The next day, as Eddie sat at his desk, he went over all of his notes that he had acquired just from reading people's minds. It astounded him just how many secrets that people were hiding. Just how many crimes could be solved if he had picked up this power a long time ago.
The more time he spent with Astrid, the more that she became putty in his hands. He knew that it would only take him a little while and he would be able to use this new ability to further his career. He would be known as the best officer on the force. He would be a hero, greater than the Flash and Firestorm themselves.
But the one true case that he cared about above all was the case of the mysterious red speedster. Just who was he?
Neither Astrid nor Cisco had given up any clues, last night as to who he was. The more he probed Astrid's mind, the more he felt a thick wall come up. Was it possible that she truly didn't know the Flash's true identity?
As Eddie took a sip of his water, Barry walked in to declare the news of Amunet's arrest.
"Did you hear? They arrested Amunet in relation to the blue flame drug last night. They found evidence throughout her hideout and were able to arrest everyone involved."
"I'm guessing that the Flash was thereā¦" Eddie said as he attempted to probe Barry's mind for the answer. This time for the first time that he had tried to probe his brother's mind, he received an image.
It depicted Barry as one of the scarlet speedster's biggest fans.
"Yeah, he was." Barry said with a dorky smile on his face.
Eddie felt angered by this notion, even his dorky twin brother looked up to this hero in red. Eddie knew that at that point that he would take down the speedster, no matter the cost.
