Flick
Flick didn't want to even think about what could transpire if soldiers wouldn't let them try as easily as they did. At least the road they were on finally was an actual road and that mean she could set up the laptop more or less normally.
She had hold back another snide comment about the triviality of the task J. had given her, but after looking at it she had to admit the road network didn't make sense. Well, it obviously made perfect sense for the local farmers, but if major highways to be excluded as J. wanted, even if it probably was unnecessary cautious, but whatever, the road network deteriorated into barely connected branches, disjointed path fragments of unknown quality. Perhaps exactly because of that it might indeed made sense to avoid highways, if the country was on high alert and looking for them as it seemed. However, the ground looked mostly solid, and their vehicles didn't require much of a road at all, if need be, so the only real issue was speed.
She was done quickly and gathering data about several properties indicated as their possible targets when a message popped up:
R3B1XX: hey did u fall out of your plane
R3DH3ll1A: something like that yes
R3B1XX: a bit strange idea for holidays
R3DH3ll1A: might say so
R3B1XX: anyway, there's the thing. Transfering data. Bird will be in position in less than 7 hours, every 14 hours then. Time to calibrate and all. Funny, some amateurs had played with it and failed to clean up. Put our puppy's noise to that trail, he may find it entertaining.
R3DH3ll1A: got it
R3B1XX: great feel free to call if anything
Entertaining satellite log files? Of course Flick had to look at that. History of small course adjustments and regular deep scanning wasn't all that interesting, and there was nothing about what they had seen. Working back through a network of proxies indicated Warsaw University of Technology as the first node, but it could go further from there. Still, some Warsaw students using abandoned russian satellite for training scans of Baltic sea area, kind of made sense.
