The mission: Your story in Chambéry

You received a weird letter from an anonymous person, called iSpy. 
As a well known collector, you're financially very rich. 

You're used to weird letters. But this one is different. 
This "iSpy", claims to be minimalist, and he wants to get rid of all his stuff. 

He searched for the right person, for a long time. 
He chose you to recover all of it! 

That's great news, but why ? You're the opposite of what he believes in. 

Will you accept the invitation ?
