Save a Man's Career

Briefing

Recently a thief stole some valuable documents from a high ranking officer and friend of mine in the agent's corporation. These documents are very sensitive and we fear they were stolen by someone working for an enemy of ours. Fortunately, the information stored within the documents was encrypted using the very latest encryption software. The thief probably did not expect this, and we believe the information has not yet been revealed to him or his employer. Should it leak out however then the leader of the agent's corporation will be ... less than forgiving. Would you please save my friends career? I have been told by a reliable source of a shady person who docked here yesterday and was spotted near my friends apartment, and is most likely the thief of whom I speak. This person has very recently left this station. I will pay you 0 your reward if you intercept the thief, destroy his ship if he offers resistance and bring the documents back to me. I know you probably do not want to harm someone who may not be guilty, but I assure you that this scoundrel has a history of criminal offenses within the agent's region. The people of the agent's region will be glad to know of his demise. You have only 24 hours to complete the mission, but he will most likely be located in this very constellation.
