Subject: First days in the Office.

So hello there, my hardworking colleagues. Guess your day job goes well in the land of the "Sons of Kusari", as they call us around here.

Now, if I had a one credit transfer for each time I hear a passerby exclaiming some variation of "You're pretty far from home Hogosha.", I would be one of the richest men in Trenton, at least.

But let's head on to the news of today. A lot has happened, indeed. Very good stuff.
-------------

So, Trenton and Manhattan started calm, with a Navy officer on watch to count as the only traffic.

Soon, the merchants passed by, with some loudmouths uttering the phrase I mentioned before. Then came a Junker (1), but he keep face in front of the Navy. Guess they getting better at holding some sort of "reputation".

Then a Liberty Rogue showed up, and suddenly LPI and Navy forces came pouring in. They were to take him by escort outside of Liberty, but some bounty hunters came in, and things started getting interesting.

One of the freelancer hunters was called Zettsu, flying this horrible piece of equipment called a Recycler (1) by the rust sniffers. Apparently he and another freelancer wanted to claim the bounty on the rogue, and the LPI on the scene were very lenient, and handed over his detainee to the hunters, who proceeded to make minced meat out of him. Guess that's what private police does to the law.

Then the Junker, who watched this, started annoying this Zettsu guy, claiming that he "stole" the eyesore of ship he was flying, with he flew with very good skill. The freelancer retorted that he had bought it "legitimately" from one of them Junker salesman.

Then- the-the J-j-j-Junker asked for his receipt *pft*, and c-compl...

*Adachi almost falls to the ground, giving out a roaring laughter as he remember the event.*

*After a while, he manages to calm down, and resumes his story.*

Heheheh, ahem. Can you believe this guys? A Junker asking for a receipt of a Junker "store". Comedy gold right there. Don't know why OS&C doesn't just hire them all to be entertainers at their liners, and end this pathetic excuse of "scrapping for junk".

The Junkers were complaining a lot to the policemen, literally begging leave to shoot the bounty hunter in front of them, while having just extorted 5 Million from the same pilot, some sort of licensing fee or fine.

Anyway, they rambled on and headed somewhere else, while I got distracted by an Order agent spreading rumors about Order deserters in Pennsylvania or Texas.

As I'm investigating this story, I arrived at Norfolk, where the Navy patrols find a Rogue Destroyer in the distance, with an Outcast (1) in tow.

Navy and LPI arrive soon, followed by an entourage of mercenaries looking for a good pay and a better fight.

In comes our protagonist Zettsu, and soon the JM too arrive at the scene.

A second Rogue destroyer arrives, and soon the Rogues and outcast engage the collective of Liberty forces and most mercenaries. I have little against the Rogues, but I decided to give some incentive so that the Outcast was dealt with in a timely fashion.

---------------

After this Rogue assault, where all criminals were destroyed in exchange for a Liberty Battelcruiser and a few mercenaries, attentions turned to the situation developing near Battleship Missouri. JM once again complaining to the LPI about the Junker vessel.

LPI officers attempted to mediate the situation in front of an increasingly large crowd. Junkers claimed the pilot was flying under police transponders, and flying a ship "not able to be bought by non Junkers", while Zettsu claimed that had paid for the ship once (and twice a few moments ago), and that was enough for them to drop the subject.

They didn't dropped the subject, and the LPI gave up on the case, allowing the 3 Junkers that had gathered up to warm their weapons against the lone wolf.

At the same time, some freelancers asked me if I was being troubled by the Junkers. Sensing an opportunity, I told them to stay close "and assist the law forces should trouble occur".

The Junkers, free from their obligations towards the LPI, engaged the freelancer, which skillfully dodged the aggressors. Junkers managed to raise the alarms on the Missouri and Norfolk with their reckless shooting, and the Navy patrols intervened.

The opportunity had appeared in front of me, and the Junkers had slip up. Claiming that the Navy needed help, I requested the mercenaries to expel the Junkers from the area, hopefully taking some heat off from the Zettsu at the same time.

A pair of freelancers, Strielok and Lt.Jack_O'Conner presented their services, and were successful in making the Junkers lose their prey, although they got burned down as a consequence. Zettsu however, managed to escape, not before taking down one of the Junkers himself.

With the Junkers actions thwarted and without a single shot fired, I sent my regards to the mercenaries and to the fugitive, praising their work in our benefit.

-----
I returned to Trenton, where I met this lady who was to marry soon, and had the particularity of being a mute.

Hopefully, I will manage to find some jobs for our young lady Katherine, as well to our new contacts here and there.

An enjoyable day, quite a surprise for this rotten territory they call Liberty.

Now, I need to get my dinner ready... ah dammit, forgot to pass by the store to get some more cabbages...

*transmission ended.*
