038: "There are five cameras in the bedroom."

Huaiyan almost cried herself to death before she could explain what had happened.

Xiao Ju, the room manager, was a friend the original owner met online.

At that time, the original owner had no intention of becoming a streamer, and her relationship with Xiao Ju was just that of a good online friend.

In the original storyline, there wasn't much information about Xiao Ju; all that was known was that she was a college student from a poor family.

After the original owner became acquainted with Xiao Ju, she learned about her background.

In short, Xiaoju is a girl from the countryside. After entering college and being exposed to the outside world, her worldview underwent a dramatic change.

Because of a lack of money, Xiaoju works multiple jobs at the same time and has lost the enthusiasm she had when she first entered university. Basically, she will take any job as long as the money is enough.

Upon learning this, the original owner, after having the idea of ​​becoming a streamer, invited Xiao Ju to become a moderator in the live stream room.

Because most moderators only become familiar to the streamer by sending gifts.

Or they are friends you already know.

Perhaps because the original owner offered a high reward, Xiao Ju agreed without hesitation.

When Huaiyan entered the world, Xiaoju was already a moderator. In addition, the original storyline did not include the scene where Xiaoju gave 2365 the address.

As a result, each person had their own system, and no one paid much attention to the housing manager.

But they forgot that the best way for 2365 to get Huaiyan was through Xiaoju.

Xiao Ju was short of money; those three thousand yuan represented a month's hard-earned salary for her.

Three thousand yuan is undoubtedly a huge sum of money in the eyes of ordinary people.

However, Xiao Ju's reluctant actions put Huai Yan in a dangerous situation.

"He...he followed me tonight," the boy sobbed, tears streaming down his face, "If it weren't for you, I..."

Huaiyan could not say anything more.

He was afraid to see Fu Tingyu's cold expression again, as if the warmth he had shown these past few days was all fake.

But the words of coquetry were not yet uttered.

"Waaah...!"

The boy's legs, which had relaxed, tensed up again, and he suddenly straightened them in the air, his toes curling tightly.

Outside the window, the hazy moonlight shines through the old window, casting mottled shapes.

Fu Tingyu wanted Huaiyan to remember this lesson forever.

-

"But...but," Huaiyan curled up in a small ball on the bed, her face flushed an unnatural red, "I have to do a live stream tonight..."

“Live streaming is fine,” 073 said. “As long as you don’t make a sound, no one will know that you’re doing this kind of thing.”

"R-Really?" The boy gasped for breath, his breath hot. "I'm scared..."

I'm afraid that men will also watch the live stream.

“No…no, that won’t do,” Huai Yan thought with difficulty, her eyes somewhat unfocused. “He’s here, monitoring me.”

Otherwise, it's impossible to explain why a man would know so much about his whereabouts.

They even knew whether he had changed his clothes or not.

There are definitely surveillance cameras in the rented house, and it's very likely there are more than one.

In this way, all the clues can be connected.

"Yes, there is indeed surveillance," 073 could only confirm roughly. "I just checked."

"How is it?" the boy asked softly.

“Not very good.” 073 became serious. “There are five in your bedroom.”

Five.

What kind of concept?

No matter where Huaiyan stands, there are probably no blind spots for surveillance cameras.

Those cameras are extremely difficult to spot, and even if you were to actually search for them...

It's likely that the man saw it through surveillance footage before the camera was even found.

“Then we’ll have to leave it at that for now,” 073 said helplessly. “Otherwise, we’ll just get another lesson.”

There are five in the bedrooms alone, not to mention the rest of the rental apartment.

“Oh right,” 073 suddenly remembered something, “what happened to 2365 who was following you last night?”

When Huaiyan met Fu Tingyu at the corner, he completely forgot about 2365.

There's always a sense of security about a man.

Being with the other person is the most reassuring moment for Huaiyan in this world.

Therefore, it's a unique and abnormal NPC, with one system for each person, and I only just realized it now.

“I…don’t know either,” the boy said weakly, feeling the unbearable tremors. “I…didn’t pay much attention at the time.”

Huaiyan only knew that the footsteps behind him suddenly stopped, which was especially noticeable in the quiet night.

He thought it was a trick by 2365, so he didn't think much of it and his only thought was to get back to his rented room as soon as possible.

"That pervert 2365 was probably dealt with by the villains," 073 speculated. "I remember Fu Tingyu used to bring bodyguards when he went out."

There's too much open and covert competition in wealthy families and business circles.

Although Fu Tingyu was quite skilled in the original storyline, he still relied on bodyguards unless it was a critical moment.

“It should be… right,” Huaiyan turned over uncomfortably, her body trembling slightly, “He didn’t even ask me about 2365.”

Last night, when she was being affectionate with Fu Tingyu and mentioned that 2365 had been following him, the man showed no particular emotion.

They probably knew what 2365 was planning from the start.

“And I think it’s too much of a coincidence,” 073 asked. “Why did Fu Tingyu know you were there?”

Even if there were surveillance cameras, the man wouldn't be so idle as to deliberately block Huaiyan's path.

"You...you mean," the boy's eyes widened in disbelief, "that he already knew?"

"right."

Not only did they know, they even guessed that Huaiyan might go back to the rented apartment to retrieve the toy.

“Fu Tingyu is observing you.” 073 finally understood what he hadn’t understood before. “But we’ve been tricked.”

The man had always known everything that had happened to Huaiyan during this period.

This includes, but is not limited to, Huaiyan chasing Jiang Ze when school started, 2365's threats and stalking, and that shameful "toy".

If I'm not mistaken, Fu Tingyu was probably testing the waters.

He was testing whether Huaiyan knew about his surveillance and omnipresent control.

At the same time, she appears beside the vulnerable boy at crucial moments, making Huaiyan feel dependent on her.

This is to achieve a certain goal.

Huaiyan cannot live without him.

It is obvious that the one-person-one-system approach was not detected.

The man's test was quite successful.

The boy was genuinely frightened in the alley, which is why he pouted and started crying when he saw Fu Tingyu.

“There’s nothing to say now that you’ve been tricked,” 073 said nonchalantly. “If Fu Tingyu wants to take you away, just agree.”

After all, even if she resists, the final outcome will definitely satisfy the man.

Moreover, the man had already found countless faults in the boy.

It's clear they want to give Huaiyan a lasting memory.

Therefore, they are even less able to resist.

Just like now.

"Get up and take a break."

Looking at Huai Yan's petite figure, huddled together, 073 couldn't help but feel a little sorry for her.

“It’s almost evening now,” 073 reminded us. “There’s no time to wait, we need to make some adjustments quickly.”

Huaiyan didn't go to sleep until after 5 a.m. this morning.

I woke up at six o'clock in the afternoon.

Perhaps due to excessive physical exertion, the boy slept for an unusually long time.

"Um……"

Looking at the comments in the live stream, the boy stammered, "Today's live stream... is for one hour."

The live chat exploded when people saw Huaiyan's state.
