Finding the mysterious briefcase leaver

[_Swan_]

Just for fun I want to find the person who keeps leaving me the briefcases for side jobs around town, they all have the same fingerprints. Any ideas on how to go about this short of endlessly going through the gov database? I figure they are some kind of criminal middleman so have checked some underground businesses but no luck yet

I found a target by their prints by scanning doors in every building until I got them.

When this comes up, someone always suggests going through company records, but that seems to me like it'd be more work than scanning doors to.

More profitable, though, as offices generally have a fair bit of loot.

You can trace the phone call, the tutorial teaches you how.

I assume the phone call would lead to the job giver, which changes from job to job.

If the suitcase always has the same fingerprint, the implication is that there's some mysterious "professional briefcase leaver" that all the job posters hire.

As such, tracing the call probably wouldn't help, but I could be wrong.

The hand-off cases are the easiest one to track the handler.
But I never bothered scanning the suitcases.

Must be some type of loot-bunny.

you are correct, the phone calls come from various numbers, but the briefcases themselves always have the same fingerprints

I don't know about who leaves them, but I did break into the apartment I got told to deliver a package under the door of. It was creepy af. There was no-one in there except a gramophone playing music and then at some point someone came up behind me and instakilled me with a shotgun before I could see who they were. I reloaded and waited outside to see who was about to turn up, but no-one did, and so I went in and explored again and got the alert that there was someone entering the apartment. I hid under the bed immediately and then the person went away and I could find no trace of them, and I can't seem to get them to come back.
Whew.

For anyone curious I did manage to track the person down, in my game it was a black market doctor who apparently also has a side gig delivering suspicious briefcases of information.

That is pretty cool, very cinematic
