Briefing
Greetings, Special Agent.
It’s great to hear that your exercise went well, and congratulations to your team for winning. Now, let’s get back to business. Our old friend Maksim Kotova has escaped the Schneider residence under mysterious circumstances, and our field agents did not see anyone leave.
Nevertheless, we are determined to capture him this time, by any means necessary. A few weeks ago, one of our field agents managed to sneak into the residence and attach a GPS tracker and camera device to Maksim’s jacket.
Unfortunately, it seems that Maksim has taken some countermeasures, as the GPS functionality of our device doesn’t seem to work, most likely due to some jamming device he has on him. Nevertheless, our device automatically connects to any public WiFi network in range and uploads the photos it takes.
It is your assignment to use these photos to locate Maksim Kotova. One you do, we will send in one of our top field agent, Ricardo Alvarez, AKA the Bloodhound. He will make short work of Maksim.
As always, Special Agent, the contract is yours, if your choose to accept.
