2 Glen Starting from the right: Boot size 44. Blond man in his thirties. Overbearingly masculine.
  • 8
3 Theo Sitting on his right: standard working boots, size 45 or 46. Eldest in the room, probably mid-fifties. Smoker, quiet.
  • 18
4 Alain Across, at the other table: hobnailed working boots, size 43. Gang tattoos. Mesque or Saramirizian. In his late thirties/early forties.
  • 13
5 Titus Hardie And then -- standard working boot, steel reinforced toes, size 46. The big dick. Wide at the shoulders and lean at the hips. Rugby cap, fingerless gloves, and numerous scars, a little under forty.
  • 12
6 Eugene In the far corner: standard working boot, steel reinforced toes, size 44. Forty-something, non-alcoholic beverage in hand. (You squint.) Is that a *plectrum*?
  • 21
  • 22
7 Shanky Size 41, with the light step. Not a child after all -- an older man with a rat-face; mean watery eyes and two front teeth missing.
  • 10
8 Composure Wants the world to know he's a macho-macho man: tobacco-chewing and knuckle cracking. Who else do we have here?
  • 3
9 Pain Threshold A symmetric burn on his neck, resembling the letters *Los Los*. Has he tried to burn it off, leave that life behind?
  • 5
10 Fat Angus In the middle, heaving and wheezing: big guy, boot size 46, deep marks. Probably carried the victim over. He alone is 130 kilos; add the man in armour and you could easily exceed 220.
  • 11
11 Perception (Smell) Awful smell. His feet stink from all the way over there, despite having boots on.
  • 17
12 Perception (Sight) The emblem on his vest says 'Rowing club'. A little patch below it reads: 'T. Hardie, Captain'.
  • 6
13 Encyclopedia He spent his youth in Villalobos, a housing project in the Jamrock Quarter. There were incarcerations. Hard to say what else -- the ink is fading.

  • 7
23 Eugene On his neck. Forget it. It's not important.
  • 19
24 Visual Calculus Exactly. You've stood there for about four seconds, not saying anything. Hit them with questions -- where's the eighth Hardie?

33 Fat Angus "Yeah." The fat guy in the middle lets out a little chuckle. "You're not even being fucked, Dennis."
  • 37
34 Eugene "Relax, Dennis, no one is fucking you yet," says the forty-something man from the corner, with a plectrum hanging from his neck.
  • 48
35 Titus Hardie "No-no-no," Titus points at himself, "Eyes here! You got business with my boys, you got business with me."
  • 38
36 Shanky "Yeah, you fuck with the Hardie boys, you fuck with Titus Hardie!" shouts the scrawny rat-faced man, two teeth missing in the front.
  • 43
37 Titus Hardie "Easy, fellas, we got company," Titus puts an end to it. "Let's see what brings the cop around."
  • 51

57 Theo As you can see he doesn't speak a lot... and you almost missed him among the others.

98 You One of them is absent. The Odd Sole?
  • 99
99 Visual Calculus Exactly, the missing lady driver who was running the drug trade. Does it mean that the Hardie boys are involved in the drug trade as well?
  • 101
  • 100
  • 102
  • 103
100 You The entire Union might be involved. Maybe even all of Martinaise... (Look around suspiciously.)
  • 104
101 You These bandits? Definitely.
  • 104
102 You Not necessarily. The lady driver could have kept the drug trade secret.
  • 104
103 You This would fit what Joyce told us, but I don't want to make any assumptions.
  • 104
104 Visual Calculus Maybe. But hey, you've stood there for about four seconds, not saying anything. Now is a good time to hit them with questions -- where's the eighth Hardie?
  • 25
105 Glen "Yeah, Dennis, calm down," a blond man in his thirties agrees. "No one's fucking you, you stupid fuck."
  • 106
106 Alain "Let Dennis enjoy his fucking, man. We don't mind." You notice gang tattoos; the man must be either Mesque or Saramirizian.

  • 115
115 Titus Hardie "What are you talkin' about, madman? There's no eighth Hardie boy. There's seven of us and we're all here." He sizes you up.
  • 116
116 Titus Hardie "Or what -- *you* want to be the eighth Hardie boy? We ain't hiring!" He shakes his head.
  • 117

130 Kim Kitsuragi "So let me get this straight... there *is* an eighth Hardie boy, it's a *she* and you don't like us talking about her?"

135 Titus Hardie "You're not cops here. Don't go digging around, if you don't want a bullet in the back of your head. I'm watching you."
  • 136
136 Kim Kitsuragi "Good -- we're all watching each other." The lieutenant adjusts his spectacles. "Officer, your question?"
  • 137
