Day 30: Patient Library (Fourth Shift)

While he waited for his bulletin board correspondant, Farfarello perused the library's offerings once more. There was no sign of any of the books he'd requested in the suggestion box but he wasn't very suprised that this was the case--even if, by some chance, the Head Doctor actually intended to grant any of the reasonable requests it still would probably take more than a day for anything to happen. The wheels turned slowly, in institutions, and there was no reason for a fake institution to be any speedier than a real one.

For lack of anything better, Farfarello pulled down the Histories volume of The Complete Works of William Shakespeare. A little Richard III would keep him diverted for a short while, anyway.

Gin had figured that much. If not just the Doctor, but also his rival had ways to send messages over the same system, surely others could too. The other part, causing the radios to find the right spot and turn on at the right moment, apparently would be more difficult. If they had to, they could just inform the patients ahead of time to have them on and focused on the right place to receive the message, couldn't they?

"Ara..." he sighed, though he kept his smile on. "Sounds complicated. Y'up to th' task? If y'let me know what kinda things y'need, I'll see that y'get 'em."

"It could be more or less complicated depending on how simple the device itself is to work. I've already taken a bit of a look at mine." Leon shrugged. He was sure he could figure out any kind of mechanical device given the time and equipment.

"I've got a few tools. They might do the job. Having some extra thin electrical wire might help. Maybe parts of radios that others aren't using or are willing to sacrifice. I won't know too much about what else I'll need until I actually start tinkering with it."
