Chapter 321
With only one camera in hand, if he wants to collect as much evidence as possible, he must appear at key points. Following the protagonists is undoubtedly a good method, but what he needs to do is to create his own plot instead of following the plot of others.
Moreover, if he follows the protagonists all the time and appears at the end as usual, how will he demonstrate his newly designed ability? This ability can only be manifested when a battle breaks out.
When I walked out of the room, the ground looked very different from before. Several teams were patrolling the area with flashlights, obviously looking for something.
The most eye-catching person among them was probably Li Shu, who was wearing a black silk pajamas that looked of good quality, and stood in the middle of the open space with a cold face, directing the patrol team to search. Clothes make the man, and the saddle makes the horse, and at this moment he looked a bit like Si Zhaohua, a nobleman.
"Lord Li Shu, the head of the family hopes that you can resolve the problem as soon as possible and not disturb everyone's rest." A subordinate who was dressed more gorgeously than the other patrol members said respectfully, but there was not much respect in his words.
Li Shu seemed to be completely unaware of the disrespect behind his respectful appearance, and smiled as gently as a good student: "That's it, I understand."
Su Bei stood by and could see a faint glimmer in Li Shu's eyes. Then, the light in the subordinate's eyes disappeared, and he walked straight to the edge of the island.
Because the scene was chaotic, most people didn't notice his abnormality for a while. A few people noticed it, but because they didn't know what was going on, they didn't stop him. It wasn't until his subordinate fell into the lake with a "plop" that everyone looked over in shock.
While others were rescuing people, another subordinate who had been paying attention and witnessed the entire process carefully asked the boy who seemed to have a changeable temper: "Master Li Shu, what are you doing?"
Li Shu showed his usual gentle smile: "That person was really careless, how could he fall into the river? Don't you think so?"
Looking at those eyes without a smile, the subordinate only felt a strong threat. He immediately broke out in a cold sweat and replied in agreement: "...Yes, yes, I was so careless!"
"Xiao Shu has really changed a lot. How can you treat your subordinates like this?" A man in a suit came over and said to Li Shu with a smile. However, there was no smile in his eyes either. In this respect, the two men were surprisingly similar.
The invisible Su Bei raised his eyebrows, trying to guess the relationship between the two men. Judging from their ages, he must be his father, so he must be his brother.
As expected, Li Shu showed some annoyance in his eyes: "Even if I am no longer favored by my father, my status on the island cannot be questioned by a subordinate, brother."
"So I didn't stop you from punishing him, right?" The eldest brother still maintained his sanctimonious look, "I'm just wondering, aren't you worried that father will be unhappy now?"
"Hasn't father always disliked me? Anyway, he dislikes me, so it doesn't matter if I go a little too far." Li Shu lowered his eyes and smiled neurotically.
The eldest brother looked at him deeply and changed the subject: "Do you know who is causing trouble this time?"
Without hiding anything, Li Shu nodded openly: "It should be my group of stupid classmates."
This kind of thing can't be kept secret. As soon as he came back, the island was invaded by people. It was obvious that he was the cause. In addition, the invaders didn't intend to cause damage or steal anything. Li Shu guessed who it was after a little thought.
This answer made the eldest brother look nervous: "What do you mean, you have attracted the attention of your school?"
But Li Shu didn't seem nervous at all, he just shook his head impatiently: "No, they probably just came to see me because I dropped out of school suddenly."
The elder brother didn't quite believe this answer and looked at him suspiciously: "Then why don't you just ask you directly, or visit you openly, but use this sneaky method, you are not deliberately not telling me to cover up your mistake, or you have developed feelings for those stupid classmates of yours?"
"Oh, I have blocked them, how can I still use the two methods you mentioned?" Li Shu sneered, and then pretended to be obedient and said, "Brother, if you doubt me, you can let father judge me personally. As for your groundless suspicions, I will not waste my time answering them."
This attitude made the eldest brother feel more at ease. In fact, if the other party explained in a gentle voice, it would increase his suspicion: "You..."
Just as I uttered a word, suddenly, someone shouted: "Over there!"
Instantly, everyone rushed in the direction of the man's finger, trying to catch the guy who broke into the island. The eldest brother also looked in that direction: "It seems that the little mouse is about to be caught. For the sake of your classmates, maybe we will give them a chance to live."
Li Shu clenched his hands hanging by his side and said calmly, "They are the treasures of this class of the Infinite Power Academy. If you have the courage to kill them, I will admire you."
