<< Make it quick, [REDACTED]. You’re not the only bee buzzing in my hive today.
>> Of course, sir. There’s a priority asset inside the city. We need to pull it out.
<< Can you be more specific?
>> Sending you my report with relevant imagery now…
<< I’ll be damned… Either the Covenant’s getting sloppy or we’re getting lucky.
>> Let’s hope a little of both.
<< This intel didn’t come from your shop?
>> No, sir. From the city’s public security cameras.
<< Verification?
>> [REDACTED]. Single source.
<< And?
>> He checks out. [REDACTED], zero-zero-six-one-eight-two.
<< Municipal engineer… [REDACTED] public works department… What’s he

>> Damage control, apparently. He manages the [REDACTED].
<< The same machine that registered this… seismic anomaly?

<< Very well, [REDACTED]. Get it done. Just one more thing…
>> Sir?
<< The less your team knows about what they’re after the better.
>> Like you said, sir—restraint.
