Systems visited:

Tau-37, Tau-23, Tau-29, Tau-31, Kyushu

Horacio and me were taking a look around Tau-23, where we ran into signora White.Rose... of the Golden Chrysanthemums, flying one of their bombers. She decided to accompany us on our patrol after I tried to chase an unknown contact she had discovered jumping to Tau-29, but I lost it from my scanners...

She managed to find the same one again flying through Kyushu just a little later, but it seems she let it go after a scan - a Zoner transport called \>M</.

Horacio and the signora also spotted a freelancer flying a Bretonian freighter, one that refused to stop for a scan. I managed to intercept it just before it reached the tradelane! The pilota was... a little bislacco to say the least, as was his accent. James.Malton, he called himself. After some questions, he managed to convince me he was working for nobody but himself, flying in goods from... Bretonia? I got some entertainment devices I had never seen before off him for a good price, while Horacio e signora White Rose were teaching an unfriendly capitano a lesson. Sadly, I didn't get to see the explosion, but she didn't even pick up any of the pearls he was carrying! Pssh... "Just tea", she said!

A little while later, after the GC signora had left us, we managed to catch a huge Interspace transport! It was a Libertonian model, I believe... They were carrying expensive, unrefined diamonds. The capitano tried his best to speak a little Maltese, it was amusing! Still, the IC|Flox left for New Tokyo 20 diamonds and 3,5 million credits lighter.

Shortly after, we scanned another bypassing Zoner transport, the Sur-Sydwn. A very friendly capitano! He was carrying something I hadn't known... "Iridium", he called it. Some metal, I think? He agreed to give us a donation of one million credits, and went on with his business.

Now, there is two more things I should mention. Firstly, I received a transmission from a Rogue complaining about some of these CoJ idiote, signor Darrell was his name... Oh, let me just attach the log, si?

CFH-Dimebag.Darrell: Greetings 75th, your group at one time vouched for Maverick and Fouzboy, yes?
Camilla.Petrucci[75th]: Uh... ciao! Scusa, I was a little busy.
CFH-Dimebag.Darrell: No problem. Now, do the Outcasts claim these CoJ as their own?
Camilla.Petrucci[75th]: I certainly don't, signore. You are a... Rogue, si? I have heard some.. stories about them causing trouble, I'm sure no one on Malta would weep for them. You would have to ask signora Leslie to be sure... What's the matter?
CFH-Dimebag.Darrell: They have allied themselves with Hellfire, and are sitting outside Rogue bases, shooting us.
Camilla.Petrucci[75th]: Oh... serio? Merda... I'm afraid we can't do much now, signore, we are at Malta and about to end our day, not much fuel left...
CFH-Dimebag.Darrell: Understood, but I hope these tools are not working with the Dons blessings.
Camilla.Petrucci[75th]: Of course not! Would you mind recording evidence of this and sending it to us? I'm sure they won't get away unscathed...
CFH-Dimebag.Darrell: My guncams recorded their conversation.
Camilla.Petrucci[75th]: *She nods* Comprendo, will you be able to send it to us?
CFH-Dimebag.Darrell: Yeah, had a problem so it doesn't show the part about them allying, but it does plainly show them working with HF
Camilla.Petrucci[75th]: Oh, bene! I hear from 'Cio.. eh, Horacio, my wingmate, that they are more known for trouble than I thought.
CFH-Dimebag.Darrell: Them shooting me down was proving their usefulness to HF.
Camilla.Petrucci[75th]: Si, receiving your evidence will certainly help, signore. And I'll know what to do when I run into one of these culi... I apologize for their actions, also... They certainly don't represent Malta and our intentions.
CFH-Dimebag.Darrell: I'll make sure to pass it along once I can get to a terminal. Right now though I need to start replacing hullpanels.
Camilla.Petrucci[75th]: Grazie mille for informing us, signore, and I hope you are well. We'll hear from you, si? A presto!

It is quite bad... the second thing is better news, though. We met the capitano of the Sur-Sydwn again, right at Malta! It turns out he has been supporting the empire with supplies and through distributing Cardamine for quite a while... Of course, we had a nice talk - 'Cio and me decided to send him his credits back, I would not feel right about... borrowing money from our smugglers. Rather, I offered the capitano our help, and so did he.

Sur-Sydwn: If you ever need anything delivered or supplied with due haste, don't hestitate to tell me either. I'm happy to oblige.
Camilla.Petrucci[75th]: Grazie! I will let commandante Leslie know.

That would be all for now. My comm device seems to be having some issues, so I will submit this in the coming days.
