"So, you guys were interested in the container we asked you to retrieve, right?"

Look, it's Elan Cubis, the PROGTECH research and development chief.

"It's only fair if I told you since you brought it back safely... well, for the most part. Anyway, we studied the derelict ship and you saved our databank with information pertaining to it. But that's not all."

"I've been investigating Nineball-related incidents, and the conflicts between various megacorps that were springing around lately. All my data is in the bank too, and let me tell you - something really fishy is going on there. Each time there's a huge battle, someone important, like an esteemed scientist, an investigator or a political figure, dies in collateral damage."

"I don't think that's coincidental. I think someone's causing these fights on purpose, as cover for assassinations."

"There's no visible correlation. Remember that this is only what those people let be publically known, or what I could find during my research. Just because they were interested in one, doesn't mean they ignored the other."

"Does violence as a cause of death count? That's where similarities end, I'm afraid."

...I see. Well, if anyone else ends up slotting into this pattern of yours... please inform Unity Group. Maybe you can even find these people before they're 'accidentally' caught in a battle.
