"Are things set up as we discussed, Fargus?"
"They are ma'am. There were some minor hiccups and a small group of intrusive rats that were snooping around, but they have been dealt with." Fargus said, holding out a tablet that was showing a news story from a few days ago.
It had been all over Azade.
A special investigator for the chancellor had been killed in a brutal attack by a gang of known thugs.
Photos of the violent scene were displayed in the article, and the rental vehicle that the special investigator and her two assistants had been using was a burnt-out wreck.
As for the gang, most of them ended up being killed in a firefight with Azade's Defenders of the Peace, but the leader and a few of his cronies had managed to get away.
That leader was the one that Fargus had indirectly contacted through several middlemen, one of which had already been silenced to prevent the connection from being traced back.
