"Well, there's no harm in checking to see if there's certain paths that are cleared in the RIP." He said to her, and when he felt like she might not entirely understand what he meant, he fished in his pocket for a holodisk, placing the coordinates of it to the system they were currently in. Stopping for a moment, a small image of the system, including Fornax and its sister planets, as well as the asteroid belt appeared before Sayeeda. 

"I'm not an expert, but in RIP travel, there are never certainties on whether you can make it to your destination, but neither is there ever a certainty that you [i]can't[/i]." He explained, and then pointed at a section of the asteroid belt. "Now, if we were feeling frisky we could head out here to one of their outposts on the belt. Outposts are generally located where the RIP is the calmest, therefore the easiest to travel." 

He gave Sayeeda a wink, turning off the disk and slipping it back into his pocket. "So, maybe we can check with Lord Cho-Lan to see if we can get a contract to go and see what's happening out there. They're bound to have radio silence. If we can find a way through the RIP, we ship the cargo. If not, we come back here and get paid for reporting in. Sound good to you?" He asked her. To be honest, he'd much rather have gotten laid than all of this nonsense, so he wanted to bleed this planet for all its worth.

"Fine, we'll make contact with this Cho-Lan and see if we can convince of this little scheme of yours" Sayeeda said, giving Neil a light push. Neil grinned. "You can just say you're impressed. I don't bite." 

They wired themselves to the public access channels of the Cho-Lan district, and after a lot of hassle with people who wanted to feed Sayeeda and Neil with enough bullshit to try to deter them from speaking to their boss, they were patched through. The man sounded completely tired at the moment, but it only took a few minutes to convince him of their plan to check things out. He offered 2,000 Terran credits, which wasn't too bad, though a little more might have been more apt for someone who was getting a risk free line of sight thanks to them. 

"Let's haul this cargo first." Neil said once they made it to the hanger, entering the custom launch codes so they would be given leave to exit the atmosphere. He headed out of the opened cargo door and was just about to begin unloading when he noticed something odd about some of the crates. "Is this Coffee!?"
