Scar made his way through the halls, knowing for once exactly where he was going. He fiddled with the scalpel between his fingers as he walked at a brisk pace, knowing full well that the tiny knife would hardly do him any good. But it was better than nothing, should he come across anything along his way.

Wild Tiger was good enough to stop and wave his flashlight around the intersecting hallway before he deemed it safe to actually traverse it. Again, he noticed how few people were passing through the hallway. The murmurings of a few patients could be heard, the flicker of lights seen, but enough to warrant the amount of rooms in this block. Or they just all ran out faster than he did. Wow, that didn't make him feel old or anything.

"Kids..." he muttered sorely as he continued to inspect the corridor around them.

Barnaby threw a sideways glance at Kotetsu, but didn't press the issue anymore. It wasn't hard to see that his partner's reluctance to talk didn't completely stem from not wanting to be overheard. To be honest, he wasn't sure whether to feel angry about that or not. On one hand, they needed to be practical about when to set aside a good time and place for it. On the other, he didn't want to deal with any needless stalling, either, especially when he now understood that Kotetsu was perfectly capable of prolonging the inevitable for as long as it suited him.

Regardless, they were in agreement that they needed to look into this "clue", even if Barnaby suspected they were both getting something different out of it. At least Kotetsu had put his maps away, even if the notion of him drawing anything for the man was too ridiculous to even acknowledge.

Allowing Kotetsu to lead them out of the block for now, he hovered his flashlight beam over the map in his hands. "It looks like the medical wing might be on the east side of the first floor," he remarked in an effort to stay on task. As he spoke, they passed through the threshold leading into the next hall.
