112 Vengeful Spirit 1 (1/2)
Huan Hei wished that time would stop so that he could continue hugging Ya Nuo like this. She was sitting on his lap, and intertwining their fingers repeatedly. Everything had been peaceful for the past fifteen minutes that he forgot about Gu Wing's ruckus.
Ya Nuo's sudden gasp reminded him that they still have a party to go back to. Normally, he would have snuck out secretly by himself already. Instead of entertaining clients and other people at the parties or business events, he'd rather be spending it with her. Since it is their engagement party, it is necessary for both of them to be present throughout the whole occasion.
After the gasp, she told him what she saw and asked him what his thoughts were on Mei Ching's actions. He reviewed the photos that she took on her phone and managed to recognize the material through the picture. Since she rushed out of the stock room, she didn't remove the wooden block that was keeping the door opened. He wanted to confirm his thoughts, so he went into the dusty room to touch the supplies in the box.
She asked him what he figured out from feeling the material in the box. He smirked, ”Turn off the lights and you'll see. She's pretty smart for scheming something like this.”
After turning off the lights, she saw the poster and handprints glowing slightly. She turned the lights back on, ”Glow in the dark paint? The glow is still visible, though it is fading.”
Huan Hei clapped his dirty hands and exited the room with her, ”These type of paint is rare because under normal lighting, you will see either white or transparent. The handprints were white, but once the light is off, it will appear bloody red. I complimented her intelligence in using this method because this type of paint will slowly fade by itself within an hour or so after it's been used. As long as she stored these carefully, her plan would work out accordingly. The poster is even trickier compared to this paint. It is made of very thin glass that is custom made. The person who created this poster did a splendid job because it is very difficult to make an ultrathin bendable glass with engraved glow in the dark paint. Not only that, the creepy figure painted is detailed enough to trick me if I was the one who saw it in the middle of nowhere.”
Ya Nuo snapped her finger and barged into the restroom to double check where the bathroom switch was located. ”Even if the handprints, poster, and tactic to make Gu Wing use the third sink worked, the light switch is not located by the window. She couldn't have attached a long string from the stock room to the bathroom. Plus, I saw the lights flickering on and off rapidly when she was in the bathroom before she ran out of the bathroom.”
Huan Hei stayed outside of the bathroom as they communicated, ”Other than strings, she could have done this using a different method. Even without being inside the room, she could still control the light switch without touching the switch.”
”Huh? How?”
Huan Hei beckoned her toward him with a hand movement as he quickly installed an app on his phone. She observed his phone carefully and saw that he was installing an application that is used to Bluetooth his phone to nearby light connections.
He explained to her to make sure that they are on the same page, ”As long as the lights allowed wireless access, anyone could control the lights from wherever they are. This is how I usually control the air conditioner and lamps in my room.”
She patted his shoulder, ”High tech. This old lady is all skin and bones. These high-tech stuffs are too updated for me to follow. I've heard of this, but never knew someone could easily do this to jeopardize our engagement party. I thought this is limited to households, but okay. Evidence proves me wrong. Now, more importantly, what's her purpose for doing this? Wait no, how did she prepare all this in such short notice? It's only a week or less since we sent out our engagement party invitations.”
