Lao Wei put a USB flash drive on the long table in Carl's room and said: "This is all the surveillance videos of the hotel from last night to an hour ago. Except for the toilets and dormitories, which are not monitored, everything else is here."
Lao Wei patted his little heart, "Fortunately, our hotel doesn't have any security department. The surveillance room is usually handled by the big brothers from the Qinghong Gang, and none of them came to the hotel today. I easily made a copy.
Come down."
Karl expressed his gratitude to Lao Wei for possessing him, "Senior, please excuse me. By the way, have you deleted the video of you entering the monitoring room?"
Lao Wei patted his chest and said, "Don't worry when I do the work." After saying that, Lao Wei approached Karl with a stern look and said like a grandson, "Junior, why do you want the surveillance video? Did you discover something?
Something's wrong? Is there anything else you need help from, senior?"
Karl looked directly into Lao Wei's eyes, smiled and shook his head, "Senior, if there is any progress, I will inform you. By the way, if you see Zifeng soon, I hope you can let him come to my place. I
If you have anything to do, come to him."
Lao Wei immediately became energetic, rubbed his hands in excitement and said, "Is there really going to be some big action? Then junior, I asked to be the vanguard, the senior is actually very powerful."
Seeing that Karl had no intention of speaking, Lao Wei quickly waved his hand, "Okay, okay, I won't ask anymore, I won't ask anymore, I'll go find Zifeng right now."
Karl bowed to Old Wei very politely, "Excuse me, senior."
"Oh, I can't stand it. I can't stand it."

After Weslin left, Karl held the U disk in his hand, came to the wooden table and chairs by the floor-to-ceiling window, sat down gently, and inserted the U disk in his hand into his laptop.
Soon, the dark surveillance footage of the hotel appeared on the computer screen.
Dozens of surveillance areas, large and small, appeared in front of him.
Karl pushed up his sunglasses gently and without any hesitation, he called up the surveillance video in front of his room from 12 o'clock last night to 7 o'clock this morning.
Opening a can of coffee, Carl increased the speed of the surveillance video to eight times.
A still picture flashed quickly in front of Karl's eyes, and he stared motionlessly at the almost still picture on the screen even if it was played eight times.
A faint blue light bloomed slightly from the demon's eyes. Karl raised his right leg, crossed his hands on his belly, and secretly calculated in his heart.
After finishing chatting with Senior Xiaobei at 12:15 last night, I returned to the room.
At 1:08, go to bed and rest.
Woke up at 6:14 in the morning.
Karl took out the pad of paper in his arms and turned his eyes slightly.
It should have appeared during this time.
Karl took a sip of the coffee in his hand and stared at the monitor screen with his magic eyes.
About fifteen minutes later, a small object flying quickly flashed across the surveillance screen. Karl frowned and quickly pressed the pause button with his right hand.
The surveillance footage was slowly played back, and finally the time was fixed at around 4:27 this morning.
Carl clicked the play button.
In the dark surveillance footage, a short piece of paper appeared out of thin air in the corridor of the hotel. It seemed to be held by someone and floated from the front of the corridor to the door of his room.
He saw the note paused in front of his door. After a pause of about two seconds, it began to fall slowly at an extremely irregular and completely unnatural speed.
Seeing this, Karl frowned slightly and already understood most of it.
After replaying it three times, Karl pushed up his sunglasses and whispered to himself.
"Female, about 1.63 to 1.68 meters tall, with the ability to become invisible, sneak, or blend into the surrounding scenery."
His slender index finger gently tapped his temple. After thinking for a while, Karl took out his mobile phone and quickly dialed a number.
"It's me, transfer to the college immediately and pick up Professor Vlad."
Five seconds later, Professor Vlad, who was working far away at Vandro College, heard the phone on his desk ding.
"Which one?"
"Hello, Professor, I am Karl. Professor, I now need detailed information on all the personnel of the Tianchao branch." After a pause, Karl said in a deep voice, "Including the abilities of each of them."
Professor Vlad was silent for nearly a minute.
"Give me four hours."
"Thank you, Professor."
Putting down the phone in his hand, Karl dialed a number again.
"It's me. How is the investigation going? It's been sent to my mobile phone, right? What did you say? Say it again."
