"This is where they 'salvaged emotions' of those they captured. We rescued Meadows in this very room. We need to give Johann and that Skynavian mare their emotions back."

Silver looks around for a couple vials of changeling honey.

[1d2 = 1]
>>125104
"I see"

>>125101
Iron can't but smile with the keyring to the mouth as he stares at the safe.
"I will beat you, metal box!" he proclaims before looking at the key then back at the safe, wondering how this works.

>>125106
It's hard to say. There seems to be a key hole in the front, maybe?

This office is strangely nice and well lit for this floor

>>125104
There is one tube, remaining on the table

>>125107
"Hm..." Iron ponder as he inspects one random key before trying it on the hole.

>>125107
Assuming Silver still has one in his bags, this is just what the doctor ordered. He collects it and leaves, looking in Mala's room to see what he's doing.

>>125109
Mala has grabbed a bag, and has packed up a blanket, some medicine, some kind of personal effect, like a locket, and has closed one of the cabinet doors.

He looks back to Silver

>>125108
There are six keys

>>125110
Silver steps backwards slightly in embarassment.

"Oh! Uh...collecting your possessions? I am sorry. Take whatever time you need, Mala."

>>125110
Iron tries the first key from the keyring.

[1d6 = 1]
>>125111
"Yes..."
He looks up at Silver
"Can I stay with you?"

>>125112
It does not work

>>125113
Silver smiles at him.

"Of course you can, Mala."

>>125115
He opens his mouth in joy, and rushes forward in what seems to be a hug

>>125116
Silver braces himself for impact, but opens his forelegs to accept it.

>>125114
Iron looks at the key, seeing the key for a bit before shrugging and trying the second one.

[1d5 = 2]
>>125117
The fluffy gnoll hugs him. He has a sort of dog-like odor to him. But he seems happy, very happy

>>125118
This one also does not succeed

>>125120
Iron squints his eyes at the safe being so stubborn before huffing and trying the third key.

>>125119
D'awww. The floofy unicorn hugs Mala back.

[1d4 = 3]
>>125122
The gnoll is hugged, fluffy in some areas and course haired in most others. He doesn't seem to have been injured or burned in any of the battles, though he has some blood on him

>>125121
This one almost seems to work.... but it doesn't

>>125124
Iron grits his teeth as he almost tears through the keyhole and tries the fourth key.
"...you better work, fourth metal shape..."

>>125123
Silver pets the gnoll on the top of his head, right between the ears.

"We should get back to others, if you are done collecting your possessions."

[1d3 = 1]
>>125126
"Alright..."

He turns his head towards the area where Silver entered the basement. That first room, where they found Khoi Lua

"Should I go see them a last time?"

>>125125
Key number four does not work either

>>125127
"It is your choice. I am not sure what they will say, but I am right behind you."

>>125128
Grinding his teeth in frustration, Iron takes out the fourth key and looks at it intently. "...I will not forget your betrayal, stupid metal thing."
With that, he turns his head to the fifth key. "You better open it or you will be next," he promises with venomous tone.
Thus, he tries the fifth key.

>>125129
He looks over there, and starts to frown
"Nothing nice, I am sure. I probably shouldn't..."

[1d2 = 2]
>>125130
The betrayal is noted

>>125131
Silver pats and rubs Mala's back.

"If that is your choice, then I will support it."

>>125130
Click

It works!

Opening the safe, inside are
a number of papers that seem to be legal contracts,
A deed
Bond papers
A paper note with some numbers written on it
An envelope with some photographs in it
a vial of what looks like changeling honey,
gemstones
a small marble idol
more than one stack of Equestrian bank notes
some foreign currency
a bracelet
and a pink potion

>>125133
He wags his tail, and moves as Silver pats him

"No point in saying goodbye..."

>>125134
Iron's eyes shimmer in surprise at all the potential money in the safe, quickly picking the gemstones, marble idol, the Equestrian Bank Notes and the bracelet in a greedy rush of energy and placing them on the desk not so far from him.
After that, he decides to check the deed out of curiosity.

>>125134
Silver pets Mala some more, and then motions for him to join.

"Alright. The others need us."

>>125135
Looks like a house on the waterfront on the north shore of the bay

>>125136
"Okay... but... I... can I ask you another thing?"

>>125137
Iron shifts it aside to instead check on these Bond papers he's looking at.

>>125137
"Of course, Mala."

>>125138
Corporate bond papers and New Mareland national war bond papers. Payable to bearer.

>>125139
"Well, there's"
He looks down, and starts to play with his paws, pressing them one against the other. He does not make eye contact with Silver
"There are the bodies of griffins in the boiler room. And in the closet upstairs. And on the floor upstairs in the central atrium. And in the hallway in the other building. And up in the hallway... There are many of them. So many of them. If I could just... drag one away and hide it from the police for thirty minutes..."

>>125140
Scratching his head at the things, he sets them ontop of the deed before looking at the paper with the numbers.

>>125141
"Oh..." He thinks for a moment, and looks around to see if anyone is watching.

>>125143
Undertoe is outside, but not in the room

>>125142
Small, ripped paper

15 32 63 07 85 19

>>125144
Scratching his head even further, he turns over to the famed photographs.

>>125144
Silver keeps his voice low at a whisper.

"Three conditions: they have to be dead, you can not get found out, and you promise to make this your last of this particular meal."

>>125145
There is one free floating black and white photograph. A griffin, female, with a hat topped with a flower carries an umbrella.

But the envelope shows something different. A Pony shakes hooves with a different pony, both in suits. Two cars meet, showing more ponies. Another photographs shows a pink mare doing something with a stallion. Another one shows the same pink mare and the same stallion.... well, it shows them doing things together

>>125146
He starts to light up, and smile
"What do you mean by 'last of this particular meal'?"

>>125147
He thinks for a second, then waves it off.

"Nevermind. Just make sure they're dead, and that you do not get caught."

>>125148
"Sure thing!"
Unless Silver stops him, he bounds on out of there

>>125147
Iron squints at the nasty, humming softly.
"I wonder why would a safe carry these kind of paintings," he muses before placing them on the other info pieces before looking intently at the changeling honey with a pensive expression.
"...what is that?" he wonders out loud as he pokes the vial.

>>125150
A pink jelly

>>125151
Blinking softly, he places it inbetween the valuables and the info, unsure of what is its use before turning towards the pink potion instead.

>>125149
Silver just shakes his head, collects Undertoe, and heads back to rejoin the group.
