companion ghost

At 12:10 New York time, the confrontation began.

The police have emptied all the residents on this street, fearing accidental collateral damage, and now the house where Lisman lives is surrounded by police officers and police cars.

In the room, the veins on Lisman's neck burst out. He clenched his fists and stared at a small crack in the curtain.

Victor was working on a computer to contact someone who could help them escape to Bosnia, but he couldn't get in touch because there was no signal. He was so impatient that he punched the table hard.

At this time, Casey heard Ridino's voice in the microphone: "You turn the camera on that Victor so I can see his face."

Casey glanced at Lisman, who was still looking out of the window, and moved cautiously. The little girl Selyse he was protecting gave him a strange look, and he quickly made a gesture of silencing her, slowly Slowly moved the camera from Victor's profile to the front.

Emma from the technical department and several other police officers from the technical department received Victor's facial image, and they were rummaging through the database with their fingers flying.

With a sudden ding, Emma quickly called Jerry over. Jerry took a closer look, made a few phone calls, printed out the information, and went to find Dino and Auston.

"Captain! Dino!"

Jerry saw Oston and Dino who were talking, and gave them a piece of information about Victor: "Victor Besson, originally a hacker, later became a small boss under Lisman, Lisman was imprisoned for two years for illegal possession and trading of drugs. Lisman escaped from prison in the second month of his release. His family has a mother and a daughter, all living on the money Lisman gave. "

Dino reached out to take the paper, glanced at it, and said, "Can we find Victor's mother and daughter now?"

Jerry blinked: "Maybe we'll be at their house in 10 minutes."

Auston punched Jerry lightly: "When will you stop surprising me?"

Jerry laughed; "If one day you don't throw me out of the group."

At this time, Emma also rushed over: "Jerry asked me to investigate Lisman's contact with the outside world when he was in prison. Talk to an IP address, this IP address often changes between the various triangle towers, but because there are rules to follow and some parameters are the same, it can be determined that it is a—”

Auston waved his hand: "Simple."

Emma followed suit: "I found the IP address of the organization Lisman said could send him to Bosnia."

Auston touched Emma's forehead with his slender index finger: "Do you hear me talking like this from now on?" He asked again, "Can you crack—no, can we disguise our IP address as that of that organization?"

Emma tilted her head and stretched out five fingers: "5 minutes."

12:35 New York time, 25 minutes into the standoff.

Casey turned around secretly after receiving the instruction, so that the distribution of people in the house was roughly reflected in the monitoring range of the camera. After confirming that Lisman was not by Victor's side, Auston nodded and signaled that it was time to start.

Here Victor’s computer, which has been unable to connect to the Internet, suddenly had a network signal. He was refreshed. Just as he was about to call Lisman to report his progress, his eyes were fixed on the dialog box that kept showing new news. superior.

There is a photo on it.

It was his elderly mother and his lovely daughter who was just nine years old.

The dialog box is still constantly showing new messages.

Struggling flashed in Victor's eyes, and he finally hit the keyboard.

12:45 New York time, 35 minutes into the standoff.

Victor turned to Lisman and said, "Boss, we're in touch!"

Lisman was overjoyed when he heard Victor's words, and strode to the computer. Seeing that the dialogues displayed in the organization's dialog box were all codes, he glanced at Victor, and Victor consciously translated for him: : "Are you safe now?"

Lisman chose to let Victor follow him for a reason.Victor is not the most loyal, nor the smartest, nor the most fearless, but he has a characteristic that those people can't match: he knows the code code words of the dark web on the Internet.And the mysterious organization that could send him to Bosnia is on the dark web.

Lisman made a sound and asked Victor to send him a code: "It's not safe, now my whereabouts have been exposed, and those damn cops have surrounded me!"

Now Auston is in charge of telling Lisman what to say, and Dino is holding the equipment and explaining their next plan to Casey.

Casey's emerald green eyes glanced at Victor who was conveying Lisman's words in code. Before Dino finished speaking, Serena saw that Lisman's attention was not on them, and quickly grabbed Casey. Arm, speaking very fast and trembling tone: "Are you a police officer? Are you here to save us? Do you have a gun? Do you—"

Casey frowned, covered her mouth, and whispered in her ear: "I will rescue you, shut up now."

Serena nodded like she was grabbing driftwood, eyes wide with ecstasy.

12:55 New York time, 45 minutes into the standoff.

Under Dino's instructions, Emma quickly typed codes on the computer, asking Lisman to take hostages from the police as a bargaining chip, ask for a military bulletproof jeep, and drive to a private airport not far from the airport. His private jet is ready to take him safely to Bosnia, but only if he gets rid of the police.

Leaving aside what Lisman would do when he saw this code, Emma couldn't hold back typing on the code, and asked Auston: "Captain Xia Zuo, do we have a private airport and a private plane? It's too late to apply to the higher authorities now." ah!"

Auston looked sideways at Dino, raised the corners of his lips carelessly: "We have."

Dino looked at him helplessly, and Oston said seriously again: "Of course, even if we have, we can't let the situation develop to the point where he can drive away. We must take him here, otherwise there will be troubles."

Emma nodded, when Victor sent another message, she turned her head: "Lisman asked where is the address, how can I reply?"

Dino handed her the phone: "Send it to the address above."

Emma took the phone tremblingly, and saw the text message page on it, she glanced at the content of the text messages you came and I sent one by one, this private address clearly belonged to Dino!

I know you're rich but you're so rich I'm-

I feel that as a colleague of Dino, I am emitting a green light of dollars.
