140%u201cLike you, they tried to kill me, too. It was five years ago. I won a lot of money one night at the casino and found a black-market surgeon who could remould my face. It cost me everything I%u2019d won but enabled me to remain free and alive. I took up a job as a guard at the casino but heard they were looking for Kyle and the last batch of soldiers coming to enjoy their award.%u201d Keith told them and turned to Kyle. %u201cYou are a legend, Kyle. You probably never knew but amongst the armed forces, you are considered akin to a God. When I heard it was you, I knew, finally, if anyone could break free, it would be you. So, I am with you all the way.%u201d%u201cOkay, we need food, booze, and bedding. We have gold from the casino so it can be purchased,%u201d Kyle said. %u201cWe also need a compass, a more torches, and small cables so we can recharge the torches using the uranium light we already have; oh, yes, and a map of the city. We need a party to explore these sewers and mark out where there are more exit and entry shafts and manholes. I suggest we divide into two parties, a shopping one with escorts, and a smaller one to search down here,%u201d Kyle told them all.They all returned to the manhole using the only light they had. One party left with Plum, and Kyle and Norman stayed to search the sewers.It was several hours later that everyone returned to the camp at the ventilation shaft. They ate the food and divided out sleeping bags and torches. %u201cWe need a second place to hideout if this one is compromised,%u201d Keith suggested.Kyle agreed.%u201cWhat about the brothel where you killed all the leaders and the guards?%u201d Plum said.The Brothel Amongst The Stars
