11

Michael von Keyserling introduces Siegfried Kircheis to retired Vice Admiral Christoph von Basel, who falsely claims recent arrival. Kircheis tails a suspicious man in a café, leading to an ambush in a flying ball court against five attackers. Superintendent Hoffmann’s police intervene, and Kircheis stops an assailant taking a civilian hostage. Hoffmann reveals the attacker belonged to a Keyserling Fleet supply unit once led by Basel, suggesting Basel orchestrated the attack due to thyoxin trafficking disputes. Seeking clarity, Kircheis asks for private investigation time. He confronts Keyserling, who admits to covering Basel’s involvement to protect Basel’s beloved wife, Johanna von Basel.
