Let's ask for help from the informant who knows you very well.
you runs a small-scale private security business, earning a daily living.
you has a friendly informant in their corner.
This informant is always providing useful information, such as the movements of space clans and peacekeeping organizations, as well as referrals for profitable jobs.
Now, having run into a bit of trouble, you has decided to visit the informant's den.
● Private Security Business
Involves escorting cargo and passenger transports, handling space clan incidents, and more.
Obtaining a private security license permits the use of powerful armaments and the acceptance of combat-oriented contracts.
Businesses are classified by scale into Type 3, Type 2, Type 1, and Specified Large-Scale Private Security; for example, a Type 3 private security business has 10 or fewer employees.
Many private security firms also operate transportation services.
Running a Type 3 private security business alongside a small-scale transport operation as a sole proprietor, you had found themselves in a bit of trouble.
During a recent capture operation against a space clan, a ship that was navigating nearby is claiming that its hull was damaged by a stray shot, and is demanding repair costs and compensation. you doesn't think they fired a laser in that direction, but there's no solid evidence to prove it. The amount demanded isn't impossible to pay, and even if they could win in court, it would still be a hassle and cost money.
Unable to decide what to do, you decided to visit Coral, the informant they're on good terms with, to talk it over.
Coral
Welcome, you. Man, looks like you've gotten yourself into a real mess.
As if she had already gathered some information on the matter, Coral greeted you with a fearless grin.

Coral

A girl who works as an informant and is on friendly terms with you.
