now return to the lobby and access the right-hand door. Enter the first door on the right. Inspect the male body by the door. Pick up the Surgical Instrument resting near his shoulder. Check out the female body; it's Maya, the most recent victim mentioned in Kay'l's report. She is also the one you saw in the vision as you entered. Press Action as you stand next to Maya to inspect her body.
Use the Surgical Tool on Maya. Pick up what you find by pressing Action. You see something strange under Maya's fingernails. You'll need to find somewhere to analyze this strange sample. Once it's analyzed, you can deposit it.
Swipe the Large and Small Medikits on the shelves and return to the hallway. Enter the next door on the right. Approach the computer terminal attached to the "meat lockers." Find Den's body on the menu and summon it by selecting its number. When Den is delivered for inspection, approach him and press Action. Den's body is an unholy mess. His damaged Sneak sits beside him. Pocket the Sneak for later analysis.
As you leave Den, walking toward the terminal at the end of the room, you see another vision. Use the Corpse Sample on the analyzer. Return to the hall. There's a set of Rings here. Return to Security HQ.
Go to Tarek's office. When you engage him in conversation, Kay'l gives him Den's Sneak and asks him where he could get it fixed. Tarek recommends a man named Fu-An who keeps a shop somewhere in Qalisar.
Arresting Loeta'r
There's one last bit of business to take care of before venturing into Qalisar. Take your Slider to the bar in Zone 42 to arrest the counterfeit Sneak runner Loeta'r.
Enter the bar, but be ready for a fight. Your conversation with Loeta'r, the bartender, quickly dissolves into a gunfight. Clear the room and head into the bathroom to finish off Loeta'r's last flunky. Go into the stall he came out of to swipe his 1000 Seteks, ten Magic Rings, and Octagun ammo.
Entering Qalisar
Ride your Slider to Access to Qalisar. The door opens as you approach.
