Crossbill lays out the plan. You’ll infiltrate as part of the Cooking Staff. The gist of it is that you have a spot secured through one of the important guests (an ally of hers), you’ll act as his personal chef who keeps his allergies in check. You have the skills to pull the charade in case your competency is in question. You’ll have to find a window of time to scout the interior. Two spots on the map seem likely to be the ones where the scroll is being held.

Once you determine where the scroll is being held, Crossbill will look out for potential traps in the area to smooth things over for later. She’ll be outside. Don’t be afraid of relying on Crossbill in case you need anything!

You have been provided a chef costume. It’s far from Johnnini tier, which disappoints you.

First, you’ll meet with your ally: Ryom Ji-Haw. He’s the owner of a couple of diners loosely affiliated with the mafia, but his true claim to fame is his ownership of the most popular online gambling app in the country. He’s a big foodie and a competent fighter. He’s helping out because he doesn’t want his business under the Youhao’s umbrella, but can’t refuse without being offed.

“That’s what she said about me? She always puts me in the best light…” Ryom sarcastically says. He’s not an impressive figure, he’s kinda too chill for his own good. You’re standing a couple of streets away from your destination. Like literally, you’re not in a car or anything. “She could’ve told you how we met! I’m not a full-time scumbag!” Oh, he has a tiny outburst!

“That’s not really relevant, isn’t it?” You’d love to know, but there’s no time, probably.

“Guess you’re right... You don’t want to have reasons to trust the guy you need to trust…” Ryom sighs. “We got time to kill. I told ‘em I’d arrive in 20 minutes.”

“Then tell me, I guess.” You won’t please.

“You’re hurting me here with your indifference… A bullet through the heart…” Ryom takes it humorously. “We both were against overfishing in my area and met in a protest. Couldn’t let the fishies disappear, else, I’ll lose the best cuisine there is. These companies don’t know when to stop. From there, our friendship blossomed when we achieved our objective hand in hand. Beautiful, isn’t it?”

“That’s barely a story...” You feel like if he says more, he’ll look in a bad light.

“Is your story much better? Hmm? Can I hear it?” Ryom is interested.

“I'd rather hear the specifics of the deed. Crossbill said you’ll brief me.” You sound a little apologetic.
