Hound hung up and turned and faced the team. “Midas is heading back tomorrow. He’s going to try and leave Hannah up there, so she stays out of this. The last thing Alejandro needs is leverage. I thought we would need her to ID Alejandro, but with the footage at the hospital we won’t have to. We have enough that we could ID him ourselves.”
“We know he’s here,” Liam saidtaking back over. Until Midas got home, he was still in charge. “Hound use every available security camera in town and on base to try and find out exactly where he is at. He couldn’t have gone far.” Hound’s computer started beeping, and a small warning message came across the screen.
“What is it?” Liam was almost afraid to find out. Nothing else seemed to be going right in the past hour.
“I learned from Commander Brady to always follow the money. With Alejandro setting up a new residence he would have to move some of his funds here. With the data we collected off the flash drive, I could get his bank account information. So, I put a tracker on the accounts to alert me if funds had been moved.”
“And?” Liam hated waiting in suspense and listening to all this hacking and trackingjargon.
“The money is here, but when I tried to access the account, I was blocked. I tracked down the ISP that was blocking me. I’ve been hitting a lot of firewalls, but I think I finally…gottcha.” Hound peered closer at his screen when he pulled up the address the block was coming from. “Oh shit.”
“Oh, shit, what?” Liam yelled and slammed his fists down on the desk. He was tired of the suspense.
Hound turned to face him, and the grave look on his face didn’t bode well. “The person blocking me from getting into Alejandro’s accounts is Cora.”
Cora?
His Cora.
“You’re wrong. Check it again.” Liam wouldn’t believe that of Cora. She would never aid an international terrorist. Not his sweet Cora.
“Data doesn’t lie, Sunshine. Cora set up security to protect Alejandro’s accounts.” Thiswas worse than he thought. Cora was working with his enemy. Maybe she didn’t know. He hoped not. There was only one way to find out.
“Hound, get eyes and ears on Alejandro. I’m going to go visit Cora again.” He hoped he was wrong about the situation and Cora wasn’t helping an international dealer and trafficker.
