The others kept up their precautions for the weather, but Jack came into the shop dripping. She didn't have the kind of 'ware to rust, and she liked to feel the rain on her face. Boot-heels made unsubtle thuds on her way to the client, and some wary heads turned as it was clear quick that she didn't belong. Luckily she was smart enough to keep the chrome off display, so most of the eyes didn't linger for too long. She sat herself as the Wu exchanged handshakes with the others, but made no introduction herself. He knew what he was getting into in hiring her; there was no need for pleasantries.

The client gave a hearty chuckle at Serge as he firmly shook the hand of the broad-shouldered professional. [color=white]"You can certainly say they have ways of getting people hooked,"[/color] he replied as he continued with the greetings, stopping at Jack and giving her a knowing nod, [color=white]"Yes, I am he. And as you know, I have a pressing business proposition for you four. Now...[/color] He cleared his throat, wiping his hands off with his used napkin. Once the cloth was discarded into the twin bowls at his flank, he knitted his chubby fingers together before him, keeping stern eye contact with the team. [color=white]"The task we have for you is a simple retrieval service,"[/color] the man spoke calmly through his husky tone and professionally-groomed accent, [color=white]"Hosaka Electronics has a branch here in the city, and a week from now they're transferring an important asset to an unknown location."[/color]

An exhausted looking waiter troddled to the edge of the table, stains all over his apron. He held a notepad in a hand adorned with several junky cybernetic digits, with clear signs of rusting and wear. He took orders in a heavy accent and broken English, making the immediate assumption that the team couldn't speak Cantonese. The Wu gave pause in the boy's immediate presence, unwilling to let too much on among uninvited ears. 

Once the young waiter shuffled off with their orders, the Wu spoke up again, [color=white]"The transfer is by armored truck, so the extraction should be precise and potent. There will be armed guards aboard the truck and in the Hosaka facility. You can either infiltrate the facility and extract the asset before it is loaded onto the truck, or find a way to corner it during transit. However you decide to do it,"[/color] he leans in and speaks intently to make the point abundantly clear, [color=white]"The asset must not be harmed, and must not reach its destination. I'm sure professionals like you can understand these terms."[/color]
