>>>>>[ What Nightstalker is raving about is the elimination of Ganz's
decker
contract, George Hallowfield. We took an above the board method to remove him
form the picture.
Nightstalker slipped into the Arcology Public Phone system and set up a
electronic bug on Hallowfield's phone. This allowed us to intercept some very
incriminating messages from Hallowfield to Ganz. They were triple-encrypted
an appeared to be love letters under the second layer of the encrypt. I do not
know how Nightstalker was able to descramble them so easily. He told me it was
something he had been working on for a while and that NodeFaerie gave him the
last bit of data he needed to make it work.
Having the data in hand we set up a cover story that we were investigating a
data smuggling ring (there are advantages to being a Private Investigator) and
sept up a meeting with Renraku Security. We handed them the data and offered
to sell them the source. They accepted and we went to Mr. Hallowfield's
apartment since he had today off.
When Security opened the door, we fond SpotOn getting ready to kill Hallowfield.
I don't know how she got in there or how she planned on escaping once she had
killed him, but there we all were. SpotOn pointing a silenced pistol at
Hallowfield and us standing at the door with four Renraku Security Guards right
behind us. It was lucky for her that Nightstalker was thinking very quickly.
He some how convinced the guards that Vanessa was one of our operatives and that
she was just making sure Hallowfield did not leave. ]<<<<<

>>>>>[ Actually, I don't think what I said had much to do with it. They
mostly
let SpotOn leave with us because:
1. We had given them the Snitch.
2. We dropped our reward price to 1/4th the original.
3. We let them keep SpotOn's pistol.
4. They were going to "try him for treason" anyway.
For all you street types, that's corporate for "kill him for selling our
secrets". ]<<<<<
