Chapter 58 Suspicious Points; Shen Mao Arrives
Chapter 58 Suspicious Points; Shen Mao Arrives
Not long after Butler Su came out, a large crowd gathered outside the old man's door.
At 9:10, the old man's door was opened again, this time by Butler Su.
However, less than two minutes later, Butler Su came out again.
This time, Butler Su didn't close the door, so everyone gathered outside rushed into the room.
At 9:15, Dr. Luo was dragged into the old man's room by Butler Su.
The video ends here.
For Su Qing, everyone in the video was a stranger. She suspected everyone equally and did not show favoritism to anyone, so she observed each person carefully.
After observing, Su Qing felt that Xu Xiang was the most suspicious.
However, she always felt that the old housekeeper who appeared in the video at 9:10 was a bit strange.
"Second Miss, the old master is looking for you."
Su Qing was watching the surveillance video when she suddenly heard the butler's voice.
Su Qing subconsciously looked up and saw the old butler standing beside her.
After seeing Shen Baisu off, Su Qing didn't immediately go back inside. Instead, she sat on a stone bench in the courtyard watching the surveillance video. The old housekeeper had come to the courtyard looking for her.
"Huh? Is this the CCTV footage outside the old man's door? Where did you get it, Miss?"
As soon as Su Qing looked up, the old housekeeper saw a familiar scene on her phone.
Su Qing nodded at him, and then truthfully said, "It was given to me by my junior sister."
Upon seeing this, the old butler immediately asked, "May I take a look?"
Su Qing hesitated for two seconds before handing the phone to the old housekeeper.
After taking the phone, the old butler looked at it carefully. When he saw Xu Xiang entering and leaving the old man's room, the old butler exclaimed angrily, "This Xu Xiang, it really is him."
"Seven o'clock? He entered the monitoring room at seven-fifteen, so he must have been there to delete the surveillance footage."
After listening to Butler Su's words, Su Qing turned her head and glanced at him.
It seems the old man has already confirmed that Xu Xiang was responsible. But if it was Xu Xiang, why was Su Yan also beaten?
Could it be that he was injured while protecting Xu Xiang?
"what?"
Just as Su Qing was wondering, she suddenly heard the surprised voice of the housekeeper, Su, and Su Qing subconsciously turned her head to look.
"What's going on? How come I entered the old man's room twice after nine o'clock in this video?"
"After I noticed that something was wrong with the old man, I immediately went to see Dr. Luo."
As the housekeeper spoke, he handed his phone to Su Qing, saying, "Second Miss, how do I go back on this? Could you go back on it for a moment so I can take another look?"
Su Qing's eyes were deep. After taking the phone, she awkwardly dragged the progress bar to 9:10. "Is this it?"
Butler Su: "Yes, this is it!"
"9:10? This person is definitely not me! I went to find Dr. Luo. I called him outside his door for almost ten minutes. Considering the time it took to go back and forth, how could I have come back so quickly? This person, the one who brought Dr. Luo back, is me."
"Who is this person, pretending to be me to enter the old man's room?"
"His actions are so furtive, he must be plotting something. Maybe he wants to harm the old man. Second Miss, where did you get this video?"
"Please have someone check again, follow the direction this person left in and check the surveillance footage. I want to see who he is."
Butler Su was very angry, but also a little scared.
The fact that so many people gathered outside the door didn't realize that the butler in the video was an imposter means that the other person must look very much like him. If he did something bad in front of everyone, wouldn't the butler be the one to take the blame?
Whether it was because of his threat to the old man or because he was impersonating him, Butler Su would investigate thoroughly. Therefore, he repeatedly urged Su Qing to find out the truth.
Su Qing agreed to Butler Su's words, then immediately sent a message to Shen Baisu, and then went with Butler Su to see the old man.
Neither Su Qing nor the butler told the old man about the person impersonating Butler Su. However, after this incident, Butler Su stayed by the old man's side almost every step of the way, and even slept on a makeshift bed in the old man's room.
**
Shen Baisu was unaware of the Su family's situation; she had already returned to the Shen family's old residence.
When the car stopped, she was on the phone because Su Qing had sent her a message saying that she wanted to track down the whereabouts of the "Butler Su" who appeared at 9:10.
So she called her online friend again.
"Didn't we just check it last night? Why are we checking it again? Am I just a tool for you to check surveillance footage?" Clearly, netizens have complaints this time.
Shen Baisu was not flustered upon hearing this. Instead, she said to her in a persuasive tone, "Checking once is the same as checking twice or three times. Please help me check one more time."
Netizens simply scoffed, "Ha, after this investigation, will there be four, five, or six more?"
"More than a month ago, you said you would treat me to dinner if you checked it for me, so where is the dinner?"
"I haven't even treated you to the meal I promised, and now you want me to investigate? Do you really think I'm a sucker?"
"I'm not investigating this time, unless you send me money."
Shen Baisu: "Giving money is no fun. You should help me investigate properly, and I'll take you on a cultivation journey in the future."
Netizen: "...Heh, you're a damn immortal."
"Are you going to send money or not? If not, I'm hanging up."
Upon hearing this, Shen Baisu clicked her tongue softly, "Hit."
After hanging up the phone, Shen Baisu immediately transferred the money to her.
After the transfer, the netizen's attitude immediately changed, even fawningly replying, "Sister Su, please wait a moment. I'll definitely find out everything clearly for you within half an hour!"
Shen Baisu put away her phone and went inside.
"Grandma, I'm back."
As soon as she entered the room, Shen Baisu called out to the two people sitting in the living room, and they both turned to look at her.
"Susu's back? Come sit next to Grandma." The old lady waved to Shen Baisu as she spoke.
Sitting next to the old lady, Shen Mao stared intently at her, a deathly smile playing on his lips. "Third brother, you're back?"
Meeting Shen Mao's death stare and his smile, Shen Baisu knew that the matter of feeding Shen Mao the medicine earlier was still fresh in everyone's minds.
Although she knew the visitor was up to no good, Shen Baisu remained calm. She looked directly at Shen Mao and said, "So Dad's here too. You look so much younger after just one week. I almost didn't recognize you."
Upon hearing this, Shen Mao paused for a moment, and even the corners of his mouth involuntarily turned up.
Shen Baisu: "Is it because the medicine I gave you is working?"
Upon hearing this, Shen Mao's face instantly turned cold.
"You rebellious daughter, how dare you say that!"
"Do you know that it's because of your medicine that I have diarrhea..."
Shen Mao suddenly stopped talking halfway through his sentence.
He had never told anyone the secret that he had diarrhea in his sleep, and if he were to reveal it now, he would have kept the secret for a whole week for nothing.
"Who are you calling a rebellious daughter? Who are you calling a rebellious daughter? My granddaughter is so well-behaved, how dare you call her a rebellious daughter?" Shen Mao stopped talking, but the old lady was very angry and slapped Shen Mao on the back twice.
Shen Mao quickly reached out to stop her, saying aggrievedly, "Mom, don't hit me! Don't you even ask what your precious granddaughter has done?"
The old lady snorted, "What can she do? You have no right to scold her no matter what she does! How much of your responsibility as a father have you fulfilled? Do you only think of her as your daughter when you're disciplining her? I raised Susu, and it's none of your business to hit or scold her!"
Shen Mao: "..."
