Offr.com: What's it worth?
"Most people know Offr.com as the home of the gig economy: a website where you can find a buyer for your old couch, and a worker to haul it away. It’s the home of everything from marketplace goods and bespoke commissions to task fulfillment and transportation services. Some whisper about less-than-legal deals being available on a 'dark web' version of Offr.com. The company denies these claims."
Sooner or later, all Contractors receive an invitation to join Offr Red, the secret membership tier. Offr Red members gain access to exclusive high-confidence, anonymous services. They can sell extraordinary items to Offr or put them up for auction for other Offr Red members to bid on. Crafty Contractors rejoice!
On rare occasions, Offr can even make deals to tie up pesky Loose Ends. However, they always demand a special favor in return.

Ticket to hyperspace
Looks like a crack pipe to me...
The glass tube with the bulb in the end seems caked with blackish blue resin and tar, but no drug material is needed neccesarily. Applying flame and taking a deep hit, instantly explodes the user's consciousness to encompass the range of the effect. They are one with the energy in all things briefly, before it abruptly collapses back again like a bubble popping, leaving them drooling and euphoric.
As the user's senses come back around, they are able to walk and speak within moments, and more or less ignore the related hallucinations that continue for quite a while afterwards (stumbling around and distracted as if exhausted).
The information overload takes time to sort through, but comes as an 'aha! It all makes sense now!' moment at the end of the casting time.

Exhibit 1: Scene of the crime
So, tell me about this place.
Oleander is well-versed in good study habits. As he investigates a place, he verbally describes each little detail that he sees, and that helps him make sense of what he's seeing; it might even gain him some new insight on this scene.
On places:
Oleander has traveled to many places in his lifetime for his job, yet he still has so much left to learn about the world at large. Now it's bigger than ever. He doesn't know how to feel about that yet.
On yapping:
Being restricted on the grounds of keeping up his reputation has left him deeply unsatisfied whenever he exists in silence. He'll yap to people and plants and even inanimate structures. He'll start talking to himself if he must; it's a good studying habit anyway. Oleander needs all he can to study the cases he's working on. He can't let a single detail escape him in court.
On information:
The internet is a vast place, and he often uses it to go down rabbitholes because of a related subject in a case. He'll always watch timelapses as a way to calm down, and this has inevitably led to more familiarity with how various things age over time.
