Shelter Notes
1 of 4: Some people will run out of this shelter when you open it.
2 of 4: If you're charming or intimidating enough, you can get some items and a smuggler contact name from them after you finish talking to them about other things.
3 of 4: Inside the shelter is a storage locker that you can try opening if someone has a high enough Electronics talent, but quicksave first. It'll only give you one chance to open it via Decryption Minigame.
4 of 4: If you fail, you'll have to either spend 25 omni-gel to open it or restore your save and try the minigame again. You probably won't even have that much omni-gel, so restoring your save is definitely the best choice.
