>>>>>[Okay, here’s what we do next. Faerie, you’ve got Simon Dallow, I’ll
take the Hammersmith internal security head Ray Vassilly, and Johnny, you get Vincent
Long. We’re going to lie to them all, play them off against each other, and see what we
can pull out of them.
I’m meeting Vassilly tomorrow, I’ll tell him that a former employee of
mine (played by Johnny) bought the info from Long, that he’s still got
it, and that he’s looking for a buyer. This will probably result in Long
being suspended, and even if he’s not, an internal investigation will
point at him too, thanks to Dallow’s efforts.
Johnny, once Long has been fingered, you go find him, tell him that you
know how he was framed, but not who did it, and offer to help him for a
price. Even if he isn’t scared rigid by his probable suspension, or if
it doesn’t go down that way, he should be fairly desperate once
Hammersmith’s internal investigation points the finger at him.
Faerie, you can then tell Dallow that Long is working on finding out who
did it, and that you’ll try to stop him. You should be able to extort
some money from Dallow to help him cover his tracks (he’ll probably kick
up a fuss at that, and claim that you got him into this, which is true,
but you can counter that with the comment that he wasn’t supposed to
leaves traces – and if he gives you too much trouble, you can always
threaten to pull a fade and leave him to face the music by himself).
It doesn’t seem likely that Dallow’s trickery will hold up against the
internal investigation forever, so at some point I’ll have to tell
Vassilly that it wasn’t Long after all. I’ll let him think I caught up
with Johnny, and that I’ve got the info back, but I’ll have to come up
with some reason why it couldn’t have been Long, and a reason why I
thought it was him in the first place. I’ll sleep on that one… and in
any case, it doesn’t pay to plan too far ahead, because things could
change quite easily.
We need to set some rules on how and when we contact our victims – rule
one, only one of us is meeting any of them at any given time. Rule two,
after each meet we send each other full details of what was told to
whom, so we can keep our stories consistent.
I’m off to see Vassilly now, so I’ll let you know how it goes.
What did Dallow get for us, anyway?]<<<<<
