After some research and prep, the crew travels to Golden Street to look for clues as to the targets whereabouts. On Golden Street, the crew meets their contact, Dynamite (aka Francis) and the troll Felix Alvarez, at the Turtle Martial Arts Academy. They learn of the neighborhoods social climate and the current positions of the areas gangs including the Red Dragons, the Cutters, and the new decker gang, the Slicers.

The crew explores the street, investigating the Slicer's establishment, Terminus. After being turned away at Terminus and consulting with Dynamite, the crew decides to visit The Lucky Seven to ask for information from the Red Dragons, taking advantage of Dynamite's contact with them. There they happen to find the leader of the Red Dragons, Fat Lee.

• Visited the hacker/matrix club, Terminus. It was closed.
• Traveled to the restaurant 'The Lucky Seven', where the Red Dragons hang out.

Part 2 Summary

Previously trying to avoid becoming entangled with the gangs in the sprawl, the crew find their contact with Red Dragon leader, Fat Lee somewhat troubling. However, after a discussion, they find that the Dragon's leader is somewhat on the outs, an aged troll who's more inclined to relive the past and tell circular stories. A vast difference from the brutal and violent gang leader he once was. After a confusing and seemingly pointless conversation, they leave The Lucky Seven, Dynamite revealing a secret message delivered to them while in the restaurant. Helpful, but an annoyance to the group.

Taking guidance from Fat Lee's message, MRV and Killy hack the host at a Slicer hangout. There in the Slicer host, they find a series of messages from various Slicer members alluding to several muggings in the area targeting persons with expensive-looking technology. They also find that Dylan Foster, a high ranking member or lieutenant of the Slicers, has ordered Slicers to avoid killing their targets.

Working off this, the crew sets up a sting operation to lure out Slicer members. Deadman poses as a target with expensive-looking tech and the crew ambushes a couple of Slicers. With a bit of magic from Mirror, they find out that the Slicers are meeting with the Cutters that night.

The crew also runs into their target, Robert Green, who they find has had the hard drive stolen from his cyberbrain, the target data stolen in the process. Robert Green has a recording embeded into his mind however, and with a bit of matrix work from MRV, Mr. Green illuminates some details of a "Project Titan". Within the recording, the crew find links between the project and The Archduke as well as their experiences at The Void.
