Chapter 907: Beat Them at Their Own Game
Jian Ai was still wearing a bathrobe, so she didn’t go with them to look at the surveillance cameras with the staff. She only instructed them to remember to tell her if they found anything.
This matter was strange. In the past, when they were in China, they had never encountered such a thing. They had only been in the Maldives for a day, but someone had already targeted them for no reason.
Through the help of the hotel staff, they saw the surveillance cameras in the corridor when they left the room in the morning. A man in black had indeed entered their room.
However, the person was dressed in black and wore a hat and a mask. When he walked, he had deliberately lowered his head, so it was impossible to distinguish his appearance.
From when this person entered the room to when he left, less than half a minute had pa.s.sed. Although they could not see his face, this person gave off a very calm feeling. There was no trace of panic, which showed that he was an extremely experienced person.
Their expressions were not good, and they couldn’t help but look at each other. This scene was useless. The only thing they could be sure of was that someone was playing tricks.
“Everyone, be careful for now.” Xiao Zhen looked at everyone and said seriously, “It’s still unclear who this person wants to kill, but it must be one of us. Moreover, this person even knows which room we’re staying in. It’s obvious that he came prepared.”
Yun Buyao crossed her arms and leaned against the wall. With her thin lips pursed slightly, she looked solemn.
Hearing this, she looked up and said, “We escaped this time. The other party might attack again. Let’s be more vigilant. We might be able to catch this person.”
The others nodded. Before knowing the other party’s ident.i.ty and motive, all they could do was wait. As for whether the other party would take the bait, they were not confident.
When Jian Ai received the news, she had already changed her clothes and was sitting in the rest area of the hotel lobby.
“This person probably knew that you were living together, so he chose a time when you weren’t in the room to make a move,” Jian Ai looked at them and a.n.a.lyzed.
When Bai Zhou heard this, he nodded gently. “Moreover, he chose to use poison. He probably wanted to achieve his goal silently and didn’t want to cause too much commotion.”
“It’s also possible that it’s because we are in one suite together. This is a more reliable method. After all, even if we’re all ordinary people, it’s inevitable for a killer to make a mistake by forcing them to deal with many people simultaneously. Once he causes unnecessary trouble, it’ll be difficult for him to escape,” Chi Yang said.
“In short, no matter who the other party’s target is or their goal is, as long as we capture this person, everything will be clear,” Jian Ai said in a low voice.
When the others heard Jian Ai’s tone, they couldn’t help but look up at her. Yun Buyao blinked and asked, “Sect Master, have you thought of a solution?”
Jian Ai pursed her lips. “There is a way, but I don’t know if it will work. We can only know after trying.”
When they heard this, they couldn’t help but sit up slightly and listen attentively.
After a while, Jian Ai smiled and said, “The other party has obviously investigated how many of you are there. They took advantage of the moment you left the room to attack. We’ll beat them at their own game and find someone other than you to wait in the room.”
“As long as he still dares to attack, we can capture him alive.”
