Ah, right, you decided to buy the VERY ADVANCED BUNDLE.

Oh! You also forgot you bought a REFINED BINARYSTONE too. You'll add that to your mental list.

With that settled, you take a good long think on how to handle this. You <span class="mu-s">really shouldn't call 'LEOHT'.</span> Not with this much heat. Not with the spooks being as active as they are. Not with your BIG DAY approaching. Maybe you'll ask around about where he lives with your trusted allies and Otto maybe but...
No. Not right now, at least.
You keep the folder regardless. Just in case. After closing the folder and placing it back into your inventory, you decide it's probably best to check up with the Handler about the other Foxtrot you heard about.
He picks up the moment you dial up his number. Can't blame him with your track record. "Hello, hello! How's my number one Cleaner? Well, probably more fourth place over my whole career buuut in the last year? Definitely number one."
>TARNISHED GOLDEN NECKLACE ACTIVATES!
><span class="mu-g">"She doesn't normally call me this early. Something's wrong. Something's wrong, I don't like where this is going."</span><
"Doing well! As well as I can be given the circumstances. So, uh, it's about a rumor I've been hearing. Do you know anything about a Delta Foxtrot? Supposedly starting syndicates across the City?"
"Oh. Well, that's certainly a name. A name that I have definitely heard of before. A name that-" It's clear he's deflecting or hiding something. "Where the fuck did you hear that name? Who told you that?"
"I heard some old dudes over here in I-Corp talking about him."
"Well that's a shock! Not sure why they would be talking about my <span class="mu-b">old man</span> when he's six feet under. Got a description of who this motherfucker is?"
"Mashed up face, like ground beef, supposedly rich and famous?"
><span class="mu-g">"No. No it can't be."</span><
"We'll talk about this later. I need to talk to some of my contacts. If you see someone matching that description, DO NOT ENGAGE WITH HIM." The line goes dead after that. That reaction basically confirms your suspicions but that comment about him using his father's name is odd.
More and more odd details adding up, huh?
[UNSTABLE] WOULD HE BE THAT MUCH OF AN ISSUE TO DEAL WITH? DIDN'T WE DEEPFRY HIS BRAIN WITH CHEMICAL NERVE AGENTS? PLUS THE HANDLER MASHING HIS FACE IN?
[PERSON OF INTEREST] Well I think we all know who would interfere, after all the only way he could've-
[ANOMALOUS ABILITIES] Let's not assume it's always the spooks. They're powerful but there's a million other factions or benefactors who could be blamed.
There's nothing you can really do for the time being. With nothing else to check out in this general area, you make your way over to the train station so you can check up on your old sub-district: G-ALPHA-1. The station attendant looks at you weirdly when she sees what district you're heading towards. "Miss, do you know...?"
