They discovered large sums of money had been deposited into the accounts of the deceased officers, all funneled through several shell companies.
“Look at this,” Renée said, pointing at the screen. “These transactions are deliberately convoluted. Whoever’s behind this wanted to cover their tracks.”
Abigail nodded. “But they made a mistake. These shell companies all trace back to a single branch of the Bank of the Canadian Expanse on Ottawa Prime.”
As they pieced together the financial trail, Renée and Abigail realized they needed to dig deeper. The complexity of the transactions indicated a well-organized effort to conceal the true source of the funds.

“We’ve traced the money back to Ottawa Prime,” Renée reported. “It’s clear we need to investigate further.”

As they approached the Ottawa System, Ed gathered his senior officers for a final briefing. “We need to approach this carefully,” he said. “Our primary goal is to follow the financial trail, but let’s take the opportunity to catch up with our allies and gather any intel we can.”
J.J. nodded. “We’ll be ready for anything, Captain.”
Upon docking at Ottawa Prime, the crew was greeted with the familiar bustle of the spaceport. Ed couldn’t help but feel a twinge of nostalgia as they made their way to the branch of the Bank of the Canadian Expanse.
Inside the bank, Renée and Abigail approached the manager, flashing their badges. “We need access to your transaction records,” Renée demanded.

Spacedawg nodded. “And I miss them. Let’s catch up while you’re here.”
