Conversation 664: BOARDWALK / REPORTING TO KIM

If Kim wasn't with you when you first discovered the body then you're going to have to tell him about it. (Jumps here from Kim's main; then jumps back).

How to use this page:

They also link to other entries, sometimes automatically and sometimes through player action. This page is best used to search for a specific word or phrase, as following the links in this format can be difficult. For an experience that better accommodates the branching structure of these conversations, see the corresponding interactive page.

Column definitions:
  • ID: a numerical index for the entry within this conversation.
  • Character: the character speaking or acting.
  • Dialogue: prose containing spoken dialogue and other description.
  • Conditions: logical checks governing this entry appearing or occurring.
  • Links: entries that might follow this one, depending on conditions and player choice. Most links are internal to this conversation, external links to other conversations are marked with the format (conversation ID, entry ID).

3 Kim Kitsuragi "If we take the case then we have to identify the man and take care of the corpse. I can take the body to the morgue on my own or we can ask for the help of the Hardie boys."

12 Kim Kitsuragi The lieutenant nods to himself, thinking. "From where I stand I can see two options. We either take the case or report back to the station and leave it for our colleagues to handle."

13 Kim Kitsuragi "Great, we should call the library -- maybe it can provide us with a lead. That is, if we decide to take the case."
  • 14
14 Kim Kitsuragi "Taking the case would mean that we need to identify the man and take care of the corpse. I can take the body to the morgue on my own or we could ask for the help of the Hardie boys."

15 Kim Kitsuragi "But if all of this seems too much of a hassle, then there's also the option of reporting back to the station and leaving the case for our colleagues to solve."

16 Kim Kitsuragi "Field autopsy isn't necessary if the cause of death doesn't appear to be criminal -- and this looks like a simple accident to me."
  • 18
17 You "Hold on -- what about field autopsy?" Variable["TASK.perform_field_autopsy"] == true
  • 16
18 Kim Kitsuragi "I'd say we should just write down 'head trauma' in the autopsy report and leave it at that. It would save us at least two hours of unnecessary work."

20 You "You're right, I don't see anything criminal here. Let's leave it at that."

21 Kim Kitsuragi "Maybe, but we don't really have that much time or resources to spare. Still, if you want to go ahead -- be my guest."
