Twins in Her Womb (Bianca and Luke Crawford novel) novel Chapter 3092

Luke wondered how many people from the Island of Despair were still lurking around him.

They certainly were not important people to him, but they were tasked with monitoring his work and life.

Since they were not particularly important, he would not bother investigating their backgrounds thoroughly.

At the same time, he thought about the flawless new identity Abel gave Luca. There was not a single flaw in her background check. There was not even the slightest issue during verification.

If it were not for his sharp intuition and his familiarity with Luca, he would not have paid much attention to her at first.

Considering Luca's perfectly forged background, Luke knew that even if he investigated, he might not be able to uncover each of those people one by one.

His life had long been under Abel's surveillance.

Luke sat up.

Luca was not deeply asleep. The moment Luke sat up, she woke up and looked at him with sleepy eyes. "Luke?"

"Shh, I'm going to do something," whispered Luke.

Back then, Luca would have definitely held onto him. She would worry about what dangerous thing he was about to do.

When Luca heard that Luke was going to do something now, she sat up and watched him get out of bed. She asked in a soft voice, "Is it dangerous? I'll go with you."

Previously, she was a burden to him, but things were different now.

Even if they were going to do something dangerous, she could protect herself and Luke at the same time.

Luca believed in her abilities.

Luke shook his head. "I'm going downstairs to turn on the infrared alarm."

Luca frowned. She knew the alarm system here was advanced. Why was it turned off?

This place was considered a tourist spot, and the house had always attracted various architects who came to make visits. That was why a layer of infrared alarms was installed on the outer wall of the house.

Normally, if someone tried to climb in, it would trigger the infrared alarm, which would also send a notification to the homeowner's phone. With a press of a button, they could alert the authorities immediately.

"Alright, be careful." Luca thought of Stan Muller.

There was no one else here, and neither she nor Luke would turn off the infrared alarm. That meant it could only be done by Stan.

Moreover, the alarm would become ineffective during a power outage. However, once power was restored, it would restart.

Therefore, even though the infrared alarm would turn off due to a power outage, as long as electricity returned, it would be on again.

There was no possibility of Stan forgetting to turn it back on after a power outage.

Hence, Stan must have intentionally turned it off.

Luke opened the bedroom door and walked out.

He had designed the layout of this house, so he knew exactly where each room was. He went downstairs and found the control room.

Using his phone's flashlight as a torch, Luke quickly found the main unit controlling the infrared alarm. He glanced up along the wires.

All the switches for the sockets were turned off. It was not only the switch for the infrared alarm but the switch for the surveillance cameras were turned off as well.

Luke's eyes darkened. It seemed that Stan had turned them off after they went to bed.

Before they went to bed, Luke had shown Luca the device invented by Adrian, which still displayed the surveillance in the house.

Luke turned on all the switches. When all the devices were connected to the power source, they started running.

Luke did not linger. He quickly left and returned upstairs.
