Late on the 12th or early on the 13th, Vic sent "Mister Ji" a quick email stating "I'd like the headset so it can be examined. Please drop it off at the New Hope Gym for me." which was signed "Vic"

Early the next morning the following text exchange occurred...
Mister Ji
(Mister Ji) Dropping off is dangerous. What about the items you sent your colleagues?
Gym's secure. Tell them its for Vic and not to play with it and they won't. Remember, system trashed as requested? "Orders" never processed due to this. Your's is it.
(Mister Ji) Please pick another drop.
Locker at train station. You pick. Drop off key at gym for me. That work?
(Mister Ji) NH Gym a front. Need another location please.
Who do you think it is a front for?
(Mister Ji) Not relevent ATM. Pls pick another drop location.
Prospect Roasters
(Mister Ji) Also a front, but that one OK. ;) Addressed to whom?
Vic. They know me there.
(Mister Ji) Wards & Protections may flag the package. Pretty paranoid there. Good luck.
(this message arrived after a brief pause) I called ahead. They'll be careful with it.
(Mister Ji) I meant, good luck with investigation. Be safe.
K TY will advise and update
A bit later in the morning a package arrives at Prospect Roasters...
Package Label

ATTN:   gumptious gal

FR  :   zhi shi mediciney

It's a small cardboard box, slightly squished like anything not from Amazon these days. Lined in aluminum foil and packaged in bubble wrap, the Visor is delivered to Prospect Roasters by bicycle courier. The Courier was paid by cash, by a Chinese woman working in a herbalist stand in Chinatown.

It's a courier used frequently to deliver teas and herbal remedies all over town.


Shortly after the delivery Vic swung by Prospect Roasters and picked up the package, she then personally took it to the Nexus and left it there with a note reading "Do Not Touch w/o Permission from Vic OR Rufus" written in bold sharpie text
