Inquisitor
“She pushed her bloodied hands deep into her jacket pockets. She’d already pulled out the shards of glass and made makeshift bandages from strips of a passing tablecloth, but she needed stitches. Probably a lot of them.
As calmly as she could, Angel walked down the back street to the nearest metro station. One stop later, she got off and swapped to a different line. Another stop, and she repeated the procedure.
Twenty minutes of brisk walking, and she entered a shopping complex kilometers from h...er hotel. News streams she accessed via her implants showed pictures of her on the crime channels.
She bought strong painkillers along with tinted glasses and a tight woolen cap. A quick scan of the establishments, and she found what she was looking for: a medical center. It was dark and dingy inside, and the carpet threadbare. Just the thing.
