Jamison looked at the corpse photos, and shuddered slightly. He had seen several zombified bodies, but he still didn't like them. " Nice, look like extras from Romero film."

"Looks like one Psychotrope's interrogation victims.." Quinn commented. he shuddered at the thought of being in the monsters lab...if it could be called that.

"But, how could nano-tech do this?" Power Armour asks.
"No way to know unless we ask." Troubleshooter answers.
"And golly gee, it's going to be super hard to find out if it's the same silly billies causing this." SPM added. "What in heavens would we need to do?"

"Monitor where the bodies get dropped and follow them back to there base of ops..?" Quinn offered.

"But, heavens, we know the base." Said SPM. "They're working out of Regault's own building!"
"So, we track them, there?" Power Armour asks.

" I guess I'm going to get to stretch my wings soon." Jamison rolled his shoulders as he said it.I should be able to do some high level surveillance without getting noticed. Too bad we couldn't have talked that guy we brought in to question into helping or joining, he already had connections to them and could have got us in the front door."

"Windchill." troubleshooter says. "You've been quiet. Anything to add?"

Miranda shakes her head. "I can't think of much, though more surveillance would be a good idea."

"Well, even one body dump from the Regault property will be enough to force a search warrant." Troubleshooter says. "So, we'll need some people to case their facilities. We'll also need to track down these volunteers like Sock-Puppet Man has seen. See if they even make it out alive. Who wants what?" He asks, looking around.

Miranda nods as she says, "I can help with tracking down volunteers. Though it occurs to me we should be careful about who we sent to the Regault property. Since myself, Tharsis and Sock Puppet Man have already been there, they're sure to be suspicious if we show up again, snooping around."

"I can visit in the guise of Mr.Smith see what the project looks like." the magician nodded.

"I don't think they'll let us know about the project." Troubleshooter says. "Dorsette knows it isn't near enough to completion, and the facility itself mustn't know about, or they would have trumpetted it as a major advancement. Good reputation and everything."
"But!" Power Armour says. "How will we know they made the Zombie corpses? How do we know it isn't legitimate?"
"Because." Karson said, coming in the door as NPCs are wont to do when drama is needed. "We found traces of nanotechnological tampering in all the zombie corpses." He comes in and sits down. "So, how are you going to find the ones responsible, in a way that will stand up in court?"

" Sounds like we're going to have to catch them in thact dumping the next corpse." Jamison said with a sigh. " Is there a pattern to where corpses have been found so far?"

"Not so much." Says Karson. After a minute, he calls up a map on a projector. "We know the corpses often show up around where homeless are known to congregate. That's how we've been so lucky in finding them." The map shows the red dots of the zombie corpses indeed grouping in areas like the Brisby Flats, etc. "And, here's Regault." He says, a light popping up on the map, not really well-placed in the middle or off to a specific area.
Troubleshooter looks at the map. "Interesting." He says, looking at the map. "Can you show the time version?"
Karson hit a button, and the dots appeared, mostly in one area, then trickling as it started in another area then trickling before starting in a third, etc. "This is by week." Karson says.
"Wait." Power Armour says. "Why aren't they spreading out the dumps? Or stopping when they start somewhere else? Wouldn't that make sense?"
"It would make sense to do that. In fact, that's usually how it's done. When a dump spot is comprimised, you don't go back." Trouble Shooter says. His lips started to purse. "What if they don't leave dead?"
"Buh?" PA asked, looking.
"Golly, gee! It would be perfect, wouldn't it?" Says SPM. "Can't follow a corpse if it's taking the bus!"
"They're target zones." TS said.
"Target areas?" Karson said, spinning to look at the map, the dots replaying their appearance secquence over and over again. "Then Regault is picking them up in different neighbourhoods, and then letting them leave... I guess we know where to target our attention, then." He points to a couple of dots congregating at the end of the time cycle, in a fourth area, again in the Brisby Flats.

"Great, my rent better not increase.." he grinned.
