The Curse of Rata Mall - Secret Lab

You land on a mattress in a secret lab. Its brightly lit.
On the mattress are some clothes, a monitor - the ones you threw down.
There is a computer laptop here - welded to the desk.
Theres is a machine on the south wall, labelled Time Machine - But its not functioning.
There are 4 cloning vats, one of which is smashed, with water leading to the laundry chute.
There is a Portal system in the North East, and its also not operating.
There is a generator hooked to the cloning vats.

ON the floor, next to the secret entrance (not the chute that you travelled down) is a dead body - burned. It's holding a crispy wok, and very crispy stick.

VIEW CAFE CAMERAS

[ambic]

SIr Leo seems to be throwing clothes down the chute.

[ambic]

You can see Pooky (Casey), Carla (Ariel) and Jia (Captain Meme) together.

Ariel walks into the Walk in Freezer, going out of sight of the camera.

[Talitha]

VIEW BASEMENT CAMERAS

[ambic]

You see Johannes and Xavier working on the generators. The laptop seems to indicate that you can message them.

[ambic]

You hear Green Crayons yelling "IM too Fat"

[Talitha]

Oh poor GC.

VIEW BATHROOM CAMERAS

[ambic]

You can see grafitti that says "Lets talk" spray painted in green paint. You can only see the corridors of the bathroom themselves. Its quiet. No ones there.

[ambic]

You hear GC swearing down the chute

[Talitha]

VIEW FASHION STORE CAMERAS

[ambic]

You see GC trying to fit in the chute, and then giving up and reading his books.

[Talitha]

Phew, that gives me (and you!) a little breathing space.

I assume the body is poor old Terry.

inspect body for clues of identity or anything left that could be useful

[Talitha]

Did I mention I love this game? You're a flippin genius.

[ambic]

THe body is that of battle mage. Its been singed severely. His wok is recoverable, nothing else is. His stick is pretty useless, but you could take that as evidence if you wanted.

[Talitha]

inspect the switch and the secret entrance

[ambic]

The entrance appears to be cold. It must lead to a freezer.
The switch causes an app to load on the PC.

Change Door PIN
Enter a new pin to continue.

[Talitha]

I enter a new PIN

PMed to you just in case

[ambic]

The pin has been changed. Are you taking the burnt Wok (visible to everyone) or the Burnt Stick (Also visible)?

Im glad you are enjoying the game.

You happen to glance at the laptop and see its still showing Sir Leo. He's piled his books up as though he was going to burn them. He has no matches though. The realisation seems to upset him.

[Talitha]

Oh dear, life's not fair.

Um, let me think about what to take. Can I open the secret door now?

[ambic]

You try the door. You cant open it from this side. You have to exit back through the Laundry Chute. It is an easy climb.

[Talitha]

OK good to know. Would it be possible to climb up there with the small generator?
