Zhang Zian stared at the monitor. Captain Sheng and Yu Fei were focusing on Zhang Zian's face and trying to figure out any sort of hint from his facial expression. However, Zhang Zian quickly glanced at the monitor and said, ”Okay. I am good.”

Captain Sheng and Yu Fei were even more confused. They felt that Zhang Zian was either faking or hiding his real power.

Zhang Zian requested seriously, ”And I have another request.”

”What is it?” Yu Fei asked.

”Did the stealing happen on the fifth floor?” Zhang Zian confirmed again.

”That's right,” Captain Sheng replied.

”Okay. I request to turn off all the surveillance cameras.”

The request was unexpected. Captain Sheng was quiet for a second and said, ”I understand your request because what you are going to do might reveal your trade secrets. However, I don't have the power to make this decision.” He then looked at Yu Fei and the ball was thrown to Yu Fei's court.

”Well…” Yu Fei was not sure. Although Zhang Zian was the expert that Captain Sheng brought over, what if anything happened on the fifth floor while the surveillance camera was turned off?

Zhang Zian couldn't care less, ”Yes. It relates to my trade secrets which I don't want to reveal. If that's too much to ask for… Captain Sheng, can I still reimburse my taxi charges for this trip?”

”Okay! I will make this decision,” Yu Fei decided. ”How much time do you need?”

Zhang Zian thought for a second, ”Half an hour to an hour.”

”Okay!” Yu Fei operated the surveillance system and the monitors on the fifth floor all turned off at the same time.

”Mr. Zhang. How is it now?” He asked.

Zhang Zian was satisfied, ”That's great. Thanks. Please don't turn it back on before I come down.”

”Should I come with you?” Captain Sheng asked.

”Nope. You can go back to where you were. It is the weekend. Go home and have fun with your family. When I am done, I will report to you no matter what the outcome is,” Zhang Zian said. ”I have to reimburse my taxi charges, remember?”

Captain Sheng was surprised, not because of Zhang Zian's rejection of his company, but in his reminder to go home. He thought of secretly conducting Zhang Zian's background check and thought about his parents who had passed away. Captain Sheng started to really like this young man.

Captain Sheng was having problems with his wife. That was why he went back to the office on the weekend. He meant to stay away from his wife, but that made her even more mad at him.

He sighed and said, ”You are right, Mr. Zhang. I will go home and come back before noon… Oh. Should I bring you some food? Or do you want to order take-out?”

Zhang Zian replied without hesitation, ”If it isn't too much trouble, please bring me some food from home.”

”Well, that's fine but I only have some normal homemade food. Nothing fancy,” Captain Sheng reminded him.

”That's fine. Homemade food is great! I have too much take-out these days.”

Captain Sheng looked at him intently. Then he put his hat back on and said to Yu Fei, ”I will come back in a bit. Please take care of everything here.”

Seeing Captain Sheng drive off, Yu Fei asked, ”Mr. Zhang, what is next?”
