C630 – Lock on Position
Upon hearing the news, Liu Dashan was slightly troubled.
“The surveillance footage has been taken by the police,” he said.
Su Ming simply nodded, then pulled out his phone to call Captain Wu.
”Mr. Su?” Captain Wu sounded weary and somewhat surprised to receive the call.
“Captain Wu, I’ll get straight to the point. Are you aware of the incident involving Ann Chuxia being secretly filmed?”
Su Ming didn’t beat around the bush.
”What?!” Captain Wu was clearly taken aback. “Mr. Su, how did you come to know about this? We’ve kept it under tight wraps. Has the information been leaked?”
“No, that’s not it. Miss Ann and I are friends. She called me to ask for assistance,” Su Ming clarified over the phone.
“Oh, I see…” Captain Wu was still surprised. He hadn’t expected Mr. Su to have such connections, to be friends with a celebrity. But then again, it made sense, considering who Mr. Su was.
“May I ask why you’re calling, Mr. Su?” Captain Wu inquired eagerly.
”Captain Wu, I need the surveillance camera, not the footage itself,” Su Ming stated.
“This…” Captain Wu hesitated, “Mr. Su, it’s not that I want to deny your request, but this is somewhat against protocol…”
“Captain Wu, I have a way to track them down.”
The source of this c𝐨ntent is freeweɓnovēl.coɱ.
“Really?!”
“Absolutely.”
“Okay, Mr. Su, please hold on. I’ll have someone deliver the item to you immediately!”
Captain Wu trusted Su Ming implicitly and didn’t hesitate to personally deliver the item.
Meanwhile, Su Ming had already booted up his laptop and inserted the super virus USB drive. Little Qing stood behind him, watching intently.
In his mind, Su Ming was conversing with Yuvyuv.
“Yuvyuv, can you pinpoint their location?”
“I can, Master, but only their previous location. I can’t determine their current whereabouts; they’ve definitely moved,” Yuvyuv responded mentally.
”That will suffice,” said Su Ming with a nod.
Shortly after, Yuvyuv managed to lock onto the suspects’ last known position through the surveillance camera.
“Captain Wu, they were last at Apartment 403 in Building 5, Tianrong Complex on South China Road.”
“I think they’ve already relocated, and the video has likely been copied multiple times,” I mused.
“Still, Captain Wu needs to check it out,” Su Ming suddenly interjected, turning his head.
Captain Wu, standing behind us, looked utterly bewildered.
Just like that? Found it?
The tech team at the police station had been working tirelessly to pinpoint the location, but they could only narrow it down to a vague and broad area. Precise localization required a significant amount of effort.
Yet, with Su Ming, it was just an average laptop.
And he pinpointed the location immediately?
Despite his surprise, Captain Wu didn’t question Su Ming. Without hesitation, he dialed a number and led his team out.
“They may have moved, but once we review the neighborhood’s surveillance footage, there’s no way they can hide.”
“The crucial issue now is to prevent the video from being leaked.”
Su Ming offered a slight smile, his eyes resting on the USB drive.
Time to flex some muscle!
Without further ado, Su Ming clicked on the USB, revealing a single file.
Double-click.
“Ding! Would you like to activate the super virus?”
“Activate!”
“Ding! Please issue a command to the super virus!”
“Remove all footage recorded by this camera from the internet!”
“Ding! Command received, mission underway…”
Meanwhile, in a white van.
A slender young man, donning a hat and mask, was at the wheel. Beside him, a middle-aged man rested with his eyes closed, silent.
In the back, three young men chatted.
“Haha! We’re going to be rich, so rich!”
“Absolutely. We’ve hit the jackpot this time.”
“People will pay a pretty penny for this script.”
“It’s just too bad the surveillance camera was spotted. The cops are on our tail now.”
“They won’t actually find us, will they?”
The trio murmured among themselves.
”No need to worry,” the middle-aged man reassured them, slowly opening his eyes. “They can only determine a rough 500-meter radius. They’re nowhere near pinpointing our exact location, and besides, we’ll soon be out of Eastsea.”
“By then, they’ll have no chance of tracking us down.”
His words brought waves of relief and joy to the three young men.
“Wow! This is fantastic!”
“Haha! We’ve hit the jackpot this time!”
“Boss, you reckon this could fetch at least a few million, right?”
The three asked eagerly, as the young driver turned to join the conversation.
“Yeah.”
The middle-aged man closed his eyes again. “Roughly speaking, four or five million shouldn’t be a problem.”
Hearing this, the trio was ecstatic, each anticipating a cut of eight or nine hundred thousand at least.
What a lucrative deal!
The middle-aged man chuckled inwardly. [You have no idea that what I’ve told you is merely a fraction of the true value. Selling this script for ten to twenty million is well within reach!]
A general plot outline wouldn’t fetch such a high price, but the crux was that Ann Chuxia had been seated right under a surveillance camera.
She had scrutinized the script with great attention.
Essentially, the entire script had been captured on video.
This script hadn’t been released publicly; it was kept under wraps. If it got out and someone else remade it first, the original creators would be powerless.
This is the age of quick money-making.
Once the script is sold, the buyer will undoubtedly rush to produce the movie and release it ahead of everyone else.
And it’s sure to be a hit!
Add a few popular young actors and stunning actresses, and raking in a few billion would be a breeze. The production company alone could make a hefty profit of several hundred million.
Spending ten or twenty million on a script is a small price to pay!
Handing over four or five million to these four fools and pocketing the remaining ten million-plus is simply delightful!
“Don’t get ahead of yourselves. We need to keep this script safe.”
“You’re all free right now, so start extracting the script page by page. It’s best to convert it into a paper version for added security.”
The middle-aged man suddenly remembered and quickly instructed.
“Got it!”
They nodded in agreement.
They hastily powered up their computers and pulled up the video.
But as soon as they opened their laptops, they were dumbfounded.
“Hahahaha!”
A massive skull suddenly flashed on their screens, cackling with its mouth agape.
That was just the beginning.
After its laughter, it delivered a chilling message.
“The script has been deleted, game over!”
“The computer’s location has been pinpointed, and the police are on their trail!”
“Best of luck to all of you!”
