[Music] I need to locate where the bullet entered the court and where it impacted. [Music] The bullet enters through the window there. Now where did it hit? [Music] Trajectory. The bullet traveled will lead me to the shooter. [Music] Thank you. Victim's name is David Shannon, a Gotham Optics employee sent here to repair a faulty Network Tower. But what killed him? Scanning the DNA impact on the wall should provide an answer. Impact analysis indicates the victim was killed by some kind of explosion originating at that access panel. Panel. I should scan it for additional clues. It looks like the panel was rigged to detonate when swiped with a key card. Someone really didn't want this Tower repaired, and it looks like that same someone left a set of fingerprints behind. Alfred, I'm uploading some prints for analysis. Let me know what comes back. Searching now, and here we are. They belong to one John F. Baker. He's a rather unremarkable criminal, small jobs mostly, and that's curious. What's curious, Mr. Baker's

dead sir. His body was recovered from The Diamond District just under an hour ago. Looks like someone's tying up loose ends. I can bypass the booby-trapped access panel with my cryptographic sequencer. That I'll need the encryption codes from the victim's access card. Reviewing the crime scene will show me where it is. All right, this card has the codes I need to hack any of the network towers' access panels. The car veered off an empty road. Looks like the driver wasn't wearing his seatbelt. I should find the body. [Music] Traces of pepper spray on the right side of the driver's face. Oracle must have been in the passenger seat and deliberately caused the crash. Clever. I should check the area where she was sitting. The door was torn off during the crash. If I can find where it came to rest, I can determine exactly what happened. Torn cleanly off the hinges. The door must have been opened before Oracle got out. I need to examine the reconstruction, pinpoint where she landed. [Music] Oracle got free of the vehicle before

the crash. Foreign Oracle stopped here. Someone took a shot at her. I should analyze the point of impact for ballistic evidence. The caliber of the weapon is a match for the Arkham Knight's sidearm. The trajectory and impact velocity choice to a shooter that matches his height at this range. He couldn't have missed. Foreign [Music] Oracle knew she couldn't escape, but she caused this crash for a reason. She must have left a clue while crawling away. Foreign
