If it were only four or five, Xiao He could understand. After all, actors usually have two mobile phones and a tablet, which is already three electronic devices. If they add some other connected devices, it wouldn't be a problem to break through to four or five at once.
But isn't it a bit much to hang more than ten at once?
The hotel's facilities don't seem that high-end. Are you sure this whole setup won't affect your internet connection?
Moreover, given how obvious this problem was, the hotel's own network management and monitoring system failed to provide any feedback whatsoever?
Anyone with eyes can see there's something wrong with some of the rooms! These hidden cameras are practically shooting from every angle! If a director came, they could switch between wide, medium, close-up, and extreme close-ups to ensure no two shots are the same!
Upon discovering this, Xiao He broke out in a cold sweat.
With such a huge loophole, the hotel management couldn't possibly be unaware of it.
unless……
To verify his suspicions, Xiao He carefully inspected the entire hotel again and found only a few hidden routers that had been installed on their own. However, the number was very small, and they seemed to be used as a precaution after being exposed—in other words, they were decoys.
Currently, there are three main methods for transmitting data in many covert filming devices.
The first method is to directly connect to the hotel's Wi-Fi and then achieve remote transmission. However, this method is easily detected by the hotel unless the hotel itself is also a stakeholder.
The second option is to install a self-mounted router. This can evade the hotel's existing network management and monitoring to some extent, but it is difficult to install, poses a high risk of hardware exposure, and is also costly.
The third type is the earliest and simplest memory card storage method, which records as soon as it is plugged in, is absolutely hidden, and leaves no trace of the network. However, this method cannot obtain real-time data, requires regular maintenance and replacement of the storage, and repeated trips back to the site, making it impossible to immediately screen for useful content.
Clearly, this hotel falls into the first category.
The biggest risk in the first scenario lies with the hotel, and given the rampant use of such equipment, Xiao He simply doesn't believe the hotel is entirely innocent.
Xiao He began to examine historical records again—
And sure enough, it was true.
This time, it's not just those rooms that have connection devices installed now; almost every room has had connection devices installed!
However, not every guest deserves constant monitoring, and whether these cameras are running depends on the guest's individual lifestyle.
For example, that guy who hung up the window before, whose private life was messy and who was entangled with a female actress on set, would definitely be the focus of "attention," and would basically be "on" for a period of time every night.
For example, in the room where Xiao He was staying, after Xiao He checked it, he found that the connection device had only been running in the early morning of the two days before he checked in.
However, it was obvious that Xiao He's life on set was always the same: going back to the hotel and sleeping. There was nothing worth filming. They probably noticed that Xiao He was always sleeping in bed whenever they looked at him, so they completely turned off the shots of him.
It's no wonder Xiao He didn't notice, since the camera always fluctuated in the middle of the night, when he was either sleeping or asleep.
Xiao He's only gratitude now is that the person behind this chose their target first and then eliminated other meaningless people, instead of indiscriminately taking photos of everyone's bathroom area from the start.
Fortunately, after confirming that Xiao He had no nightlife, these people stopped connecting to his room. Otherwise, Xiao He's previous use of hacking techniques to gain experience points in the Qin family would have been exposed.
Of course, if those cameras had actually dared to appear while Xiao He was awake, he felt his criminal intuition would have kicked in, and he would have noticed the situation on the spot, instead of only realizing it now.
But Xiao He was still terrified and broke out in a cold sweat.
He stood up and began searching the room, but even knowing there were cameras, he found nothing.
Finally, Xiao He barely managed to see a small hole through the black frame of the windowsill—it was a very small hole, looking like a screw that had been missed during renovation. On the surface, there was nothing wrong with it, and the position was quite high. If Xiao He hadn't dragged the stool over to look closely, he wouldn't have been able to see it at all!
He tapped on the frame again and found that although the windowsill frame appeared to be hollow, it was actually stuffed with other things inside. The sound was dull when he tapped on it, so the power cord was probably being wrapped in the frame.
"Depend on!"
Xiao He couldn't help but swear.
Even if a celebrity knew the truth, he almost didn't find it!
Moreover, this thing doesn't usually run, so there are no signal fluctuations or heat releases. Its location is not only quite tricky, but it also blends seamlessly with the overall decoration. I'm afraid even with some of the current detection equipment on the market, it would be difficult to find its traces!
These dirty tricks are now so hard to guard against, it's not just that there are ears on the other side of the wall, but eyes inside the house!
