Chapter 730 - Investigation of the incident in LA Medical Center (1/2)
Sarah shared her thoughts: ”The logical conclusion I have is that someone is watching that hospital, probably because of Anna. And that someone is probably working in the hospital and providing information to others. Those four we captured are definitely not medical staff.”
Aiden agreed with what Sarah said. He was also thinking about it and his conclusions are almost the same. There is one question that is almost stuck in his throat: ”Do you think that this was caused by one of those… Eastern European families?”
As much as Sarah wanted any other assumption, there was only one which matched what they know: ”Who else would watch a hospital where Anna is working and target Sophia? You saw them fight. If it's a US gang, they would come with guns or tasers… I hear that taser guns are recently popular. You heard them talk… that is a Russian accent. So, yes. I believe it's related to those families. And it's probably my maternal family. That is the only thing that makes sense in this whole story, but we will know for sure when Anna comes and brings the truth serum.”
Sarah paused for few seconds and then continued: ”There is one thing we can check before that… Eve said that she can't erase security footage because someone is streaming it…”
A minute later, on the big screen, Sarah and Aiden were looking at the data that Eve retrieved before removing video surveillance from LA Medical Center.
Both of them were surprised by what they found out.
”Three streamers? I'm on it.” Aiden claimed this as his task.
It is unusual to have one person streaming. That person would need to know when and where to hack into in order to see something useful… and this is not one, this is three. It only confirmed that there are people out there who are watching them. And those people knew that they will be there, and that there will be trouble. The questions now are: WHO was watching and HOW did they know when to watch?
It didn't take long for Aiden to identify physical locations based on the IP addresses where video was streamed. Both Sarah and Aiden looked at the data in disbelief. Three locations are with zip codes in: Seattle, Reno, and New York.
Of course, Sarah is very familiar with the address from Seattle, and Aiden knows who lives on that address in Reno.
Sarah was rubbing her temples: ”Now we know why our parents came here… they watched us and probably got worried that we are in trouble. They came to check on us.”
Aiden looked at timestamps of connections. ”First connection was opened from your parent's house, three minutes later my parents watched the feed… and about at that time, the connection from New York was established. New York connection has different protocols than other two, which means that it's originating from a different party. However, Seattle and Reno connections have a lot in common.”
Aiden's eyes shifted from the screen to Sarah. ”Who is this person watching us from New York? And who in your family's house has the capability to know that at that exact time there will be a show to watch? Not to mention skills necessary to hack into hospital security system and to start a stream like watching a home video.”
”Your parents also watched.” Sarah reminded him.
”My parents know how to use computers, but their skills are not more than of an average home user.”, Aiden reluctantly added.
