Continued from here"We are going to my family's cabin," she explains in response to your questions. "It's on Munsö, near the north end of the island. But I don't think he's in the cabin."
As she's talking, she's unfolding a map she found in the van's glove compartment and pointing out the location of the cabin on it to you. It'll take you a while to drive there and you'll have to take the ferry as well.
"My father used to tell me stories of how he never felt at home anywhere except in those old Loop tunnels. And that even after the Flood, he went down there sometimes. Apparently, there's an old robot factory down in the tunnels, somewhere near the cabin. If he's going to choose any place to try and... you know, I think that's it." She takes a deep breath. "We need to be fast. Let's hope he hasn't destroyed the vials yet. And that we get there not too long after him."
The drive goes surprisingly well. The checkpoints Krafta has set up don't even force you to stop anymore, only to slow down so they can look inside your vehicle and make sure Järnek isn't there. Apparently, finding infected students just isn't a priority anymore right now.
After a pretty long and tense drive, you arrive at the Järnek family cabin. It's pitch black outside with only the headlights of the van lighting up the place. The house is dark as well. Next to it, there's a large black car parked that you recognize and Mia identifies as Järnek's.
In the light of your headlights, you see a whole bunch of fresh footsteps in the snow around the house but it's difficult to make out any pattern or direction in them without getting out of the car. The front door to the cabin is open.