"Xiao Shu is so cute, but it's a pity that I, your brother, don't respond to provocation." After hearing his words, the eldest brother finally remembered that Li Shu was a student in Class S of the "Infinite Ability Academy", so his classmates were also in Class S.
That was not someone they could kill easily. After all, the Li family did not have the ability to remain undetected under the full force of the "Infinite Power Academy". His face darkened slightly. He could only hope that these uninvited students did not discover any secrets. Otherwise, even at the risk of offending the "Infinite Power Academy", they would have to kill them. After all, the secrets of the Li family could not be leaked.
Watching their backs as they left, Su Bei showed a thoughtful expression. It was obvious that Li Shu was not liked by the head of the Li family, so it was easy for others to look down on him. From what his eldest brother said, it could be seen that the original Li Shu would choose to endure in this situation for the sake of his father's love, but now he would act without scruples.
Although the explanation he gave was okay, Su Bei still saw the crux of the problem. Li Shu's paranoid care about a person's character will change his attitude towards the subordinates of the Li family. In addition to the change in mentality, the more important point is that he doesn't care so much about this so-called father.
Because now he has another person he cares about, Jiang Tianming may not be as important to him as his father, but he can definitely share some of his attention. It is precisely because he has a substitute that Li Shu does not pay so much attention to his father's thoughts.
However, these were not useful information to Su Bei. He simply analyzed them briefly, filtered out the information, and focused on more important things.
Su Bei knew very well that Lijia Island had a secret that could not be told even if his elder brother hadn't said it, so this was not the point.
The real point is - where Big Brother comes out.
Obviously, the eldest brother should have a higher status in the Li family and be more favored by his father, so he would live closer to his father. Either he lives in the same villa as the head of the family, or in the villa that is closer.
Su Bei's goal was to find the head of the family. While they were attracting the other party's attention two days ago, he sneaked into this person's room to see if he could find anything useful.
After thinking about it, Su Bei maxed out his luck and took advantage of the opportunity when their attention was drawn to walk straight into the villa next to that villa.
Although it was dark, the villa was brightly lit, probably because of the incident outside. Two pink-haired maids were guarding the first floor hall and doing some cleaning.
Seeing their appearance, Su Bei suddenly realized that the entire Lijia Island seemed to be made up of Li people, and the iconic pink hair was the best proof. Not counting the children, he had seen about 40 to 50 adults along the way, which was enough to show how large the number of Li people was.
There is a problem, there are not enough rooms on the island.
Su Bei soon realized the problem. The female doctor had said that she had been giving birth to babies non-stop. It wasn't just her. All the men and women in the Li family were giving birth like crazy, and everyone was having multiple babies.
In this case, the number of children that the adults he had just seen could have far exceeded the capacity of the island's rooms. Not to mention that there must be many adults on the island that he hadn't seen, with even more children.
Even if all the children slept in that extremely crowded bunk bed, considering the development time of the Li family, the number of rooms was far from enough.
According to Qi Huang's investigation, the Li family started from this patriarch, and there is no doubt that his supernatural power played a big role. If Su Bei did not know that there was something wrong with him, he would probably admire this first-generation rich man who started from scratch.
Back to business, judging by the number of beds, either not everyone in the Li family needs to keep giving birth, only some of them do. Or, most of the children they give birth to will not stay on the island, so there is no need for so many beds. If it is the latter, there are two possibilities for not staying on the island. One is that they died, and the other is that they were given away.
While thinking, Su Bei walked into the villa and went straight upstairs. He didn't know whether this was the villa where the owner lived, nor did he know which room was occupied. But since he had already adjusted his luck to the best, he would act according to his intuition.
Coming to the innermost room on the third floor, Su Bei first used his mental strength to feel whether there was anyone inside. After confirming that there was no one, he pushed open the door and saw the family portrait placed on the bedside at first glance.
There were only three people in the family photo, a couple, and the eldest brother whom he had just met. Su Bei raised his eyebrows, it seemed that he had come to the right place. Even if this was not the head of the family's room, it must be the eldest brother's room.
Su Bei walked up to the photo frame and carefully observed the three people in it. Of the three people in the photo, the only one he had seen was the eldest brother. The eldest brother in the photo was much younger than he is now, and looked like he was only fourteen or fifteen years old. He was grateful that he had not changed much from childhood to adulthood, so Su Bei could recognize him at the first sight.
