Kendall find himself in his apartment, where there are no errant signals, except for neighbours pilfering other neighbours' wireless LAN.
There have been no signs of a search.

Kendall is surprised that no one searched his house. The lack of listening devices didnt surprise him, but it never hurt to be too careful. He checks his messages and begins to plan his jobs for the next day. He decides to leave the investigation behind for now and get back to work.

Kendall had a number of messages from the phone distributor requesting him for jobs - easily enough to keep him busy for a few days. One, even, was in one of the richer neighbourhoods in town.

After Kendall rights down a schedule for the next days activities, he sits back in his chair and begins to think over the days activities. 'Well Power Armor and his group had no idea what I was talking about, or what I was looking for. They did try and arrest me though. I love how they made up charges based on the questions I asked. Apparently its now illegal to ask question. Tomorrow is a normal work day. I'll keep an eye out and if I'm clear I'll go see Dorsett the following day'

The next day!
His alarm beeps and he goes to work!
Mostly a lot of hook-up kind of calls. Easy stuff, but time consuming. If the police were following him, they never showed it.

Kendall puts the previous days events out of his mind as he dives into his daily work. He is glad to be working on a job that he enjoys rather than trying to investigate something with bad intel.

It did seem a little strange, the shift like that... Says his inner voice... Someone else must have set him up... Was it the guy in the snappy red and black tights? Or the hacker that had him follow the car to Power Armour?
The jobs were certainly standard fare. Except the one little old lady who couldn't believe that so much information came through a glass wire. "It's not even wire. It's not even hollow." She was insisting. "How do the things flow through it? I'M not eningeer, but even electrons need space to move, right?"

"Maam, nothing physically flows through it. Data signals are broken down and sent as light through the glass fibers."
Kendall finishes up his work shows the lady how to access the internet. As he heads home he calls Dorset's office.

"Wait, wait wait..." She says. "Then... does that make the light in the hall a broken modem? I just don't understand all this new technology..." She says shaking her head.
After all that's done, and ont he way home, the phone rungs. Dorset picks up. "Dorset."

"It's Kendall, schedule my upgrade, and we need to have a conversation."

"In a few days, we'll talk." Dorset says. "In the mean time, take a break, catch up with your day-to-day life. We'll be in touch." And the phone hangs up.

Kendall looks at his phone in disbelief. His anger beggining to rise as he thinks that there was more to Dorsett's story than he let on.
For the next few days Kendall focuses on his work and puts the whole experience out of his mind.

Shortly after Dorsett had hung up, Kendall got another call. The number was CSPD.

Kendall only hesitates a second before answering the call from CSPD.
"This is Kendall."

"Hello, Mr Kendall, this is the CSPD. We're calling you to inform you your computer is being released to you." Says a clerk on the other side. "When will you be available to pick it up?"
