On the way, Lin Nan asked worriedly, âYou sayâ¦Could this person be Shen
Lingxue?â
âWhy would you think that?â Ji Yuanyuan was a little surprised.
âI just remembered that the internet cafe is very close to Shen Lingxueâs school. Ever since you told me about Shen Lingxueâs past, Iâve stopped funding her. Iâve changed it to a young lady whoâs in a more difficult situation.â
Lin Nan paused for a moment and muttered to himself, âI was just thinking, could it be her? However, I only stopped funding her and didnât say why. She probably doesnât know about our relationship, right?â
âI canât be sure. Weâll only know when we get there.â Ji Yuanyuan shook her
head.
The two of them quickly arrived at the internet cafe.
It was a relatively small internet cafe. The moment Ji Yuanyuan entered, he looked around, and her heart sank.
This internet cafe was small in scale, the facilities were old, and no cameras were installed.
However, Ji Yuanyuan did not give up and went to ask the staff, âExcuse me, have you installed a camera here?
âNo, I didnât.â The manager immediately shook his head.
Hearing this, Lin Nan said to Ji Yuanyuan in a low voice with some disappointment, âItâs difficult without a camera. Even if we call the police, itâs probably useless. That person must be very cautious. That account should not be a real name.â
When the manager heard the words âcall the policeâ, his expression didnât seem right.
âGive me a seat first,â Ji Yuanyuan said deliberately. âCan I choose my own seat?â
The manager seemed to heave a sigh of relief and nodded, âOf course you can.â
Ji Yuanyuan said to Lin Nan, âIâll go find a better seat.â
She turned around and looked around.
There were only a dozen machines inside, and the place was quite spacious.
When Ji Yuanyuan turned to a corner, she looked at the back of the computer and fell into deep thought.
Seeing that Ji Yuanyuan was still standing there, the staff urged, âHave you chosen?â
Ji Yuanyuan looked at the back of the computer and then at the entrance of the Internet cafe. Suddenly, a smile appeared on her face.
âBoss, what is this?â Ji Yuanyuan pointed at a red dot on the back of the computer and asked.
When the manager saw where Ji Yuanyuanâs fingers were, his expression changed, âGet lost, get lost. Why are the two of you so busy? Iâm not doing business with you anymore. Get lost.â
Lin Nan had never been scolded like this before. He immediately put her hands on her waist and said, âWho are you scolding? Weâre just asking. What are you feeling guilty about?â
Although Lin Nan did not know what Yuanyuan had discovered, she could tell from the managerâs reaction he was feeling guilty.
The staff immediately came out from behind the bar counter and reached out to push Lin Nan, âI think youâre here to cause trouble, right? Hurry up and get lost. If you donât leave, donât blame me for being rude.â
Ji Yuanyuan quickly went forward. Before the staff could touch Lin Nan, she reached out and pushed him back.
The manager staggered a few steps and only managed to stand up when he leaned against the wall.
âIf you guys cause trouble again, Iâll call the police!â A man was almost pushed down by a young lady. He felt embarrassed and immediately threatened her.
âCall the police? Do you dare to call the police? You should know what the pinhole camera recorded, right?â Ji Yuanyuan said coldly.
When Lin Nan heard this, she looked in the direction where Ji Yuanyuan was standing in surprise.
So, that red dot was a pinhole camera?
The manager was still stubborn, âWhat else can I film? Iâll just film the door.â Ji Yuanyuan pulled Lin Nan behind her and put on a fake smile, âLooking at your attitude, if I want to see the contents of the surveillance camera, you wonât let me see it, right? Why donât I call the police?
The managerâs expression changed drastically. He was about to make a move, but when he thought of the two moves just now, he did not dare to make a move in the end.
The young lady in front of him clearly knew some martial arts.
It was a little embarrassing to say it out loud. He might not be able to beat her.
Therefore, a wise man knew how to adapt to the times.
âWhat do you two want?â After hesitating for a moment, he lowered his voice and asked.
âWe just want to see the surveillance camera at around 11 oâclock last night to find out who was here.â Ji Yuanyuan did not pester him further and directly stated his purpose for coming.
âIf I let you see, can you pretend you donât know what happened today?â The manager asked again.
Ji Yuanyuan nodded, âAs long as you donât do it in the future, we can pretend that we donât know.â
The manager heaved a sigh of relief, and his tone softened, âAlright, I can show you the surveillance footage.â
The manager immediately sat down next to the computer. With the mouse in his hand, he began looking for the computerâs surveillance video.
âDonât try to play any tricks,â Ji Yuanyuan warned him. âEven if you delete the video, the police still have a way to recover it.
She opened her mouth to scare the manager.
The internet cafe could have installed a regular camera, but he had installed a pinhole camera.
Moreover, the position of the pinhole camera looked a little strange. Therefore, the purpose of the internet cafeâs manager installing this pinhole camera was definitely not simple.
Now that he was being threatened, he likely would delete the video while Ji Yuanyuan was not paying attention.
It would be difficult for Ji Yuanyuan to find the person who was messing with her behind her back.
When the manager heard this, his expression turned ugly, âIâm afraid of you. Find what you want and leave quickly.â
He flipped through the computer for a while and quickly said, âThis is the surveillance footage from 10:50 p.m. last night. Take a look for yourself.â Ji Yuanyuan, who was standing behind the manager, rushed forward and stared at the computer.
The pinhole camera was a little lower, so the image was not very complete. No one came to the front until around 11:10 p.m. Then, a woman in a black dress walked in.
As the picture went up, only her lips could be seen.
âWas she the only one who came here around eleven oâclock last night? Do you still remember what she looks like?â Ji Yuanyuan asked.
After being scared, the managerâs attitude became much better, âThere were quite a few students who stayed up all night at the internet cafe last night, but they all came early in the morning. Around eleven oâclock⦠She really came alone. I remember that she didnât stay long before leaving.
Ji Yuanyuan nodded and continued watching the surveillance footage.
After the woman passed through the door, she did not appear for a long time. It was not until 20 minutes later that she appeared on camera again.
This time, she left the internet cafe. When she left, her back was facing the camera, and she did not show her face.
Ji Yuanyuan rewound the video to the scene where the woman had just entered the room.
This was the only time the woman showed her face.
Ji Yuanyuan froze the video and zoomed in after taking a screenshot.
âIt doesnât look like Shen Lingxue!â Lin Nan muttered.
Although only her mouth was exposed, it didnât look like it..
