A Dog-Eat-Dog Plot

After Xu Mu clearly saw the face in the distance, he couldn't help frowning.

She was wearing a mask and a hat, but there was no mistake about those eyes. It was Meng Wanyue.

Xu Mu was a bit puzzled. Why did Meng Wanyue come here? Did she have another mission?

Thinking of this, Xu Mu continued to expand his perception range to see what Ye Tong was doing at home.

Suddenly, Xu Mu's eyes turned cold in an instant. Besides Ye Tong, there was also a man at home.

That man was inside the villa at this moment, connecting wires at the router.

Xu Mu immediately stepped on the accelerator and drove to the villa. He first rolled down the window and greeted Meng Wanyue standing at the door over there.

"Hey, Wanyue, what's going on?"

"Is Mr. Xu back?"

Meng Wanyue quickly walked over and whispered, "The people in the house are not good guys."

"I'll park the car first."

Xu Mu drove the car to the underground garage and then walked out directly.

Meng Wanyue, who was waiting not far away, whispered, "My digital binoculars can record videos. Just now I found a man sneaking in. He should be destroying something."

"Come into the house with me first."

After hesitating for a moment, Xu Mu walked into the villa with Meng Wanyue.

After pushing open the door, Ye Tong, who was sitting on the sofa, immediately stood up. "You're back? And Wanyue is here too?"

"Just now Wanyue and I had a meeting together. I thought I hadn't invited her yet, so I brought her back with me. Anyway, it's not far away."

As Xu Mu was speaking, he looked at the corner beside him.

A man in work clothes was connecting a machine to the optical modem.

"What's going on?" Xu Mu asked.

"Just now our internet went out. Originally, I was going to make a phone call, but unexpectedly, I just met their staff at the door."

Ye Tong looked at Xu Mu and explained.

Xu Mu nodded slightly.

"Okay, the internet is back to normal."

A young man over there stood up with a smile. "If there's nothing else, I'll go back first."

"Thank you." Ye Tong said with a smile on her face.

"You're welcome."

After saying that, the young man left.

Ye Tong followed him to the door and then closed the villa door.

She turned around and asked, "Have you had dinner?"

"Not yet. Let's wait a while and then eat."

As Xu Mu was speaking, he took out his phone and sent a message to Ye Tong.

After seeing the message, Ye Tong's face changed a little. Then she smiled and said, "By the way, the light in the bedroom is broken. Can you fix it?"

"Just right, Wanyue, come and give me a hand."

Xu Mu glanced at Meng Wanyue and said.

Meng Wanyue nodded and followed Xu Mu to the master bedroom on the second floor.

After the three of them entered the room, Meng Wanyue first put a finger in front of her mouth.

She walked towards the router beside her, took out a small device from her body, and plugged it in.

Then she turned on her phone and connected it to the device.

After seeing the data on her phone, Meng Wanyue let out a sigh of relief. "It's okay here."

"What on earth is going on?"

Ye Tong grabbed Xu Mu's arm and asked.

"Wanyue, you tell her."

Xu Mu said from the side.

"Sister Ye, this is a video I recorded half an hour ago."

Meng Wanyue opened a recorded video on her phone.

"Isn't this our yard? Where did you get this video?" Ye Tong asked curiously.

"Um, I..."

"I asked her to record it. Recently, there have been some troubles in our family, so I came up with this idea. Wanyue's place can just overlook our yard."

Xu Mu explained from the side.

"I see."

Just as Ye Tong was speaking, she pointed at the phone and said, "Why is there someone breaking into our yard?"

"That's right. Pay attention to this time."

At this point, Meng Wanyue looked at Xu Mu and asked, "Mr. Xu, there should be cameras in the yard, right?"

"Yes!"

Xu Mu opened the laptop beside him and checked the cameras in the yard.

Ye Tong and Meng Wanyue gathered around to observe and found that no one had broken in.

But after a careful look, they found that there were a few minutes missing from the camera footage.

Ordinary people simply wouldn't notice.

"Understood? The disconnection of the internet was caused by that man. His purpose was to get into the house."

Meng Wanyue continued, "His device disrupted your internet and connected to your home cameras."

"What?"

Hearing this, Ye Tong's expression trembled suddenly.

"Look at what's shown on my phone. The cameras filming the living room and the yard can now be remotely controlled."

Meng Wanyue explained, "Moreover, they can also delete the recordings at will."

Ye Tong was a bit dazed. Suddenly, her eyes lit up as she remembered something she heard at Xu's Manor.

"Xu Mu, could it be because of that prescription?"

"Most likely."

Xu Mu showed a faint smile.

Actually, he already had a suspect in mind, and that was Lin Yang.

In the eyes of outsiders, he was still a good-for-nothing prodigal son. If it was really for the prescription, who would be stupid enough to hack into his home?

Currently, the only person interested in him was Lin Yang.

Of course, that son - in - law should also hate him. But his three - year term wasn't up yet. He couldn't even handle his own wife's affairs. How could he have the time to deal with him?

So, it's most likely Lin Yang.

"Hey, Wanyue. You're so amazing. Can you handle this?" Ye Tong turned to Meng Wanyue and asked.

"Sure. I'll delete their programs right away."

Meng Wanyue nodded.

"Wait! Don't do anything for now."

Xu Mu suddenly raised his hand to stop her.

"What's up?" Ye Tong asked curiously.

Xu Mu smiled. "Because I have some news to share with the person behind the camera."

He remembered the recording in his hand, which was the conversation between Feng Yue and Qian Gang.

If Lin Yang got hold of this recording, there would surely be a fight between them.

Lin Yang was a smart guy. If Xu Mu offered the recording to him on purpose, he would definitely be suspicious.

He might even think that Xu Mu had fabricated a fake recording to sow discord.

But if he overheard it through the camera, he would surely believe it.

Moreover, this incident was real. With his capabilities, he could easily find out the truth with a little investigation.

Let Lin Yang and Feng Yue fight it out.

"Okay. Call me whenever you need me."

Meng Wanyue nodded.

"Wanyue, what exactly do you do? You seem to know so many things." Ye Tong stepped forward and hooked her arm around Meng Wanyue's.

Meng Wanyue felt a bit awkward and didn't know how to answer.

As a killer, she had to be proficient in skills like eavesdropping and gathering intelligence.

She only knew these things and was completely clueless about other stuff.

"Wanyue used to be a hacker," Xu Mu said with a smile.

"Really? That's so cool!"

Ye Tong was extremely surprised. Her face was full of gratitude. "Wanyue, we're so lucky to have you. Otherwise, all our family secrets would have been eavesdropped on."

Xu Mu also nodded in agreement.

"Sis Ye, it's my pleasure." Meng Wanyue scratched her head shyly.

...

On the other side.

Lin Yang was lying on the hotel bed. He was holding his phone, and the video on it showed the living - room of Xu Mu's villa.

After Meng Wanyue left, Xu Mu sat on the sofa, and Ye Tong was busy in the kitchen.

"Kid, I don't believe I can't dig out any dirt on you," Lin Yang grinned. "This is the price you pay for offending me."

Just then, as Lin Yang was speaking, his phone rang. He immediately answered it.

"Boss, Feng Yue and Qian Gang went out today, and they still haven't come back. We don't know what they're up to."

A voice came from the other end of the line.

"Those two? Could they have started their operation?"

Lin Yang frowned. "Keep an eye on them."
