Chapter 1510: Trading Information and Big Dipper’s Rules

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor. Henyee Translations

There was no need to talk about evidence when it came to big data analysis.

The data itself was the greatest evidence.

In the beginning, Lamar had only beena regular suspect.

When the program started to analyze the big data related to him, however,

more questions popaped up.

Lamar wasn’t Luke.

Luke had been prepared for something like this since the beginning, so most of

the things he had done at the very beginning were mixed into other cases.

For example, what he had done in Paris and Rio made very rare appearances in

police records, and even then were classified as gang fights.

Most of the others wouldn’t even appear in any database, because many of the

people were just “missing”

In this world, countless criminals battled it out every day, and would go into

hiding or be made to disappear.

There were many reasons to flee: from their enemies, from the police, or from

debt.

Similarly, there were too many people who had been made to disappear, and

no one could put these numbers together.

That was because gangs didn’t set up any sort of database. Most information

spread by word of mouth over a period of time, and more than 90% of it was

lies or exaggerations.

In three to five weeks or three to five months, they would be forgotten.

To verify the information, a professional would have to be sent out to conduct

a thorough investigation.

But there were more new rumors that came out every day than there were

investigators; this wasn’t a task that could be completed perfectly.

Even with Luke’s multifaceted system, he had to set up various algorithms to

pick out the information he needed to pay attention to from the huge amount

of online trash that was generated every day.

There was no way to estimate the amount of data that slipped through the

cracks, but that was all he could do.

No matter how amazing big data analysis was, there had to be “big data” first.

Without data, or if the data was insufficient, there was no way to analyze it.

Lamar and the people behind him obviously couldn’t be as careful as Luke,

even though their dealings were already very covert.

In fact, Lamar had never directly contacted anyone from SHIELD let alone met

them

If Phil wasn’t specially focused on this investigation and didn’t have the

tycoon’s technical support, he might not have noticed it.

This also made him realize that there was definitely someone behind Lamar,

and the person definitely knew the rules and regulations of SHIELD well.

Otherwise, this person wouldn’t have used such a covert communication method.

For a senior SHIELD member to collude with drug dealers, it was unlikely it

would be purely for money.

For example, it wouldn’t be hard for Phil to pull in hundreds of millions in dirty

money if he wanted to.

He could do it quietly over a decade as long as he was patient.

There would be even less risk if he transferred to another department or a

company, and he could enjoy the semi-retired life after that.

SHIELD wOuldn’t investigate too deeply.

Only an idiot would think that the people in a secret agent organization were

utterly honest and clean. As long as they didn’t cross the line and didn’t cause

any trouble on the surface, nobody would harp on about it.

Even Nick Fury would only regard these people as potential “tools.”

Once he had a hold of their weakness, they could become potential spies as well

as cash reserves if they were made to hand over their dirty money. Why

wouldn’t he go for that?

Thus, the person in contact with Lamar definitely didn’t have a simple motive.

Also, the program had only discovered five instances of contact between Lamar

and this SHIELD person in a span of two months, before this situation

completely disappeared.

They had probably found a more covert means of communication, or were just

avoiding drawing attention by using the same method again.

Phil wouldn’t have paid attention to this clue if he had just been investigating

instances of corruption.

But he was looking for Hydra. Even if he was mistaken in the end, he couldn’t

overlook this suspicious activity.

After tonight, this had become an even more major clue.

Lamar couldn’t be a nobody; Phil had had the upper hand in the fight in the

beginning, but had almost been killed in the end.

The person from SHIELD behind Lamar wasn’t simple either.

Phil only gave Luke a rough picture and couldn’t disclose more details. After

all, this was an internal matter.

If it wasn’t for the agreement with Batman and the fact that Big Dipper had just

saved him and was an involved party in this incident, Phil wouldn’t have said

anything

Luke didn’t care. Instead, he shared with Phil the information he had collected

– of course, he did it in Batman’s name.

Phil sucked in a sharp breath when he heard that the cartel controlled by

Claudia distributed tons of illegal drugs to the United States and around the

world every year.

This wasn’t an ordinary drug gang

Statistically speaking, at this level, something was bound to happen to at least

10 to 20% of the cartel’s goods, or they might be seized by the authorities or

stolen by other gangs.

This sort of information would have been put on the record in the DEA and the

FBI, to give the relevant departments a rough idea of the scale and routes of

the drug distribution.

However, the cartel had quietly made more than a billion dollars without

anyone knowing, which was very strange.

It was even rarer for two extremely strong superhumans to be in control of a

Mexican cartel.

SHIELD was an organization which dealt with superpowers, which also meant

that it was people from SHIELD who were the most likely to come into contact

with superhumans.

Using criminals to carry out crimes was an extremely old-fashioned yet

effective method, and these sorts of people tended to be government officials.

Luke gave Phil a few minutes to digest the information before he said, “Prepare

the questions you want to ask later. It’s best to do it this way..

Phil was a little surprised, but still nodded in agreement.

Since it was Luke who had caught Lamar, he could interrogate Lamar however

he wanted, as long as it didn’t hold Phil up.

When they went back over to Lamar, the man was already in a semi-conscious

state.

Luke picked up a “helmet” and put it on Lamar’s head, before he gestured for

Phil to begin.

Phil nodded and asked the questions he had prepared.

Do you know Hydra?

“Who is your contact in SHIELD?

“Who do you think your contact may be?

These questions were very straightforward.

Phil looked at Luke and waited for him to nod or shake his head before he

moved on to the next question.

The interrogation was over in less than ten minutes.

Luke tossed a phone to him. “This is all the information he knows. He doesn’t

know much else.”

Phil looked at the information on the screen and was astonished. “How did you

do this?

Luke didn’t answer directly. He took out his gun and shot Lamar with three

more paralysis bullets.

Then, he jerked his chin at Lamar. “This will knock him out for an hour or so.

Do you still want this person? If he isn’t especially important, I have to get rid

of him right now.”

Phil looked at Lamar’s heaving chest and sighed in relief. He thought Big

Dipper had killed him.

He frowned. “Why?”

Luke chuckled. “I can’t get rid of all evil, but I kill any source of evil I come

across. If he’s not worth much more after this, I hope you won’t break my

rules.
