"Governor Judge, the surveillance system inside the restaurant had been tampered with, and there are no records available." Liam Young replied.
"The explanation given by the restaurant is that their surveillance system has had issues for the past two days and they haven't had a chance to get it repaired."
"What about the surveillance outside the restaurant?" Judge asked.
"The surveillance systems on the nearby roads only captured the scene of Mr Hines entering the restaurant, there's no record of him leaving." Liam Young responded again.
"There's an underground parking lot in the restaurant. Mr Hines might have left in someone's car, or he could still be in the restaurant."
"Hmm?" Judge furrowed his brows.
"I had someone check Mr Hines's call records. His phone had its last call at Celestial Restaurant," Liam Young continued.
"I see, wait for my instructions." Judge said before ending the call. Then, he turned to Billy and summarized the situation.
Billy pondered for a moment. "What's the background of Celestial Restaurant?"
"Celestial Restaurant is one of the most renowned high-end restaurants in Enssea. The owner is a woman named Rose." Judge replied.
"That woman is known as the queen of Enssea. Nobody knows her origin, but she suddenly emerged a few years ago and established herself in Enssea in just two or three years."
"Has SHADOW looked into her background?" Billy asked.
"We have, but we haven't found much useful information." Judge shook his head slightly.
"Also, during these years she's been in Enssea, apart from competing with various forces for territory, she's been quite low-key, so SHADOW hasn't focused on her much."
Billy nodded slightly.
"Should we notify Liam Young to surround Celestial Restaurant with his men?" Judge continued to ask.
"No," Billy shook his head. "Let's go and see the situation."
He then added thoughtfully, "Since someone wants to cause trouble, let's take this opportunity to clean up Enssea thoroughly!"
"Yes, boss!" Judge nodded. He understood Billy's intention. They were planning to set up bait and then capture everyone in one fell swoop.
Two hours later, Stout slammed the brakes, bringing the Land Rover to a stop at the entrance of Celestial Restaurant.
After the three of them got out of the car, Billy surveyed the scene. The main building, eight stories tall, covered a considerable area. The luxurious decorations at the entrance, the magnificent lobby, all were a testament to the restaurant's high-class status.
"Welcome. Do you have a reservation?" A uniformed beauty walked over as the three of them entered the lobby.
"Is your boss here?" Judge asked.
"Hmm?" The uniformed beauty blinked slightly. "May I know who you're looking for?"
"We have some business with her. Ask her to come out." Judge said nonchalantly.
"I'm sorry, our boss is at another branch today. She's not here." The uniformed beauty's gaze held a touch of something peculiar. She could sense a powerful aura from the three individuals, especially Billy. It made her involuntarily feel like looking up to them. Based on her experience, these three were definitely not ordinary people.
"Don't be nervous. We mean no harm. We just want to ask her something. Go ahead." Judge continued.
Of course, he noticed her surprise as well.
"Our boss isn't here..." the uniformed girl took a deep breath before continuing.
