Star Control 2012/06/13 	 Miles Pleiades 2

When Pleia arrives, Miles Fuchs is sitting at a table, coffee in one hand, leaning over his pda, reading.

Pleiades skates over to him and sits down, "Hello, Sir."

Miles looks up from this work. "Hey there, Pleiades. Want some coffee? Uncle Sam is buying."

Pleiades blinks, and looks around, "Oh? Um, am I interupting your time with your uncle?"

Miles is puzzled for a moment, before he clues in. "Right. No. Uncle Sam is the government. It's goes back to..." He sighs an gives up on an explanation for the moment. "Look, I think we've caught a break in the stolen biotech case."

Pleiades perks up, "Oh, um, good?"

Miles says, "The guy I talked to at Starguard was useless, but when I asked about the stolen equipment back in Washington, they told me that there may be one more piece of equipment necessary to go with all the other ones that were stolen. Some kind of computer processor that's specialized for genetic sequencing or something or another. I'm no scientist."

Pleiades says, "Ah! So if we know who makes those, we might be able to catch the perpetrators in the act!"

Miles leans back in his chair smiling, with a little bit of pride. "It's made by a few companies nationally, and none of them are in Colonial Bay. However, there is a biotech company here that has a few of them."

Pleiades slams her gauntleted fist into her palm, "Great! So we should set a 25 hour guard on it!" Her gauntlet comments in German, "Yes my Comrade! Let us move closer to our goal!"
