Chapter 319: Help
"As for the fifth place, I don’t think you can get that sketch in time for me. What about the other nine places, though? I’ll need the information about that too," Ryder said.
"I’ve sent my people to get the information the other two teams have managed to collect. I’ll be able to get you everything that you asked for before four o’clock," Ray told Ryder.
"That’s good. Send me everything that you have collected so far. I’ll go through that. Send the rest as soon as you get that. My Share ID is..." Ryder asked for the information as he had Ray the ID that could be used to send his laptop all the information that he needed.
"Alright. You’ll get that in ten minutes. I’ve circled around the ones that are responsible for the attacks, and I’ve added my notes. Go through the videos and my notes to get a better picture of what has transpired here," Ray told Ryder before he disconnected the call and got back to his work of going through the last video, which he wanted to share as well.
Ryder waited for the information to get on his laptop. Soon, there was a popup on his laptop.
[User Ray wants to share videos and text files. Would you like to accept?]
Ryder clicked accept on the prompt as he allowed his computer to review all the videos and the notes that Ray sent for him.
While Ryder watched the information arrive on his laptop, he heard footsteps behind him.
"You’re up," Ryder muttered as he glanced back.
"Breakfast is here already. The coffee might’ve been cold. I’ll ask for more coffee. You can start eating in the meantime," He added as he looked at Alice.
" Have you eaten anything?" Alice asked Ryder.
"Not yet. You start first. I have a little work to do. I’ll eat lunch directly," Ryder replied, shaking his head before he picked up his laptop and walked back to the bedroom.
He sat on the bed and placed the laptop on his lap.
The Transfer was already completed. All that was needed was to go through the data.
He started with the text file to read everything that Ray had managed to find out about this, including the locations of the bomb and how those people managed to get inside.
It took him half an hour to go through the pages.
"This is quite detailed. I do understand a few things, but this doesn’t say anything about how those terrorists managed to pass through the security without being caught," Ryder muttered as he frowned.
He wondered if he should call Ray and ask this directly.
"I’ll ask him later. If he knows, he should be able to tell me later," Ryder muttered, shaking his head.
He moved on to the videos of the CCTV footage that Ray had sent. There were four videos. Each of these videos showed a different targeted location in various parts of the city.
Ryder placed the earphones in his ears and started playing the video.
He saw people coming and going inside the hotel before one guy walked over to the place. There was a red circle around his face on the video.
"Good. He did mark the videos to help me recognize the guys faster," Ryder muttered as he placed all his focus on the guy who was marked.
The guy looked like he was in his middle age. He was wearing a casual t-shirt and jeans. There was a bag on his back, which seemed like a laptop bag. The guy sat on the seat in the casino inside the hotel as he looked around. He even played a few games in the casino.
After around twenty minutes, the guy left the place. Ryder did notice that the guy left his bag behind.
There were some words on the video that showed the location and the timing of the blast at that location.
"So it’s the first place that saw the blast. It happened at ten, but the guy entered the casino at 9:30. Just half an hour before the blast," Ryder muttered as he rewinds the video and paused it when it was showing the face of the guy clearly.
"Little devil, you think you escaped, didn’t you?" he let out as he tried to save the face of the man in his head.
After the first video, Ryder watched the second one and then the third one. Soon, he was finished with all four.
"Four videos, five blasts, five different locations," Ryder muttered as he frowned. "And this is just the first part. There are more locations of the blasts, one of which is Esmi’s club. Oh, right. Instead of going to a hotel with stricter security and trying to catch a guy there, it would be much easier to catch the terrorist at Esmi’s club since I’ll even get some help there."
Ryder picked up his phone and dialed a number.
"Ah, Esmi. You had CCTV’s in your place?" Ryder asked. He hadn’t really put his focus on it before since he didn’t care about it. He wasn’t even sure if that place had CCTV or not. The only thing he knew was Esmi’s office didn’t have CCTV.
"Your place didn’t? Ah, it’s fine," Ryder replied in disappointment.
"Ah, no. I was just curious. I wanted to see if I could get any clues about this attack from the videos. Anyway, I’ll get back to what I was doing. Stay safe. I’ll call later," he said before disconnecting the call.
"That sucks. Her place didn’t have any video Security. It would’ve been much easier to catch a terrorist for interrogation there. I guess I have to take the guy from a more secure location," Ryder muttered as he sighed.
"It’s fine. It’s my first try, after all, and I’m only doing this to get information. I can catch the guy, get information, and go back in time to stop it seriously. It doesn’t matter if I break a few laws on my first try. It’s not like that timeline would sti-" Ryder was talking about something when he stopped.
"Wait a minute! Why didn’t I think about it! I don’t have to waste my first try like this. Fourteen locations! I can’t be at the fourteen of them to stop the attacks, so I was thinking about looking for the guys before they separated. How could I be so stupid to even think about wasting this first attempt! So what if I can’t be in fourteen places at once! I have people I can use. We can stop it and save people on our first try!" Ryder let out excitedly as he suddenly thought of a new idea. An idea that was going to involve many people.
