LCMR. Joe Gariabldi and CMDR Dais had had a long talk with Allso about the
hand and it's transport. He has cooperated to the best of his ability, and
that would work in his favor.
They had learned that the Bajorans would not try to use a courier again, but
would take the hand out themselves, and then dispose of it. That could not be
allowed to happen. They needed to id the owner of the hand, and to catch the
bad guys with it in their posession.
Additional research revealed that the Bajoran Chief of Staff was taking an
unexpected trip later in the day.
The two officers were talking in the privacy of the station XO's office just
off of OPS.
"So, Commander Dais we have come a long way in this little handy
investigation. My thoughts are to end this little thing as quickly as
possible. Perhaps if we jump on Rivik as he tries to leave. We do have the
rights to perform a safety inspection of his ship. All we have to do is to
wait until he is onboard and just out of dock. What do you think?"
