This is AWACS Sky-Eye. Little Red is lost.
I repeat,
Little Red is lost.
| This transmission is decrypted... Interesting.
-r
| ... I get it, GCPD was transporting... Well, anyone care to go on a hurt bird hunt with me? I feel like getting some exercise. All we need are the coords, I'll get to work on that side.
-黒神
| >>326323 >>326306
Let's get a show on the road, here's to hoping for minimal interference... SAINT, I have reason to suspect foul play, if you catch my drift
With that said, we need to hurry and get over there, as soon as I get news of the location
-黒神
| The drive guy? yeah I get it
-SAINT
| I suppose more eyes won't hurt...
-Alter
| Can Yss come too? Pleeeease?
-YSS
| New info, got my hand on some stuff, looks like they departed from Midnight towards Industrial, passed over Downtown, that restricts the search zone, but something bugs me about this, the place they left from, it's not corporate or GCPD. I'm dispatching the entire Rivera-Nu Series to seek the crash site, you guys should get moving too, will keep all of you posted.
-黒神
| Ditto. -KN
| >>326349
Aw man don't steal all the glory, i just figured ut the same thing...
Then again...
Ugh i'll probably kicked out if just laze around like this all day...
-ACe
| Vindertech van is friendlies, adjust your IFF.
—JoKey
| Oh what fun
If you all do not mind i will come along as well
>N3verW3re
| Not seeing anything at the edge of Downtown... I'm looking at gang territory right now.
-YSS
| Contacted Springfield family, nothing on their territory.
—JoKey
| Currently flying over Industrial... Did the SAM ran out of rockets or what? These damn buildings loves to obstruct the range I swear.
Heading for some potential crash points now.
-r
| Had ground team dispatched to the launch sites. They report the weapon to most likely be a handheld device, although they can't determine the manufacturer or model.
—JoKey
| Why couldn't it have been somewhere else?
-Tiger Tim
| >>326437
Just... just a bad feeling.
I've called in a couple favors... did some snooping around on the Matrix... you know, the usual.
I took some info y'all been posting here and elsewhere, and tried using the satellites of a certain security company to like, plot out where he might have crashed, right?
Well, I don't want to be right. There's gotta be a mistake.
Cause... cause if I'm looking at this properly...
...
...ulk to hell with this man! Frag this!!
-Tiger Tim
| Unharmed i'm sure
| FUCK, guess the stress really is getting to me
-黒神
| Hmm swarms are picking up fuck all.
Anyone else got any bright ideas?
>N3
| This is getting a little tense up here. You never know when someone's about to shoot you out of the sky.
Anyways here's the approximate coordinate of the crash site. Exact location unclear.
>A bird's eye picture is uploaded with a bunch of coordinate and a circle showing the location at some obscure part near Industrial(?)
Requesting verification of the coordinates provided.
-r
| >>326510
Looks like a lot of trespassing on foot. I'd better bring bolt cutters.
>image of a circle inscribed in a square, divided by a "Y"
If you see my tags near the site, it's safe.
-YSS
| Hm, well seeing as Runa is still alive and kicking, I guess those SAMs were targeted at the very least.
I wonder how they figured out about the transport...
| >>326510 >>326517
To save time on red herrings, I will go ahead and say that these coordinates are wrong- after a time skip, you will find that nothing is there.
| ... Wait a second, the fuck are we doing, we have thousands of eyes in those areas, especially downtown, how the fuck would we miss a planecrash, much less not even a hint of the smoke trails. Little Red said they were going off course, so if anything, we should look everywhere *but* there...
Not that that exactl *helps*, but maybe...
-Ace
| >>326712
Seeing as they were heading to industrial, and crashed in route while over downtown, we can only assume that we'll find them there. The comms also mention an 'infected district' and 'contested territory', so we might want to check corps and spooks in the area. If we knew the time of the crash, we could narrow this down extremely, seeing as the pilot mentions and ETA of 25 minutes, give or take 5.
-黒神
| Turns out the fire I thought was a crash was from an industrial accident.
>>326760
"Infected district?!" Not going near that without a heavy E suit.
-YSS
| You ever wonder if the rest of the world actually... Exists? Maps are made with people, and people have agendas... Makes you wonder if they ever try to hide anything... After all, there doesn't seem to be any district suffering from an infection or contestion... on paper anyway
Of course, I could just be a conspiracy theorist.
Anyway, found a buncha places that used to but don't exist on today's maps, probably QUINCY's doing.
I always thought the maps were too small...
-Ace
| Anyway, going to investigate, though if the administration really wanted to they probably have a whole ton of jamming and other ways to make investigators... vanish.
Might just be ruins, might save Geekboy might get myself killed
ah well.
-Ace
| >>326813 >>326814
... I see, so it was a case like this. Too often are things hidden by vicious observers, I will try to find such a place... and to you, godspeed.
-黒神
| Can't find anything *sigh* Went around the districts, nothing.
Minor turbulence when taking off, hit by a storm during flight, unless it's another type of storm, then SAM shot it down...
Anyone got a weather report?
-r
|
| Does anyone have any info on Geek boys whereabouts?
-W
| The crash was in an "infected district". Being former White Knight myself, I'm capable of probing inner GCPD databases for their current status of the districts, but..."Infected" is a codename only used for very specific outbreaks...
...I'll be back with more info from the inside.
-Fuschia Fedora
| >>330357 "Infected" normally means...well, infected. Cyberzombies, chemical weapons, virus bombs, any threat of a plaguelike nature that threatens sending an entire district into the dark. They also said "contested" though, so that means it isn't fully dark. Still researching
-Fuschia Fedora.
| An infected area, eh...? Fun~

| >AWACS-"SkyEye":
Good evening "Little Red," this is "SkyEye," beginning operation.
>"Little Red":
Solid copy, SkyEye... minor turbulence, looks like rain.
>SKYE:
Good eyes. We are prepped and ready to receive before the storm hits. Confirm visual.
>LR:
Negative, I don't see... well I'll be damned. He actually showed up.
>SKYE:
Little Red, confirm dustoff and ready to initiate radio silence when you're at 10,000. Can never be too careful.
>LR:
Hard copy, preparing to receive package. Insurance loaded, waiting on package.
