9-417: Pristine, Downport Administration

The Tech

The tech says, “wait…”

She changes the camera image to show a corridor with a door at the end.  

After a short wait the door opens and a man steps through, he’s wearing Mining Bureau cold weather gear with the hood up and closed over most of his face and what looks like a pair of light-weight night-vision goggles.  Oliver recognises the stocky form though. 

As he comes through the door he seems to be stuffing a small box and a PDA into a pocket.  He is wearing a large backpack.  He walks down the corridor, appears to note the camera and quickly walks out of frame.

The tech says, “the protocol is entrances and exits; that’s both sides of a door.”

Departure Manifest

After this length of time Oliver can probably get a list of actual destinations; all those pesky customs checks are there for exactly this sort of reason.

Halcyon says he’ll hunt up a list, but he’ll avoid the Security Chief and try someone who’s not likely to tell him that providing such a list is not his responsibility. He leaves the room.
