Chapter 31 Monitor
"A monitoring device?" Bai Yiqiu frowned. "When did it happen?"
Mo Ruyan smiled contemptuously, then took something out of her pocket and handed it to him.
"I found it in the gap under the monitoring console in the operation room. I have already removed the battery."
Bai Yi Qiu looked at her hand.
It was an inconspicuous black disc, and when held in the hand it felt about the size of a coin.
With such a small size, it is indeed difficult to be discovered.
"Security checks are strictly controlled. How could anyone bring this thing in?" Bai Yi Qiu frowned and stared at the black disc with some suspicion.
Then, he rolled up his sleeves, looking like he was going to fight someone. "I'm going to go find those security guys and ask them if they're blind or something! How could someone sneak something in here?"
Mo Ruyan saw him turn around and leave, but suddenly stopped.
"Wait..." Bai Yiqiu narrowed his eyes, a sharp light flashing in his eyes, "Maybe... it's a mole?" He turned his head sharply to look at Mo Ruyan, "Didn't they say before that someone would come in and contact the police? Is he hiding among the security inspectors? Yes, there must be a mole hiding among our security inspectors."
Bai Yi Qiu gradually confirmed his guess.
Mo Ruyan, sitting on the sofa, took a deep breath, and the cigarette butt between her fingers was deformed by her pinching.
She really wanted to just throw the cigarette butt over there.
Bai Yiqiu's idea was so unheard of that it gave her a headache.
Hearing this, Mo Ruyan put the cigarette butt into the glass jar and pressed it a few times, but still couldn't help but said sarcastically:
"What? You think security personnel can come and go in the operating room at will?"
Bai Yiqiu's brow furrowed, and just as he was about to speak, she raised her hand to interrupt him. "Don't be so hasty," she said, slowly turning the monitor in her hand. "The Chinese electronic scanner is new, so it's bound to have flaws. Over-reliance on new products isn't a good idea. Perhaps this person added something to the monitor to evade the scanner's detection."
"Apart from our own people, no one else can freely enter the operating room."
"The monitoring room only keeps records for six months. I've had my men check the records for the past six months, and they haven't found any suspicious individuals entering. So this bug... was placed there at least six months ago."
"Think about it," she said, changing the subject with a hint of sarcasm. "For the past few years, the old man has treated you like his right-hand man, handing you full control of the casino. And I only show up every now and then. And yet, this bug was installed six months ago. What kind of casino are you in charge of?"
When Bai Yiqiu heard that it was released half a year ago, he was obviously relieved and said a little irritably:
"Fuck! What are you talking about? This thing is from half a year ago. I thought it was more recent. If this thing causes this week's shipment to be intercepted, I'm going to kill you, old man!"
Mo Ruyan smiled and said, "What if... this person is just waiting for an opportunity?"
Bai Yiqiu found it funny: "Wait for an opportunity. We won't discuss the location in the operation room. If there really was an opportunity, we would have been intercepted long ago."
Mo Ruyan shook her head, brushed her curly hair with one hand, and then said:
"Perhaps, this eavesdropper is not used to monitor us, but is a communication tool for passing messages."
"Our core transport team has always been under isolated control. These individuals have been under surveillance since their selection, and before any operation, they are concentrated in the Imperial Era for closed management, receiving encrypted instructions only at the moment of departure."
"Just like the cop who was arrested this time, when he realized the old man had already suspected him, he panicked and planned to use his phone to send a message from the Royal Dynasty restroom. This action completely exposed him. The message he sent from the Royal Dynasty was intercepted by our highly paid technicians, who deciphered the data's transmission address."
Mo Ruyan unscrewed the device casing with force, revealing the micro speaker hole inside.
"I guess," she said, stroking the tiny holes slowly, "this thing was the megaphone he used during his time as an emperor."
"As for who the message is for..." She looked up at Bai Yiqiu, a hint of amusement flashing in her eyes, "We can meet now."
The men arranged by Mo Ruyan came in at the right time and respectfully presented a square box.
Bai Yi Qiu watched her take out a small square object from inside. It was still about the size of a coin and could be easily hidden.
"I had those guys interrogate the police officer while recording his voice. I gave the audio to the technical department to process, and they used it to create a voice changer."
Mo Ruyan skillfully turned on the Bluetooth of her mobile phone and connected the voice changer to it.
The jumping words on the mobile phone screen instantly turned into the voice of the note through this ingenious device.
This is the 356th year in China. Technology is not particularly advanced. Ordinary people can hardly afford even a good smartphone, but they can easily obtain these high-end devices.
These things are only available to the rich, who monopolize most of the resources, and this is even more so for crooked gangs like them.
Bai Yi Qiu's eyes swept back and forth over her.
The woman holding the cigarette between her fingers looked lazy and dangerous, like a poisonous snake lurking in the dark.
He couldn't help but sigh in his heart: As expected of a woman who has worked her way up in the red light district, every step she takes has her own calculations. He thought that she recorded the video just to show people the fate of the undercover, but he didn't expect that she actually wanted to use it to make a voice changer, specifically to use it to further clear those unknown obstacles.
The old man probably won't leave his property to her in his will.
"Shh!"
Mo Ruyan stretched out a finger and placed it between her lips. Then, she took out a small battery from the box and installed the monitoring device.

When Xie Yue returned home, the house was pitch black.
After he finished washing up, he turned on the computer and suddenly caught a glimpse of the message that popped up in the lower right corner of the computer.
He moved the mouse expressionlessly and clicked it, and a black dialog box popped up directly on the screen.
An audio file is playing automatically.
Amid the rustling sound of electricity, a man's weak voice sounded intermittently: "I'm going to die...their transaction location...Beijiang Road...tomorrow night..." This voice was automatically translated into text in the black box on his computer screen, appearing line by line.
Xie Yue was in deep thought.
Beijiang Road?
If Xie Yue had not seen the video that Mo Ruyan showed to Wen Nianchu with his own eyes today, he might have been deceived by this recording.
In the video, the policeman's wrists were handcuffed so hard that they were bruised and purple, making it difficult for him to move even a little bit, let alone enter the Royal Era's operation room again and use the eavesdropping device that had been broken for a long time to transmit messages.
This trap is just like a bait thrown casually by a fisherman.
