Lin Muci made up her mind.
She would visit him under the guise of Bai Jian’s fiancée.
When she saw the handsome young police officer again through the small window of the detention center.
Lin Muci was greatly surprised; she almost didn't recognize him.
Bai Jian looked far too haggard.
His beard had not been shaved for a long time.
His eyes were bloodshot, his cheeks bore many bruises and wounds, and his gaze was filled with deep despair and pain, making her heart ache!
Lin Muci gasped.
"How could this be..."
"Your face?"
Bai Jian shook his head, his voice hoarse.
"It's a long story."
"How can you be here to visit me? They said no outsiders are allowed to see me."
Mentioning this, Lin Muci coughed.
"I'm your little fiancée."
She winked at Bai Jian. He was initially surprised, then understood the girl's good intentions.
He gave a bitter smile.
"You don't have to do this; it will only implicate you."
Lin Muci looked innocent.
"I'm already here, and if I leave now, no one will believe we have no connection. I came to ask if there's anything I can do to help you. You helped me before with my campus bullying incident, so I want to help you in return."
Her reason was well-given.
Bai Jian fell silent for a moment, gazing into Lin Muci’s eyes.
A faint, shimmering cold light flickered in Bai Jian’s eyes as he said,
"This matter of mine is very tricky and troublesome... you can't help me."
Lin Muci smiled.
"That's not necessarily true."
...
When she came out, Uncle Li was waiting for her outside.
"Is it very tricky?"
Lin Muci shook her head.
"I can handle it."
Bai Jian was indeed very unlucky. He was the kind of person with the worst luck; the cases the police got involved in were all major ones, his superiors ostracized him, his colleagues dared not help him, and he was framed and imprisoned. It was indeed difficult to overturn.
But—
Since Lin Muci had taken action,
The outcome would be different.
"Go to Tengfei Building."
This was not Lin Muci's first time at Tengfei Building. Tengfei Building was where Lin Muci had previously completed a mission to find a treasure box.
The car stopped by the roadside, and Lin Muci saw a woman dressed in a luxurious fur coat hurriedly exit Tengfei Building and get into a top-of-the-line Mercedes.
Was that Mrs. Ling?
She fell into thought.
When she went to visit Bai Jian in prison, Bai Jian had only made small talk with her on the surface, but in reality, he had written the four characters "Tengfei Building" on her palm!
Lin Muci was very smart. She glanced at the camera overhead, and Bai Jian gave a barely perceptible nod.
She understood.
The system was also impressed by her quick wit.
"The main system told me not to remind you, but you actually discovered the secret."
"Bai Jian did indeed hide a personal camera in Tengfei Building, and this camera has been operating in secret all along."
"He was framed for killing a key witness, but the truth is not that. He was set up. However, other cameras were removed, leaving him unable to defend himself."
Lin Muci didn't quite understand something.
"Why didn't he tell the judge that he had hidden a camera with the real truth in court?"
The system said meaningfully.
"Do you think anyone gave him a chance to speak? If not for that, why would he have become so malevolent? So, you must make this matter public and expose it completely to everyone, preventing that invisible hand lurking in the darkness from causing further harm."
"Do you understand?"
Lin Muci paused, nodding seriously.
"I understand."
She said this lightly and clearly.
The car stopped outside the building, and Lin Muci went inside.
With an entire building this large, finding a tiny hidden camera was undoubtedly an extremely difficult task.
She discussed it with the system.
"Give me a hint."
The system displayed its shrewd merchant nature.
"One hundred points. I'll give you a hint."
Lin Muci wished she could grab it and beat it soundly.
She knew the system could manifest a physical form!
However, after entering this world, it had been too unreliable, so it was probably afraid of being caught and beaten by Lin Muci that it had been guiltily refusing to appear.
"Dream on."
"At worst, I'll search here for three days and three nights, and I won't give you any points. I worked so hard to earn them."
The system couldn't help but mutter.
"I don't think you worked that hard... being kissed and hugged by Ling Qianhe, is that considered hard work?"
"You have no idea what I've gone through to fight for your interests with the main system! That's what you call enduring hardships. What you've experienced is mere child's play compared to me..."
Lin Muci snorted.
"Stop talking nonsense, I don't want to hear it."
"Fifty points. Fine if you don't give a hint, I'll find it myself."
She moved lightly through the corridors. Her fifty points were exchanged for winning the Newcomer Award at a previous awards ceremony. The system sighed and reluctantly agreed.
"Alright, alright."
"Here, here."
"Sob sob, this is a huge advantage for you. If the accounts aren't balanced, I'll have to pay a great price, woo woo woo..."
A three-dimensional map of the building appeared before Lin Muci!
And on the map, a tiny light spot emerged.
Lin Muci walked towards the light spot and understood why the system was crying and complaining to her, because the camera was indeed difficult to find.
The camera was hidden in the ventilation duct overhead.
She asked Uncle Li for help in removing the camera. Uncle Li seemed a bit surprised.
"Eh? This is the latest model. Xiaoci, you came for this? You could have just told me."
"Although this building is large, there are only a few locations that can capture crucial areas, and the places suitable for hiding cameras without being discovered are even more limited."
"By elimination, it can be found quickly."
"Wait, I'll help you extract the video from it."
Only then did Lin Muci realize.
Uncle Li was a former special forces soldier! And the most formidable of them all!
If she had him, what use was the system?
The little system let out a silly giggle.
"No refunds or exchanges here."
Lin Muci suddenly asked him.
"If I can save Bai Jian, doesn't that count as changing his fate? For a major character like him, the points would be more than a hundred, right?"
"If I can clear his malevolence value, will I get another reward?"
Don't think she couldn't do anything about the system!
The system servilely flattered her.
"Yes, yes, Host is wise and powerful! That's exactly right. Host can definitely get higher rewards."
Lin Muci nodded, lost in thought.
It wasn't a complete loss, then. She had to see the contents of the camera.
Then, she had to find a way to let the video out inadvertently.
She returned home, took out the storage card from the camera, and began to view the recorded content.
Most of it was trivial and boring fragments, but as she fast-forwarded through the footage, Lin Muci saw a scene that made her heart pound with alarm.
It was Mrs. Ling!
She was intimately close with a middle-aged man.
Then she seemed to whisper something in his ear.
She took a screenshot and enlarged their faces.
That woman was definitely Mrs. Ling.
As for the man...
She began searching online.
"Gou Hongguang. Overseas Chinese."
"First-grade Superintendent of Interpol."
She quickly clicked on the subsequent clips.
Bai Jian had clearly told the witness to step back to protect him.
But suddenly, a stray bullet pierced the witness's chest. The witness's eyes widened, disbelief flashing in his gaze. The stray bullet penetrated his chest, and blood flowed out continuously.
Then he fell.
Bai Jian turned around in shock, but police officers had already rushed out, handcuffing him immediately, without any buffer time whatsoever. He was taken away directly.
This video was sufficient proof.
Bai Jian was framed!
Lin Muci knew how to save him.
But how should the earlier video be handled—did Ling Qianhe know about the relationship between Mrs. Ling and this man?
Lin Muci thought this video might help Ling Qianhe in the struggle for the family fortune.
Otherwise, should she send it to him through an anonymous mailbox?
He definitely wouldn't discover it.
