    Sheena was getting annoyed.


    “Whose mess is this? Is this your problem or mine? If you don’t get more involved, I’ll have you taken


    away by the Zimmer family’s people tonight!”


    “Don’t! I’m sorry,” Skye replied, using a tissue to wipe off the water stains on his clothes.


    Then, he reluctantly fixed his messy hair and stood up.


    Sheena continued to scold him, “Hurry up ande open the door.”


    “Coming,ing!”


    The three of them arrived at the surveince room together.


    Based on Skye’s recollection, the staff in the control room pulled up all the footage from when Skye


    entered the private room.


    They yed it at ten times the speed, scrutinizing every moment for anything unusual.


    As long as Skye was innocent, the person taking the pictures must have taken him out of the bar,


    leaving some traces behind.

    Skye had drunk too much, and the rapidly ying surveince footage from multiple cameras,


    capturing a bustling crowd, made his head spin. He felt drowsy but forced himself to stay conscious,


    fearing another round of punishment.


    asionally, Skye would discreetly turn his head, carefully observing Elliot beside him. He noticed


    Elliot’s sharp gaze, his obsidian eyes scanning through the dozen surveince videos without a hint of


    fatigue.


    Skye found it hard to believe.


    In such a fast–paced yback of multiple surveince videos, could Elliot truly spot any subtle clues by


    himself?


    However, just as Skye was contemting, Elliot called for a pause.


    He narrowed his eyes, directing the staff, “Rewind… Rewind again.”


    The surveince footage capturing Room 3805 and the adjacent corridor had a gap in the timeline from


    7.00 a.m. to 7.30 a.m. this morning. Moreover, the disyed time skipped from exactly 7.00 a.m.


    to 7.31 a.m.


    In contrast, the timestamps on the other dozen cameras remained normal, showing no unusual exits


    from the main entrance between 7.00 a.m. and 7.30 a.m.


    Sheena had an inkling of Elliot’s suspicion.

    “They must have used the staff corridor. There’s no surveince there.”


    Elliot nodded and immediately called Lionel, saying, “Focus on checking, the surveince of nearby


    hotels after 7.00 am.”


    After hanging up, he turned to the bar staff, “The surveince has been tampered with. Besides us,


    who else visited this control room today?”


    The control room staff, Shane Craig, looked troubled.


    “Mr. Jenkins, the ess records for the control room are confidential, just like your visit today. We’re


    not allowed to disclose this to anyone.”


    Elliot did not mince words and took out the National Investigation Bureau’s investigation warrant from


    his pocket, his gaze piercing and cold.


    His seemingly casual words carried a veiled threat, making Shane tremble, his legs shaking.


    “Mr. Jenkins, I was wrong! I did take some money!”


    Trembling, Shane took a bank card from his pocket and ced it on the table.


    “This is the thirty–thousand–dor hush money. I haven’t touched a penny. I guess I won’t have the


    privilege to use it, and I’m willing to turn myself in!”


    Elliot’s stern expression did not waver as he stared at Shane, asking, “Who was it?”


    “It was… Bradley, the heir of the Grande family. He came alone this morning, iming a valuable item


    was lost and wanted to check the surveince!”


    Upon hearing this, Skye exploded, “Damn it! Bradley, that bastard! I’ve treated him well, yet he dares to


    plot against me like this!”


    He was furious, ready to flip tables and smash chairs right there.
