F-141-Oliver: Spanial (Hyperspace to Mundo Zargo)

Alright… Oliver has a civil meal and then retires to his cabin to work on his projects.

Midway through Blue Shift, Oliver completes his work on Argyle’s IT Project #72.

IT Project #72

This work was commenced by Argyle on his own initiative after his first job for ‘Patron’ and something he seems to have updated periodically over time.  In particular after Project #59 to assist Patron’s ‘Associate’, where he seems to have leveraged knowledge gained.

The project’s content is Argyle apparently seeking to hack into Patron and Associate’s comms and seek out anything of interest, and which might be a threat to Argyle.

The project contains an inner data file which will need further work to decrypt.  The exterior files and data has all been anonymised, with references to specific identities replaced with pseudonyms – like Patron, Associate, Middle-man, Mole, Head Honcho, Enforcer and Big Boss.  

Oliver can determine that Patron appears to be a representative of a local organised crime syndicate and that is who has been feeding him work.  ‘Contact’ was apparently from a rival organisation who was trying to muscle in on the locals’ patch and was dealt with accordingly.  Argyle seems somewhat at ease that he’s regarded as a useful asset and is to be protected.

Argyle makes a note about all this to himself – ‘Palace Discipline – No Journals’.

fyi, I have updated the summary of Argyle’s IT Blobs.

What would Oliver like to do next regarding his Argyle research?
