"Is it really that simple?"
Cisco frowned. It felt unreal to him. They had all investigated through the night, yet according to Lin Li, all they had to do was wait for the metahuman to appear, then electrocute him to death, and the matter would be over.

Caitlin said nothing. Sitting there in silence, she recalled her fiancé. He had
