This can be acquired in the Secret Tunnels in between Areas 14 and 17. You'll need to hit all five Trigger Blocks and then wait patiently for the exact moment to leap to the hardly visible moving platform. This all is best done with the Vector Cannon and its upgrade. There are five Trigger Blocks kind of hidden through out this area. You need to hit them all. The first one is directly above the first moving platform. Simply shoot it with the angled laser beams. Pay attention to the sound it makes when it is hit. On the next stationary platform, you can either attempt to drop off the edge and cling underneath this platform and shoot the second trigger block, or you can simply kneel and hit it with the vector cannon. You have to be in the correct spot, its near the middle-right of the platform.

After some swinging and vent climbing, you'll find yourself on a tall narrow vent next to some spikes. To the top left you should be able to see the third trigger block which can be hit with the vector cannon. Hop onto the vertically moving platform and then suspend yourself underneath it. At the bottom of its path you will see the forth trigger block to the left. shoot it with the shotgun then swing to the right and cling to the horizontal vent shaft.

Get out the vector cannon again and wait for the bottom-most platform to appear. Swing to it and quickly duck under the spikes it passes. Quickly stand and shoot the trigger block. You'll notice that there is a track for another moving platform to the far right of your bottom one. You need to wait until the fourth time your platform reaches the right to swing to it. This takes a lot of patience. Swing to this elusive platform and ride it to the far right. You'll need to time you leap off the side of it just right in order to cling onto a stationary platform to the farthest right. There you will find the Secret Dossier.
