Tong Yu caught Huo Yao’s look of contempt, and sheepishly shut his mouth. He pulled up a chair, sat down beside her, and looked at the laptop screen.
Even though the video was playing at high speed, he had no trouble watching it. Tong Yu sat with his back straight and looked at it with a serious expression on his face.
Huo Xiang’s dashcam operated 24 hours a day. On 13th October at 10:30 am, he drove the car from the villa to the office.
His car was parked at the company’s lot the entire day. At 3:05 pm, the dashcam was covered with something and the image turned black. 30 minutes later, the dashcam got turned off altogether, so there was no more footage.
That was all the footage they had for 13th October.
After watching the footage, Huo Yao turned to look at the little princess and asked. “Do you remember what happened on 13th October?”
Huo Xiang looked at his little sister in a daze and was unable to recall anything.
Huo Yao frowned. She veered her eyes. “Fine. I get it.”
She had to prioritize making Huo Xiang’s medication to improve his memory.
Huo Xiang went quiet. He could sense his little sister despising him once again.
Huo Yao turned to look at Tong Yu. “Is there surveillance in your company’s parking lot?”
Tong Yu nodded.
“Okay.” Huo Yao turned off the footage and tapped swiftly on the keyboard.
Tong Yu did not know what she was up to now, so he asked curiously. “What are you doing now?”
Huo Yao had already hacked into the company’s car park surveillance system using the address on the footage. Before long, she found the surveillance footage for 13th October.
However, the surveillance footage after 3:00 pm was erased just as she had expected.
Huo Yao’s lips curved up as she looked at the laptop coldly and recovered the lost footage.
Tong Yu watched from the side while Huo Yao worked. He could not help feeling amazed.
He had the honor of seeing hacking done up close for the first time in his life. It was quite a sight to behold, even though he had no clue what she was doing.
Tong Yu sighed and shook his head. He looked at Huo Xiang who seemed to be completely stunned.
Even though they had the same parents, they ended up vastly different.
The car park surveillance footage was recovered before long and Huo Yao quickly tapped on it.
At around 3:00 pm, a tall, lean man with a cap on his head approached Huo Xiang’s car. It happened to be the time when the dashcam was disabled and the footage was deleted.
Since the security cameras did not provide 360 degree coverage, she could only see that the man hung around the car for roughly ten minutes.
It was a plausible time frame for him to damage the brake pad.
Huo Yao picked a good angle and pressed pause. “Do you know him?”
Since the man was wearing a cap and had deliberately avoided the surveillance camera with his head lowered the entire time, only the top of his head could be seen.
Huo Xiang shook his head. “I don’t know him.”
Tong Yu touched his chin as he scrutinized the image for some time before he finally said, “I’ve never seen him before.”
Huo Yao crossed her arms and leaned into the chair’s backrest. Just as she was about to speak, her phone rang.