The couple seemed to have an okay relationship, just an ordinary couple, and they looked to be in their thirties. But it is worth noting that if Su Bei remembered correctly, the Li family also started at this time.
If his previous speculation was correct, those people were able to give birth to so many children because of the patriarch's supernatural powers. Then as their first child, and one that had nothing to do with supernatural powers, it was reasonable for the eldest brother to be the patriarch's favorite.
After searching the various facilities in the room, Su Bei quickly determined the identity of the room's owner. Contrary to what he had just thought, this was the eldest brother's room. The eldest brother's room certainly didn't have as much information as the head of the family's room, but it was definitely safe.
After a quick search of the drawers, Su Bei didn't see anything useful, so he turned on the computer decisively. Not everyone in this world would set a password for their computer, even in the comic world.
This lovely brother didn't set any password, and he didn't even turn off his computer before leaving the room. Su Bei turned on the computer easily, clicked into the chat software that was still open, and checked the other party's chat history.
This is obviously a work number. There are many chat objects in it, marked as customer 1, customer 2, etc., and a total of customer 73 is marked. But the chat records have been cleared, and only the top one is left. It is a conversation with customer 34, with only two sentences in total.
——"I came today. Are the goods ready? The people I brought with me have been preparing for a long time. They can't delay any longer."
"Of course, I won't let you down."
Seeing this conversation, Su Bei immediately thought of the ship they encountered when they came here. Although the scene was very chaotic at the time, Su Bei still noticed several people getting off the ship.
There was no way, that group of people were all wearing black clothes, obviously trying to hide their appearance. It was hard for him not to pay attention to people who were obviously problematic.
However, since they entered the island, there has been trading on the island, and it has not started yet, so what he needs to do is to find the trader. As long as he follows the other party, Su Bei will definitely see what the content of their transaction is.
Wait, there is a more convenient way, that is to wait in the operating room. According to the two doctors before, there are perverts who will watch the surgery on the luxurious sofa. Su Bei guessed that the perverts here should refer to these customers, and as for the people who undergo the surgery, it should be those children if nothing unexpected happens.
At first, Su Bei suspected that they were going to give the child away. After all, many families with a little money don't want to have children of their own, and children who can be adopted at birth are quite popular. The purpose of doing a physical examination is to adopt the healthiest child.
This guess is not wrong. Su Bei estimated that some children must have been sent away. But as for the rest, there are many grown-up children on Lijia Island alone.
These children are definitely not adopted by anyone. It is possible that they are being used for human trafficking. However, if it is human trafficking, then such a detailed physical examination is unnecessary. A health certificate is enough. Why list all the data so clearly?
Thinking back to the health certificate, the data on it looked normal, except that it was too detailed. Since there was an abnormality, the problem lies in the abnormality.
Thanks to his good memory, Su Bei could clearly recall what was on the list. Unlike a normal full-body checkup, this one included a lot more data about the heart, liver, spleen, stomach, and kidneys.
Although this is a relatively routine inspection item, it is too extravagant for these consumable items that the Li family does not care about at all. It does not seem like a well-intentioned inspection, but rather seems to have other purposes.
Until I saw this chat.
It was an organ transplant, Su Bei suddenly realized.
This makes sense. The Li family gave birth to so many children to serve as organ reserves for those who are willing to pay. No matter what age group an organ is needed, Lijia Island can find it.
They have to undergo physical examinations at regular intervals for this very reason. The Li family must constantly check the condition of their organs to ensure that nothing goes wrong at a critical moment.
No wonder the Li family became rich so quickly, this kind of business is very profitable. As long as they can give birth to many children at once, they only need to pay a low cost to raise them, and then they can sell the children for a high price.
It is hard to find suitable organs these days, but there are always many sick people. In order for the patients to survive, someone must be willing to spend a lot of money to contact the Li family to buy organs.
Because the child is from the Li family, as long as the family members don't tell anyone and the person doing the transaction doesn't tell anyone, this business can be kept secret very well.
To expose them, two things are needed: one is the video of the surgery, and the other is the transaction ledger.
From the chat records, it can be seen that the buyer this time can't wait long. Even if it is obvious that someone has entered Lijia Island, the other party will definitely have surgery today or tomorrow.
Since they came so late at night, they definitely didn't want others to know about this. In this case, the operation would only be performed at night, so the video could be obtained quickly.
As for the account book, that thing may have to be found in the master's room. As for where the master's room is, Su Bei estimated that it should not be in this villa.
