Gwendolyn felt slightly annoyed. “Is this your problem or mine? If you don’t actively participate in this, I’ll turn you over to the Zipper family tonight!”

“Please don’t do that. I was wrong.”

Joaquin cleaned the water stains from his body with tissues and tidied his hair, before standing up reluctantly.

Gwendolyn chided him further, “Hurry over and open the door for me.”

“Okay, I’m coming right now.”

Soon, the three of them arrived at the surveillance room.

Based on Joaquin’s recollection, they had asked the surveillance room staff to play all the footage from the moment Joaquin entered the VIP room at ten times the speed, looking for any unusual sightings within them.

As long as it wasn’t Joaquin’s fault, then he must have been transported out of the bar to take pictures. Thus, it was impossible for him to have left no trace behind.

Since he had too much to drink, Joaquin felt dizzy and drowsy not long after seeing the surveillance footage playing at high speed and dozens of camera angles filming countless people moving around.

As he was afraid that he might get beaten up, he forced himself to stay awake and continue to view the footage.

Occasionally, Joaquin would tilt his head toward Cedrick, who was sitting next to him, and observe him quietly.

He noticed that Cedrick’s gaze was sharp and steely as he monitored dozens of camera footage simultaneously, without showing any sign of tiredness.

Joaquin could not believe it.

Is it possible for him to spot even the tiniest evidence if dozens of surveillance footage are playing at ten times the speed simultaneously?

While Joaquin was still deep in his thoughts, Cedrick had already instructed the staff to pause the footage.

Narrowing his eyes, he then ordered the staff, “Rewind.”

Unsatisfied with the paused footage, he added, “Rewind the video a bit more.”
