I would like you, personally, to decrypt a file to insure its integrety as
well as secrecy. It is of considerable importance. So much so, that a
Mr. Isao Yamaguchi of Hayashi's San Francisco branch took it upon himself
to deliver it on a chip to a courier under most unusual circumstances. He
was under the influence of BTL at the time. The fool probably didn't even
consider the possibility of a member of our numerous competition finding
out about his little habit and slipping him a few psychotropic
"suggestions." Operatives of mine intercepted the data, as well as
recorded the incident, but allowed Yamaguchi and the courier to leave
without the knowledge that they had done so, therefore whatever data this
contains may still be of value in and of itself. It is almost needless to
say, but I believe Yamaguchi has placed himself, unknowingly, at the very
whim of our mercy. Now, let us make the most of this.
