Chapter 57 People Who Went into the Monitoring Room

The group looked at Shen Baisu with different expressions, each with their own thoughts, so no one spoke.

Finally, Butler Su spoke first, "Can the deleted videos really be recovered?"

Shen Baisu nodded.

Butler Su looked at the old man and asked for his opinion, "How about we have Miss Shen contact her friend and ask him to help recover the video?"

Just as the old man was about to answer the old butler's question, he heard Su Yan speak with a cold laugh, "Don't forget, she and Su Qing are friends. As a suspect, who knows if it's reliable to have her friend recover the video?"

Upon hearing this, Xu Xiang immediately chimed in, "Yes, there are more than just Ms. Shen's friends who can recover surveillance videos. I think we should find someone else to do it."

After listening to their conversation, Su Qing frowned. She looked at the old man and said, "Grandpa, since Junior Sister said her friend can fix the video, then it must be..."

"No need to say any more." Before Su Qing could finish speaking, the old man interrupted her directly, "I will investigate what happened tonight. It's already very late, so let's end it here and go to rest."

After Old Master Su finished speaking, he turned his head and glanced at Butler Su.

Upon meeting the old man's gaze, Butler Su immediately understood and saw everyone in the room off.

So, only the butler and the old man remained in the room.

Five minutes later, the staff member on duty in the monitoring room knocked on the door and came in. It was a man with half-gray hair wearing a security guard uniform.

The man walked in timidly, looking frightened.

"Old sir, Butler Su." The man greeted the two of them tremblingly.

Butler Su looked at him and asked, "Are you on duty tonight?"

The man nodded tremblingly.

Butler: "What time period were the deleted surveillance videos from?"

Man: "The surveillance video from this morning until 9:30 pm has been deleted."

Upon hearing this, both the butler and the old man frowned. Butler Su, his brow furrowed, asked with displeasure, "So many cameras in the house, were they all deleted?"

Upon hearing this, the man immediately shook his head, "Only the surveillance footage outside the old man's door has been deleted."

Fearing that the old man and Butler Su would be angry, the man immediately added after answering the question, "There is a newly installed camera at the entrance of the monitoring room that can see who enters the monitoring room. I checked before I came, and today, besides Xiao Liu and me, only two other people have entered the monitoring room."

Upon hearing this, Butler Su's expression immediately changed, and he asked impatiently, "Who?"

The man's expression became uneasy. He looked at Butler Su, then at the heavens, and after a long while, he stammered, "It's...it's the young master and the eldest young lady."

Upon hearing the man's words, Butler Su and the old man's expressions immediately changed.

The man noticed the change in their expressions and trembled even more violently. However, he still forced himself to add, "The young master entered the monitoring room at around 7:15, and the young lady entered at 9:28."

After the man finished speaking, the room fell into a long silence.

After a long while, Old Master Su raised his hand and waved to the man, "Go down. Don't tell anyone about this."

The man, feeling as if he had been granted a pardon, readily agreed and then turned and left quickly.

After the man left, Butler Su looked at the old man and tentatively asked, "Old Master, how should we handle this matter?"

The old man rubbed his temples, looking troubled. "Let me think, let me think."

If Xu Xiang was behind this, the old man would not hesitate to send him to jail. However, it's highly likely that Su Yan was also involved. She's his granddaughter, and even if she might want his life, the old man doesn't want to hurt her.

Moreover, if the police were to get involved, they would inevitably question him about the Illusion Grass, but he didn't want outsiders to know about its existence. So, he really needed to think it over carefully.

"It's late, you should go to sleep too, go ahead."

The old man sat on the bed in a daze for a while. Finally, he looked at Butler Su and urged him to go and rest.

Butler Su was worried about leaving the old man alone, but judging from the old man's appearance, he seemed to want to be alone for a while. Therefore, Butler Su did not suggest that the old man stay, but left the room with several glances back.

Before closing the door, Butler Su reminded the old man, "Old man, if anything happens, remember to call me anytime."

The old man nodded in agreement.

**
The next morning, the old man called Su Yan and Xu Xiang into the room.

According to the people standing outside the door, the old man had a huge tantrum. When Xu Xiang came out, he was limping, and Su Yan had a cut on her forehead, as if the old man had hit her with something.

Upon hearing this, Shen Baisu didn't react much, but simply said to Su Qing, "It seems your grandfather doesn't intend to take legal action against Xu Xiang and Su Yan."

After hearing Shen Baisu's words, Su Qing said, "He's probably afraid that Su Yan is involved too."

No matter what, Su Yan is still his granddaughter. Even if Su Yan really wanted him dead, the old man couldn't bear to be cruel to her.

Shen Baisu nodded in agreement, and then headed out of the Su family mansion.

Someone is trying to harm the old man, and Su Qing is probably unable to get away for the time being. Shen Baisu plans to go back to the old house to keep the old lady company first.

As for the Su family, she believed that Su Qing could handle it on her own.

As soon as Shen Baisu and Su Qing stepped out of the Su family's gate, the Shen family's driver stopped the car outside. Shen Baisu waved to Su Qing, then opened the car door and got in.

Before the car drove away, Shen Baisu rolled down the window and said to Su Qing, "I sent you a small gift. It's on your phone. Remember to check it."

Upon hearing this, Su Qing's curiosity was piqued, and she immediately took out her phone to take a look.

"Ding dong ding dong"

She had just taken out her phone when two messages popped up. The first was a video sent by Shen Baisu, and the second was a sentence sent by Shen Baisu.

Junior Sister: [Video]
Junior Sister: After watching the video, you'll know who poisoned you.

Looking at the message sent by Shen Baisu, Su Qing muttered to herself, "Poison? This junior sister has probably not touched herbs for too long. She has even forgotten the name of the Illusionary Grass and directly called it poison."

After muttering to herself, Su Qing directly opened the video sent by Shen Baisu.

The video is a bit long, but thankfully you can fast forward.

Su Qing started looking around after she left. Apart from Su Yan, who went in right after she came out, only Butler Su and Xu Xiang had entered the room before the old man fell ill.

At 7 p.m., it was the third time Butler Su had checked on the old man since he fell asleep. At this time, his expression was still normal, so the old man should be fine.

At 7:10, Xu Xiang entered the old man's room and came out in a hurry a minute later.

At nine o'clock, Butler Su opened the door for the fourth time and glanced at the old man. This time, Butler Su's expression was clearly flustered.

One more chapter, I'll finish writing it tomorrow and post it then.
