Chapter 2097 “That means he died in the wee hours of the morning.” Cameron lifted her eyelids and scanned at the staff members of the Southern Chamber of Commerce. Then, she asked, “Who was on duty last night?”
A few staff members turned to look at a skinny young man standing at the back. Sensing their gazes, the skinny young man said, “It‘s me, sir. B–But I really didn‘t see or hear any fight.”
The people from The Serpents shouted, “Of course, you would say that. You guys must be helping your own people.” Cameron rose to her feet and replied, “Helping our own people? Then why did you guys come to my place early in the morning? Do you not know that‘s trespassing? So it‘s reasonable for my people to beat you guys up when they found you.
“Moreover, my subordinate said that he didn‘t see any signs of a fight, so why would the corpse appear here out of nowhere? Could it be that he walked all the way to my place after he died?”
“Cameron, the body was found here. This is the evidence, and there‘s no way you can deny it,” Manuel said, his voice filled with rage.
Cameron turned her head around and ordered, “Go get the security camera footage.”
The man behind her nodded and went to the surveillance room. Manuel let out a cold smirk as if he was confident they couldn‘t get anything from the footage. Soon, the man returned and whispered into Cameron‘s ear. “Sir, a part of the footage from last night is gone.”
Cameron fell silent.
“So what now? Where is your footage? Is it gone? It seems like someone from your side is light –fingered. They‘re afraid of getting exposed for what they‘ve done, so they destroyed the footage in advance.” The fact that a part of the footage was gone meant the security camera must have captured something on it. Only the people from the Southern Chamber of Commerce had access to the surveillance room.
‘What a nice move.
Without the footage, they couldn‘t explain why the body would appear at their place anymore. Besides, judging from the fact that The Serpents were so confident that the man was killed there, it meant that they came prepared and were certain that Cameron wouldn‘t be able to prove the Southern Chamber of Commerce‘s innocence no matter what. Waylon suddenly turned to look at the skinny man and asked, “You‘re very sure that you didn‘t hear any noise last night, right?” The skinny man nodded.
