109 Dangerous Woman (1/2)
Any audio recorder or spy camera would emit a wireless signal whereas wired signals were used for official equipment like security cameras and the like. Therefore, it was not hard to detect these things. The simplest method, if one did not have a specialized device to detect wireless signal, was to turn on one's phone or wireless radio and walk around the place. If there was an interruption to the sound, there was a wireless signal nearby. However, people would not normally do that. This was not a spy film, who would be so free‽
It had to be said that Han Chu knew his friend well. That golden retriever had managed to plant a bug inside the slit of the sofa from a simple visit. If not for Ye Shuang's superhuman hearing, discovering that bug would not have been easy.
The detector Yao Zhixing brought was meant for a car, so while it was usable, its range was rather small, only about five meters. It was a temporary measure. Ye Shuang had to carry it and walk around her house for it to work. To be fair, it would be more convenient if Ye Shuang just walked around the place with her phone on. At least she could hear signal distortion within a ten-meter radius.
However, Ye Shuang understood to not look a gift horse in the mouth. Ye Shuang accepted it and strolled around the house. She did not discover a second bug—it looked like Anthony only managed to sit in the living room for a while before being dragged by Little Brother Ye to play his game. The time was too short for him to be able to leave any other toys.
Perhaps, the one bug was simply out of habit; just as kleptomaniacs could not stop themselves from taking something, this golden retriever could not stop himself from leaving something. In other words, it was not his intention to spy on other people's lives.
After confirming there was no trash left in her home, Ye Shuang thanked Yao Zhixing and sent him away. She sat in the living room, and at around midnight, Little Brother Ye finally returned home.
”Come here, inspection time.” Ye Shuang waved at Little Brother Ye, and the latter jogged over happily and allowed Ye Shuang to inspect him like airport security. There was no problem, so Ye Shuang placed Little Brother Ye in the guest bedroom while she returned to watch her shows.
Since she had no case, there was no job. It meant that she was free to lazy about. Ye Shuang was very satisfied with her current life, but there was nothing interesting on the television, especially around midnight. Therefore, the television was merely there as background noise. She had other concerns on her mind.
Miss Bai's contract was confirmed. When she returned to San Lin City in a few days, Ye Shuang would bring the lawyer and Anthony to meet her, and after that, the contract was wrapped up. She was only required to check in once in a while.
So, where should she find a new case? Han Chu worked on an international stage and would not focus on developing a particular city. Therefore, this time, she was lucky. If she did not actively reach out next time, she probably would not have a case for another year.
Therefore, widening her social circle was a must. Other than Fang Mo and Yao Zhixing, Ye Shuang was still relatively unknown in San Lin City's upper society. Han Chu was right; she had to make herself seen at those high-end clubs that he recommended. The price of admission was high, but at least there was free air conditioning. Of course, she had to be careful not to just stalk one particular location. This way, her shifting gender would not matter or attract the suspicion of other people.
Midnight passed, and the memory influx soon began. Compared to before, the amount of information during the influx was negligible. Trying to stay awake did not require much effort, but as long as she did not resist it, the memory influx was a convenient sleep-inducing tool.
Since her immune system was already upgraded, Ye Shuang was not afraid of catching a flu. She hugged the cushion and fell asleep right there on the couch.
The next day, when she woke up, it was because of a familiar noise. It was not her brother but that golden retriever.
”Are you sure she'll wake up soon? I purposely came over without having breakfast.” Anthony squatted down beside the sofa and reached out his finger to try to poke Ye Shuang's cheek but was stopped when he was within inches of Ye Shuang's face. Having the golden retriever's face up close after opening her eyes was something that Ye Shuang did not expect.
Does this person not know manners‽ Releasing the wrist that she was holding, Ye Shuang sat up with a sigh. ”Tony, in eastern culture, there's a respectable distance between members of opposite genders ,so please respect that next time.”
Also, what's with my little brother? Couldn't he see I was being assaulted? Why didn't he help me?
Anthony moved his wrist with interest. When he was grabbed earlier, it had felt like a machine had clamped on his wrist; he could not even wiggle out of it. Her arm was so thin and untrained, but it had such great strength‽ After all, he was professionally trained in boxing.
He looked at Ye Shuang with a deeper smile before hugging his iPad and sitting on the other end of the sofa. ”Alright, I'll be more careful next time.”
Little Brother Ye rushed over, having no idea that he had earned Ye Shuang's ire. ”Sis, you're awake‽ Tony said that he can help me finish a nightmare raid today, so I promised to invite him over for breakfast.”