Listening to the voice on the phone, the expression on Karl's face became much heavier. After a while, Karl nodded gently, "Okay, I understand. Take good care of his family and express my condolences for me. The family will never
His contribution will be forgotten."
After hanging up the phone, Karl sighed deeply.
And almost the next second after Carl hung up the phone, his computer received an email that was encrypted.
After opening the mailbox and entering the complicated password, Carl saw the content of the email.
There was no text on it, just a photo, a photo that made him shiver all over after reading it.
The photo slowly zoomed in, and Karl's expression had never been so solemn as it was now.
Subconsciously holding on to the small note in his hand, holding on to the note that was placed in front of his door early this morning, Karl slowly unfolded the contents on the note.
Looking at the photos in the email and the note in his hand, Karl's pair of dark blue magic eyes seemed to see through everything in the note.
With his lips pursed slightly, Karl softly read the five words on the note.
"Lab."
"Blood Servant."
——————————
The chopsticks in Huang Xiaobei's hand fell to the ground, and Miss Yiyi also lowered her little head.
Looking at Old Uncle Liu standing in front of the door, his trembling back, Huang Xiaobei and Miss Yiyi looked at me, and I looked at you, and their faces showed that this was indeed the case.
Picking up the chopsticks that fell on the ground, Huang Xiaobei sighed.
I knew it, I knew these dishes weren't made by you. Oh, why bother? Uncle, look at it now, are you embarrassed and thrown into grandma's house?
Miss Yiyi called Uncle Liu very considerately.
"Uncle, let's eat. The food is getting cold."
The uncle stood still, obviously waiting for a fatal blow from some master of complaints.
Seeing this, Miss Yiyi secretly kicked Huang Xiaobei, who was waiting to watch the show. Commissioner Huang rolled his eyes at her, but also shouted.
"Uncle, let's eat first."
Hearing this, Old Uncle Liu turned around and raised the cold dish given to him by the restaurant opposite.
"Well, I, I'll go and add another dish for you."
The corner of Huang Xiaobei's mouth couldn't help but twitch.
"Don't be tired."
——————————
After sitting back at the dinner table, Old Uncle Liu only stayed in awkward silence for a minute before regaining his energy.
Not to mention that the older people get, the thicker their skin becomes, let alone someone like an uncle who is naturally a bit cheeky.
Sitting at the dinner table and picking up the tiger bone wine that Huang Xiaobei bought for him, Uncle Liu poured a glass of wine like a normal person and said, "Come on, let me try how this tiger bone wine tastes."
"
Picking up the wine glass, Old Uncle Liu drank it all in one gulp.
Then he quietly put on his own bottle of liquor.
How should I put it, this wine is quite refreshing, but it has such a strange smell that it makes my whole body feel uncomfortable after drinking it, and even the hair on my head is irritated.
How to describe it? It always feels like drinking that low-quality liquor with a lot of messy things added in it...
But Commissioner Huang on the side asked a question with very little discernment.
"Uncle, does it taste good? Is it delicious? You know, I spent sixty, that six hundred to buy it! It definitely tastes good, right?"
Old Uncle Liu's face turned a little yellow, and his throat kept shaking up and down. He wanted to continue following what Commissioner Huang said, but in the end, under the strong stimulation, Old Uncle Liu only said one sentence.
"Eat, let's eat."
————————————-
An hour after the call was made, Karl was in his room.
After watching all the surveillance videos in the hotel, Karl, who was sitting in front of the floor-to-ceiling window, stretched out his index finger and tapped his temple gently.
She was very experienced. She did not appear in the hotel, but entered directly from outside the hotel. The surveillance camera could not capture her appearance at all.
It is certain that she is not a member of the hotel, but the possibility that she has been hiding in the hotel cannot be ruled out.
With his arms crossed on his chest, Karl silently stared at the surveillance images flashing quickly on the computer screen, thinking secretly in his heart.
It seems that we need to check the surveillance video of nearby streets, but it may be a little troublesome.
Picking up the phone and dialing another brand new number, Karl ordered in a deep voice.
"I need all the surveillance videos within one kilometer of the Tianlong Hotel. It's best if they can be delivered tomorrow."
"Besides, if possible, send the things to me tonight. Well, I understand."
