Walkthrough: Notice that you've been awarded with a chance to use a journal and you can display it on your screen by pressing the M key #1. You've also received 10 rounds of gold ammunition (you can find out more about this special kind of ammunition from the USEFUL HINTS chapter). Start exploring the base #2 and notice that you can follow the arrows painted on some of the walls.
Make sure to examine a kitchen pot along the way #1 so that you'll have a chance to collect 3 rounds of gold ammunition. Use the stairs to get to an upper level and you'll soon arrive in a marketplace area #2.
I would recommend that you take your time by talking to a man sitting on one of the benches #1. You can comply to his wish and spare two rounds of gold ammunition for his son (press the action key). Check the items being sold in two nearby shops #2 while you're here.
Your next area of interest should be the armory and you must choose a passageway with a gun sign located above it #1. It should only take a few seconds to find the armory #2. Remain here, because you'll receive several important items for free, including a submachine gun with ammunition, a charger for your flashlight (you must hold the F key to choose it from the inventory), a brand new gas mask with filters and several medkits. You can now test your new gun on a nearby shooting range or leave the armory right away.
Return to one of the previous corridors and notice that you can now choose a new passageway #1. Enter a room with a man playing on a guitar and examine the area near his left foot #2 to collect 5 rounds of gold ammunition.
Continue exploring the base. The next room you'll have a chance to visit will contain several pig pens #1. Approach the pens and search the area to the left. Two rounds of gold ammunition can be found on one of the crates #2.
You should consider taking a break and entering a nearby room to talk to the main character's father #1. If you don't want to talk to him you may proceed directly to a train station. Approach a man seen to your right #2 and press the left mouse button to confirm that you want to leave this area by taking a seat on board of a trolley.
