Chapter Twenty-Six

Raiden

It had been a week since I’d spoken to Scottie. Not knowing whether she was alive or dead was awful. I’d badgered Isla, but she refused to tell me anything, other than things were fine. I didn’t buy it. She bit her lip and chewed her nails constantly.

Acer was no help either.

“She asked me not to question her, so I don’t.” That was as much as I got out of him. “I know you’re worried, but all I can say is if something had gone wrong, you’d know it.”

That was true. Word would’ve spread through WI like a wildfire. My only option was to wait. And I wasn’t the guy who had patience for that.

“I’m tempted to go to—”

“You’re not going anywhere. I’ll tie you up and chain you to the bed if I have to. You’d only compromise the mission if you did.”

“Fine. I’ll sit and drink myself to death.”

“Not going to let that happen, either,” he came back at me. “Make yourself useful. Go invent some kind of software to prevent this thing.”

“What are you talking about?”

He met my gaze squarely. “Think about it. You have access to the dark web like the law enforcement agencies do.”

“Acer, everyone does.”

“Hear me out.”

One quick nod and he continued. “They need a centralized database on guys like O’Brien where everything is collated. It doesn’t exist. They have to beg Interpol, MI6, or the other agencies they can contact to get what they need. If there were a way to collect this data and deposit it in a file somewhere that our men could access when they needed it, it would be invaluable.”

“I can’t believe it doesn’t exist.”

“It does. Sort of. The FBI has files. The CIA has files. The local agencies have files. And then the international groups have their files, which causes a whole new set of headaches. Our guys should share, but they don’t. They have their heads up their asses and are too territorial about their info. We need a data scraper that pulls it all and deposits it in one place. Can you develop that?”

I pondered the question. “Yes, but, this is huge. Hacking into their systems would be part of it, and I’m not capable of that.”

“No, Huff is. If you develop something, how long would it take to scrape their systems?”

I shrugged. “Depends on how many files they have and how much information they store. Could take a few minutes or hours, which we can’t do.”

“Remember how we talked about doing the database on missing persons, this could work in the same capacity, except for organized crime.”

“Acer, I’ll see what I can grab through the dark web and with Cruze’s help. I can’t promise much because at this point we have our hands full.”

“Can I help? You can throw some things at me, or even teach me how to search deep in the dark web. Isla has shown me some things, but I’m not near as knowledgeable as she is.”

“You know… come to the office tomorrow and we’ll have a chat between us three.
