Jason took what he needed on a flash drive and retreated to his safe house before the sun rose. Combined with the lack of sleep from his and Allison's tryst and the defeated patrol he figured all he would need was four hours before he got back to researching. Before falling asleep he mused possibilities. There had to be a connection between Allison and "Gypsy", at least that was what he was referring his attacker now, but it seemed a bit too farfetched. Gypsy's sightings were up to the hundreds, Allison's travels records didn't even touch that. Both their travels only crossed a handful of times.
Jason would have to meet Allison again. It was going to complicate everything, but he was a clever actor.
When he woke up it was noon, and he started to stalk her contacts, mostly through her company headquarters. He cooked a good story to get through the chain of communication. He eventually reached her real personal assistant.
"You have reached the office of Allison Hinton, how may I direct your call?" She was female, much older, but her accent screamed prim and proper New Englander.
Jason turned on his higher class enunciation that he picked up from living with Bruce. "Hello, my name is Jason Miller, I am trying to reach Miss Hinton and set up a meeting for a small business investment."
"I can assure you Mister Miller that Miss Hinton is rather busy and small business investments are of no interest of her but if you insist on meeting with her I can schedule you for meeting with her chain of command in order to actually meet with her."
Jason sighed in short defeat. He wanted to get to her now. "Is she nearby, I just need to talk to her."
"Mister Miller, I can assure you that she is very busy, and judging from your tone I can also assure you that your attitude is not something we want any association with."
"Okay, I'm sorry, but if you can just send her a message I would be so thankful."
He could hear the lady huff with compromise. "I will send her a message."
Jason left her a number and a message to call him back.

Jason had a quiet patrol, no sign of Gypsy. When he returned to his safehouse he checked his messages and was pleased to have one not from the Bat Clan.
"Jason, this is Allison," it said. He was pleased to hear from her again, especially this quickly. "I'm sorry if it's so late but I just got your message from my assistant. I understand that you want to talk business which really surprised me. Seeing that it is a Friday and I will be out of the office tomorrow feel free to meet with me over the weekend at my place. Just ring me any time and I will give you the address."
Jason was pleased yet nervous. He had to get a solid story together and call in some favors from Bruce for alibis. He needed to be legit to get to the bottom of who Gypsy was, and Allison was his first witness.
