My Mute Bride

“This is all the surveillance footage of the Burton Group this afternoon.”

Inside the surveillance room of the Riverdale Investigation Bureau, Janice’s subordinate was operating the computer and swiftly displaying the surveillance footage on the large screen. There were eight split screens showing the situation on the third floor of Burton Group’s underground garage.

Gloria couldn’t help exclaiming in admiration, “How amazing!”

Janice stared at the video on the screen with her arms folded in front of her chest. “Do you remember the approximate time?”

Gloria and Victor exchanged a glance. “It was around 2.00PM. We heard Assistant Beckham saying that the doctor had arrived at the garage, so it should be around that time.”

Janice nodded. “Jesse, please adjust the time.”

“Yes, Officer Hawkins.”

The image on the screen played at an accelerated speed and soon came to the time Gloria and Victor had mentioned. All four of them stared intently at the surveillance footage on the screen.

All of a sudden, Gloria exclaimed, “Wait! I see it!” She pointed at the monitor showing the entrance of the garage. “The person driving this car is one of Justin’s bodyguards. I’ve seen him before.”

Janice acknowledged it. “Change cameras and follow this car.”

The screen immediately began to follow the movements of this car in the garage until it finally parked in one of the parking spots. Then, a middle-aged man in a suit and leather shoes got out of the back seat with a box in his hands. One could forgo the white lab coat, but the medicine box was a must for a doctor who was visiting a patient.

“Pause for a moment and zoom in on this image.” Janice walked closer to the screen. “This is probably him. Run a check on his identity and background information.”
