Chapter 418: Old Footage
Ryker Heights. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
The villa is built on a slope, with a view of the green fields and bright flowers from the windows of the second-floor bedrooms, and surrounded by green trees on the other side, making it a great place to stay for a business trip.
Due to the fact that there are often distinguished guests renting villas, the burglar-proof work of the house is certainly more than one grade higher than that of ordinary hotels. The security door is equipped with a double lock, and under the floor of the corridor under the eaves outside the door hides the motion sensors installed by the current quirky tenant of the house.
But even that doesn't keep everyone out.
Roy walked softly through the shadow of the moon cast onto the ground through the window, more gently than a night owl. The layers of protective equipment outside the door were nothing more than a minor minute or two for him to sneak in.
The moonlight shrouded the living room like a curtain, and the orange electric light shone through the screen. With a dart in one hand, Roy cautiously swirled around the screen, the angle of which ensured that he could use the screen to cover all kinds of incoming assaults.
Behind the screen, a brown leather sofa sits by the window, and a small table rests on the side. David Cain was hanging his son on the couch, clutching a half-empty bottle of beer.
Roy gently put away the batrang.
"Yo, here we go." Cain didn't seem surprised to see the Winged Knight appear in his villa, as if he were greeting a friend who came to visit him.
"David Cain, the top assassin of the League of Assassins, is an internationally wanted man with multiple murder charges." Roy said, "You killed ****." ”
"The drug dealer? Ha, to be honest I don't even know his name. is worth that kind of third-rate character, and it's not my turn to kill. Cain took another sip of beer and said, "But you're missing a little, boy, I'm still the girl's father." ”
"You're from a tape, aren't you?" Roy asked, "You want to get that tape to blackmail Kasan back to you?" If that's what you're thinking, give up before it's too late. Now she doesn't resemble you in the slightest. ”
Cain froze.
He slammed the beer bottle down on the table beside him and laughed.
"So that's your conclusion? I want to threaten her with a videotape to come back to me? He snorted, "She was raised by me, who do you think she can be like again?" If you think I need that tape for something like this, you can go over there and check it out. ”
As he spoke, he pointed in the direction of the bedroom: "I have a dozen of her videos from childhood to adulthood, and I don't lack that one at all." I wanted it because if that video was exposed to the police or someone else, it would probably ruin the best work of my life. ”
"So you want to say you're protecting her?"
"You can understand it that way." Cain rose limp from the couch and walked towards the bedroom, "If you don't believe me, come and see for yourself." I still have a lot of videotapes. ”
The old-fashioned projector reads out the footage, and the black-and-white image is projected onto the screen as the gears rotate.
Kassandra, who seemed to be only five or six years old, and David Cain, who looked quite young at the time, knocked the frail child to the ground head-on, and shouted in a majestic and unquestioning tone: "You should have expected that punch, this will not work!" Again! ”
The child bit his lip, did not cry his nose, got up strongly, and rushed up again.
"She's incredible." David Cain looked at the screen and said, "I've tried to raise many children, and she's the only one that has succeeded." She has never let me down and has always met my expectations and requirements, even if some of them are incredible to me. ”
"Another killer, Meksen Toth, is coming to Gotham, and the target is **** too." Roy asked lightly, "You hired him?" ”
"Uh-huh." Cain took another sip of wine, "I thought I wouldn't need to do it myself, but it seems like I'm overestimating some of the waste's abilities, so in the end I decided to do it myself." But now that I'm sure the footage is in your hands, I don't care, I know you're not going to expose it. ”
Roy was silent.
The video continues to show, documenting Kassandra's various stages of age, like a complete record of a father's footsteps to his daughter's upbringing. They saw seven-year-old Kasan single-handedly knock over six strong men with guns, 10-year-old cheered when she first fought with her father and was praised by him, and at the age of 12 she successfully hit a heart 100 meters away with an M24 sniper rifle for the first time.
"See?" Cain smirked, "She was a perfect work, without a single blemish." ”
"So that's what you see? Just a perfect piece? Roy said coldly, "What I see is a girl who needs a father. ”
Cain's face sank: "I don't need a daughter, detective, what I need is a warrior." ”
At this point, the girl in the picture has grown into a girl, sitting alone in an empty room with four walls, dangling the blade of a knife on one finger, as if it were some kind of game.
David Cain appears silently behind her, pulling out a silent pistol with a silencer.
Without mercy, he pulled the trigger, and two rubber bullets whizzed into Kassandra's back, and the painful Kasan came to her senses, jumped back without looking back, perfectly dodging the next few bullets, and swept Cain down with a volley of legs in the face.
"You shot her from behind." Roy glared at Cain, "What's the point of doing this?" ”
Cain turned off the video and walked outside: "Tell her to be on her toes at all times. A child is like an animal, and this will help her remember it well...... You have to admit that it works, doesn't it? ”
"Batman once mentioned that he admitted that you were quite talented at coaching." "But all you did was abuse her." ”
"Oh, that's what you see?" Cain picked up the glass again, "Well, it really can't be entirely attributed to me, either. I've tried it on a lot of other kids, but it didn't work. Only she, as if she had always known what to do, knew what I wanted from her. ”
Cain sighed, "It was my mistake." Her First Killing...... Got her almost broken, she wasn't ready, so she left me. It's my fault. ”
After a pause, he turned to ask, "What, now are you going to arrest me or what?" ”
"Nope." Roy clenched his fists, "I'm here to make you want me to do that." (To be continued.) )
