First-Class Lawyer

Chapter 114 Identity

Half an hour later, in the central monitoring room of the hotel, the attendant on duty flicked through the video with his fingers.

Yan Suizhi propped his hands on the table and looked up at the twenty or so screens that were constantly beating.Gu Yan stood behind him with his arms folded, his eyes also fell on those screens.

Qiao closed the door of the central monitoring room, patted the manager on the shoulder, and said, "Don't be nervous, don't be nervous, it's not a big deal at all. The main reason is that my sleep quality has been poor recently. I see something at night and don't understand it. I can't let it go. I haven't had enough sleep for more than a week, if something affects my sleep tonight, and I accidentally die here, don't you think it's really bad?"

The manager was taken aback by his words, and quickly waved his hands and said, "No, no, don't be joking! Isn't this an investigation? I will definitely clarify it for you. But to be honest, you can rest assured that the security of our hotel is here. This area is number two, no one dares to say number one, or you wouldn’t choose to stay here for leisure, would you?”

This manager is only responsible for the building where the interns live, and there is a higher level of management above him.As far as his authority is concerned, it is perfectly fine to let guests into the monitoring room, but this group of guests is not young, and he is a little afraid of accidents, so he is anxious and wants to report it.

But this young master Qiao and that lawyer just held him down, saying that it was nothing serious and that there was no need to alarm other people.

In fact, no one else was alarmed, and no one even knew about entering the monitoring room.

At this moment, except for a few of them, the other guests should eat, relax, and chat.Neither the staff nor the managers know anything about what's going on here.

Joe smiled: "Yes, I just know the reputation of your hotel, so I told you not to be nervous, just pretend that we are here to hang around. You see, we didn't mess with any equipment, everything is operated by your staff on duty, Just stay here and watch, okay?"

He dragged a chair over involuntarily, took advantage of his height, pushed the manager into the chair, and flipped off the work earphones on his collar.

"..." The manager wiped the sweat from his temples, and said to himself that the young master's ability to make decisions by talking to himself is really amazing, and the speed of his speech is very fast, leaving no room for refutation.I could only nod my head slowly, "That's okay. That... earphones?"

Joe fiddled, "Lend me to see, I'll give it to you in a while, don't be so stingy."

The manager pinched his nose and nodded, but his heart was broken.I said to myself, why don't you just watch the monitoring, why do you make it look like you want to hijack the monitoring room.

The working earphones of this kind of hotel are specially made, which are very different from the matching earbuds for smartphones on the market. Joe is really curious.

He casually leaned back on Ke Jin's chair, fiddled with the earphones to recognize the shortcut commands on it.

Ke Jin is very quiet most of the time, he seems to be wrapped in a cocoon-like world, his eyes wander between the monitoring screens, and he doesn't know what he is thinking.

Very occasionally, when Yan Suizhi or Gu Yan were talking, he would slowly move his gaze away.Most of the time, his eyes are empty, as if he randomly found a spot in a daze.There are also times when some confusion is revealed, as if something is always preventing him from understanding the words of the people around him.

When this confusion accumulates to a certain level, he will suddenly become agitated, and then there will be chaos.

So in order to avoid this situation, Joe always attracts his attention from time to time, preventing him from staring at one thing or one person for a long time.

He deliberately fiddled with the earphones while making all kinds of rambling grunts.After several minutes, Ke Jin finally looked back from the last fixed point, turned his head slowly, and stared at the earphone in his hand.

"It's specially made by the hotel. Look, there are fire alarms, services, permission to open the door, etc..."

"Do you know what these are for?"

"look……"

Whenever Ke Jin looked at him, Qiao even became excited to speak.A small earphone was stupefied by his introduction and explanation.

The manager next to him was stunned.

Even Yan Suizhi couldn't help but look back.

Joe didn't pay attention to others at all at this time. While he was talking with a smile, he raised his eyes to look at Ke Jin's from time to time.

Ke Jin unknowingly sat sideways in the chair, put his hands on the armrests, and looked at the earphone seriously, looking like a well-behaved student listening to a class.

Seeing this look made Qiao's heart soften.He wanted to say more, but a pair of broken earphones can't boast enough. He finally stopped after talking for a while, reached out and stroked Ke Jin's hair and said, "It seems to have grown a lot, and I'll fix it for you tonight." How about a little?"

Ke Jin looked at him, and saw that he hadn't spoken for a while, so he changed his sitting position, and his attention was attracted by the colorful and jumping screen again.

Questions that go unanswered are all too common for Joe, every day.He has long been used to this kind of thing, he would just laugh it off every time, and then find another thing to make Ke Jin look at him.

He talked more and more over the years, and he could talk for a long time about a small matter, which was also cultivated in such a subtle way.

Only this time, when Ke Jin looked away from his face, he felt a little unspeakably sad.

