Strings of numbers leapt to life on the laptop monitor as the technician typed away rapidly on the keyboard.
The equipment in the black case automatically assembled itself into a small rack with a button flashing in red. It resembled the infrared scanner he had seen on television programs… This all seemed like cutting-edge technology.
Huo Jinyan watched them work but was incapable of figuring out what they were actually doing. He recalled that the security system gadget in their hands looked completely different in terms of operation. He was taken aback
Did it not usually only involve some computer software and CCTV installation?
His security system technician certainly did not fiddle on the computer like this.
Huo Jinyan touched his nose. He felt increasingly puzzled. He walked over to his wife in the living room and asked her. “Was it very complicated when we installed the security system?”
Song Ning only took a glance at the technicians. Since she was no IT expert, she merely shrugged. “Maybe they specialize in software.”
“Perhaps,” replied Jinyan hesitantly.
An hour later, the technicians finished installing the system. After installation, they briefly taught Song Ning and Huo Jinyan how to operate it before they left.
Huo Jinyan held his phone and looked at the application that resembled a diamond. When he opened the application, he could access all the surveillance footage of their home. Also, it came equipped with some other very novel capabilities such as single-click police dispatch, automatic power cut-off, and night vision surveillance activation.
More importantly, the moment someone activated the infrared scanner, they would receive a notification on the application instantly. Every aspect of security was covered in this app.
It was certainly far smarter than the so-called best security system in the market.
Huo Jinyan raised his head in a daze. He looked at his wife. “Where on earth did our girl hire them from?”
Song Ning was looking at the application on her phone and was still learning how to use it. “Didn’t she say last night that an online friend helped her?”
“Although it was her online friend, why didn’t he let us pay him?” asked Huo Jinyan perplexedly as he touched his chin.
Huo Jinyan had asked about payment before they left, but they said no fee was required.
“Maybe Yaoyao paid for it online already,” replied Song Ning without looking up.
Huo Jinyan felt that this was the only plausible explanation, even though it felt a little odd.
Huo Jinyan scratched his head and said, “Do you think our daughter’s friends are all very special?”
Song Ning finally looked up. “Huh?”
Huo Jinyan looked at her and said, “Let me break this down for you. First, she gave us meds which she had got from her friend. Xiang asked an expert and confirmed that they were priceless. Secondly, the tuition teacher of hers also gave us two boxes of tea that are unavailable in the market. Also, one of them is a collector’s item worth an inestimable amount of money. Thirdly, the technicians who installed the system for us today might look normal, but they were anything but normal after a closer scrutiny.”
Song Ning glanced at her husband. “Stop analyzing our daughter. You should reflect on yourself. If you weren’t so idiotic, our daughter wouldn’t need to upgrade the security system.”
Huo Jinyan instantly shut his mouth.
He coughed awkwardly before leaving the place quietly. “I want to figure out how to use this software.
Song Ning: “…”
