After leaving the grounds, Alice took Alex to a room which she described as, "The briefing room."

When they arrived, there was someone waiting for them. Alice's sister, Zira.

"This is the young master?" Zira commented as soon as she saw Alex. She hadn't been present in the mansion yesterday as she was out collecting information about the whereabouts of the spy. She knew that the young master was small, but she hadn't tried to learn too much about him beforehand. She just thought that he was going to be there, and her sister was going to train him a bit before he became relevant. But when she heard that he had requested to lead the mission planning this time around, her interest was piqued.

"You must be Zira."

She approached him, inspected him from head to toe, and then nodded in approval.

'Full of openings. Guess he is a kid after all.'

"I guess I can work with that. Personally, I would have been more at ease if you had been a normal kid, but I guess that is what you get when you meet someone from the main family."

She extended her hand and patted his head. "Let's hear about this plan of yours."

Alex actually liked Zira better than Alice after this interaction, because the older sister was too wound up. From the very start, Alice had been observing him, but she didn't try to make it obvious. It was as if she was trying to figure him out. But the younger sister simply didn't care about his status. She was a simple person, who was currently enjoying playing the role of the elder sister.

"I want to analyze the information for a bit before I can formulate a plan."

The atmosphere around Alex changed. He fully started concentrating on the files on the computer.

Target is currently located near the Russian Embassy of Vienna. They know that they are being trailed. But at the same time, there is no indication of them being only one person. There can be more, and the current person can be a decoy as that is the only reason that we can come up with for their confidence. The main target is currently in the 2 stars hotel, Hotel Terminus. However, we can't openly start anything, because of the decoy probability, as well as non-cooperation from the government on this matter. It isn't too far from the Embassy, but the help from the government is almost negligible, because of their inability to deploy personnel. They want to help us, but they need our information to be on point for that to happen. Someone in the government is backing this person, and it has become increasingly difficult to pinpoint that person due to a lack of support from the government.

Alex frowned. He didn't expect the situation to be this bad. The Austrian government had warned them about the consequences of an open manhunt on the general public in a highly influential area. Since the information they had was limited, they couldn't even try something, because that would mean rebelling against the government.

But then, his attention went towards the maps and the pictures of the hotel from the inside and the outside. These were taken before all the events had started to happen, and after observing for a while, the cogs in his head started to roll.

"That's what you get for being overconfident." Zira chuckled as she saw the face of the now perplexed Alex. "I am telling you, kid, let us take care of this. You can learn more as you start to gain more experience by following Sis. You don't need to act like this in front of us."

Alex didn't respond. He was completely focused. He took the map and started to mark positions according to the info. He also factored in the people that are in the embassy, working as staff employees. Their information made him come to a sudden realization.

"Three vantage points, Seven escape points, Two blind spots to incapacitate guards if present, We need someone quick on feet, and we need to kill the target rather than capture them. But I don't think we will be able to do this in the hotel."

Zira was a bit dazed at first, but then she was skeptical. "You don't need to be a try-hard."

Alice however, had her jaw-dropped due to shock. She had seen the previous pictures of the insides of the hotel, but only now was she able to make sense of what could be done in those places. This wasn't something that can be done through simple deduction. This was all done through detailed analysis. Now even she could see the monster in him. This just wasn't normal.

"Zira, observe. Young master is serious." Alice answered.

Zira didn't know what his sister was talking about. She cross-referenced them with the pictures.

'Is this a dream?'

"Let's discuss how we are going to execute this. I am at least 80 percent sure that he is not the only spy, and he has been venturing out of the Hotel regularly."

Alice and Zira took a seat around the table. They didn't dare to underestimate him any longer.

"The room in which he is currently in, Room number 302, is located in a way which minimizes the view from the points that I mentioned before. But if we place ourselves in a certain way in those locations, a clear view can be obtained. Also, I noticed that one of the people that have been working in the embassy as Olga Fedorov has been taking many irregular routes to get to his destination. But because he has been working there, there have been no questions about his behavior. I am sure that he is the spy, based on his route. Look closely, he stops near the Karlsplatz tram stop. After that, he is supposed to go south, but his registered house is a bit far away, and he needs to take a taxi, then go to the subway through the station of Taubstummengasse if he wants to reach his house. But he doesn't. He goes west. Now normally, you would think that he must be taking this route to go by taking a bus to Naschmarkt to buy some groceries, but he does this every single day, without fail. Naschmarkt is on a completely different route, which is a long detour, considering that he can directly use the train to reach his destination, which is Hungelbrunn. Coincidentally, Hotel Terminus isn't too far from Naschmarkt. Long story short, his detours every day don't make sense, and there is another person who is with him, not as a spy, but as a fake. That mysterious government official has already been ahead of us the entire time."

Alex took a deep breath. This was going to be hard, so he had to take action as soon as possible. Also, he isn't going to let anyone else plan around it. At this point, he had to take over.

"We will have to move fast. There might not be much time left."
