Father is a villainous Buddhist disciple? He'll just be beaten into the light of the righteous

Shen Ji pretended not to hear and instead tugged at Zhao Tong's trouser leg, saying, "Uncle Zhao, when I was walking the dog just now, I had a feeling that someone was following us."

Zhao Tong was taken aback.

Shen Jiyuan and Xie Wujie were also taken aback.

Was someone following us?

How could that be? They had been following behind Shen Ji and Shang Yao the whole time and hadn't noticed anyone else at all.

Shen Jiyuan narrowed his eyes. What was this brat up to now?

Zhao Tong frowned. "Xiao Ji, have you seen the person following you?"

Shen Ji blinked, shook his head, and mumbled, "I didn't see clearly, but it looks a lot like someone."

"Who?"

"It's that blond-haired Uncle Lu who comes to our house during the day."

Zhao Tong asked in surprise, "Lu Nian?"

Shen Ji nodded. "When I was planting flowers with Shaoyao in the yard, Shaoyao said she saw someone outside the yard. Grandpa can also testify to that."

"I thought that uncle was going to give me candy again."

"That's why we had Yeye bring us out."

Shang Yao: "..."

You didn't say that before.

Zhao Tong suddenly raised his eyes to look at Shen Jiyuan, and Shen Jiyuan's brows unconsciously furrowed.

Was Lu Nian always outside the backyard before?

But why didn't the home security system detect anything? Even Xie Wujie didn't notice Lu Nian outside the villa.

What exactly does Lu Nian want to do?

Shen Jiyuan frowned and said, "I can give you a copy of the home surveillance video."

Zhao Tong hummed in agreement.

However, they did not return to the Shen family villa immediately. Zhao Tong and Xing Zhong checked the area again, set up a cordon, and then Zhao Tong called Liang Yun again.

Have him bring the technical investigation team over to check the fingerprints and other information in the vicinity.

They only returned to the Shen family villa after Liang Yun and her group arrived.

The surveillance system at the Shen family villa is located in the basement and is the most advanced security system in China. It does not require human surveillance and will automatically alarm in case of any abnormal situation.

Uncle Chung has always managed it, and there are also people who maintain it regularly.

However, the entire monitoring system at night did not detect anything unusual.

The security cameras outside the villa's backyard haven't seen a single person, not even a female mosquito.

Shen Ji frowned: [Huh? What's going on?]

Shijiu was also confused: [Wait, let me check if any data has been changed.]

[Data changed?]

A top-tier hacker can delete or alter surveillance footage without leaving a trace; the average person wouldn't even notice.

You mean Lu Nian is a top-tier hacker?

How is that possible? Isn't this kid just a high school graduate and a delinquent?

"It's not impossible..." Si Jiu said, then started typing rapidly on his small keyboard. After a while, he pointed his mini-computer at Shen Ji in the system space and said in a deep voice, "The data does indeed show signs of being overwritten!"

Shen Ji frowned and asked, "Can it be restored?"

Shiku nodded: [Okay, but it will take time.]

[Approximately how long?]

Approximately three hours.

"Okay, great! I'll give you an extra chicken leg tomorrow. Could you please help me recover the data?" He paused, then added, "If I give you the data of that anonymous whistleblower from last time, can you recover it?"

【Can. 】

Shen Ji was overjoyed and said happily, "Yay! Just tell me when you want to eat shit, and I'll have Shaoyao make it for you fresh! Aren't I loyal enough, brother?"

Yoshikawa: [...]

After reviewing the surveillance footage, the group found nothing wrong.

But the fact that there's no problem is the biggest problem.

Lu Nian's sudden appearance, the USB drive containing the data, and now the sudden appearance of "Lie Jiao"... it all seems like someone is guiding them.

Moreover, everything is related to Shen Ji.

Therefore, the lack of monitoring only makes the attempt to cover up the situation seem more suspicious.

"Mr. Shen," Xing Zhong said, "would it be possible for you to come with us to the police station to give a statement?"

When faced with matters of principle, Shen Jiyuan didn't put on airs. He nodded and said, "Okay."

Xing Zhong hurriedly went out to get the car, but the car they drove up was a police car, which could only seat three people at most, besides him and Zhao Tong.

Everyone involved in this matter tonight needs to give a statement.

So they could only let Xie Wujie get into his car, while Zhao Tong drove Shen Jiyuan's car, and the group went to the police station.

Uncle Zhong looked worriedly at Shen Jiyuan being taken away in a police car, his old face turning pale.

After a long while, he shakily took out his phone, ready to call Mrs. Shen.

He sighed, his eyes reddening.

Young master, how could you be so foolish!

Even if he disliked Miss Su, he shouldn't have killed her.

What will the young master do now?

He dialed the phone, tears streaming down his face, "Madam, something terrible has happened, young master..."

*

Giving a statement at the police station is a long process, and Shen Jiyuan was the last to go in and naturally the last to come out.

When he came out, rubbing his tired temples, he saw Shen Ji, Shaoyao, and Xie Wujie slumped over the police station's office desk, slurping down instant noodles.

Shen Jiyuan: "..."

Shen Ji, her mouth greasy from eating, looked up at him when she heard the sound, "Dad, you're out~"

"Come and eat some noodles, Uncle Zhao is generously sponsoring them!"

Shen Jiyuan glanced away with disdain. "Are you a pig? You're either eating or on your way to eat."

Shen Ji pointed to the clock on the wall and said, "Don't you even look at what time it is? How can a child grow if he doesn't eat a midnight snack?"

"Does instant noodles help you grow?"

"Well, Uncle Zhao doesn't have anything here," Shen Ji chuckled. "I've already made you braised beef noodles, and there's even a braised egg. Dad, aren't you going to have a bite?"

"No……"

Before he could finish speaking, Shen Ji scrambled onto the desk and shoved a peeled braised egg into his mouth. "Hey, why are you being so fussy?"

"Don't worry, it's not poisonous, it won't kill you."

Shen Jiyuan: "..."

A vein throbbed on his forehead, and with a dark expression, he was about to spit out the egg from his mouth.

With lightning speed, Shen Ji lifted his chin with one hand and tilted it back, then slammed his other hand on his head, effectively silencing him.

Caught off guard, Shen Jiyuan swallowed the whole egg with a thud.

Heaven.

In that instant, he seemed to see his great-grandmother waving to him.

He choked so much that his eyes rolled back.

"Cough cough cough...!!"

Shen Jiyuan choked so hard that his face turned as red as a pig's liver, his eyes bulged, and veins on his forehead suddenly appeared.

He clenched his fists and pounded his chest and throat repeatedly, coughing and coughing.

Shen Ji quickly shoved his instant noodle bowl in front of him, "Dad! Drink some soup, quick!"

At this moment, Shen Jiyuan had no energy to care whether it was plain water or instant noodle soup.

I reckon if Shen Ji were to urinate on him right there, he would drink it without hesitation.

He held the instant noodle bowl and gulped down several mouthfuls of soup.

He beat his chest and stamped his feet for a long time before finally managing to swallow the braised egg.

Fortunately, Shen Ji took a bite out of the braised egg, leaving only half an egg, and it wasn't very big.

Otherwise, he would have been fucking killed by his own son today!!

Shen Jiyuan's forehead veins throbbed like springs, his gaze as cold and fierce as the King of Hell as he stared at Shen Ji, gritting his teeth as he said, "Shen Ji!!!"

"You're fucking dead!!"
