With that he resumed his tinkering, occasionally raising the device he was working on to eye level after making minute adjustments to it. The unit was meant to replace the lenses in his helmet.[i] Well, not both of them, just one of them[/i] he thought to himself. The new unit would provide him with a telescopic sight, not as powerful as that on a conventional rifle, but it would no doubt come in handy if he got sent on any more covert missions. [i]Best to reconnoitre a place from a safe distance if one could[/i] he thought to himself.

After about 20 minutes of tinkering the device was about ready to install. Otto put it back down on his desk, deciding that now was not the time to try and install complex and delicate micro-clockwork machinery. [i]No[/i] he thought [i]now was the time to get something to eat.[/i] He peered over at the bar, the place still seemed to be bustling with people, so he decided to wonder over and get his usual evening meal, before calling it a day.
