             POLICE QUEST II  ---  The Vegeance

                    Walkthru solve by V&D

      The  adventure begins when you, detective Sonny Bonds,
are getting to work at Lytton Police Station.
      First,  yuo have to GET KEYS from ignition.  Now  OPEN
COMPARTMENT  and  GET LPD BUSINESS CARD. You  will  need  it
later.  Ok,  in  order to leave a car press F4.  Go  to  the
Police Station and UNLOCK DOOR. As you are homicide officer,
go to the Homicide Office.
      SIT  on  a  spare  stool and LOOK  BASKET.  There  you
discover  subpoena.  UNLOCK  DRAWER,  GET  LETTER  and  READ
LETTER. GET WALLET (you can OPEN WALLET if you like  to  see
what`s  inside). C`ause drawer is now empty you  will  CLOSE
DRAWER.   STAND  and  look  around.  There  is   one   quite
interesting paper on captain Hall`s desk, so go near it  and
LOOK  PAPERS. You can see some words - write them down, they
are  passwords  to computer data bank. LOOK BULLETIN  BOARDS
near window and you will see that your shooting scores ain`t
too  good.  Don`t  worry,  you fix  that  pretty  soon.  USE
COMPUTER and TURN COMPUTER ON. You can use it as a primitive
dos   based   system  -  commands  like  DIR  and   CD   are
available.Feel free to dig around in data banks, but be sure
to   scan  following  topics  :  Personnel\Pratt_Lloyd   and
Personnel\Haines_Calvin. When you`ve had your fill  of  this
computer type QUIT to end computer session.
     Go to the Narcotics office and SPEAK TO LLOYD PRATT. He
has a drug-problem. ASK ABOUT DRUGS and you have saved Pratt
from his drug problem. Good work !
      You  must be thinking by now "what about that shooting
stuff ?". Be patient, we are coming to it. First you have to
get  some equipment. Go to the Locker room. In order to  get
your  locker code LOOK BACK OF THE LPD CARD. Now  find  your
locker   and  OPEN  LOCKER. GET YOUR GUN  from  locker.  You
must`nt  forget ammo, so TAKE AMMO CLIPS and TAKE HANDCUFFS.
CLOSE  LOCKER.  What are you waiting for, let`s  go  to  the
shooting range !
     GIVE GUN TO WEAPON OFFICER for quick trigger check. GET
EAR PROTECTORS from Mills and go to the free booth.
      This  seems to be a good time to give some tips  about
weapon usage.
     F6  - load gun
     F8  - Draw / Holster gun
     F10 - Shoot
   To leave a booth, simply type LEAVE RANGE. When in booth,
you  have  to operate buttons, change targets, and  do  some
other  things.  Before doing anything else, (this  will  not
apply to shooting, of course), holster your weapon.
      Ok, let`s get on with shooting. USE EAR PROTECTORS  to
pervent  permanent damage to your hearing system.  Now  load
your  gun  with F6 and draw it with F8. Get a good  aim  and
shoot.  Only one shot at a time will suffice. Lower gun  and
PRESS  VIEW BUTTON. LOOK TARGET. You will see that gun ain`t
properly  sighted.  ADJUST SIGHT.  There  is  two  screws  -
elevation  and  windage. Adjust them (with arrow  keys)  and
CHANGE  TARGET.  PRESS BACK BUTTON and shoot  again.  Repeat
this,  until you got gun properly sigted. If you should  run
out  of ammo, go see Mills and GET AMMO. Don`t forget to USE
EAR PROTECTORS when you re-enter to the booth.
      When  you`re all done, exhaust current ammo clip  into
target. Go back to the Mills and GIVE EAR PROTECTORS to him.
You also should GET AMMO - you newer know, when you may need
some.      Go  again to Homicide office, where captain  Hall
announces that Jessie Bains has escaped and assigns  you  to
this  case. OPEN CABINET and GET BAINS FILE. You notice that
there  is two photos of that bastard, so GET MUG SHOT. CLOSE
FILE  and  CLOSE CABINET. TAKE CAR KEYS from rack  near  the
window.    Go  to the hall and right behind a counter.  OPEN
THE  BIN and TAKE FIELD KIT. CLOSE BIN. Now is time  to  hit
the  streets ! On the parking lot you find blue sedan.  OPEN
TRUNK and PUT KIT IN TRUNK. CLOSE TRUNK. UNLOCK CAR DOOR and
go in car. Keith will follow shortly.   DRIVE TO JAIL
     There you see some little lockers. OPEN LOCKER, PUT GUN
IN  LOCKER  and  CLOSE  LOCKER. PRESS  BUZZER.  When  jailer
answers, SHOW ID and walk straight in. GET PATE FILE to  see
about  kidnapped jailer. CLOSE FILE. GET BAINS FILE. IN  the
Bains  file  is  up-to-date photo of Jessie Bains.  GET  MUG
SHOT.  CLOSE FILE. ASK ABOUT ESCAPE and go to the next room.
Witness  Saxton appears and asks, if you will help him  out.
Answer  him as you like, he won`t take you seriously anyway.
ASK  ABOUT ESCAPE to get more information. Leave jail,  OPEN
LOCKER and GET GUN. Sit in car and Keith will ran for it.

radio. DRIVE TO COTTON COVE. Keith will stake about jogger`s
sex and you can accept or reject.
      Go  to  the girl and SPEAK WITH GIRL. ASK ABOUT BLOOD.
Well, we have to check that bloody thing out, so draw a  gun
and  strode to the left. When Bains arrives, just shoot him.
You  missed him ??? Don`t worry he runs away. Stay far  from
the  street or you `ll be dead as a rock. Find a  trash  can
and  MOVE  TRASH, GET CLOTHES and READ NAMETAG. Walk  around
and  LOOK  DOWN until you find blood. Go back to  your  car,
