Chu Hengyuan patted Rong Lan on the shoulder. "It's your sister-in-law who needs your help."
Seth looked at the delicate girl who was as beautiful as a fairy. "Please tell me, sister-in-law!"
Rong Lan glanced at the ice cream in Chu Hengyuan's hand and then looked down at the one in her own. Feeling embarrassed to let Seth watch them eat, she first took Seth to buy an ice cream to ensure that all three of them had something to eat. Only then did she take Seth to show him the location of the surveillance camera.
She stood under a streetlight pole, holding the ice cream in one hand and pointing at the camera with the other. "I'd like to check the surveillance footage from that camera. I wonder if it's possible?"
Seth didn't hesitate for a second. "Sure! I'll just take sister-in-law and brother to the traffic department to retrieve the footage. It's very simple!"
Rong Lan's fox ears perked up. "Then let's go right after we finish our ice creams!"
She couldn't wait to find out which scoundrels were so heartless as to attack a pregnant woman.
Seth readily agreed. "Okay!"
Chu Hengyuan glanced at Seth, who was constantly in an excited state. He always felt that this guy had been bought over by a single ice cream from the girl.
What he didn't know was that Seth was indeed bought over by the ice cream. At this moment, it seemed as if there were bullet screens constantly scrolling in his mind, all reading - Sister-in-law is really beautiful and kind -
So, after the three of them finished their ice creams by the roadside, they all got into Seth's sports car together.
Since Chu Hengyuan and Rong Lan were in the car, Seth didn't dare to drive too fast. He drove at a leisurely pace all the way.
Fortunately, the traffic department wasn't far away. They arrived in less than fifteen minutes.
Seth walked in the front to lead the way. Rong Lan, on the other hand, held onto Chu Hengyuan's arm and followed behind Seth, curiously looking around at the surroundings.
When they reached the entrance of the traffic department, Seth was, as expected, stopped by the security guard.
Seth knew this would happen. He calmly took out his ID card and handed it to the security guard.
The security guard checked Seth's ID card while sizing him up. "Mr. Seth, are you here for work?"
Rong Lan sensitively noticed that the security guard's attitude changed after seeing the ID card. The latter's tone was clearly laced with a bit of respect. Sure enough, valuable people were always taken seriously wherever they went.
Seth looked righteous. "I lost a necklace worth 500 million. I'd like to check the surveillance footage to see if I can find it."
The little fox's eyes widened in shock. She didn't know whether to be amazed at Seth's ability to lie without blinking an eye or at the fact that Seth actually had a necklace worth 500 million.
After explaining the reason, Seth stepped aside so that the security guard could see the people who came with him. "These are my brother and sister-in-law. They were worried when they heard I lost such a precious item, so they came with me to take a look."
Chu Hengyuan nodded slightly without a trace as a greeting.
The security guard glanced at the couple holding hands, then returned the ID card to Seth with both hands and opened the door for them. "Sir and madam, please come in. It's really a pity to lose a necklace worth 500 million. You should look for it carefully."
"Thank you for your understanding." Seth took the ID card and walked into the traffic department.
Rong Lan and Chu Hengyuan slowly followed.
After entering the traffic department, Seth told everyone he met that he had lost a necklace worth 500 million. He was so sincere that for a moment, Rong Lan almost believed that Seth really had lost something.
It wasn't until after they registered their personal information that a staff member led the three of them to the monitoring room. Only then did Seth stop brainwashing people about how important his 500 - million - worth necklace was.
The staff member in charge of receiving them was an old gentleman with graying beard. After getting the address from Seth, he sat in front of the computer and did some operations. Then he turned to Seth and asked, "How many days ago of surveillance footage do you need?"
Seth silently looked at Rong Lan.
Rong Lan coughed lightly and spoke fluent foreign language. "Let's start from 48 hours ago. Thank you for your hard work." After saying that, she let out a sigh of relief.
Fortunately, she had digested the original owner's foreign - language memories while she was bored on the way. Now she was a powerful little fox who was proficient in two foreign languages.
Seeing this, Chu Hengyuan added, "Set it to 32x speed."
Watching the footage bit by bit would take who - knows - how - long. He believed that his all - powerful little fox could pick out the key information from the 32x - speed surveillance video.
Seth looked at Chu Hengyuan in surprise and then at Rong Lan in surprise. He silently stepped aside to avoid blocking their view. After all, 32x speed was really too much. He started to feel dizzy just hearing those words.
After two or three minutes, the old gentleman turned around. "I've found it. Shall I start playing it now?"
Rong Lan stood behind the computer. After making sure she could see the entire computer screen, she nodded seriously. "Start."
The old gentleman pressed the 'Enter' key, and the surveillance video started playing.
Seth took a glance but didn't force himself. He silently turned his head away.
As for Chu Hengyuan, he lasted for half a minute. The images on the computer screen were passing by so fast that he couldn't capture any useful information. So he simply turned his head to look at the girl's fox ears that were trembling nervously.
The camera captured half of the street, and the entire gate of Bai Rongran's residence could be seen in the surveillance. Rong Lan didn't feel dizzy at all when watching because she only stared at the position of the gate. She only needed to see who appeared at the gate. She didn't need to pay attention to anything else.
After watching intently for nearly two minutes, Rong Lan shouted to stop.
Almost as soon as her voice fell, the old gentleman clicked the mouse, and the surveillance image froze at a rather delicate moment.
There were a total of five men standing at the door of Bai Rongran's residence. They were of different heights and builds. They seemed to have just unlocked the door with a key. Somehow, all five of them looked in the direction of the camera at the same time. Since it was a high - definition camera, their faces could be seen clearly.
Rong Lan secretly memorized their faces.
When Seth and Chu Hengyuan saw the image freeze, they both turned their heads to look at the computer screen.
Seth took out his phone and started taking pictures of the computer screen, clicking away. While taking pictures, he also made an excuse. "These five men are all quite important. I need to remember them. By the way, can you help me check who they are and where they are now?"
The old gentleman shook his head. "No. If you want a more in - depth investigation, you need to fill out more application materials."
"I see. Then forget it." He could send the photos to his subordinates and still get the specific identity information of those people. It would just take longer than if he checked in the traffic department.
After taking the pictures, Seth looked at Rong Lan again, silently asking if she wanted to see anything else.
Rong Lan shook her head, indicating to Seth that she had already gotten the information she wanted.
