Head to Veena Kalra's office and meet Masako. She, Veena, and Camden will give you the details for your next assignment as you wait for Dalton to finish analyzing the evidence and making the report.
Depending on whether you chose to do Nyx's favor during Background Checks, Camden will not be present in the meeting with Masako and Veena.
Travel to Carinae III-A to secure the shipment mentioned by Masako and Veena. You can find it in Eta Cassiopeia Star System.
Land at CM Station RC-1 and enter the CM Station RC-1 Mine. You can follow the quest marker to navigate through the sandstorm easily.
You will encounter a lot of Ecliptic Agents inside the station and mine; defeat them and proceed with the quest.
Use the lift to travel further down. Access the CM Station computer, select Shipments, and read the Ryujin Industries [Canceled] to learn what happened on the Rothicite Shipment.
Follow and kill the Ecliptic Operator nearby. Loot his body after and read the contract from your inventory under Notes. You will see a bunch of sources where the shipment might have gone.
Head to the clinic in the Narion System mentioned in the contract. You can enter the clinic by docking your ship.
Head to the restricted area being watched by a Freestar Guard. You can persuade him (6 Bars) to let you inside. If you fail the persuasion, you can pay 2500 Credits or lie to him to get through.
You will see Sean and Dr. Lane in a room after getting inside. Speak to them and lie about Infinity LTD sending you. If you also invested skill points in medicine, you can blackmail Dr. Lane and his colleagues to gain access to retrieve the shipment and his computer.
Check Dr. Lane's computer and look at the Project Dominion. Read through all the files under that folder to progress. You can also read other folders and report it back to Masako.
After that, grab the Rothicite Shipment on a table near the window.
Go back to Veena's office and give her the shipment. She will be overjoyed and immediately start working with it.
Masako will ask you about your investigation at the CM Station RC-1. Tell her everything that happened to finish the quest.
Depending on your choices during the Guilty Parties quest, either Sabotage or Managing Assets quests will be unlocked after this.
