Chapter Twenty-Seven: Hostages

"Did you find anything?"

Nightwing kicked away a man lying at his feet and asked.

"The whereabouts of all the satellite network signals have been locked"

Batgirl said, looking at the computer screen on her desk.

The island is too far away from the mainland, and all signals are sent and received through the island's satellite equipment, which can be difficult for ordinary police officers to track, but for Batman, who has his own satellite network, it is much easier to track satellite signals than ordinary signals, and soon locks down most of the signals sent from this computer.

Most of the signals interact with Pisk, and occasionally they match some of the people in Nightwing's list that they stole from Chris's computer, but a very small number of them are missing.

These signals were not received by Pisk or the name of one of the individuals they expected, but by a fake IP address, and all that could be seen on the map according to the location of the address was a sea of sea.

“... Forehead.. The black manta ray also stuck in the leg? ”

Nightwing's self-conceived perfect cold humor doesn't get any response.

"All the data has been uploaded, now do you want to notify Sheriff Gordon?"

The darkroom of this office has stored a large number of servers, on which there is much more data than they imagined, and it contains almost all the transaction information from the beginning of this project to the present, the earliest record is two years ago, including the characteristics of all the children who were bought and sold, the list of buyers, the amount, etc....... The upload took a little longer than expected, and hopefully Gordon didn't get too impatient to wait.

With Batman's approval, Batgirl connected to Gordon's phone through the communicator, and Gordon, who had been waiting impatiently, immediately began to direct the landing after receiving the call.

“.... Should we be rejoicing? It's only been happening for two years."

As they expected, Pisk was originally just an ordinary small company, this kind of new IT company is born almost every day in the United States, but in the last two years, Pisk has developed by leaps and bounds, and soon grew from a small IT company to the current scale, and its customers include political and military circles. The industry involved has also changed from pure IT to all-round development of science and technology, and the rapid expansion of two years has naturally avoided a lot of negative news, and more than once it has been reported that the use of illegal means to forcibly merge and acquire potential small enterprises news, but these news are all gone in the end, which is enough to show how huge the power of Pisker Company is.

"Speaking of which, why did Batman let Himmler run?"

Batgirl asked a little strangely, in order to prevent the other party from destroying the evidence, Batman chose to face Himmler directly for the first time, but let him run away again.

“... No clues to the scarecrow found"

Nightwing glanced at Batman, who was standing in the middle of the house as a statue, and whispered to Batman, who didn't know what he was thinking.

Himmler is very hateful and a bastard, but the scarecrow is far superior to him in terms of danger, so Batman deliberately let Himmler go, and when he is cornered, Himmler will definitely ask the scarecrow for help, even if it is just a satellite phone for Batman, it is enough for Batman to find the scarecrow's current hideout.

"Note that the fight is good, but I think I still have a good chance of winning"

A voice came from the doorway, interrupting the dreary air in the room.

"If I were you, I wouldn't be reckless"

Seeing Nightwing and them move, Chris led a man out from behind him and lowered his head with a gun.

"Damn, I should have gone to him first"

After seeing the person who had been tied up in a cocoon by Chris, Nightwing said with some chagrin.

When he received a call from Gordon, Nightwing thought about going to Jason first, but the situation didn't give him much choice.

"I don't think Batman will watch his little assistant die."

Seeing that his threat seemed to be working, Chris was even more confident when he said:

"Destroy all the evidence you have, and let me go"

Chris made his own demands, and in fact he had already wanted to get out of this troubled water more than once in Himmler's increasingly crazy plans, and he couldn't let everything he had managed so hard to run be destroyed.

“... Are you an idiot?"

Jason, who was pointed at a gun in the head, suddenly spoke, and the thick sarcasm in his words made Nightwing involuntarily sweat for him.

"Huh?!"

"Use your brains and think, won't Robin grow up after all these years of following Batman?"

"What?"

"The one in the blue tights over there is the former Robin, and I'm just a gangster, it's useless for you to threaten them with me, they won't give up their achievements for a gangster"

"Shut up!"

Chris punched Jason in the face to stop him from talking, he knows what Jason says, but who cares? Whether or not the boy is related to Batman, at least his threat is effective.

When a person is cornered by fear, it is irrational, and even the slightest possibility, even the slightest possibility of infinite zero, will become hope in the eyes of those who are dominated by fear. Jason is well aware of this, but he doesn't think Batman will give up the fruits of his hard-won victory for him.

“... Yes"

To Jason's surprise, Batman actually agreed to this quid pro quo. People who run away can be caught, as for the destruction of evidence..... All the data has been uploaded to the satellite, and it doesn't matter if it's destroyed or not.

“... There is so much data that it takes some time to format"

Batgirl said cautiously.

"Don't play tricks on me, take it"

Chris took a USB drive out of his pocket and threw it on the ground, then continued:

"This is Himmler's newly developed virus, just connect it to the computer, and soon the entire disk will be scrapped, and even data recovery is impossible, it only takes a few seconds"

Nightwing cautiously walked over to the USB drive, calculating the distance.

"Don't play tricks! You don't have bullets fast! ”

Chris noticed Nightwing's small movements, and the sound of disassembling the safety of the gun was particularly harsh in the quiet environment.

Seeing that the scheme was uncovered, Nightwing had no choice but to pick up the USB drive and walk back to Batgirl.

“.... You go and tell the cops outside, I want a helicopter."

Seeing that after Batgirl plugged the USB drive into the computer, the pattern on the screen disappeared quickly like a collapsing pixel square, and Chris once again made a request to Batman....
