Sammy's gaze flickered, hesitation clear in his eyes, but he remained silent.
Liz, seeing everyone rallying around Roseanne, couldn't help but feel a surge of annoyance. Yet, she couldn't let her frustration show on her face and had to forcefully restrain herself. "You think you know someone, but do you really? Who's to say what she's truly like? What if it's all just an act?"
"Yesterday morning, when I checked, everything was fine with the data. Today, it's gone. I remember yesterday afternoon, Jen and Mr. Stoddard left first, then Sammy and I followed, leaving Roseanne and Mr. Reynolds."
"Mr. Reynolds has no reason to do this, so it must have been Roseanne!"
Liz was assertive, and at first glance, her logic seemed solid.
But Roseanne quickly spotted the flaw in her argument. She looked directly at Liz, emphasizing each word, "You said you checked the data yesterday morning. Did you check again when you left?"
"Of course! Everything was there!"
"Are you sure?"
Liz snapped, "Of course, I'm sure. What are you implying? That I'm trying to frame you?"
Roseanne replied calmly, "Okay, so according to your logic, the data went missing sometime between when you left yesterday and got here today, right?"
"Right."
"Then let's check the security footage."
Jen nodded in agreement, saying, "Yeah, we forgot about the surveillance. Our lab is monitored 24/7."
"Fine," Liz said with a smirk, "Let's check the surveillance then, to avoid any claims of me targeting anyone."
When they arrived at the control room, Stoddard asked the security staff to pull up the last two days of footage.
But the result was shocking—
The surveillance footage was missing.
Jen exclaimed, "What's going on? How could the surveillance video be missing?"
