To CN and FB
| Honestly man...After what happened to me last night at the Heart Beats Bar, I really don't know if I feel safe going back there. Crazy shit went down...I barely found a safe place to stay just now...and honestly, "safe" is relative for me now.
Is there somewhere else you'd like to meet? If not, maybe I can make my way back there, but not right away.

I don't really know of anywhere else, but I'm still going to meet with CN if I can. You can come then if you want.
But I've got something interesting for you. Very interesting. I... Think this is our murder weapon.

| This crazy syringe gun shit was found in the armory on my lsst two days. My girlfriend knows exactly what it is. It's not a standard after the Apollo bank incident for some reason. As any records of Valkyries using it past that time aren't in the system at all. I'm scoyring it right now trying to find any recorded usage post Apollo incident. But I'm not finding anything. Someone who has armory access tried to plant evidence. It's creeping me out.
-RaIn
| ...Holy shit.
This is the exact weapon that I found. This is the Type-11 Narthecium. And one JUST SO HAPPENED to show up in your armory the night that my friend got killed with one?
Whoever killed him was in that armory last night, RaIn. This is huge. Is there any street cameras or like a visitor's log or something that we could use to find out who placed that there? This could be the trail we need to follow.
-FB.
| Or at the very least, that is the murder weapon. Whether that was the killer who placed it or not though, that is way too damn coincidental.
-FB.

The visitor logs are nothing out of the ordinary. I doubt they'd sign in to do something like this. However it begs the question as to how they got in. As for security footage, I'm going through the armory stuff with a fine toothed comb.
| There are random skips in camera footage here and there,but those were normal. It was to avoid data overflow. However no one besides me and whoever installed/bought the things would know of this. I'll check other cams but this will take hours due to how junky the damn things are. I'll keep you posted.
-RaIn
| >>55439
Want some help on that?
>>55428
I'm not sure what happened at the bar and I'm sure that you have good reason to be paranoid but the Hearts Beat is one of the more safer places in the city. The bartender and his associates are... capable. -CN
| Thank you so much for digging into this with me. It means a lot to me. Tell me if you find anything else. Maybe check and see if you can find shipping manifests detailing when the last shipment of that tool came in? Or maybe even check and see if you can get the prints off of that one specifically, if you have it in your possession.
| In the meantime, I need sleep, now that I've found a safeish place to do so...Feels like it's been days, even though it's only been one.
One crazy, eventful day.
-FB.
| Before I go, to CN:
I know I saw your name mentioned in that "Shadowthreads" post. The one where the contracts are posted?
Yeah, well one went up for Ruby Rose >as I was sitting across from her at the bar.
I saw it on my mobile computer, casually scrolling through /cyb/. When I casually warned her she pulled out a big ass scythe and walked outside, started screaming at the walls. I got on my bike and bounced the fuck out real quick.
| I had no idea what the hell that was all about, but I'm pretty sure it doesn't involve me. Nonetheless, I am not a fighter or any sort of trained weapons specialist. I did wrestling in high school and I had an older brother that kicked my ass every now and then, but I've only shot a gun twice and I don't own one. I'm not gonna hold my own in a fight with people that are willing to go after a chick with a big ass scythe.
| >>55445
Yea uh, I don't know Ruby that well, but her methods to things are a little extreme in my opinion and that gets her in trouble. -CN
| So, until shit with her blows over, I am hesitant to really go anywhere besides where I'm at right now unless I absolutely have to. I'm not even home...And frankly, I don't want to disclose my current location on here. I get this strange feeling people are watching...
The scariest part was that it was a moderator on this site that accepted that contract. Proves how little one can actually safely reveal on the cybernet, I guess.
-FB.
| >>55448
Keeping your location secret is probably for the best. Information is a lot stronger in this city than any weapon. -CN
| >>55440
I'd give you the footage if I could safely upload it to you. But I really don't trust anything right now. I'll comb through it myself, and dupe it onto a flash drive and give you said drive at a later date. I'm just being really cautious now, nothing against you.
-RaIn
| Hey RaIn.
After some sleep, I realized something.
Why drop the murder weapon now?
I saw an old news story that showed a bunch of people all being killed in similar ways, probably using the same weapon to kill other people researching stuff. If this weapon is used by one of the Reapers, why would they drop it now?
Think about it. Doesn't it seem a bit...dare I say, TOO convenient for it to show up now?
I doubt the Reapers are done killing, coukd this be a trap or dead end?
-FB.
| Anyway, I'm interested to see what you found on your camera footage, but be careful. Keep in mind you guys are all now in on this, whoever came after my friend is likely going to come after us too once they find out that we are all researching. I don't want you two to get hurt because of me and my problems. In any case,I appreciate any help you can give, but it isn't worth your lives to me. I'd rather me and my friend be the only ones killed by this if worst comes to worst.

