The three of them were sitting in the SUV looking at a monitor that had ejected from the dash after Casey had punched in the code.
"But how could we have missed something this big?" Sarah asked.
"It was thought to be an urban myth of sorts, kind of like Bigfoot. Everyone tries to catch it but the evidence keeps coming out as inconclusive." Casey said.
"We've heard of rumors that WMDs were being auctioned, but never really confirmed. The old Intersect never gave us any reason to be alarmed at any level of the Agency," General Beckman stated.
"But it's the Intersect's job to detect that. It had all of the files of both the NSA and the CIA," Casey spoke, a little confused.
Chuck leaned his head in from the backseat between Sarah and Casey, "Research began in the 1970s trying to find a way to implant brain-computer interface in humans. BCI is a direct communication pathway between the brain and an external device. Two-way BCIs would allow brains and external devices to exchange information in both directions but have yet to be successful in…"
"You're speaking 'NERD'…" Casey interjected
"Basically, the old Intersect was a two-way BCI. But my brain has a better interface: I can connect the dots instead of waiting for them to connect themselves. This old noggin' has a higher level of thinking," Chuck finished tapping his forehead once again.
"You sure about that?" Casey asked.
"Did you flash?" Sarah asked, a little confused on how he had all this information.
"No, I read up on it. And… It's the premise of Krrish. It's India's version of Superman but along with saving the universe, he also aces IQ tests," Chuck responds with a cheesy smile.
Casey rolled his eyes, "Can we get back to the Russians now?"
"Your mission is to find out how the actual exchange will take place. Then we'll use that Intel to intercept the packages and apprehend both the buyers and the sellers. Agent Casey will pose as a cocktail server to allow for access in restricted areas, while Mr. Bartowski and Agent Walker will pose as potential buyers at the auction" Beckman said, looking at all three of them.
"Find out which groups are there, get in their inner circle and gather as much Intel on their pecking order as you can," General Beckman ordered, "I want to bring down as many people as possible. Is that clear?"
Casey opened the files he had received by NSA courier just minutes before the meeting. And started to read through them.
"Yes, General," Casey and Sarah replied right before the General signed off.
"So we'll be partners in crime… leaders of a mafia syndicate" Chuck said looking at Sarah "It's gonna be pretty cool playing a bad guy."
"Well you are... Agent Walker on the other hand..." Casey dropped the open file on Sarah's lap. Her eyebrows shot up after reading the notes.
"… is going to be your courtesan."
Chuck's jaw dropped to the floor.
