They give me the edge I need to stay ahead of the game. The word on the badge read THE SYNDICATE. Not for nuttin' But I think I'm in some serious trouble here.

With THE SYNDICATE and the scarecrow to follow up I felt awash with new enthusiasm for the case. Though I always knew I'd find a way, I always do. THE SYNDICATE isn't gonna be listed in any publicly available directory. So I went to meet one of my contacts in the park to try and find out all I could about THE SYNDICATE.

I call him the bird tamer. I consider him to be the best in his field as his methods are second to none and he's never wrong. I've never actually met him in person. He communicates to me through trained birds who peck at the ground in code. It's always best to give the pigeons somethin' to peck at to avoid suspicion. So I broke out some bread and showered the ground in front of my bench with crumbs. As punctual as ever, one of his flock landed at my feet awaiting instructions. I simply asked it who THE SYNDICATE were. Often I wonder how the bird-tamer hears my questions, but that's none of my business and it's certainly none of yours.
