Matrix searching reveals that Maria Reyes had lead a double life, both offline and online as xXMaria_ReyesXx

The Plan

After a 5 hour matrix search, the team reconvences the next day to sleep, regain resources etc.

The Run

The plan for Day 2 is to try and search into the Bookstore, the team decides to go in. Triages sends in a spirit for preliminary scouting to find spirits, a mage, and a strong ward guarding it. All the while, Raum and Triage are butting heads with each other, but not by much. Trades seems unphased and is able to work with the team with seemingly little issue.

The drone, heading inside, mostly just fines more books, books boos books. The Back room is filled with books, and so is the upstairs. Finding a terminal, Trades was able to hack and find out that Venhaus Books only held the book for a short amount of time, and that it was originally found by the proprietor of "The Rat's Talon"

The Rats Talon is a used junk store where scavs can sell their goods to people within the OU. A shadow community check reveals that this place m ay be a location to fence goods or find stolen goods. There have been purported rumors of them working with the Sons of Sauron.

Trades tries to reach out and talk to a decker working the store, and when she finds that the decker calls them a 'little snot', she threatens them to get into cold sim or she'll fry his brain, especially after seeing the decker running Hammer and biofeedback. Raum agreed, saying "Terrible idea. Do it.", and Triage spoke perplexedly, "Are we sure its wise to attack the security before going to a location?". Trades responded "But it would be so satisfying.", yet she backed down saying back down as she says, "Fine, I'll just flip him off in the meat."

After sulking Raum gets in the car with Trades and the trio travel to the ork underground, but are met with a barrier to the entrance and try to find a secondary way in. Trades calls Captain Killdozer.

Player After Action Reports (AARs)

Trades

I can't believe that we found the fan fiction username of a researcher. Usually you don't really consider that professionals will have a personal life, so that was a bit of a surprise. Especially the discovery that they hid some secret knowledge about their thesis in four books.
