Alex stood there quietly, calmly, and yet as intimidatingly as possible before the motel manager, managing to not roll his eyes at the flattery he got, before getting a solid answer. Really, it was something he could do without. Respect was nice, and fear was good too, since both helped get the job done and made sure the law was served, but flattery? That was just a waste of his time.

"The Ultimatum thanks you for your help," he said, brushing past the man who sputtered out a 'Happy hunting?', moving instead to the center of the lobby. He should contact the Security personnel on the scene to confirm he had a lead, but he wanted to make sure first that Carton was here. So, in pursuit of his goal, he pulled out a case from his combo of robes and battle armor, much like a carrying case for pencils, yet so much more. It was part of the standard Justicar investigation kit, for hunting fugitives, and though somewhat expensive, it infinitely paid back for itself in terms of usage. 

He opened it to reveal dozens of tiny robots, each no bigger than a bee, with optical camera and sensors to investigate and locate targets, then track them once they had been found. The development of technology had allowed for the creation of autonomous drones that were incredibly small, with some rumored to be no bigger than dust granules. Sadly, the Justicars couldn't exactly afford equipment like that, but this was satisfactory in any case.

He flipped open the relevant program on his holopad, the case bursting into motion as the robots activated and rose, wings flapping like actual flies. He input the target information, that of Cole carton. They would find him, and follow him. "Go," he said aloud, and the drones flew away, into the air vents and down the halls, sweeping each room in turn before moving onto the next. As it were, their size would make them very much unnoticeable except for the very observant, and if he started to lose drones then Alex would have a very good indication that something was up anyway. 

He stood waiting patiently in the lobby, watching the various camera feeds from his holopad. Time to see if he could find his man.