If the other party has the account book, then his room must be the most confidential of the confidential. It is impossible that such a secret place is guarded by only a few people. Su Bei used his mental power to detect it before entering the villa, and there were no hidden guards here.
As he walked out, he checked the time on his phone. It was 10pm, so he still had plenty of time. He needed to go back to the operating room and find a good place to put the hidden camera.
Arriving at the operating room, Su Bei couldn't help but sigh silently. He was still a step too late. Now the operating room was no longer empty as before. Several Li family members were guarding here, debugging equipment, disinfecting supplies, and arranging defensive measures...
In short, there were so many people crowded here that he couldn't install a hidden camera.
The best way now is definitely for him to hold up the camera and record the scene here. Anyway, with the blessing of the invisibility talisman, these people can't find him at all.
But the problem is that compared with the video, the account book is definitely more important. He has been recording here all the time, so he has no time to get the account book. Su Bei didn't understand the organ transplant surgery, but he thought it would not be over soon.
And there was no guarantee that the protagonists would cause trouble along the way. After all, the protagonists were all here, and it was impossible for such an evil operation to go smoothly. If he stayed here all the time, his route would overlap with that of the protagonists.
After thinking about it, Su Bei walked into the operating room. He was thankful that they didn't close the door, otherwise it would be very troublesome for him to get in. Speaking of which, he seemed to be often trapped by the door when he was invisible. Once they closed the door, it was difficult for him to open it if he didn't want to attract other people's attention.
Otherwise, I should get a prop that can pass through the wall, Su Bei thought thoughtfully.
Having been to the operating room before, he was familiar with the layout here, and had thought about where to put the camera on the way here. So when he came to work, he went straight to the wall opposite the door, pasted an invisibility charm on the micro camera, and then placed it on the vase on the windowsill.
This place is covered by leaves, and most people would not be so idle as to touch it. Of course, if he is really so unlucky and the camera is discovered, he will be in trouble.
As I said before, the account is the most important thing, and the video is the icing on the cake. He always has to make a choice.
However, Su Bei still adjusted the luck of the camera. Good luck for the camera should mean that it will not be discovered. After all, once it is discovered, it will most likely be destroyed.
He had done what he was supposed to do, and Su Bei did not waste any more time, so he turned and left the operating room. He had to find the account book quickly, otherwise once the owner realized that they were exploring the secrets of the Li family, he would probably move the most important account book to another place, and it would be difficult to find it later.
Back on the ground, there was another round of fighting, followed by a burst of fire. Qi Huang sat on the Fire Phoenix Dapeng and spread her wings, flying high in the sky. The wooden iron man Da Niao sat in front of her, shooting at the people below with a machine gun.
The machine gun in his hand was a special version, it would not kill anyone, it was just filled with anesthetic. Li Shu talked to them below: "I think Teacher Meng did not agree to you coming over. I have called the teacher and advised you to surrender immediately, otherwise you will be in trouble after the teacher comes."
These threatening words seemed to stop the S class from continuing to explore the secrets of Lijia Island. But Su Bei heard something wrong.
No matter what, Li Shu shouldn't trick everyone into coming down.
First of all, it is certain that he has not become a villain. The same routine will become boring if it is played too much. The protagonists cannot always have villains. And from Li Shu's reaction before, it can be seen that he is no longer so worshipful of his father, and he cares a little about Jiang Tianming, so he should not cheat them.
If he only wanted to save Jiang Tianming's life, he would not let Qi Huang and the others down at this time. The Li family must have a way to torture prisoners. Once Qi Huang and the wooden iron man were caught, it would be difficult for Jiang Tianming and the other two to hide, and they might even expose themselves to save others.
With this knowledge, it can be analyzed that he would not call people down for emotional or logical reasons. Qi Huang, who is now flying in the sky, can hold on for a while, even if he is not invincible. The Li family does not seem to have a flying superpower, so they are helpless for the time being.
But once they come down, we will be at the mercy of others and can only be slaughtered.
The Li family's attitude towards Qi Huang and his men was that if they didn't know the Li family's secret, they might let them go. But if they knew, they would surely die. Li Shu couldn't let anyone down without being sure whether Qi Huang and his men had discovered anything.
By inferring backwards, we can infer that even if Qi Huang and the other two came down, he should be able to ensure their safety.
And his only guarantee is——Teacher Meng Huaimeng!
