I send them a list. It isn't the whole list, to get everything at once and from the same place would almost certainly arouse suspicion, after all, I know such things are well tracked.
In fact, i reason, it will be better if I send my requests to a wide variety of businesses, and all under false identities, but that will require time and money and more false identities and shell corporations then I have at the moment. I'll have to work on that. Not for the first time I note that this would be substantially simpler with access to a Decker or a deck and the skill to use it. I compile my list further, using only my commlink. The truly urksom factor is that having someone arrange that sort of business means that they know about it, which in turn makes then a liability, someone who can hold their knowledge over me.
The gears remind me that such liabilities can be removed in a simaler fashion as sub-human porn 'tycoon' the other night. I might have had a problem with it then, killing someone, in fact it braught on a near panik attack, but I need to do certain things in order to survive and using and killing a good decker might end up being part of this.
The list complete I take a moment to divide it between a few places of business so that none know the extent of my purchases.
-Thirty armored jackets
-Thirty comm-links
-Ammunition for the Rifles stolen from last nights mercs
-Flash Grenades
-sub-vocal mics for all the girls
-A pair of mad scanners
The final items are to identify any weapon coming within range, to be placed at the entrances to my new club, the rest was to ensure that anyone who did try to bring a weapon would regret it. Of course the rifles from the beaten mercs are the real prize, having them moved to the club is an important step.
Once the order is placed I will take my food and call a cab to take me to the edge of Chinatown, with a brief message to Sian containing only a location.
