Chasing His Kickass Luna Back novel Chapter 345

Abby

I can’t believe what I’m seeing.

The footage from Mr. Caldwell’s gallery security cameras clearly shows a hooded figure walking toward the side door of my restaurant on the night of the Alpha party. But on my own CCTV footage, at the exact same time, the figure just keeps walking down the street.

This doesn’t make any sense.

I’ve been sitting in my living room, replaying the footage from both cameras—mine and Mr. Caldwell’s—over and over, trying to make sense of it.

The discrepancy between the two clips is glaring, and I can’t shake the feeling that something sinister is at play here. It’s as if someone deliberately tampered with the footage.

Frustration gnaws at me as I continue to review the footage. I wish I could figure this out on my own, but it’s clear that I need some technical help if I’m going to get to the bottom of this. I grab my coat and the USB drive containing the footage and head out of my apartment for what feels like the millionth time today.

As I make my way to a nearby computer store, my mind races with questions.

Who is that hooded figure, and what were they doing near the side door of my restaurant? Could they be connected to the food poisoning incidents and the other strange occurrences that have plagued my business?

I push open the door to the computer store and approach the counter, where a young man wearing a beanie is busy helping another customer. I wait patiently until it’s my turn, my heart pounding with anticipation.

When it’s finally my turn, I place the USB drive on the counter and clear my throat. “Excuse me,”I say, trying to keep my voice steady, “I need some help with this footage. I think it might have been tampered with.”

The young man, whose name tag reads ‘Colin,’ looks at me with a curious expression. “Tampered?” he asks.
