"Yes, we should probably get moving. The longer we stand here, the more impatient he gets." Richard said before leading the others off the plane. Dona was the farthest back and strangely quiet as they left. Richard walked up to the man and shook his hand. Dona opened the discussion with her question.
"Not here, I won't be speaking a word of anything until at we are moving."
The man in front of them spoke in an accent that made it clear that not only was he English, he grew up in the aristocracy of the land.
"Of course, perhaps you can give us a quick brief on the way and an in depth one when back at your headquarters?"
The man simply nodded before getting in the limo and expecting them to follow. They all climbed in behind him and the troops guarding the convoy got back in their vehicles before all the vehicles left the hangar in an orderly fashion.
"Sorry for the paranoia back there, but it has saved my life more than once though. The man you're looking for is very much alive. His arson was sloppy, and he left more than enough evidence to confirm his existence to those who knew what to look for." The contact provided the information with calculated vagueness that had been crafted over years of working in intelligence gathering.
"Can't wait to find out what else you learned. I knew you wouldn't let me down." Richard replied. With the convoy using sirens to move quickly they reached the headquarters, it looked like all the other businesses in the area except there was no name anywhere on the building. The contact got them all through the metal detectors and guards without issue and the were soon in a conference room well above the skyline of the city.
"Your man's name is Leon Noles, former actor and magician. He was very good from what I was able to gather, in both respects. We could not confirm nor deny whether he was the one who shot Dona, but his going underground soon after the death would make him a very likely suspect. The fire at his home was meant to get him presumed dead, and it worked. Since then he has found work under many assumed aliases, but never changed his physical appearance. We know he is here because of that vanity, as he was captured on cameras in every city. We don't know where he is hiding out or staying, but considering his credit card doesn't have any charges to any kind of hotel or apartment complex, it is safe to assume he is in a decrepit building somewhere. From his purchases we can assume he is somewhere in this area of the city." The contact said after sliding a file to the center, it contained all the information listed, shots from security cameras dated up until the day before the very meeting, copies of all charges to his credit card and where they came from, and a list of all aliases he had used since going underground. He opened a map of the city up with a circle in red pen near the center of the city and placed it on the table.
"We can't narrow the area down any further than that, but we know he is somewhere in that circle. Any questions?" The contact finished before standing back.
