Medical Mystery

Given by: Dr Richards [Camp Forlorn Hope] (M22:1)

The doctor #1 will tell you that someone steals his medical supplies. Tell him that you'll search for the culprit. You can also ask him what is missing [Medicine 50] or what the symptoms are after using the Hydra. You'll find Private Stone (M22:5) #2 trying to sneak his way out near one of the tents. Ask him about the missing supplies.

• [Medicine 50] notice the symptoms
• sneak behind him and notice the Empty hydra syringe
• wait till around 2AM and catch him while he is stealing the supplies

To complete this task you have to decide about Private's fate:

• turn Stone in, return to the doctor and tell him about the thief
• tell Stone to turn himself in; [Speech 60] it will be better for him
• say you'll let him go if he can make "worth your while" - take or refuse the bribe and then turn him in or let him escape

After you return to Richards (M22:1):

• turn Stone in
• tell him that you've found nothing
