Glass and a tear. Pt. 0.4
[Intro] [low-frequency drone, mechanical whirring] [high-pitched digital beep] Good day, officers. Let's start our briefing. At 03:42 local time, a burned-out minivan was recovered from the bottom of the river. Vehicle identification was... inconclusive. Inside the wreck, a partially damaged data storage unit was retrieved. The drive contained fragmented audio logs. Most of the data was corrupted. However, one file was successfully reconstructed. The origin of the recording does not match the vehicle owner. Metadata traces lead to Lyte-Sec Corp. No official comment has been provided. What you are about to hear has not been included in the formal report. Off the record, it doesn't sound like an accident. Starting the playback.
