It was evening. The atmosphere inside this surveillance room of the White Palace is quite tense and feels like calm before the storm. And, the eye of the storm is none other than Nicolas himself.This scenario is what happens an hour after Leila and Emily were abducted. But, it was quite puzzling for the soldiers inside because, according to the investigator from the Police Division is that, base from the evidence that they have, it turns out that Leila and Emily were not the one that is abducted but in fact, the two guests that went inside the comfort room after them is the one that has been abducted and the culprit is Leila and Emily.
But, Nicolas believe that this scenario is only a diversion that the enemy has planned to divert the investigation of this case and made Leila and Emily, which in his own intuition is the real victim in this case, to be the mastermind in this kidnapping case.
So, it might be confusing you on what really happened on the night that Leila and Emily were kidnapped. And so, here is what they saw from the surveillance video.
The time is ten thirty in the evening. It was seen on the video that there are three women that went inside the comfort room which is situated outside the hall room and is in the farthest part of the hallway. These two women is none other than Leila, Emily and Lt. Madrigal.
A minute later two women who was also known as one of the guests from other country, also went inside the comfort room. Five minutes later, Leila and Emily went outside the comfort room while the two women were supported by Leila and Emily and they seemed to be unconscious or maybe they are unconscious due to too much drinking. They were seen to be walking towards the entrance of the White Palace.
On another surveillance video which is near the entrance of the White Palace, the time is ten-forty in the evening when Leila and Emily together with the two unconscious women were stopped by the soldiers that guard the door. The soldiers seemed to be asking about what they had wanted to do and why they are going out the White Palace when it"s not yet time for the party to end.
It was unknown how they had convinced the soldiers because Nicolas strictly told his soldiers that none of the guests should be left to wonder outside until the party ended but, maybe they told the guards that their companion is already drunk and needs to rest now because of their early flight the next day.
The soldiers that guard the door did not really let them go easily but they had escorted them until their service car stopped in front of the entrance of the White Palace to fetch them. Nothing seems to be amiss because they were still escorted by the same soldiers that accompanied them for the last few days though their convoy became longer because the soldiers who guarded the other two guests accompanied them. The scenario was still the same until they reached the gate of the White Palace and went on their way back to the hotel.
At eleven in the evening, this surveillance video is caught from the intersection that is a few minutes away from the hotel. It was only a few blocks away before they reached the hotel, the car where Leila and Emily together with the two guests were in suddenly turned left once they pa.s.sed an intersection when the real pathway is to turn right.
The soldiers were quite baffled by this scenario but due to their strong intuition they know that something is amiss with this situation and so they quickly followed the speeding car.
But, they never thought that the driver of the car is very skilled because after only five minutes, they lost their target.
They hurriedly looked for the GPS detector because they had installed a GPS on every car of the guests for their own safety but it was only three minutes when they reached the location of the car that they had followed but they found out that the car is already abandoned inside a dead end alley.
The soldiers immediately informed Nicolas of what had happened and now an hour later, the party had already ended a few minutes ago but, they are still here inside the surveillance room and were currently tormented by this chilling atmosphere.
Nicolas believed that this scenario was only played out by the real mastermind to put the blame towards Leila and Emily and in fact the whole scenario was really full of flaws.
First of all, when Emily entered the room although she still could walk normally but there was this scenario where she had almost slipped up maybe because she herself is already drunk and is just fighting her drunkenness. But, once she had exited the comfort room it seems like she became fully energized and her drunkenness had vanished and she could now walk normally like what happened earlier is just an illusion. So, that whole part is already suspicious.
Next, he believe that base solely in Leila"s current condition she won"t do something as supporting a drunk person when she was completely aware that she"s pregnant and must not lift up or support heavy things or person.
Next, they found Lt. Madrigal inside the comfort room unconscious but as she is still unconscious, they had no means to know of what truly happened inside the comfort room because there is no surveillance camera inside the comfort room.
Though you may have notice some flaws in these scenario but what they had not expected is that maybe the kidnappers are skilled of disguises.
Nicolas believe that the kidnappers might have swapped their clothes with Leila and Emily and maybe they have some face mask to change their appearance and so the soldiers couldn"t identify if the person in front of them is real or fake. Also, they may have use some voice changing device that really fooled the soldiers guarding the entrance.
Though, Nicolas believe that the evidence were all only a diversion and he already told the investigator that Leila is innocent but, the investigator just said that not until Lt. Madrigal awakened, they could not guarantee that Leila and Emily were really the real victim or what-not.
And so, this lead to the current situation inside the surveillance room which has a very terrifying aura lurking inside it due to Nicolas" bad mood as he really wanted to rescue Leila right away but without any info yet, from the soldiers that they had dispatched earlier to search for any clues that will lead them to Leila and Emily"s location, he could only stay inside this White Palace and wait for any info that his subordinates will transmit to him.
Nicolas had already watched this surveillance video for almost an hour now and he had replayed this video for almost a hundred times already but still without any further clues from it he decided to went out of this surveillance room to go to his father"s location and maybe to ask for help. After Nicolas exited the room, the remaining soldiers inside all sighed in relief as the eye of the storm has now stormed out of the room and now they could finally hold out their breath and relax a little bit before their Commander come back.
