Chapter 271: Checking the Surveillance Cameras

Jeffrey didn’t think that they could really find the person who set the fire, but thinking that they could investigate with Caroline, he felt that this was a great opportunity, so he simply agreed.
Thus, the four of them moved to a club outside the school. Caroline pointed at the two of them and introduced them, “This is Ken and this is Morton. Both of them are experts in gathering information.”
She pulled out a chair and sat down. She asked Jeffrey, “You said that you found some suspicious points and suspected that the fire accident was not an accident but an arson. Do you have any evidence to support your argument?”
Since they were going to work together, he didn’t hesitate and showed them the restored surveillance video.
“Because the fire happened too suddenly, and the police’s attitude was rather strange, it made me suspect that things weren’t as simple as they seemed, so I sneciallv asked for the surveillance video. Then. I found something amiss.
There were traces of the surveillance video being covered and tampered with, so I secretly contacted a very skilled hacker to restore the surveillance video.”
He paused the mouse, and the scene paused at the scene where the man in black bent down to pick up the black stick. “It turns out that there were suspicious people entering and leaving the planetarium that night.”
Caroline was puzzled. “Since you found out such a crucial thing, why didn’t you contact the police and let them handle it?”
Jeffrey’s lips curled into a disdainful smile. “They didn’t even notice that there was a problem with the surveillance cameras. I don’t think they can provide me with more effective help.”
He was just short of directly saying that the people raised in the police station were blind and deaf.
Caroline also laughed. “In that case, I have to thank you for trusting me so much.”
Jeffrey spread his hands. “After all, I can’t find a more suitable candidate.” Now that they had finished chatting, it was time to get down to business.
The black-shirted man in the surveillance camera was covered from head to body. His appearance and obvious physical signs were not revealed.
Therefore, it was almost impossible to find out the identity of this person from this surveillance camera. They could only try to expand the search area and see if they could find any useful information from the time when he entered the planetarium.
This was undoubtedly a time-consuming method. There were more surveillance cameras installed in the school, so it was easy to investigate.
However, the surveillance cameras installed outside the school were scattered. Many places did not even have surveillance cameras, so there were many loopholes. It was very inefficient to investigate.
Moreover, if they wanted to get these surveillance cameras, they would have to use some small tricks. This part could only be handed over to Ken and Morton.
As for the surveillance cameras on campus, as Edwin’s fiancée, Caroline still had a little privilege, so she called Principal Brown, who quickly sent over the surveillance cameras on campus that night.
Unfortunately, the two of them looked through it carefully twice, but they did not find any suspicious people in the school that night.
Caroline: “If this person didn’t appear on campus that night, could he have hidden in the planetarium?”
“Compared to this, I think there is another possibility.” Jeffrey speculated, “There are so many surveillance cameras in the planetarium, but only one captured his whereabouts. Moreover, he had to come out to pick up something because he dropped it, which exposed him to the camera. Therefore, I suspect that this person’s anti-reconnaissance awareness is particularly strong. He Imows how to avoid the school’s surveillance cameras.”
Caroline frowned. “If that’s the case, then this person must be very familiar with the school’s situation. Could he be a staff member of the school?”
Jeffrey deduced from the man’s agility that he had received professional training and was not an ordinary person. However, he did not deny Caroline’s guess. “We can’t rule out this possibility. After all, all the faculty members who can be recruited into Alexandria College are quite capable. Who knows if there are some really powerful people among them?”
In the next two days, they checked all the surveillance cameras in the vicinity, but they could not find any suspicious targets. They could only turn their attention to the school staff first to see who was the most suspicious person who appeared in the school that day.
This also required Principal Brown’s cooperation.
Although Alexandria College was the Anderson family’s property, it was not good for Principal Brown to directly reject the request of the future mistress of
the Anderson family..
