Cryptic Death

After Niko and David received a call informing them that the Scientist they were looking for was found dead, they rushed to the crime scene to see what CSI found.

Just when everything was beginning to look like all leads were closed, Xypher called Niko informing her that he followed a hunch he had, and looked closer at the code found on the victim, and asked if there was one found on the Scientist, because the code was consistent with the Cypto-currency protocol of addressing. He was able to collect the system info, logged in users, registry info, web activities and the most recent transactions that tied back to the Scientist. 

It seemed like the initial victim knew the Scientist had stumbled across a vial of blood and was extorting him for payment, and that's why he got killed. 

Xypher told Niko that if they could have access to the personal and or work computer Of the Pierce Corp. Scientist, they may be able to trace who else was Involved and who killed him, and possibly discover who the vial of blood belonged to, and why it was so important.

Niko was both excited and afraid that the evidence would trace back to Arthur and His origin. She had to call Gwen to let her know that the vial had been discovered as part of evidence and they

have to try to hide it, and Niko had to find a way to not make the vial such an important part of the investigation without obstruction.

Just then, David walked up behind her and asked if everything was ok, and Niko said yes

She let David know what Xypher told her; so they rushed back to the precinct.
