Mission:Melvin and the Mysterious Malta Group - Evict the Malta agents from an abandoned building

Evict the Malta agents from an abandoned building

Briefing

While you were rescuing Lester Chesterford from the Malta Group, another cell of Malta agents occupied an abandoned building. Their exact intentions are unknown, but I'm sure they're up to no good. Character, I think it would be a good idea to evict the Malta agents from that building, and maybe find out what they were doing there.

• Evict the Malta agents from an abandoned building

I suspect that whatever they're doing in there involves the continuing clean-up operation around Melvin Langley, but I can't say for sure. All your really need to do is defeat all of the Malta agents there, but if you look around you might find some interesting information.

Unnecessary Solicitation

Mission Objective(s)

This office has been left unused for some time. Its decorations were once expensive and sumptuous, but have fallen into disrepair.

• Defeat all Malta agents in building
  • Look for clues

You defeated the Malta agents in the old office. Afterwards, you found several files on defeated agents that they hadn't had time to destroy.

A painting entitled 'Gentlemen of Malta'

This largish painting depicts a group of 17 serious looking older men around a conference table in a darkened room. A seal of a black bird of prey is visible on the table. You recognize the face of Roger Vrabel, the head of the CIA's Titan program, as well as Neil McIntosh, the head of England's 60's era MI6 meta-human program. Other men in the painting appear to be members of western intelligence agencies from most of the NATO countries of the era. The artist did not sign the painting, but it has been dated in May of 1967.

A paper trail

You found these documents in an old office that had been taken over by Malta troops. The Malta Group agents were in the process of destroying them when you broke in. Though yellowed with age, water stained, scattered, crumpled, and torn, these documents look like business ledgers. Your examination reveals that these papers might trace the illegal movement of vast sums of money, as it was siphoned off from several major governments during the latter part of the 1960's. Where this money might have gone, the papers do not say.

Debriefing

You found some very interesting things, I can see why Malta would want to make sure they were all destroyed. It would almost seem like they were embezzling funds from a dozen different intelligence agencies. Maybe they still are.

I know, I know, I'm being mysterious again. Sorry. You'll just have to trust me. I can't promise that this will all be clear in the end, but it might be less obscure.
