Tidoses paced back and forth as she waited in the waiting room, they had just arrived at the hospital and had handed Mirsali over to the doctors and for now it was a matter of waiting.
"I'm sure he'll be fine Tidoses." Garrus reassured her.
"Yeah, never mind the fact that she suffered a shotgun wound." Jenny, who was riding shotgun in the shuttle, said earning a glare from Shepard.
"It's okay Shepard; Jenny is only speaking the truth." Tidoses said.
"If you say so, any idea what was up with the young Krogan?" Tidoses shook her head.
"I have friends in the local police force; they told me that they are still looking to see if the Krogan is a known offender." Tidoses said.
"If that Krogan was young then why wasn't he on Tuchanka? From what I've learned from Drakus young Krogans don't leave Tuchanka until after they're right of passage." Jenny pointed out.
"Good question." Tali said folding her arms. "On the subject of Krogan though I don't trust those Krogan that Mirsali employed."
"What makes you say that?" Garrus asked.
"They openly admitted that they are only loyal to their next paycheck, for all we know they let that Krogan in!" Tali said.
"They didn't hesitate to act when they heard the gunshot." Shepard pointed out.
"I agree with Tali, they could've been covering up for themselves to avoid pissing off a SPECTER." Jenny said.
"Not the way I would've put it but yeah, what she said." Tali said.
"Both are fair points come to think of it." Garrus agreed but Tidoses shook her head.
"They have been loyal to my father for years, if they where that easily persuaded he would've been dead years ago." Tidoses said when a Salarian doctor walked in.
"It was a bit touch and go at first but your father's going to make it." The Salarian doctor said and Tidoses smiled.
"Thank you doctor, when can I see him?" Tidoses asked.
"We don't want anyone seeing him just yet but I'll let you know when you can see him, and don't worry, as per the Turian government's request we've given him a private room with armed guards encase some of his friends tries anything." The doctor said.
"I appreciate that doctor; I assume that you'll let me know when I can see him?" Tidoses asked.
"Of course I will." The doctor said walking off.
"I'll take a team back to Mirsali's mansion to check for evidence of wrong doing by him and his associates, keep us posted." Shepard ordered.
"Of course Commander, I'll be in touch." Tidoses said.
"Tali, Jenny, Garrus, come with me, Joker, send Legion down to meet us at the mansion and tell him to use his holographic projector." Shepard said the last part into his earpiece as they left the hospital.
"You got it Commander, he should be there shortly." Joker said.
"Are you sure that's wise Commander? What if the device malfunctions? A Geth on Palaven might result in a panic." Garrus pointed out.
"He'll be fine." Shepard reassured him.
"Well, if you say so Commander." Garrus shrugged. They got back in the shuttle and returned to the mansion and where greeted by Dranche and Wrache at the gate.
"Tidoses called ahead to let us know of your arrival, that talking Geth is already inside, never thought I'd say that." Dranche said with a chuckle. "Who are the Quarian and the Human?"
"Tali'Zorah vas Neemaand Jenny McKansa respectively, they're helping with the investigation." Shepard said motioning to the women as he introduced them. "How's the Krogan holding up?" Dranche frowned.
"He's on suicide watch over at the Police Station and before you ask I don't recognise him from my clan." Dranche said.
"Neither do I." Wrache said.
"Maybe he's a member of a clan that dissolved." Jenny suggested.
"Possibly, though we haven't been able to keep up with Tuchanka's politics since we took the job here." Dranche admitted. "For an outsider you know a lot about the Krogan."
"Because we share the ship with two Krogan, Drakus and Grunt, and I worked with Wrex in the past." Shepard said as the Krogan lead them in.
"You don't say, tell the old bastard that Wrache says hello when you get back on the Normandy." Wrache said as they approached the door to the study. "Hey, Legion some friends are here to see ya."
"Acknowledged, send them in." Legion answered and the four of them entered and saw Legion looking through the files on the computer. "Shepard Commander." Legion greeted.
"What have you found so far Legion?" Shepard asked.
"This unit has found that this computer has multiple profiles, the first one belongs to Marini Mirsali, the others belong to several well known diplomats and on those profiles this unit found that they had each made payments ranging in the millions to a Krogan known simply as Eridius."
"That must've been the welt that attacked him." Dranche said.
"Are there any other payments Legion?" Wrache asked.
"One was made yesterday to a civilian captain by the name of Dorodus Mckrensi to pose as a member of the Turian fleet in anticipation of your arrival." Legion said before continuing. "From there he was to lead them to an uncharted island abd execute each member of the Normandy's crew."
