First I check out the dark square - if it is a laptop I'd like to try opening a Gemini browser and post a cry for help. Then I take the keys and try the non-broken one on the locked door to the cellar and the doors upstairs.

Yep, that's a laptop.

It is a good while since ~Isvarahparamahkrsnah was seen around here: you guess he owns a spare laptop. The laptop is turned off, and it seems to be out of battery too. You see no battery charger, at least not in the cozy room.

The key doesn't enter the cellar keyhole: there's something stuck in there, and it seems to be a piece of key - most likely the one that is missing from the broken key. ~bartender must have another way to get in there.

You reach the first floor, leaving more tracks on the white dust that covers the landing. The unbroken key turns out to open one of the doors: you see a storage room full of supplies: spare glasses, jars of pickled vegetables, ingredients for cocktails. You see a refrigerator, Christmas decorations, a snow shovel, a red towel bearing the inscription: "Don't Panic".

There's no dust in this room.
