Zhou Fang deliberately drew out her words, and seeing everyone's obvious expectant looks, she changed the subject, "Him... I won't tell you."
He laughed as he looked at everyone, then turned his gaze to Lu Yanli, who stood to the side with a cold expression, and said in a leisurely manner that was almost provocative, "Officer, don't waste time, just take me away. I admit that I kidnapped Bai Xuxu."
Lu Yanli's gaze was like a knife, coldly piercing Zhou Fang, and he said disdainfully, "Hmph, I think you don't even know who the person you're talking about is, do you?"
Upon hearing this, Zhou Fang was not annoyed at all; instead, he smiled even more brightly. He looked at Lu Yanli and said slowly, "Young man, you don't need to use provocation on me. I've eaten more salt than you've walked roads. This trick of yours won't work on me."
Seeing that Lu Yanli was about to say something more in a fit of anger, Lu An'an calmly interrupted him: "Second brother, you don't need to ask. It's not that he doesn't want to tell, but that he doesn't know who the person who helped him is."
She turned to look at Zhou Fang and smiled gently: "Am I right, Mr. Zhou?"
If I'm not mistaken, I probably won't be able to get any information about that person out of Zhou Fang either.
Zhou Fang was slightly taken aback, his expression shifting slightly before a cold smile curled at the corner of his lips, as if mocking Lu An'an's probing. "You don't need to waste your time. Provocation won't work on me. No matter how many methods you try, I won't tell you."
[Very good, it seems to be pretty close.]
Lu An'an caught Zhou Fang's momentary change in emotion, and her smile only widened: "This is not a provocation, Mr. Zhou. I am simply stating a fact, a fact that even you yourself have not yet realized."
Zhou Fang's expression changed: "What do you mean?"
Lu An'an's expression remained unchanged, and her tone was persuasive: "Literally, Mr. Zhou, that person didn't even trust you enough to install surveillance in your bedroom, so he probably wouldn't give you a chance to betray him. Let me guess, you can't even remember what that person looks like or what his name is, right?"
Zhou Fang's pupils involuntarily contracted, and he blurted out, his voice tinged with barely perceptible panic: "Impossible! I personally checked my room carefully; there's absolutely no way there could be surveillance cameras!"
"Oh? Is that so?"
Lu An'an responded softly, her gaze seemingly intentionally or unintentionally sweeping over an inconspicuous corner high up in the room.
The timing of the text message was too coincidental. Someone not present at the scene couldn't possibly have precisely timed the message's arrival. And ever since I received that message, I've had this feeling that someone is watching me from that location.
The others who heard Lu An'an's voice were startled and followed her gaze to see a surveillance camera there.
Jin Yan followed the gaze and looked around, searching for surveillance cameras. Suddenly, his eyes lit up, and he pointed to a camera that was almost blending into its surroundings, saying, "Look over there, isn't that a surveillance camera?"
Lu Wenjing examined it carefully for a while, then nodded, "Yes, let's find a way to get it down."
Jin Yan got up and planned to go to the yard to find tools. "Okay, I'll find a ladder and go up to dismantle it."
Lu An'an gently stopped her, "No need."
She casually picked up a cup from the table and fiddled with it. Looking up at the monitor, she smiled slightly and waved in that direction, greeting the person behind the camera: "I'm looking forward to meeting you."
Who exactly are you? A mysterious master?
Her voice was melodious, carrying a hint of subtle provocation. Then, with a slight flick of her wrist, the cup transformed into a smooth arc, striking the surveillance camera with pinpoint accuracy, causing it to fall to the ground.
Zhou Fang stared wide-eyed at the fallen monitor in disbelief, his heart churning with shock. "When...when was this installed?"
Looking at Zhou Fang's almost dazed expression, Lu An'an found it amusing. "That person is so cautious, how could you not have thought of that? Now that you've become his pawn, how could he possibly let his pawn betray him after being exposed? Of course he'd keep an eye on you, to see if you've been successfully hypnotized and can't remember his face or his name."
Zhou Fang couldn't hear Lu An'an's words. He felt hopeless. He had been living under that person's surveillance without even realizing it. Did that mean he could be seen running around naked in his bedroom?
Seeing Zhou Fang's ashamed and indignant expression, as if he wanted to smash his head against a pole and die, Lu An'an comforted him sympathetically: "Don't look like you can't go on living. This surveillance camera was probably only turned on when the first text message came in."
Zhou Fang's eyes were lifeless. "Really?"
Lu An'an nodded.
Anyway, the only time I felt someone watching me after I came in was just a moment ago. As for whether that person had the urge to check the security footage before that, I have no idea.
Zhou Fang perked up a bit. It didn't matter whether he had been seen naked or not now. Anyway, he was going to work on the sewing machine, so there was no point in worrying about it. However, Lu An'an had actually guessed correctly. He really couldn't remember what the person looked like or what their name was. Even if he wanted to reveal the person's identity now, he couldn't bring himself to do it. So he could only remain silent.
The air fell silent for a moment.
Lu Mingqian frowned as he looked at the surveillance camera lying on the ground and asked in confusion, "But how did that person know Zhou Fang had been arrested?"
Lu An'an tilted her head and thought for a moment.
Yeah, how did he know? Does he have connections in the bureau?
Let's rewind to the time when Fu Zhiyan contacted the police.
Moonlit Pavilion Teahouse.
A figure strode quickly into the depths of the teahouse, his steps carrying a hint of caution and reverence. He respectfully reported to the man sitting in the dim light of the tea room, slowly turning the pages of a book: "Master, the police have arrived at Zhou Fang's residence."