"You found that out via the financial records?" Shepard asked and Legion shook his head.
"No, there was a word document attached with those instructions, including a set for Eridus." Legion said.
"Somehow I doubt he'd have an easy time executing Grunt if that did work." Tali commented.
"Print the financial records and the instructions off, maybe we can use this to get Eridus to give up his employers, that and I won't have to worry about backlash from the council once it's proved that the ship wasn't a part of the Turian fleet" Shepard said.
"Acknowledged, printing them off now." Legion said, the records and the instructions printed off and Jenny retrieved them handing the instructions and financial records to Shepard.
"With these we may be able to bring Mirsali's Turian associates in for attempted murder." Shepard said.
"Not going to happen." Shepard turned around and saw Wrache and Dranche pointing they're shotguns at the team. "Nothing personal commander but we were offered triple our normal pay to let Eridus in, we only rushed in here as a cover." Wrache said.
"Don't say me and Tali didn't tell you so." Jenny said firing a shockwave at the two Krogans sending them flying, Shepard walked over to Wrache kicking the gun away.
"Tell me who employed you, Dranche and Eridus to attempt to assassinate Mirsali." Shepard warned.
"You think I'm stupid? They'll kill us if we reveal their names." Dranche said and Shepard turned to Jenny.
"Jenny, you know what to do." Jenny grinned and got her shotgun out, Wrache snorted.
"What can a puny human like her, biotic or not, do to me with a shotgun?" Wrache said but that was before she aimed it at his crotch.
"Not this again." Garrus cringed looking away.
"I know Krogans have four balls, this shotgun has four rounds per clip, and I have enough clips for you and Dranche." Jenny said and Wrache looked impressed.
"Nice interrogation technique, but encase you've forgotten Krogan can regenerate lost limbs." Wrache said.
"I honestly never thought I'd say this in any given situation but balls don't count as limbs." Jenny said pumping her shotgun.
"Okay you got me, I'll tell but I want in the Witness Protection Program." Wrache said.
"Same here." Dranche admitted.
"I'll talk to the local police force and see what they can do about that." Shepard said. "Same goes for Eridus." Wrache handed over the documentation.
"Here, the names of our employers, also if Legion looks further into the files he'll find that Mirsali was framed for Treason." Wrache said.
"You kept a record of your employer's names on you?" Tali asked.
"A habit I developed during my time as a Bounty Hunter, just encase my employers betray me." Wrache admitted.
"Legion, search for those documents, I think Tidoses will want to hear this." Shepard said.
"Acknowledged, looking for documents now." After a half hour of searching he found them. "This unit has found the documentation, sending it to Turian government."
"Good, Garrus escort these two to the police station; I'll tell Tidoses the good news." Shepard said.
"Right, come on you two or Jenny won't hesitate to use her shotgun on your balls." Garrus said leading the Krogan out.
"Tidoses, it's Shepard, Jenny and Tali where right about the Krogan but they've given up their employers and the fact that he was framed." Shepard could hear her sigh with relief.
"Thank you Shepard, unfortunately the news has come too late, my father died of a heart attack on the operating table a mere moment ago." Shepard's eyes widened.
"I'm sorry for your loss Tidoses." Shepard said.
"Don't worry, my father and I where never that close to begin with." Tidoses said. "I'll meet you on the Normandy."
"Hold on Garrus." Garrus stopped and turned to Shepard as did the Krogan.
"What is it?" Garrus asked.
"They won't be getting immunity." Shepard said and the other crew members looked at him oddly.
"But you said....." Dranche started.
"Garrus, what's the penalty for killing a well respected Turian diplomat?" Garrus blinked.
"Death by firing squad, why do you....." Realisation hit him. "Mirsali's dead isn't he?"
"Yes." The Krogan's eyes widened.
"It was Eridus, he shot him!" Dranche said.
"But due to the fact that you let him in your just as responsible as he is!" Garrus said.
"And we have your shotguns over here so yeah, you won't be able to get out of this." Jenny said.
"The Turian government has dropped the charges Shepard Commander." Legion said.
"Let them know of his death and tell them that Krostal Dranche, Urdnot Wrache, a clanless Krogan by the name of Eridus and Mirsali's associates are responsible for the crime." Shepard said and Legion nodded.
"Acknowledged, though this unit thinks the fact that it'll be all over the news soon will let them know instead." Legion said.
"We're heading back to the Normandy, Garrus meet us there." Shepard said.
"Got it Commander, see you then." Garrus said as the three soldiers left the study.
