Chapter 416: The Tailgator
Barbara realized the seriousness of the problem: "So let's destroy it now?" ā
"Don't worry, let's keep it for now, what I just said is just subjective speculation. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć "It's not clear if David Cain wanted the tape or for what purpose. Plus, we don't even know how much of this tape is authentic. ā
Barbara was stunned: "You mean ......"
"Tapes can be faked, and the authenticity can easily fool the naked eye." Roy said, "I need you to test it." ā
Barbara nodded, took the tape and took it to her room.
"Digital processing will definitely degrade the quality of the video, and we are able to monitor the completeness of the footage, and anything below 50% will be proven to be fake."
She didn't stop talking for a moment, and the computer quickly read the contents of the tape, and a bright red line of "Processing" appeared in the upper left corner of the screen.
After more than a minute of waiting, the results were in, and the percentage of bright red was frozen in the upper left corner of the screen.
51%ć
The two were silent for a long time.
"Perhaps...... 51% can prove some of the same problems. Barbara said as optimistically as possible, "What else can explain this threshold problem?" ā
"Pinhole camera, footage from 10 years ago." Roy cupped his chin and said, "It's similar to the result of digitization." ā
With that, he got up and walked out the door.
"Where are you going?" Barbara asked.
Roy said: "The name of the man who was killed in the picture was Fazur, and he happened to be temporarily living in Gotham when he was killed, acting as an intermediary in a certain transaction. According to available case files, the cause of his death was a 'massive neck trauma', but the autopsy report disappeared a week after it was filed. ā
Barbara frowned, "Someone deliberately erased this. ā
"Yes." "But I got the coroner's name, John Brinton, and my gut told me he might have a copy of the autopsy report in his head, so I was going to visit him directly and see if I could find anything." ā
The moment he reached the door, the bathroom door opened. Kassandra stepped out of the bathroom with white vapor wrapped in a bath towel. When she saw Roy, she asked curiously, "Where to go?" ā
Roy smiled: "It's just a private matter, it's no big deal, I'll be back soon." ā
Kassandra nodded, smiling equally and waving her hand, "Let's go." ā
In the middle of the night, Gotham receives a pouring rain without warning. It was as if God's reservoir had burst its banks, and the flood water poured down like madness, crashing on the concrete floor.
John Brinton thinks he's been out of luck today. Because of the newly transported corpses, he had to work overtime to get to this point, and the moment he went out, it suddenly began to rain heavily, drenching him into a soup chicken. Through the 800-degree myopia of waterfall-like water, he struggled to find his car, and then scrambled to find the keys in his pocket.
"John Brinton."
A deep voice sounded from behind him, startling him.
Turning his head, he saw that the Winged Knight was already standing in the middle of the rain, and the rain was flowing down the tip of the nose of his mask.
"You?" Brinton nervously stepped back, "You...... What do you want? ā
"Ten years ago, a man named Fazur was killed in Gotham." Roy said lightly, "You are the coroner in charge at the time. ā
"I've been doing this for more than ten years, and I can't remember exactly how many corpses I've examined." He said nervously, "How can I remember the case from ten years ago?" ā
"No, you remember." Roy took a step forward, and the mask looked even more hideous and terrifying in the rain, "because this case is different." Don't try to lie, I can tell. Fazur died of a 'massive neck trauma' and disappeared a week after the post-mortem report was filed. It's very strange, I know. There's got to be something in there, and you know. So don't force me to force you to tell me with strong force. ā
Brinton felt a chill on his back, whether it was rain or cold sweat, or both.
"I ...... I can't. "You don't understand, he forced me to swear." He threatened me and told me that I would never be able to bring up the slightest detail about the case...... You don't understand, I still have a family to take care of, and I can only accept this condition. Now that it's been ten years, don't mention it anymore, let it pass. ā
With that, he reached for the car door.
Roy grabbed his hand and said in a deep voice, "Maybe ten years have passed, but it's not over yet. Now, the information you have can influence the course of a girl's life, and even ten years won't be enough to put her to sleep. ā
Brinton sighed softly.
"Okay, follow me. I've actually kept a backup in the office all the time...... I have a hunch that such a day may come. "Over the years, I've thought about it in my sleep...... Maybe that's my best chance of getting rid of it. ā
Ten minutes later, Roy was leaping between the rooftops and communicating with Barbara.
"How's it going?" Barbara asked.
Roy replied, "Not optimistic. I got a copy of the autopsy report, and Fazur's neck wound was indeed scratched open by the hand of a girl less than the size of 10 years old. ā
"That's terrible."
"Yes." Roy said, "Now the final question is, what did David Cain want to do when he came to Gotham this time?" I need your help me look for Cain's tracks in airports and other public surveillance to see if I can find any clues as to where he is. ā
"Got it." Barbara said, pausing, "But you also know that Cain is an old fritter, and it's not easy to find his traces. ā
"I know, but we can only try." Roy said, "Hang up first, I still have a few tails to flick here." ā
With that, he jumped straight down from the edge of the roof at his feet.
Two ninjas dressed in black appeared out of nowhere, and hurried to the edge where Roy had just jumped and looked down, but there was no trace of him.
In the midst of the rain, silently, the Winged Knight appeared behind them.
The two hurriedly drew their knives, but it was too late. Roy's move was extremely fast, and his movements were unobtrusive, and the three moves of "Huhu" wrapped in the wind and dragging the rain led to the two Assassins' defenses in an instant, knocking them to the ground one after another.
Roy mentioned one person and asked coldly, "Assassin Alliance?" What are your leaders thinking about this time? ā
The man felt like he was dead, and he didn't say a word.
Roy raised his voice: "Speak!" ā
At this time, a voice of response came from behind him: "If you have dealt with the Alliance enough, you should understand that they will never be able to give an account of a word that I will not let them account. ā
Roy turned around, and saw that the bishop, who had already put on the cloak and armor that belonged to Lei Xiaogu, also quietly appeared in the rain, looking at him with a smile that seemed contemptuous but also seemed to approve.
"Long time no see." The bishop greeted. (To be continued.) )
