章 39: COUNTERATTACK
In the wake of the recent attack on Wayne Manor and the looming threat from the Black Mask's gang, Thomas took decisive action to counteract the criminal organization's influence in Gotham City.
He knew that the key to thwarting the gang's plans lay in their operations centered around Arkham Asylum and the Power Station. Based on Bruce's insights, he devised a strategy to confront the gang head-on.
First, Thomas pulled back the GCPD from their positions around Arkham Asylum. Instead, he appointed his skilled sniper unit to keep a watchful eye on the facility. Their orders were clear: shoot on sight if any inmates attempted to escape or make a move or any outsider tried to enter.
With this plan in place, he then shifted the GCPD's focus to the Power Station.
As the days passed, Thomas's plan to counter the Black Mask's gang advanced with precision. The GCPD, under his careful instructions, positioned undercover officers strategically throughout the Power Plant blocks. They blended seamlessly with the environment, not arousing suspicion among the gang members who had already infiltrated the area.
The southern block, in particular, was surrounded by undercover officers, creating a net of surveillance that would make it challenging for the gang to make any significant moves. The officers maintained their cover, pretending to be regular workers or locals, all the while monitoring the activities of the gang.
In addition to positioning undercover officers strategically in the Power Station, he decided to take things a step further by installing hidden CCTV cameras and microphones throughout the facility.
He enlisted the help of a skilled team of technicians to discreetly set up the surveillance equipment. Cameras were strategically placed in key locations, providing a comprehensive view of the gang's activities. Microphones were hidden in various spots to capture conversations and discussions that might reveal their plans.
These hidden surveillance devices were designed to blend seamlessly into the environment, making them nearly impossible to detect. The footage and audio recordings were streamed to a secure location, where analysts and investigators could monitor them in real-time.
Gordon and Thomas huddled in the makeshift command center they had set up to monitor the surveillance feed. The room was dimly lit, with multiple screens displaying live footage from the hidden cameras and microphones throughout the Power Station and around the surrounding areas.
They carefully observed the gang members' activities and conversations, using the information gathered to identify key figures and their roles within the organization.
"This is where they receive their shipments," Gordon pointed at one of the screens, showing a group of gang members unloading crates from a truck. "It looks like some of these guys are responsible for logistics and supply. We'll mark them as 'Logistics' for now."
Thomas nodded in agreement, taking notes on a clipboard. "They are bringing in weapons to fortify the station. We need to move soon."
As they continued to watch, they overheard a conversation between two gang members discussing of planting explosives in the sewer system. The details were vague, but it was clear that the Black Mask's gang was trying to sabotage the city's infrastructure.
It's tonight...
[Sewer System]
As the critical information about the planned sabotage in the sewer system came to light, Commissioner Gordon quickly sprang into action. He assembled a group of highly trained SWAT officers and briefed them on the situation. Their mission was to infiltrate the sewer system, locate the planted C4 explosives, and neutralize the threat. They were well-equipped with specialized gear, including bomb disposal kits and advanced communication devices.
The SWAT team descended into the dark and damp depths of Gotham City's sewer system. The tunnels were a labyrinthine network of pipes and passages, and the team navigated carefully, following the intel provided by the surveillance feed. They were well aware that the lives of countless Gotham citizens depended on their success.
In the meantime, unbeknownst to the GCPD, Elana and her team were preparing for a covert operation of their own. Their mission was to eliminate the key members of the Black Mask's gang who had been marked by Thomas.
"Elana... Do what needs to be done. I am sure you know how to handle the situation. I can't trust GCPD blindly," Thomas said over the phone.
"Don't worry, sir, they won't even know what hit them and how they died. As for the GCPD, Mark has marked the gang's insiders. Should I take care of them too?" Elana inquired while spinning a small knife with her finger.
"No, leave them be and feed them false infos as we have been doing till now. We have to keep Gordon in the dark. He is too good for his own health. He will do something stupid again like last time... When I give the order, capture them alive and bring them to me," He replied.
"The cave?"
"Yes. It's time to put on the mask, one last time..."
"Affirmative. And, Sir, it's good to have you back again on the field..."
"Ah, don't embarrass me, El. I am too old for this shit. I don't even know if I can throw a punch like the old days. Haaa... I need to take a long vacation after this mess..."
Elana and her team had been meticulously studying the gang's patterns and habits, including their daily routines and preferences. This information allowed them to devise a plan to introduce poison into the gang members' lives discreetly.
They had a member pose as a new chef at a popular restaurant known to be frequented by the gang. This undercover chef prepared a special dish for the gang members, lacing it with a tasteless, odorless poison. The poisoned dish was served to the targeted members during one of their regular visits to the restaurant.
The gang members frequented a local bar, and one of Elana's team members worked there as a bartender. He discreetly added the poison to the drinks of the marked individuals, ensuring it blended seamlessly with the alcoholic beverages they were consuming.
Some gang members were known to be heavy smokers. An undercover member of Elana's team managed to infiltrate the gang's social circles and offered the poisoned cigarettes during a gathering. The gang members unknowingly smoked the poisoned cigarettes, leading to their gradual intoxication.
To reach a wider range of gang members, another member of Elana's team was employed at a local café. She served poisoned tea and coffee to the unsuspecting gang members who visited the establishment regularly. The poison was carefully mixed into their drinks, ensuring it was virtually undetectable.
The poison used was a slow-acting, lethal substance that caused gradual and irreversible organ failure. The team had calculated the dosage carefully to ensure that the gang members would succumb to the poison over time, reducing the likelihood of arousing suspicion.
Elana and her team executed this plan with meticulous precision, poisoning the marked gang members without raising any alarms. As the gang members continued with their daily routines, unaware of the deadly threat that lurked within their own indulgences, the clock was ticking. The GCPD SWAT team continued their mission in the treacherous sewer system, working tirelessly to locate and disarm the planted explosives before it was too late.
As the SWAT team ventured deeper into the labyrinthine sewer system, they followed the information gleaned from the surveillance feed to locate the planted explosives. The situation was tense, with every step echoing with the weight of their mission.
Finally, the team reached a section of the sewer where they believed the C4 explosives had been hidden. Carefully, they started searching for any signs of the dangerous devices. After a tense search, they located the explosives hidden in a concealed alcove.
Their bomb disposal expert, Officer Ramirez, worked meticulously to disarm the explosives, ensuring that no mistakes were made. It was a race against time since a small suspicion could raise an alarm among the gang and they might just blow the bombs. The team knew that the lives of countless Gotham citizens were at stake.
"Alright, this is the last one," Officer Ramirez said with a satisfied sigh as she wiped off her forehead, "Swap the explosives with the fake ones. Make sure to plant it exactly how the old ones were planted... I can't wait to see those bastards' faces..."
