-to work... [A man is speaking, muttering gruffly. He's accompanied by a thump, as if someone hit his terminal (that would be because he did). For a few moments afterwards, there is silence, ended by a somewhat satisfied grunt.]

So, we're supposed to use these things to talk to each other? [From his tone, it's clear that he considers this a dubious idea at best.]

[There's a hint of shifting cloth, the creak of a chair, but the silence is shorter this time.] Right, then can anyone tell me where to buy decent cigars?

Well, there's the official police force, but then there's also private security. Lots of foreign businesses need security guards, bouncers, that kind of thing.

People with police training have just the right skill set. And you could always apply to Evandau for work - just because you can't be a cop doesn't mean he might not have something for you to do.

"Foreign" business meaning it's run by people like us?

[He can't say he likes the idea of being another commander's private errand boy any more than he likes the idea of "private security."]

Yes. Everyone brought to Tu Vishan from outside are called "foreigners".