He dialed the earphone in his hand, stared at Ke Jin's side face for a while, couldn't help pushing him twice, and muttered, "Look at me again."

Ke Jin was slightly shaken twice by him, his eyes first looked at his hands, and then slowly at his face.

Young master Qiao felt better again.

He raised his head and raised his chin at the manager, saying, "Thank you for the headset, it's really a good thing."

manager:"???"

When he looked away, he caught sight of Yan Suizhi and Gu Yan.

The two were looking at him.Probably seeing his sad appearance just now, Yan Suizhi asked Qiao: "What's wrong?"

Joe waved his hand, "It's okay, maybe it's because I haven't slept well for several days, I'm a little bit depressed."

"Go back and sleep for a while?" Gu Yan said.

Qiao straightened up: "No need, the biological clock has been taken away by Ke Jin, and sleeping pills don't work in broad daylight. Look at your screens, don't look at me like that."

As the young master said, he clasped his hands together and bowed to them, begging them to let him go, a bachelor who didn't even write a word.

"Eh? Did Qiao treat Ke Jin..." Professor Yanda looked away, gave Gu Yan a hug, and asked in a low voice.

He seldom asked about these things before, even the closest students seemed to be separated by a layer of fog, not restricting or interfering much.

He hasn't changed much now, but he will show some curiosity from time to time in front of Gu Yan.

As soon as he finished asking, he looked up and found that Gu Yan was looking at him very helplessly.

"What kind of eyes are you looking at?" Professor Yanda clicked his tongue.

Gu Yan said lightly: "It's nothing, I just think that you are more slow than Joe in some aspects."

Yan Suizhi: "..."

fart.

How can he be compared with little fool Joe.

"It's just that I didn't bother to think about it before." Professor Yanda finished his explanation angrily, and then quibbled, "Suspicion is never a joke?"

Gu Yan folded his arms and clenched his fist loosely with his knuckles against his lower lip.

He looked at the jumping screen, and said "hmm", which was an answer to Yan Suizhi's nonsense, how perfunctory it was.

After a while, Yan Suizhi looked at the screen again.

Lawyer Gu condescendingly opened his mouth again: "So how many years have you been 'unsuspected'?"

Yan Suizhi: "..."

The attendant on duty suddenly hit the pause button: "I found it, here - the corridor monitoring in the early morning of last night."

The hotel's video archive is every 10 minutes, and these video files are also arranged in sequence every 10 minutes.

For the sake of convenience, the watchman extended the time range provided by Joe, and selected that part of the video to play in order.

The playback speed was increased several times, and the huge screen was frozen in the long corridor.

"It started at 2 o'clock."

Soon, two people appeared in the corridor, crossing each other from both ends of the corridor.

"Who is this person?" Yan Suizhi asked.

The manager said: "This is the security on duty. There will be security guards going through the layers at 2:4, 6:[-], and [-]:[-] in the morning to ensure safety."

These two people were indeed wearing black uniforms. Although they would look left and right when walking through the corridor, they were not close to a certain door, so there was no possibility of entering the "sixth room".

After that, the corridor seemed to be still again, except for the occasional light and dark changes, there was no other situation.

Until around 4:[-], the two security guards on duty appeared in the corridor again, walked across the same way, glanced at the situation in the corridor, and then left, still not staying in front of another room door.

"Could it be a ghost?" Joe didn't believe it.

He said to the officer on duty: "Where is the surveillance outside the window? Could it have entered through the window?"

"It shouldn't be possible. The wall on that side is very smooth, so it's not easy to climb." The manager said.

But in order to make people feel at ease, the duty officer still tuned out the surveillance video, and also selected the ones from 2:4 to [-]:[-].

This monitoring point is in the garden, and the entire wall and windows are unobstructed when photographed from the garden.

The playback speed was also increased, and everything in the night vision lens was slightly green, making people's eyes feel a little uncomfortable after watching it for a long time.

"It's over." Unknowingly, the time passed, and the attendant pressed the pause button.

Joe rubbed his eyes for a moment, "Is this the end? Impossible?"

The attendant pointed to the time on the screen: "Look, it's already 4 o'clock in the morning."

Joe frowned.

In this video from 2:4 am to [-]:[-] am, not only was there no sneaky figure climbing the wall, there was not even a spot of light in the "sixth room" that Joe mentioned.

"But it's true that you can't see the light spot in that room from this angle." The manager said with a laugh. After all, he couldn't just say that the young master might be blinded in the middle of the night, right?

The on-duty officer played the video seven or eight times over and over again, and Joe's brows were pulled up. He touched his face in embarrassment: "What the hell, did I really make a mistake?"

Yan Suizhi suddenly patted the duty officer on the shoulder and said, "Replay the video at 3:10 and let me have a look."
