Chapter 262: Carefully Examining the Surveillance

Apart from that, what made Jeffrey even more uncomfortable was that his grandfather’s words kept ringing in his head, knocking on every inch of his nerves.
Was there really no way for him to become a glorious warrior?
“Eh, I don’t think this is an accident. It’s more like it was man-made.”
The discussion between the two boys in front of him pulled his attention back.
“How do you know? Did you receive some insider information?” asked another boy.
“I didn’t say that. I went to the Astronomical Hall once a few years ago,” the boy whispered with a smile. “There was nothing flammable inside except a bunch of binoculars. Moreover, the Astronomical Hall has only been built less than five years ago. In terms of aging circuits, it was not its turn yet. Therefore, it would not be so easy for the interior to catch fire.”
Another boy thought about this possibility. “But the surveillance cameras didn’t capture anyone coming in and out, right?”
“Who knows? Maybe someone who frequented the planetarium brought something dangerous into the planetarium, and that thing accidentally caught fire. If I were Principal Brown, I would definitely find some clues.”
Jeffrey, who had heard this from the side, curled his lips into a mocking smile. If Principal Brown had the right to investigate, he would definitely be the first to suffer.
Suddenly, a white light flashed in his mind. Then, he turned around and stared at Caroline’s back.
He wasn’t the only regular visitor to the Astronomical Hall recently. Caroline was there too.
Jeffrey narrowed his eyes. Could it really be that coincidental? Caroline, who suddenly appeared in the Astronomical Hall, and the Astronomical Hall that suddenly caught fire…
Jeffrey dialed the investigator’s number. “Find someone with high-tech skills to recheck that surveillance footage.”
The deputy director was a little surprised when he received the call. “Do you have any leads?”
“It’s just a reasonable suspicion,” Jeffrey said calmly. “To be conservative, I don’t want to miss any details.”
Although the deputy director felt that Jeffrey was a little childish, he immediately thought of the research he had done in the laboratory and immediately put away his contempt.
After hanging up the phone, he contacted a colleague from the Information Technology Department, Bobu, and showed him the surveillance video. He did not expect that he would really find some clues.
Bobu specifically marked one of the surveillance videos. “I suspect that this place has been tampered with.”
The deputy director’s heart skipped a beat. “Are you sure?”
“This person’s skills are far above mine. I can only detect a small flaw in it and deduce from it.”
He didn’t expect that there was really an external force involved. The deputy director quickly asked him to see if he could restore the surveillance footage.
Bobu shook his head. “I’m sorry. I’ve already reached my limit by discovering this mark. If I want to restore it, I really can’t do it with my current ability.”
The other party’s skills were obviously much higher than his.
“Not even you?” The deputy director was shocked.
Although Bobu was young, he was indeed an elite talent specially recruited by the Information Technology Department. He was one of the best in the information technology industry.
If even Bobu couldn’t do anything about it, it meant that the person who did it wasn’t someone to be trifled with.
“Then do you have someone you recommend who can unlock this surveillance video?” the deputy director asked.
Bobu thought for a moment. “I’m sorry. Among the people I know, I don’t think there’s anyone who can surpass this person in the same field.”
The deputy director could not do anything about it. After all, he was a judicial professional. He did not know much about information technology, let alone know any powerful people.
He could only ask Bobu, “Then help me keep an eye out and see if there’s a way to find a skilled expert. If you can restore the surveillance footage, you’ll definitely be rewarded handsomely.”
Bobu wasn’t very interested in the reward. Instead, he was very interested in this highly skilled colleague. Therefore, he also wanted to know who this skilled expert was hiding behind the scenes, so he readily agreed.
After the deputy director confirmed the news, he immediately reported the matter to Retlin.
After Retlin found out, just when the deputy director thought that he would be very angry, the other side of the phone was silent for a few seconds. Then, he sighed. “It seems that Jeffrey has met a kind person.”
The deputy director was confused, but Retlin did not explain much. Instead, he said, “In that case, let’s stop the investigation for now..”
