Gene Fusion System: Crime Hunter-Chapter 717 - 352 Backup Disc? Who is he?_2

There was a hint of crystal-clear moisture at the corners of her lips.

I must admit, the sleeping Tang Shiyu looked quite adorable, a stark contrast to her usually distant demeanor.

Luo Fei carefully placed a pillow under her head.

Then covered her with a blanket.

Only after that did he continue to watch the surveillance.

...

"I found Miss Tang, I finally found her!"

It's unclear how much time passed.

Luo Fei called out softly.

Tang Shiyu woke up from her slumber.

Rubbing her sleepy eyes.

"Officer Luo, what did you find?"

As she woke up, Tang Shiyu realized she had fallen asleep beside Luo Fei last night, even leaning on his shoulder.

Just the thought of it made her cheeks flush with heat.

"Miss Tang, take a close look at this person in the work uniform in this video!"

Luo Fei said, pausing the video and pointing to the screen.

It showed a man about six feet tall.

Who was carrying a toolbox.

Tang Shiyu, however, couldn't spot anything unusual.

"Officer Luo, are you mistaken? Isn't this Officer Lin?"

She blinked at the screen.

But Luo Fei rewound the video slightly.

"No, Miss Tang, look more closely."

As Luo Fei rewound the video.

Tang Shiyu saw.

In the footage.

Lin Qingshan removed his mask.

And asked someone in the office building for the location of the restroom.

Shortly after, a repairman walked out of the bathroom.

Carrying his suitcase.

And the two individuals before and after entering the restroom were quite similar in height and build, or rather, they were the same person!

"Officer Luo, I really don't understand. Isn't this person Officer Lin? I really couldn't tell anything was off."

But Luo Fei said.

"No, the person you saw coming out of the restroom wasn't Lin Qingshan but someone else."

??

This suddenly brought Tang Shiyu to full alertness, all drowsiness gone.

"Officer Luo, are you saying Lin Qingshan was swapped in the restroom?"

But the restroom didn't have a secret passage; no matter who leaves, there would still be one person remaining inside.

"Miss Tang, initially I also thought that this person was Lin Qingshan. But after considering it carefully, something seemed off."

Luo Fei said, enlarging the video image.

He pointed to the little finger on the left hand of the person who came out last.

"Do you notice that the little finger on his left hand seems unnatural?"

"And he has a habitual gesture typical of a heavy smoker, reaching for a cigarette in his breast pocket."

Luo Fei's reminder inspired Tang Shiyu.

"Right, when we visited the repair company, even the manager said Lin Qingshan never smoked."

"Moreover, his uniform didn't have a tobacco smell."

Though Tang Shiyu didn't smoke.

She had been to a cyber café during school before.

But just that once, she vowed never to go again.

The reason was simple.

The leather sofas and keyboards in the café carried an indelible odor of smoke, and without open windows, the air quality was abysmal.

"And if Officer Lin smoked, there would definitely be a tobacco smell on him; you wouldn't even need to be close to notice. But I didn't smell anything in the car."

"Exactly."

Before Luo Fei could finish.

Lin Qingshan just came out of the bedroom.

"Officer Luo, you're up early?"

In fact, Luo Fei hadn't slept at all the previous night, but that didn't matter.

He was eager to pull Lin Qingshan to the screen.

Explaining his recent discovery.

After hearing his deduction.

Lin Qingshan also felt a rush of excitement.

"Miss Tang, the other day at your company, I wasn't heading to the bathroom; it's just that the window there led to the air conditioning unit outside. So I asked a colleague to lower the winch, so I could work outside the window."

Lin Qingshan's explanation.

Was enough to confirm Luo Fei's judgment was correct.

Tang Shiyu also suddenly understood.

"I get it; this person entered the office building, disguised as Officer Lin, and waited for him to leave the window to the building's exterior wall, then used the time gap to sneak out of the restroom, leaving without a trace."

But soon, Tang Shiyu found this guess rather unbelievable.

"But how did he enter the company? And what was his purpose?"

Tang Shiyu was genuinely scared, resolute to remind the company staff to enhance patrols once she returned.

Ensuring no suspicious people entered the office building.

Otherwise, the consequences would be unimaginable.

Who knows if someone with ulterior motives might break in?

"However, Miss Tang, upon my careful observation earlier."

"This person didn't enter the building disguised as a repairman; he initially posed as a security guard."

Luo Fei said, locking onto a scene.

Seeing a man in a security uniform with gestures identical to the fake Lin Qingshan from before.

Tang Shiyu grew even more curious.

"What was his reason for entering the company? Could he have been after confidential information? But in my office, only I and the cleaning lady have access cards, no one else can get in."

Tang Shiyu was genuinely scared, thus very uneasy.

Luo Fei quickly comforted her.

"Miss Tang, while we can't ascertain his motive yet, the three-hour long recording shows he appeared in three locations."

Luo Fei stated, pointing to the screen.

"One was the elevator, and the second was exiting the bathroom."

What about the third location?

This was a shared curiosity for Lin Qingyun and Tang Shiyu.

Seeing their exploding curiosity.

Luo Fei took a deep breath.

"Though it might sound frightening, his last location was on the rooftop. And from the footage, Miss Tang, you were overseeing work there."

??

"Could he have been secretly conducting reconnaissance, planning to push me off the building the next time?"

Tang Shiyu covered her mouth.

Her face filled with anxiety.

Luo Fei had to admit.

"Miss Tang, I recognize this deduction might instill fear in you. Yet, given the current situation, we can't discard it as a possibility."

Lin Qingshan also analyzed.

"It indeed could be the case, especially since you recently acquired Lotus Manor. As the police investigation deepens, you could find the truth unbearable, causing a breakdown over your brother's situation."

"The adversary could completely fabricate a narrative where you succumbed to immense mental pressure and negative news, leading you to commit suicide by jumping off."

Their analysis heightened Tang Shiyu's fears.

"Officer Luo, what should I do? You must save me!"

Tang Shiyu's beautiful eyes flickered with unease.

Luo Fei quickly reassured her.

"Miss Tang, even if someone intends to harm you, it's alright; we'll all stay by your side, ensuring you're safe."

Though Luo Fei spoke seriously.

Tang Shiyu remained uneasy.

"But Officer Luo, if someone targets me, you can't possibly accompany me 24/7; I also don't want to disturb your work."

"It's alright, given there's no progress on the case and we're waiting on the autopsy report. We can take turns staying with you, considering you are our crucial informant."

Luo Fei agreed without hesitation.

But just then, Old Han woke up, noticing Tang Shiyu wrapped in a blanket, leaning on Luo Fei.

This sight made him somewhat gleeful.

"Old Luo, I need to speak to you. Miss Tang is a lady of noble status, how could you let her stay up all night with you in the living room?"

"If Miss Tang falls ill, it makes her an easier target for evildoers!"

Tang Shiyu blushed immediately upon hearing this.

She intended to clarify she didn't stay up with Luo Fei.

But feared her explanation would worsen things.

Luo Fei couldn't be bothered to explain.

Fortunately, there came a knock at the door.

"Old Luo, Old Han, are you there?"

Hearing Guan Songhu's voice.

Luo Fei felt slightly surprised.