It's fine, *it's fine*. I've had more trouble than a couple of assassins when it comes to my life this past year. I got a pretty hidden safehouse with my team, so I know how to stay low. Either way, don't start talking all suicidal and stuff just yet. Let's go about this with the assumption that you won't die at the end, yea? -CN
| >>55714
Well, you know what they say about assumptions...but I guess trusting you is actually one of the less risky things I've done as of late with my occupation.
In the meantime, I've started working on a new game. Honestly, I think I'm subconciously using it as a way to vent. I have been learning how to design a little bit in my own time, and so I haven't been talking to my miser of a designer.
Interesting concepts so far. Liking how it's coming out.
-FB.
| I... I found some stuff. I don't think I was supposed to find out. But I did regardless. The blood inside the syringe was indeed human and relatively new. There were no prints, unfortunately... But there was a person on footage. For a few seconds. They just casually walk in and put the gun near a place where a gun had been taken out. I'm getting paranoid already.
There's no way someone could find me, but I'm still not sure. Having an ex Valkyrie Girlfriend helps.

I would if I had forensic shit at the palm of my hand. I don't even know the victim's name or bloodtype. But the cam footage gave me somewhat of a face that could potentially be ID'd. I'll get some still frames and show you two when we meet up.
Also I meant that she's nice to have as protection. Keep your mind out of the gutter you goof.
-RaIn
| >>55931
Right yeah. Sorry. Just woke up. My mistake.
Anyway the dropping of the weapon so frequently after the crime does seem very odd. Like they just handed it to me practically. There was of course a tracking chip in it, but I just assumed it was White Knight standard. Unless that thing had a more malicious intent. This could also just be some really passionate Sei fan that doesn't like slander on her name. But again I can't be too sure until I meet with you guys.
-RaIn
| >>55938
Hmm... maybe it's a countermeasure in an attempt to frame someone else if they got to close? Either way yea we should meet up. We can only discuss so much online after all. -CN
| >>55938 >>55942
Right, yeah, sorry I need to stay on topic. Games can come later. Murder investigations are first.
Anyway, I've stayed at my current location for about as long as I can and I have stayed my welcome. It's time for me to leave.
Where is a destination we can meet up? Preferably somewhere not in a crowded area, or with a bunch of cameras. Crowds kinda make me nervous.
-FB.
| >>56129
Hmm... well I would had suggested the Hearts Beat, but since you're not comfortable there I'm open to suggestions. -CN
| >>56132
I know a place. Have you ever been to the Old Town District below the Light Highway? It's a section of town most people don't know because a lot of common technology used there is now outdated and out of place. It's kind of poor, hence why a lot of people don't go there anymore. It's also below the Light Highway, so people are liable to literally fall through it into Old Town when their hovercars stall. That's how I discovered it, anyway. There's a place there.
| It's called Dorky's Barcade. Part arcade, part museum of ancient arcade games, part pizza parlor and after 9PM, a nightclub for 21+ only people to listen to blaring music and win alcoholic drinks by getting high scores on the old arcade games. A surprising amount of children are there during the day, there's an orphanage three doors to the left, so we have to go at night. It is so secluded, there's no way it WOULDN'T be safe.
I'll send you guys the address.
Sound good?

| Sorry about not being at the bar last night. Girlfriend kind of... Yeah, anyway. Tonight I'm free, If we can meet at the Heart beats bar I have a decent enough lead on this Reaper case. And of course I still need a job but that's kind of second hand.
Anyway, let me know if this is still a happening thing. Ciao
