Chapter 200 Hidden Camera
It wasn't convenient to talk near the restroom, so Cui Yuyue grabbed the person's wrist and led them back to the booth.
Xiang Yun glanced at the food laid out on the table. These two seemed to be in a good mood, having ordered a whole table of food.
Compared to his good mood before his sister and girlfriend came to the bar, he was in a bad mood all day.
"Lin Yao, confess what you need to confess, don't force me to take action." Xiang Yun sat opposite her, leaning back on the sofa, and crossed his legs.
He lit a cigarette and put it in his mouth.
The flickering smoke, combined with his sharp jawline and cold eyes, made him look like a ferocious beast ready to devour someone.
"What am I supposed to confess? This is considered restricting someone's personal freedom, and you even took my phone and looked through it at will. I have the right to call the police, right, Sister Cui?" Lin Yao innocently spread her hands.
Cui Yuyue held the phone in her hand, and raised her chin. "Why don't you call the police for me? Or should I ask the waiter to call the police for me?"
"You've done so many bad things, instigated others to bully my sister-in-law, and you still want to call the police?" Cui Yuyue said with her arms crossed.
"So what did I do wrong? I was just joking with him, who knew he'd actually believe me?" Lin Yao leaned back in her chair, comfortably fiddling with her hair. "Alright, if you have nothing else to say, give me back my phone. I've deleted the photos, what more do you want?"
"Wow, this is the first time I've seen a bad guy act so arrogantly. If this were made into a TV series, the audience would be shocked by how thick-skinned you are," Gu Xing complained from the side.
Lin Yao reached out to flick his uniform, but he dodged it at the last second and stared at her warily. "What are you doing!"
"How do you know if Xu Songning truly loves this uniform? I saw him in the photos Cheng Ou sent me. Hmm, he is indeed very handsome. Perhaps Xu Songning loves you, but is just looking for someone else's shadow?" Lin Yao continued to sow discord.
"Lin Yao, you're really exaggerating."
One hand pressed down on Lin Yao's shoulder, preventing her from getting up.
Annoyed by the discomfort of the shoes, Xu Songning threw what she was holding onto the table and asked rudely, "The camera you placed doesn't have a memory card. Is this live recording?"
The miniature camera was only the size of a fingernail and would normally be difficult to detect. Cheng Ou squatted on the ground with her head down, and the camera clipped to her collar flashed for a moment in the darkness, which was captured by Xu Songning.
Lin Yao committed numerous evil deeds, even using a miniature camera to secretly film people.
If someone with ulterior motives edits and posts the events of tonight online, Xu Songning will likely be suspended from work pending investigation.
"I didn't put it there!" Lin Yao denied with a smile.
Xiang Yun put down his long leg, sat down with an air of authority, and reached out to grab the camera.
The tiny black camera was well hidden in the bar. If Xu Songning hadn't discovered it today, her gossip would have been flying everywhere tomorrow.
“The signal source is here, so the receiving device can’t be too far away. Look for it.” Xiang Yun stood up, his 1.8-meter-tall figure radiating intimidation as he stood in front of Lin Yao. “Are you still saying you haven’t broken the law? Are you going to call the police to resolve this, or will you tell me where the device is?”
"I told you I didn't put it there. Even if you force me to admit it, I won't. Call the police if you want, but how can you prove it's mine?" Lin Yao said defiantly.
Xiang Yun sneered, but still cursed, "Idiot."
He didn't want to make a big deal out of this, and he didn't want anyone to see the video content.
"Cui Yuyue, you stay here and watch over her. The rest of you, split up and search." Xiang Yun glanced at Gu Xing, who, as one of the "others," voluntarily helped look for the items.
Xu Songning made a phone call to Zhou Qiao and explained the situation. Zhou Qiao immediately arrived with her people.
Qin You, wearing a mask, followed behind Zhou Qiao; one was bustling about, the other unhurried.
"Who bullied you?!" Zhou Qiao shouted.
"Help me find some equipment, maybe a phone, or a small tablet or something, it should be in the bar." Xu Songning lured the person away, and Qin You followed them quietly.
Cui Yuyue stayed by Lin Yao's side, but her eyes followed Qin You. Holy crap! Even though he's wearing a mask, it's Qin You, right?! The person he's with is his girlfriend? His girlfriend is his sister-in-law's friend?! She's so beautiful!
"Should I ask the staff to help out?" Zhou Qiao frowned.
"No, that's too ostentatious. Help me find out where that woman was sitting before. If we can see where she put anything, it'll be easier to find her." Xu Songning pointed to Lin Yao in the booth.
Lin Yao remained stubbornly defiant, refusing to believe that Xu Songning had any ability to find what she had hidden!
"Alright, I'll leave it to Qin You. Qin You, go find the surveillance footage," Zhou Qiao ordered.
Qin You crossed his arms and said, "I'll sing the final song."
"The grand finale isn't yet; there are still several people to go. Hurry up and find the place, or you'll miss it." Zhou Qiao pushed him upstairs.
Xu Songning started searching nearby. Through a potted plant, her gaze swept over Zhou Qiao and Qin You in an intimate gesture. She coughed lightly, pretending not to see it.
After seeing the master off, Zhou Qiao also started searching the surrounding area.
"Hey, where did you hide it?" Cui Yuyue nudged Lin Yao in annoyance.
Lin Yao glanced at her. "What are you talking about? I don't understand what you're saying. Don't push me. If you push me down, you'll have to take responsibility for me."
"Cui Yuyue, keep an eye on her, don't touch her, lest someone try to scam you." Xiang Yun passed by empty-handed, his frustration rising.
"Brother Yun, did you find it? If you can't find it, I'm going home." Lin Yao shook his watch.
"Ten o'clock, what's your rush? You don't mind taking too long to do bad things. Since you've already done it, why not watch the show? Aren't you happier that we haven't found it?" Xiang Yun said coldly.
Lin Yao hummed a tune, leaned back on the sofa, and nudged Cui Yuyue with her elbow, "Little Cui, can you order me a plate of lobster? Hey, it's really interesting to see your brother and Xu Songning busy like this."
"Shut up." Cui Yuyue glared at her.
Xu Songning and Zhou Qiao met up and searched the area thoroughly, even finding an old hairpin, but they couldn't find any trace of any equipment.
"I said, could she have hidden something on her person?" Zhou Qiao took a breath and wiped the sweat from her forehead.
"No, she's not that stupid. What about Qin You? Did he find anything on the surveillance footage?" Xu Songning glanced at the other areas. Xiang Yun and Gu Xing were searching on the other side. The two teams hadn't met, and there was no news of anything being found on their phones.
“He said he didn’t see Lin Yao linger anywhere. She walked from the first floor to the second floor, and every security camera captured her passing by normally. She didn’t hide anything.” Zhou Qiao tapped the Bluetooth headset.
"She wandered from the first floor to the second floor, looking for a place to hide something. The surveillance cameras didn't capture it, so what about the areas without surveillance cameras?" Xu Songning looked at Zhou Qiao, and the two of them thought of the same place at the same time.
"restroom!"
