The Man in Power After Being Married into Her Family

Merlin gnashed his teeth in anger and called his subordinate again. "Did you find any other surveillance probes? It's better if you can get footage of the other side."

His subordinate answered, "No, this is the only surveillance video that can capture the restaurant's entrance."

Merlin cursed, furious. "F*ck! I've already suggested to the mayor to allocate funds to set up a surveillance system in New York, but he's reluctant to approve it. Just look at Oskia. Their surveillance coverage rate in first-tier cities has already exceeded ninety-five percent! Look at New York! It wasn't until last year that all the subway stations were covered in surveillance!"

The subordinate felt helpless. "Sir, even if we have a surveillance system, it'll be useless. Even if we installed one hundred thousand surveillance cameras, half of it will be smashed by thugs the next day, and the remaining half will probably be demolished by homeless vagrants in exchange for cigarettes and hamburgers..."

Merlin sighed. "Forget it! Try looking for other clues."

The subordinate asked, "Should we ask the restaurant's owner? Maybe they have their own surveillance camera."

Quinn is the most popular superstar from Oskia. She deliberately came to the restaurant for a meal, so it's likely for her to be an acquaintance of the owner. If we ask rashly, we'll only startle them."

Merlin replied at once, "Don't go first.

Merlin then had an idea and suggested," How about this? Wait for the restaurant to open and go in for a meal. Then, check if there are any surveillance cameras inside. If there is, ask someone to fake a phone robbing scene outside. Get another police to go to the restaurant and ask for their cooperation to provide the surveillance video to investigate the case. Then, take the hard disk and bring it back."

Merlin's subordinate laughed at the outrageous idea. "What the... Sir, you're amazing! Okay. I'll wait for them to open and go in later."

Merlin replied with a hum and hung up the call. After that, he clicked on the video earlier and skipped to the final parts of the video. He saw Christian's car leave the restaurant first then, Merlin came out of the restaurant. After that, Quinn's car left in Christian's direction and drove out of Oskiatown.

Seeing this, he couldn't help but mutter, "I went to this restaurant with Christian after lunch and spent a long time there. It looked like no one was inside. Where was Quinn?"

He closed his eyes and recalled the time he spent in the restaurant that other day.

Soon, the image of that day appeared in his mind.

Having been a policeman for a long time, he had trained his memory to be strong. He might have missed a

u

small detail from the scene, but he had unconsciously stored the

hovel

memory in his mind like a machine and video recorder. When he recalled this memory, it was like rewinding the tape and watching it again to recapture the many details of that time.

Soon, he remembered that there was a wooden staircase on his right. When he and Christian went into the restaurant, he didn't pay much attention to the stairs. But in his memory, the stairs weren't empty. He remembered seeing two people's legs going up the stairs. He immediately confirmed that Quinn must have gone up with another person when he and Christian at the restaurant.novelbin

He muttered to himself, "Who is the other person? Is he the manager? Or is that kid who silenced Xavion when Homer was kidnapped the other day?"

As he thought of that, he recalled

Charlie's performance that day. He began to ponder,' That kid was fearless and fought Xavion's aggression bravely. He's very

confident, but why? That was t

Fox family's territory. If he had accompanied Quinn to Homer's charity dinner, he should have been aware of the Fox family."

He should've known of the Fox family's power, but he didn't take Xavion seriously at all. Is he incredibly powerful, or is he simply crazy?"
