Chapter 3208
Nicole and Jared had arrived at the Riddle Corporation.
Zane was already there when they entered the office, and Lulu, upon noticing Nicole's arrival, promptly excused herself.
"You came in person!" Nicole expressed her surprise.
"Don't worry, I just happened to be passing through San Joto, so I stopped by," Zane replied with a gentle tone in his eyes.
Guessing that Zane was on another mission, Nicole didn't press further and directly inquired, "Any news about Charlie?" "They've checked already. There's nothing unusual around the parking lot, but they found a night security guard knocked out in the control room," Zane explained.
Nicole nodded, already suspecting that the absence of security last night was due to an assault.
"Can we confirm if Aquila was involved?" Nicole continued her questioning.
Their primary concern was whether Aquila had appeared, as his presence could imply that Everett might have escaped rather than being captured.
"It's still unclear, but it seems likely someone helped Everett," Zane stated, his expression turning grave.
"What did you find?" Nicole prodded, sensing they must have stumbled upon a clue for Zane to make such a remark.
Zane sighed and replied, "According to the investigation, there's a portion of the surveillance footage missing from the route leading from Ellar's company. It appears to have been deliberately erased." Regrettably, they were too late to recover that particular segment of the footage.
Nicole's eyes narrowed slightly as she slowly uttered a name, "Jerry."
Jerry, a master hacker, was always at Everett's side and certainly had the skills to accomplish this.
