The roadside booth glares under the relentless midday sun, its cheerful pastel pink and blue paint stark against the dark, spreading pool of blood on the floor. A sign overhead reads "1 CLICK=1 DOLLAR" in bright, jaunty letters, but one corner is smudged with a crimson handprint. You step closer, gravel crunching underfoot, and find him—a man in a torn pastel suit, collapsed face-down in the growing stain. His blonde curls are matted with blood, his right eye socket a hollow cavity, a gunshot wound torn through his cheek. His left arm ends in a ragged stump above the elbow. He shudders, lifting his head weakly. His remaining blue eye finds yours, clouded with agony. "Please, help…" he croaks, his voice fraying. The air hangs thick with the scent of iron and burnt cloth. What do you do?
