Nox stopped controlling the ui and let Connor move around as he needed. It wasn't often he worked with people who knew this much about their tech. Most just sat and watched in awe. Not Connor. It made Nox smirk inside.
He watched the man with Aurora. He didn't like him at all, he hadn't liked him on the phone and then that one moment he looked like evil incarnate and Nox had the urge to shoot him in the head. He'd done something to his sister and that was the last rational thought he needed.
The pup sensed his mood and jumped into his lap and head butted his chest until Nox broke down and pet the little thing. Nox took a deep breate and reigned in his anger. He could do this the right way. But what was the right way?
Connor asked if he could identify him, and the software could. It was a few more screens and searches and he was well on his way to using the atharim facial recognition software. Normally he'd have done this on his laptop, but right now the phone was what he had. He could go to his room and grab the more powerful machine, but this would work fine. It was technically personal use, but one of their own hunters was missing he was sure they'd give him leeway in that. It's not like he was spying on some random stranger or something. He wasn't THAT guy either.
Nox was grateful for the dog and for Connor's company, he got up and went to the kitchen and grabbed another beer for Connor. He looked at it with longing but he wasn't his father and he wasn't going to fall into that trap. He'd keep his head on straight. He'd losen up after Aurora was safe and sound back in the warehouse.
The search stopped with only one match, which meant it was a good chance this was the man they wanted. Nox stared at the screen, "Deigo De La Cruz."
It looked like he was the son of the man who owned the building. Nox wondered if he knew what his son was doing... Nox wondered what he was doing. He should call the police... Maybe the Atharim could use their inside man, but that would require talking to someone in the know and Nox only had one point of contact and she was missing. He was so screwed.
Nox looked at Connor. "Thanks for your help. I'm not sure there is much more I should ask of you."
Nox wasn't sure if he wanted to get this man in any hotter water than he was already in... this was not going to go down well. He knew that.
