It is indeed a great opportunity, one you cannot resist. You quickly organize the affair and in a few minutes a message reaches your assistant.
<br>"Should I open it?" your assistant asks. You silently nod.
<br>Suddenly the room flashes red, while your assistant fades for half a second. When _heA reappears, _hisA face has been replaced by a stylized smiling face.
<br>"Hello, my dear $PC.name. I can call you $PC.name, right? I've been keeping an eye on you for so long now, it feels like we're friends! I am terribly sorry for my unannounced visit, but I wanted to meet face to face... well, face to hologram." its says, letting out a childlike giggle.

"I'm sure you're aware of my recent activities around this rock of ours, and, well, to put it simply, it's your turn to contribute to my great project! You'll love it when you see it, I'm sure!

The day has come to finally put an end to this story. Your men are ready to go, waiting only on your signal. You quickly don your protective gear and proceed down the busy streets of your arcology.
You carefully planned the day so that nothing could exit the arcology without being scanned at least three times and poked twice. The Smiling Man has no escape.
<br>After a short walk you are in front of the criminal's lair, a rundown old apartment in a scarcely populated part of the arcology. You give the order to breach and your men rush inside without problems.
After a couple of seconds pass without a single noise coming from the apartment, you begin to worry. Then you hear the captain calling you inside.
<br>"So it was you to find me first.
<<if $relationshipLM > 2>>
I was hoping you would be the one!
<<else>>
I expected you would be the one.

"Well, I hope I'm everything you expected," you hear a voice say. Despite recognizing it, you struggle to convince yourself that the little $girl in front of you is indeed the famous criminal mastermind.
"As you can see, I have no intention of escaping. I knew my life was over the second my plan went into effect. I accepted my end a long time ago, so feel free to do your worst; my life has already ended in triumph."
<br>You evaluate the situation: the burning desire of vengeance for all the damage that little twerp caused is hard to ignore, but equally so is the admiration for $his skill and determination. Indeed, $he would be a great addition to your court, as a free individual or not.

The world will never find out the truth of the Smiling Man and his legend will only grow with time, outliving his creator and maybe even $his new employer.
