[[caption-width-right:350:'''Chief Ripley:''' [[TemptingFate This USStay versus USNay debate has been stained with blood, and we cannot allow a member of the Unified Nations to be killed on our watch!]]]]
The Bureau goes to Big Lake in Alaska, U.S., to accompany and protect Unified Nations representative Niilo Virtanen, who was supposed to perform an inspection in a weapons factory. There, Jack decides to dress up as Niilo and attend the inspection in his place while he stays in a chalet, but things unexpectedly go awry when Jack gets shot in the chest at the factory while Niilo gets killed while taking a bath in his room.
!!Tropes:
*AbsurdlyLongWait: Leila Malak tells you it will take about ''six months'' for her to inform the Unified Nations about SOMBRA, since she has to follow strict protocol about how things are dealt with.
*AssassinOutclassin: Horribly {{Subverted}}. After Jack gets hospitalized from his gunshot wound, it appears that at least you managed to protect Niilo from getting assassinated in the weapons factory, only for Ingrid to immediately deliver you the bad news about Niilo's death.
*AssassinationAttempt: Niilo Virtanen successfully gets assassinated by SOMBRA as part of their ploy to intensify the tension between the United States and the Unified Nations.
*AttackDrone: The victim was killed by being shot with a remote-controlled rifle that was being controlled by his killer while they were in the weapons factory personally shooting Jack.
*BeleagueredAssistant: Agrafena explains how she was nothing more than a gloried errand girl for Niilo than the senior assistant she's supposed to be, which made her regret getting a job as part of the Unified Nations since they didn't fight for the causes she wanted.
*BodyguardBetrayal: Niilo was murdered by Joel Heller, his own bodyguard, who had infiltrated the Unified Nations as a SOMBRA agent with the purpose of creating discord between the UN and the US.
*BoomHeadshot: How the victim was killed.
*TheBusCameBack: Agrafena Raskolnikova, who hadn't appeared since [[Recap/CriminalCaseWorldEditionCase18CountdownToMurder Case 18]], makes a return here as the victim's assistant.
*CassandraTruth: Leila Malak, the high commissioner from the Unified Nations who demands answers about Niilo's death, finds hard to believe the existence of SOMBRA since all of your fights against them have been mostly kept secret from other organizations.
-->'''Leila:''' So you're claiming that one of the top security agents at the UN was actually working for a criminal organization? I'm sorry, I don't buy that.
*CheatedDeathDiedAnyway: Just when it appeared that Niilo had evaded an assassination attempt after Jack got shot in his place, he ends up dying anyway due to the killer already knowing about the switche and using an AttackDrone to murder him from afar.
*ClassicalHunter: Maniitok Jones, an Alaskan native who likes to remind you that he's just a hunter and nothing else.
-->'''Maniitok:''' But I only kill for food and furs. Seals, whale, caribou... you know, food! I told you, I am a hunter.
*ColdSniper: The killer was present at the weapons factory to shot Jack from afar with a sniper rifle while also commanding a remote-controlled rifle to kill Niilo.
*ConspiracyTheorist: Travis Quaid, a radio show host you meet as a suspect here, is convinced that Niilo was visiting Alaska for more than an inspection at the weapons factory and accuses the Bureau of "hiding the truth". [[TheCuckoolanderWasRight Not that he's entirely wrong.]]

**Jonah remembers how Agrafena [[Recap/CriminalCaseWorldEditionCase16FastTrackToMurder built a bomb in Russia]] after you find another one in her belongings.

*ADayInTheLimelight: Jonah takes the spotlight in this case by accompanying you to the weapons factory with Jack in Chapter 1, becoming your partner for the entirety of Chapter 2, and helping you some more during the Additional Investigation.
*DeadlyBath: Niilo was killed while taking a jacuzzi bath in his chalet room.
*DecoyGetaway: While being killed in his place wasn't exactly part of Jack's plan, he still gets shot with a bullet supposedly aimed at Niilo in the weapons factory, though it doesn't manage to do anything as Niilo still gets murdered by other means.
*DesperatelyLookingForAPurposeInLife: Agrafena tells you that the reason why she decided to work for the Unified Nations was because she was looking for some way to change the world after her protests back in Russia failed to do so.
*DidntSeeThatComing: Turns out that informing Niilo's bodyguard about the plan of keeping him safe by sending Jack to the factory in his place was flawed from the very beginning, as said bodyguard was working for SOMBRA in the first place.
*DivideAndConquer: As it turns out, SOMBRA's plan of killing a UN representative in US soil was aimed at creating discord between both entities and put them against each other for this exact reason.

*NotHisBlood: During the investigation, you find the victim's t-shirt covered in blood, but an analysis reveals that it actually belongs to seals. As it turns out, Maniitok threw it at him due to Niilo and the Unified Nations wanting to ban the hunting of seals, which Maniitok saw as an attack against his people.
