She was not someone who would lose her composure. She suddenly thought of what happened yesterday and quickly told Academician Bai Bo everything.

“Didn’t I tell you to contact me immediately if there’s anything wrong?”

Academician Bai Bo was not angry at Yuan Xiao for losing her train of thought. Instead, she was angry that she did not contact him after knowing that someone had entered the room.

Yuan Xiao also felt a little guilty. “The front desk said that the cleaning staff came to clean, so I didn’t take it to heart. I’ve also checked the room, so I didn’t tell you.”

Academician Bai Bo exhaled heavily. “Fortunately, you’re fine. If anything happens to you, how will I explain to your family? As for the thing you lost, I’ll go to the front stage to ask later and look at the surveillance cameras.”

“I’ll go with you!” Yuan Xiao said.

Academician Bai Bo nodded and agreed.

The two of them arrived at the front desk. When they found out that they were here to look at the surveillance cameras, the front desk actually chased them away impatiently. “Not everyone can look at the surveillance cameras just because they want to. You don’t have the right.”

“We lost something. Can’t we look at the surveillance cameras?” Academician Bai Bo was very angry. “If you’re like this, we can only call the police.”

Unexpectedly, the front desk was not afraid when she heard about the police. “If you want to report it, report it. However, the surveillance camera footages are not something that can be seen casually.”

When Academician Bai Bo heard her say this, he realized that they were overseas.

Of course, some police would defend locals, not outsiders like them, so it was very likely that their complaints would be delayed for various reasons until they left.

This was also one of the reasons why the front desk was so fearless.

Yuan Xiao stared at the front desk. What she had accidentally seen last night flashed across her mind. She remembered that there was a middle-aged man standing at the front desk. She thought that he was here to get a room, but he seemed to be chatting and laughing with the front desk.

However, later on, this middle-aged man followed another woman upstairs. At that time, the front desk also saw the two of them. In that case, this front desk was very likely a mistress, and the watch that the middle-aged man was wearing was a high-end brand. He should be relatively rich.

Next was the woman who went upstairs with the middle-aged man. She was wearing custom-made clothes from head to toe. She was someone important too, it seemed. Thinking about it this way, the middle-aged man was very likely a freeloader to freeload.

She had only seen it by accident yesterday and did not take it to heart, nor did she think of clarifying their relationship. However, when she saw the front desk today, yesterday’s memories suddenly surfaced in her mind. In that case, don’t blame her for being rude.

Hence, Yuan Xiao looked up at the front desk and said firmly, “You’re a mistress.”

Academician Bai Bo was even more shocked when he heard this. He quickly pulled Yuan Xiao and was about to speak when he heard the front desk’s slightly terrified voice. “Y-You must have been sent by that woman, right?”

Academician Bai Bo was stunned on the spot. If the front desk had such a reaction, Yuan Xiao might be right.

If she had something on her, it would indeed be easier to handle. Therefore, Academician Bai Bo let go and let her say whatever she wanted.

Yuan Xiao did not say anything else and just stared straight at the front desk.

Although she did not say a word, the front desk staff was still so frightened that she broke out in cold sweat. “You want to see the surveillance cameras, right? Look, look. I remembered wrongly just now. You can look at the surveillance cameras.”

That was because when she called the front desk, Yuan Xiao glanced at the time on her cell phone and knew that it was before 8:40. This could be considered to have narrowed the range greatly.

The surveillance cameras could capture the entrance of her room. 10 minutes later, a man appeared on the surveillance footage.

The reason why she noticed the man at a glance was mainly because his posture was too sneaky.

The boy was holding a white card in his hand. He stuck it to the lock of the room and the door opened. The rest was self-evident.

However, although the surveillance cameras captured the man who stole, they did not capture his face. It was unknown if it was a coincidence or something, but no one captured the face of the person who stole.

However, Yuan Xiao felt that this was not a coincidence. The man clearly knew where the surveillance cameras would capture him. Coupled with the fact that the front desk had refused to let them see the surveillance cameras, it was very likely that the front desk knew who this person was..
