 		Photos of the box contents are available here.

There is a letter and a drawing (with French text on the back). There is also a USB-stick with two sound files, but no Fragment ID?!

Let me know if you want higher res scans, I can do them at work in the morning. I'll transcribe the letters and sound files tomorrow too.

Like pretty much everyone who has found one of these boxes, I'm pretty impressed by the quality that has gone into creating these drops. Well done!

ETA: I uploaded some photos to Twitter during the 'hunt' @pliebgott, if anyone is interested.

Awesome danish! Are you sure about the fragment ID though? It looks like there is writing on the outside of the USB key, but you don't have any good shots of it.

Giving the sounds files a listen now.

Nothing there, just has 'OSS' printed on it.

 		Aha!

The Mechanic's tumblr has been updated: "Oh, and do not worry if a coded tag is not present within the fragment. Images will still be found here."

That explains that then!

 		Great work, danish! A very nice fragment retrieval and subsequent posting of the contents. Other than convenience, might there be any significance in having 2 drops in this general area?

 		Copenhagen fragment info
The Mechanic has posted the following:

The fragment, long suspended in the fabrics of space-time, has finally made it's way to it's final location. Copenhagen. I worry that this is all becoming unstable. Could this link between times be collapsing? I do not know.

What I do know, however, is this fragment's location. Unfortunately, it arrived beneath the Øresund, so I tasked my previously mentioned operative friend to retrieve it. He has done so, and has left it for you as a dead drop. It is not the most ideal location, but here are his instructions:

"Robert Jacobsen parking house on Richard Mortensens vej in Vest Amager. Will be found 2 meters above ground, in the small area made from concrete junction next to the elevators on the ground floor. You will need to stand on exit drive way to get a visual."

I do not know much about this location, so please be very safe and use caution.

 		I haven't found this parking structure on Google or Bing. The area seems to be recently developed with ongoing construction evident. Best of luck to danish with the fragment.

This is exciting! Ditto on no luck though. It must just be a parking garage for one of the apartment buildings/condos in that area.

Good luck danish!

 		Didn't see this yesterday - was out all evening. It's just down the road from work, however, so I'll go see if it's still there once my first meeting is over Smile

Hmmm... That definitely looks like where it's supposed to be based on the description. I really hope no one removed it over night. I assume you looked all around that side of the elevators? I doesn't say you need to see it from the exit, just the exit driveway.

 		Gave up and on my way home. I'm absolutely sure someone got to it before me, but it was the soonest I could get there Sad

Compared to the Malmø instructions, the instructions for this drop we're not very detailed (nor were they accurate - the street name was wrong, and it's the only parking structure in a 1-mile radius). This leads me to believe that the drop was not particularly well concealed.

We'll never know - butcross your fingers that the Mechanic has other ways to get the drop contents... Which reminds me: is it just me, or is it odd that the Mechanic hasn't uploaded his usual high-res photos? I have a feeling this is slowly stalling Sad

Yeah, I gave the place a pretty thorough search. No other elevators either.
