Contact Mahira Khan

[saveournpcs]

The easiest way of contacting the Super is to call the police station and somehow make them think that the caller is legit and important enough to pass the call on to Mahira. Good friends and family will have her private number.

People who have "official" reasons to contact her physically at the police station - journalists, other constables, and so on - can easily find her in her office.

lmao both? Both is good ;)

Alright. I'm going to see if the Super is in. Give me a second.

[Walter can hear him walk away, and then some voices in the background. A moment later, a "hold the line" music plays, and then a minute later Mahira Khan picks up.]

Mr Weekes?

;)

[Walter is very Not Amused at being put on hold, but then Khan does pick up, which sets him at ease... somewhat.]

I don't suppose whoever passed you the phone explained why I called, or at least repeated what I said?

[He sounds like he's talking light about it, but that's to belie his stress on the matter.]

I can give you a current location on the man we last met to talk about.

[saveournpcs]

[She pauses for a moment, and then her voice is tense.]

The mystery bomb man?

[iamnotgod]

Yes.

All he's holding right now is a cat, but we are in a building full of people.

At the museum reopening, to be precise.

[Which also brings up the question of why does he still have the cat in here?]

[saveournpcs]

Hold the line please, I'm going to send however many I can over there.

[And there's more hold music for a minute or two. Then:] ....A cat?

Should it be obvious what breed the cat is?

[iamnotgod]

That will not be a problem.

[Walter's only a little surprised at being put on hold before she asks that follow-up question.]

Yes, a very fluffy grey one.

If it's shedding, he'll be causing a very different set of problems.

No.

[saveournpcs]

...Well, it should at least make him easier to recognize.

[...A cat. This is getting increasingly ridiculous, and if they don't find the guy she's definitely going to review security footage to see if Walter made fun of her... but for now she just hopes her men and women can get the guy.]

All right. I'll tell my constables about the cat. They should be there in a few.

Has he done anything but wandered around yet?

[iamnotgod]

[If the man doesn't even appear on the footage, Walter will be disappointed and angry but will understand.]

I'm as confused as to why he has it - let alone in here - as you are, Superintendent.

And no, though he does appear to be talking to people.

[Other Numbered, to be precise. Which Walter is also stressing out about.]

[saveournpcs]

I see.

Well, I will give you the same order that I would give anyone in your situation: Don't approach him. If he leaves, don't attempt to stop him. Do not take any action that might put you in harm's way. Police will be over there momentarily.

[iamnotgod]

[So, no different from what he's been doing, then. Walter can live with that, though he's not entirely content with it, either.]

Understood.

[And then, just to make sure she knows, and for taking this seriously:]

Thank you, Superintendent Khan.

[saveournpcs]

[There is a tired smirk in her tone when she answers.] It's my duty.

Be safe. [And with that she ends the call.]
