He has in his mind a way there but it's a last resort, since it goes partially by street and he wants to avoid that altogether. There's too many gang members roving about in the Barrel and all of them would be looking for him at this point. Even if the Black Tips or Razorgulls didn't know what was going on, he wouldn't doubt them trying to get in good with Rollins over this. Brokering some kind of deal.
Though it's possible they'll steer clear, wanting none of the trouble. It's a unique situation that he's unfortunately the center of and he doesn't have enough intel on how the other gangs are reacting to know what they're thinking.
So, alternate route.
Inej does get up after a few beats, abandoning her bandages on the vanity. It doesn't take her long to trace out a path with her finger on the map, one he follows after to confirm. He traces it a few more times, committing it to memory, before folding the map back up and putting it back into his coat.
His hand isn't empty when he turns back towards her, holding a paper with the pale green seal of the Gemensbank on it. He holds it out to her, feeling both glad and anxious. ]
