Summary
A gang safehouse is left without its usual inhabitants... and some runners were contacted with an opportunity to lift some supplies/contraband before authorities arrive to investigate.
Background
An as yet unidentified entity exterminated the residents of a gang's safehouse in redmond, and one Kevin Crimes contacts Shadowhaven to hire some runners to loot the place before authorities pick the carcass clean...
The Meet
Kevin Crimes did not meet the prospective hires beforehand, simply leaving a the 'tip' of the location vulnerable and requesting any acquired loot be passed through him at a designated location following the acquisitions. Gando and Mokumokuren meet onsite.
The Plan
The plan was simple; the two runners approach the site, scope it out and clear resistance before absconding with the valuables they can before more scavengers or authorities show up.
The Run
Gando managed to race his bike to arrive well ahead of Mokumokuren who was relying on his maneuvering autosoft for his drone transport. Mokumokuren's matrix perception quickly picks up 2 personas and 3 devices linked to each, as Gando's in person reconnoiter also discovered 2 gangers talking amongst themselves about breaking into the site. Feeling mischievous, the decker formatted their smartguns before giving Gando the go-ahead to engage as he rebooted the smartguns. Gando gave them the option to run, but the pair decided to draw arms to shoot... only to realize what the sneaky decker had done. Just as they realized this, a rapid forked dataspike bricked both commlinks... just in time for Gando's knee to smash into one of the Cutter grunts nose, sending him sprawling back unconscious. After a bit of back and forth without much headway versus the remaining Cutter, the first got up as the BetaKami speedballs the thugs took kicked in, providing just enough *oomph* to get him back in the fight. Mokumokuren provides calibrations and other diagnostics to help shore up Gando's defenses to endure the pair until he finally got the upperhand, with one ganger taking out his buddy with a concussion grenade, and noticing Gando was unscathed calls it quits and bails; Gando allows this and once the Cutter was sufficiently gone Mokumokuren landed his drone and stuffed the unconscious Cutter into a trashcan before going into the building with Gando to finish the job.
Aftermath
The pair found a relatively nice haul of drugs, BTLs and similar paraphernalia inside. They also found some strange graffiti that Mokumokuren couldn't identify... and couldn't locate any meaning of on the matrix either; the graffiti was at other places but the only commonality was every location involved disappearing proprietors and drone refurbishing. Strange but not directly related to the job... so the pair take the loot to Kevin Crimes to complete the job while the enterprising decker begins making inquiries on the Matrix regarding the mystery marks.

This was practically a milk run for me, but most of the heavy lifting was in meatspace in this particular scenario. Gando seemed to do just fine for his part. Dunno what was up with the weird graffiti and the murderhobo though.
