Chapter 308 Successfully Obtained the Data
Both of them were on guard on their way here, so the surveillance cameras did not capture them.
"It seems the item is on the third floor. As we agreed before, we'll split into two groups. The main switch is located around here. Once you turn off the power, leave immediately."
Song Qianyi frowned and shook her head. "No, it would be more dangerous for me to be alone with you. I'll go back to the lounge on the first floor and wait for you after the power is cut off."
Otherwise, when Andrei realizes what's happening and goes to check the rooms, Ji Jingshen won't be able to explain it clearly on his own.
Ji Jingshen hesitated for a second before agreeing, watching as he secretly sneaked into the third floor to retrieve the experimental data after Ji Jingshen left.
The man peered out the window and watched as all the lights downstairs went out in an instant. Taking advantage of the chaos, he quickly climbed inside.
Although they had obtained a map of Andre Manor in advance, they did not know where he had put the things, so they could only look for them in the study first.
But there are only tables and bookshelves inside; there isn't even a single computer.
Ji Jingshen frowned deeply. It was impossible that there wasn't even a safe. Something was very wrong.
He glanced around at the furnishings, then finally focused his gaze on the two enormous bookshelves, betting that there must be some hidden mechanisms or passages inside.
Hearing the noise outside, he knew his time was running out. He quickly searched the bookshelves and finally found something amiss in a corner.
This area was noticeably more worn than other parts. Pressing down slightly caused the entire bookshelf to move on both sides, quickly revealing a secret room inside.
Without hesitation, he quickly walked in, casually picked up a document, glanced at it, and frowned. This document contained evidence of Andrei's unauthorized establishment of a laboratory, his use of the laboratory for illegal activities, and the Andrei family's smuggling activities.
It was truly effortless; so I quickly took pictures of everything here using the camera I had prepared beforehand.
After finishing everything and putting things back in their original place, just as I was about to leave, I heard Andrei's voice at the door. I didn't expect him to come up so quickly.
There would soon be nowhere to hide in this room. The secret room from before would be completely exposed once the door was opened, and hiding inside would only be suicide.
Finally, the man's gaze fell upon the bookshelf. There was a gap on the top shelf; if he was lucky, he could hide inside.
As the conversation outside grew closer, Ji Jingshen quickly climbed onto the bookshelf. Looking at the narrow gap, his face darkened. How was he going to get in?
Suddenly, the study door was opened from the outside. In a flash, Ji Jingshen squeezed himself into the gap and listened intently to their conversation.
Why did the power suddenly go out in the manor?
An Anlele's voice sounded somewhat anxious as his subordinate beside him reported, "Our people are still investigating, but we should have news soon."
Hiding in the corner, Ji Jingshen breathed a slight sigh of relief. It seemed that Qianyi was alright for the time being.
Andrei anxiously entered the room, opened the hidden compartment, and found that the documents were still there and had not been moved. He was completely relieved and left the room with his subordinate.
"Check each room one by one to see who is missing!"
Tell him directly that this was definitely done on purpose, and "find some other people to watch over the study. If anyone approaches, arrest them immediately."
Those things must never be seen by anyone.
"Yes."
Having overheard their conversation, Ji Jingshen climbed down from the bookshelf and only left quickly after confirming that their footsteps had disappeared.
It was clearly stated in the case just now that if he didn't leave, he wouldn't be able to leave.
While anxiously waiting in the lounge, Song Qianyi suddenly heard knocking outside the window. She sat up abruptly, rushed over, and saw the familiar face. She breathed a sigh of relief and hurriedly opened the window to let the person in.
"Don't worry, I'm fine. I've already got everything. We'll go back after the banquet."
As Ji Jingshen changed his clothes, he handed the camera to Song Qianyi, but suddenly there was a knock on the door.
It was Andrei's voice coming from the doorway.
"There was a little trouble at the manor just now, so the power went out. It's back to normal now. Are you alright?"
Song Qianyi was startled and somewhat at a loss, but fortunately Ji Jingshen reacted quickly and immediately hugged her in his arms, his words slurred.
"Get lost! Don't disturb my good time."
Almost instantly, Song Qianyi understood his meaning. Soft sobs came from the room. Andrei was stunned for a moment, then realized what the two of them were doing in the room.
His expression shifted unpredictably, but his words were extremely respectful.
"Alright, since you're not here any longer, feel free to call the servants if you need anything."
Andrei left their room with a cold face. He must have gone mad to suspect that the power outage was related to this good-for-nothing third young master.
A rich kid like him probably hasn't even seen a circuit board before; he must be overthinking it.
"After the banquet tonight, I'll have someone renovate this room."
How disgusting.
After hearing the sound of someone leaving the door, the two who were hugging each other breathed a sigh of relief and quickly cleaned up the mess in the room.
Despite the power outage, the banquet was very enjoyable.
When Ji Jingshen and his companion came out of the lounge, most of the people had already left. Adams was still sitting on the sofa drinking with Andrei while waiting for them.
"Brother's leaving. Don't invite me to these boring banquets anymore. They're pointless."
The man walked out looking annoyed, completely ignoring Song Qianyi beside him.
Adams shook his head helplessly at the sight. "I'm sorry, my brother has caused you trouble tonight."
Andrei shook his head with a smile. He only hoped that there would be more good-for-nothings like this in the Adams family.
But watching their departing figures, he suddenly narrowed his eyes. Upon closer inspection, the two men's figures seemed somewhat similar to Ji Jingshen.
Upon thinking of this, his expression immediately turned cold.
"How's the investigation into Ji Jingshen and his group going?"
"Ji Jingshen's daily life is very regular. He either goes to the company or goes home, while Song Qianyi basically stays at home taking care of the children and rarely goes out."
Andrei frowned, feeling that something was amiss. "Go and investigate again. Find out where this young master Adams came from, and his fiancée."
It's understandable if a family like the Adams wants to find someone to marry into, but isn't Song Qianyi being too tolerant?
Her fiancé dared to flirt with another woman right in front of her, and didn't complain at all.
