Ming Li's face was expressionless as she watched the two police officers bow. They then placed the laptop on the table, opened it, and plugged the USB drive into the computer's port.
"Ding dong!" The computer emitted a faint sound.
One of the officers sat down on the sofa, placed his hands on the laptop's keyboard, and began typing with a flurry of activity.
Before long, a surveillance video appeared on the laptop screen, the very segment that had been destroyed in the prop room.
At this moment, the officer typing on the keyboard removed his hands, pushed the computer towards Ming Li, and said, "Miss Wen, our precinct received this surveillance footage this morning. After verification by our professional personnel, it has been confirmed to be genuine. Please take a look. Do you recognize the person in this recording?"
Ming Li's gaze flickered indifferently across the computer screen before moving away. Her voice, devoid of emotion, uttered three words: "Yes, I do. And very well..."
Hearing this, the two officers sat up straight and asked with bewilderment, "Who is it?"
Ming Li's lips curved slightly as she calmly spoke three words: "Shangguan Qing."
The two police officers: "..." You mean the Shangguan Qing from the Shangguan Group?
Ming Li raised an eyebrow, as if sensing the officers' thoughts, and replied coolly, "Yes, the Shangguan Qing from the Shangguan Group."
The two police officers: "..." Good heavens, that's confirmation! Suddenly stumbled upon an earth-shattering scoop, what to do now!
Ming Li heard the voices from within the room and uttered two words indifferently: "It was me."
Upon hearing the familiar voice, Wen Yan quickly stopped typing, slammed shut the laptop on the table in front of him, and then casually picked up a book from the side, opening it.
Wen Yan placed the book on the table, stood up, and hurried to the door, opening it.
Seeing Ming Li standing at his room's doorway, Wen Yan nervously raised a hand to scratch the back of his head, an attempt to mask his somewhat flustered state.
Ming Li looked at the visibly nervous Wen Yan standing before her and asked meaningfully, "What were you just doing?"
"N-nothing, I was just reading!" Wen Yan said, his eyes darting away.
"Oh, really?" Ming Li's gaze swept indifferently over the book Wen Yan had placed on the table, her expression suddenly turning peculiar. "You're quite something, reading a book upside down."
Hearing this, Wen Yan's expression froze. His gaze followed Ming Li's to his desk, and he discovered with horror that in his haste, he had accidentally placed the book upside down.
Wen Yan: "..." Damn it! So careless!
