Raiden
It had been a week since Iâd spoken to Scottie. Not knowing whether she was alive or dead was awful. Iâd badgered Isla, but she refused to tell me anything, other than things were fine. I didnât buy it. She bit her lip and chewed her nails constantly.
Acer was no help either.
âShe asked me not to question her, so I donât.â That was as much as I got out of him. âI know youâre worried, but all I can say is if something had gone wrong, youâd know it.â
That was true. Word wouldâve spread through WI like a wildfire. My only option was to wait. And I wasnât the guy who had patience for that.
âIâm tempted to go toââ
âYouâre not going anywhere. Iâll tie you up and chain you to the bed if I have to. Youâd only compromise the mission if you did.â
âFine. Iâll sit and drink myself to death.â
âNot going to let that happen, either,â he came back at me. âMake yourself useful. Go invent some kind of software to prevent this thing.â
âWhat are you talking about?â
He met my gaze squarely. âThink about it. You have access to the dark web like the law enforcement agencies do.â
âAcer, everyone does.â
âHear me out.â
One quick nod and he continued. âThey need a centralized database on guys like OâBrien where everything is collated. It doesnât 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.â
âI canât believe it doesnât exist.â
âIt 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 donât. 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?â
I pondered the question. âYes, but, this is huge. Hacking into their systems would be part of it, and Iâm not capable of that.â
âNo, Huff is. If you develop something, how long would it take to scrape their systems?â
I shrugged. âDepends on how many files they have and how much information they store. Could take a few minutes or hours, which we canât do.â
âRemember how we talked about doing the database on missing persons, this could work in the same capacity, except for organized crime.â
âAcer, Iâll see what I can grab through the dark web and with Cruzeâs help. I canât promise much because at this point we have our hands full.â
âCan 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 Iâm not near as knowledgeable as she is.â
âYou know⦠come to the office tomorrow and weâll have a chat between us three.