Silently, Chu Zifeng appeared behind Karl.
"You are looking for me."
Hearing Chu Zifeng's cold voice, Karl hung up the phone in his hand, with a thick smile on his face.
My decision to invite you to come to China was really wise, otherwise it would have been quite troublesome for me to rely on myself under the current situation.
With his back to Chu Zifeng, Karl sat elegantly in front of the floor-to-ceiling window, staring at the bustling and noisy city outside the window, Karl asked with a smile.
"Aren't you busy now?"
Chu Zifeng nodded, "Yeah."
Huang Xiaobei could happily go to his uncle's house for dinner, but they couldn't because there were still many things waiting for them to deal with.
Staring at the high-rise buildings outside the window, Karl pushed up his sunglasses, his tone still so calm, "I received a strange note this morning. I won't tell you the specific content, but Zifeng, now there is
I hope you can do something."
Chu Zifeng listened quietly.
"It seems that the opening ceremony of the Devil's Party Hotel will be at eight o'clock tonight. I hope you can go and take a look."
Chu Zifeng looked directly at Karl's back and said coldly: "What do you need?"
Karl raised his eyebrows slightly and said with a smile, "A lot. For example, the personnel allocation of the Demon Party here, and the abilities of each of them, plus whether this competition will be participated by people from the Demon Party, or a special chef will be hired.
, I want to know all these."
Karl stood up, exhaled gently, turned around, faced the stern Chu Zifeng, Karl shrugged his shoulders.
"If we want to be more specific, it is the three places we know about the manpower distribution of the Devil's Party. The Chu Group, Mingyuan Building, and the underground laboratory in the suburbs. The Devil's Party all have their personnel here.
How many people, I need all of these."
Chu Zifeng frowned slightly, not wanting to be Karl's errand boy, and responded coldly.
"The Bollen family should be able to help you find out this."
Karl shook his head and smiled bitterly, "I have asked them to go to the laboratory in the suburbs, so I can only leave it to you in Mingyuan Building."
As he spoke, Karl pushed up his sunglasses, with a deep smile on his face, "I'm not just asking you to inquire about information, Zifeng, I hope you can be discovered by the people of the Demon Party and let them know that you are here today.
We’ll be at Mingyuan Building tonight.”
Chu Zifeng gradually narrowed his stern pupils.
"What exactly do you want to do?"
Karl looked at him with a smile and refused to say a word.
"You'll understand."
——————
The afterglow of the setting sun fell into the floor of the room through the floor-to-ceiling windows and shone on Karl's body.
At this moment, Karl's whole body was wrapped in the warm sunshine. His gentle smile, coupled with his handsome facial features and just the right amount of sunlight, made Karl look so dazzling.
Facing such a handsome man, Chu Zifeng calmly stated without blinking.
"The laboratories in the suburbs should have been destroyed by us. Except for a few seniors from the North American branch, there should be nothing worthy of our attention."
"Besides, after the last raid, the demon party will not fail to strengthen their vigilance. It should be difficult for your people to infiltrate, because they are not me."
Karl turned around and turned his back to Chu Zifeng.
"I just want to make sure of one thing."
Without any hesitation, Chu Zifeng shook his head and said, "Do you want to know how they extract our abilities? It's difficult."
Hearing this, Karl folded his arms and turned to look at the cold Chu Zifeng in front of him, with a bright smile on his handsome face.
He is always smiling and has a gentle smile all the time.
But seeing the smile on Karl's face, Chu Zifeng's expression became much gloomier.
He is hiding something from himself.
"Zifeng, actually I'm not too interested in that technology, because even if we get it, it's impossible to do it, and we're not a demon party. Such evil technology is still too..."
"What on earth did you send them to do!"
Chu Zifeng ignored Karl's joke, stepped forward, and asked coldly.
Those stern pupils met the blue magic eyes.
The smile on Carl's face disappeared.
Also after one glance, Karl took the initiative to avert his gaze and no longer looked at Chu Zifeng.
After pondering and weighing for a while, Karl pursed his lips, nodded and said, "Okay, actually there is one thing I haven't told you. Of course, I can tell you now."
"That day in the basement in the suburbs, in addition to meeting the seniors from the North American branch, I also discovered a blood servant."
