I'll take a look into some rooms Greg’s Grog (44b) Inn Rooms 1-5
Brass has avoided the followers of the Abyss...

You head out into the night and join the search party heading toward Greg's Grog. The bar crowd tonight is lively and active, although you can see there are a few that couldn't stay in the game when it came to their level of alcohol consumption.

You head to the second floor to check out the first five inn rooms available for rent, which seem to be the cheaper rooms that aren't quite as high quality as the ones up on the top level, but considering some of the other sights around town that you've seen, they're not bad. Not like the Rusty Shine units at least. Here, at least you don't feel like you might fall through the floor.

The first is currently being rented by a Zorua and Vulpix couple that look like they crashed and barely made it up the stairs after getting hammered on something strong. The Zorua never even bothered to get on his bed before passing out on the floor while the Vulpix has been drooling on her pillow all night long.

You head to the second room, which doesn't look like it's been rented out to anyone tonight. At least not yet, anyway. You search the vacant room thoroughly, finding every one of the drawers completely empty. However, upon a closer inspection, you find something odd about one of the wood planks in the walls. After realizing it isn't completely snug against the wall, you attempt to pull it back and discover it slides away, revealing a space behind it.

Inside, you find a dusty cloth bag that looks like it's been here stashed away here for many years. Besides it, you find a note that has yellowed with age, and when you unfold it, you read the faded and barely legible words:

"Congrats on completing your part of the job, Malos. Here's the payment, as promised."

You open the bag to find $300SP$ of splinters inside. You're a bit taken back, wondering just how long this sack of money has been sitting here, never claimed by this Malos character, whoever and wherever they are. Part of you wonders if they're even still alive considering the age of this bag.

Convinced Malos never did and never will come this way to claim this money, you take it and slide the wood plank back into place.

$300SP$ has been added to Brass's personal inventory.

You decide to go through the remaining three rooms, but all of them have been booked tonight. From what you can tell, these Pokémon are simply passing through, but needed a place to stay until tomorrow. But among them, you don't find anything suspicious or out of the ordinary, and you don't pick up on any strange Stalker signatures while here.

You decide to head back to base, still wondering about what became of Malos and why they never managed to collect their payment. Nonetheless, you figure there's a number of things you could use the money on...
