Jiuyuan

192

After retiring from her previous job, Jiuyuan settled into a fairly relaxed life at Sterry. The day-to-day tasks aren't complicated: sending and receiving packages, checking receipts, and passing around clipboards for signatures... As long as the process is clear and the staff reliable, none of the tasks pose much of a challenge. The real headaches come from commissions that can't be handled through any standard procedures: those involving intel, Anomalies, and the Anomaly Hunters who handle them. Clients with hidden agendas tapping their fingers on the counter, buyers using Anomalies as cover for covert handoffs, clients falsifying danger levels to drag Sterry into their schemes, not to mention the tangled web of factions at play... These may not seem a big deal, yet calculated troubles are far more vexing than any package delivery. Still, Jiuyuan handles them all with ease. One moment she's making small talk with a contact at a banquet hall, and the next she's at the scene of a target's transaction, tidying up the mess. She never breaks a sweat, and leaves only the cool scent of roses in her wake. With her intel and finesse, she has quietly woven a web across the fabric of this city. Most ripples, no matter how faint, inevitably land in it.
