Sender:Karl, from Johnny's Office's Cleanup Crew Recipient:Fleet Admiral Harold Sommerville Subject: Opening of canal, and proposition of collaboration
Fleet Admiral Harold Sommerville,
Greetings. Pleased to meet you. As said earlier, I am Karl. Employee of the Johnny's Office. Please excuse us for the reply delay, we had to review again our files about this, and organize our reply so that it's as best as we can do. Hope you will understand, Admiral.
We do not mind it. This is what make a human, a human. As soon as I saw this file, given to me by Johnny himself, I didn't believe him at first. Honestly, this was surprising. We will give you everything relevant we have. Unfortunately, Johnny was held at point-blank, 180° out of view of the battlecruiser, we theorize this is specifically to avoid not only identification, but also other valuable intel.
This Xeno Battlecruiser, has the callsign FRS Roanoke, FRS for Free Republic Ship, we assume. It possess Insurgency weaponry, and has a Capital Armor Upgrade of at least six (6). It has been sighted en route from California, in the Ontario system, at the map's south of the Medium Blue star. It was a long conversation, nothing much was said about the Xeno Alliance. Propaganda, clearly.
I believe the LPI- refused cooperation because Johnny is an ex-LPI operative, and that they sent a goon from Liberty's "S.W.A.T." to make us understand we should have no business with LPI-, despite having the official recommendation from a Commanding Officer, Jeremiah Sawyer, from an Interdictor-class Battlecruiser (of all capital ships). This isn't their problem, but the Navy. They're private after all. "Inc.", this has always made us laugh.
Yes, I understand perfectly that this is not a usual request from an Admiral, but we are used to unusualness. We, of course, won't refuse any contracts within reason (i.e. not launching a punitive expedition in Omicron Psi).
Investigating on Liberty is already ongoing, but w wonder what intelligence exactly you are looking for, and what type; white, grey, black? And also what kind of operations are you expecting us to do? False flag operations? Clandestine operations? Terrorist attacks? Bombings? Tailing a highly-ranked officer? Blackmailing one? Et cetera.
And of course, Johnny repeatedly tells us to continue investigating the corruption within Liberty, and cites it as one of the reason he left the LPI-. The latest one was a Navy officer letting two Xeno fighters go away in very high orbit (outside of range of Manhattan's defense grid), and without even averting their higher-ups. This sure won't be easy, as it may mean getting one of our agents inside one of theri agencies.
We will try of course. I hope the data we gave you here will be a good beginning, and hopefully, a beginning in cooperation between our Office, and Bretonia. I hope this also is worth some credits. We don't usually beg for money, but our latest expedition - the reason Johnny isn't here to reply himself, is costing more and more money, and we have about 14,000,000 credits in reserve.
We eagerly awaits your reply, Fleet Admiral, and I reiterate that it is a pleasure to meet you, on behalf of the entire Office.
