The Curator's Exit - Part 3

> CHALLENGE DESCRIPTION

Our friend was planning their last big score, any idea where?

FLAG FORMAT: CIT{City_Country}

> METHODOLOGY

1. Re-visiting the X Account In the first part of this series, while tracing the vitrinefox alias, I found their X (Twitter) profile. They had a single post with the caption "Post score = Vacation Mode Activated" and a photo of a stone building. While it was a dead end for finding their name earlier, it is the exact puzzle piece needed for this challenge.

2. Reverse Image Search & Geolocation Extracting the image from the X post, I ran it through a reverse image search. The visual matches immediately identified the architecture and stone courtyard as the famous birthplace of Leonardo da Vinci.

A quick geographical search for this historical site confirms it is located in the small hamlet of Anchiano, Italy.
