Chapter Twenty-Four: The Suspicious Alice
In order to find out the situation, Xiao Ai and Lori plan to go to the place where Ah Miao's body was found to have a look. As Lowry says, it's a relatively remote alley, lined with the back doors of restaurants or bars, usually with waiters or chefs coming and going, and of course, garbage trucks. Ah Miao was found next to a garbage can.
As the pet of the Earl's young lady, it stands to reason that Ah Miao would not be able to appear in such a place. "Did Miao get lost by herself?" Xiao Ai asked.
"No way, these pets will be implanted with chips, as long as they leave the limited range, an alarm will be sounded, Ah Miao is not allowed to leave the Earl's mansion, otherwise it will not be good if he comes back with some germs from outside." Lori is familiar with this type of pet.
"Then how was Ah Miao discovered?"
"It was found through the chip positioning, but the tracking data of how Ah Miao left the Earl's Mansion before is gone, the police said that it may be related to the chip company's upgrade system, the chip company failed due to the upgrade of the chip tracking system, and the chip failed to track Ah Miao, Ah Miao ran out of the mansion by herself, and then died because she was too old and unfamiliar with the outside environment."
"How can there be such a coincidence." Xiao Ai pursed his lips and asked, "Can I get the data of the chip?" ”
"Alice should have it there."
That night, Lori visits Alice with little Ai, because Lori is a frequent visitor to the Earl's house, and the Count and his wife are ordinary friends, and they do not pay attention to their conversation.
They told Miao's owner, Miss Alice, about the cause of Miao's death.
After listening, Alice was silent for a while, and then took out a pair of earrings inlaid with citrine and gave them to Lori: "This is the reward promised at the time, please find out the cause of A-Miao's death at that time, and now that it is clear, the reward should be paid to you." Still, I hope you can help me find out what exactly Miao's experience has been. Ah Miao is older than me, and she has been with me since I was born, and I don't want her to die like this without knowing it. ”
"Brother Lori, I think my house is haunted." Alice hugged the rag doll tightly and whispered.
"Children are afraid of ghosts, don't worry, it's going to be fine. You can ask your mom to spend more time with you. "Lori thinks Alice is cute.
"I didn't dare to tell them, I think they all knew that there were ghosts in the house, but they were deliberately hiding it from me." Alice urgently needs to confide in someone: "I once went to a cellar in the back garden when I was chasing Ah Miao, and I heard a whining sound in a box in the cellar, and I told the housekeeper about it, and the housekeeper said that I had heard it wrong, and my mother blamed me for saying that the girl should not go to that place, but I just knew that I was not wrong, I heard it wrong. ”
"There's a chest in that cellar? How big? ”
"There are several chests in the cellar, almost as long as my height."
"Could it be a sound from somewhere else, you heard it wrong."
"No, it's the voice of the ghosts, but they've all been sent away by the car."
Hey? Little Ai and Lori were already starting to feel that Alice was babbling gibberish.
"Really, what I saw, I saw in the attic window one night when I went to pick up the hairballs that Ah Miao had taken away, there were many girls about my age who came out of the cellar one by one, got into a big car and drove away, and the butler was still watching."
"Can you take us to that attic?" Xiao Ai wanted to take a look.
"Okay." Alice was happy to see that Xiao Ai believed what she said.
The Earl's Mansion occupies a large area, there are several buildings, Alice lives in a small independent building, which is taken care of by a servant, this building is not far from the back garden, and from the attic window, you can see the cellar.
"What do the little girls who come out of the cellar look like?"
"I can't see what they look like, but they're ghosts, and they don't communicate with each other as they line up."
Xiao Ai and Lori were confused for a while, so they took Ah Miao's chip and left first. Back in the dormitory, Xiao Ai asked Pei Lan for help, wanting to see if it was possible to repair the data of the chip.
In addition, Xiao Ai and Lori shared a citrine earring, Xiao Ai removed the citrine and carefully threw it into the small water basin where the green lotus was raised, and the citrine became more and more crystal clear in the water.
Within half an hour, Perrin recovered the chip data. "Wow, Perrin, you're amazing." Xiao Ai sighed. "Where, this is very simple, someone modified the chip data, and wanted to delete the chip positioning function, who knew that the chip system was upgraded, the positioning function was not deleted, and the previously deleted data was also easy to recover, this job is not difficult at all."
"Someone deleted the data?"
"Well, deleted directly from the user's system, not from the background, all the recovery is really simple."
In other words, someone in Alice's family deliberately deleted Ah Miao's chip tracking data. Xiao Ai hurriedly called Lori.
Judging from the recovered data, Ah Miao showed no signs of life in a room on the third floor of the Earl's house, and then the body was taken to an alley far away from the Earl's house.
"It looks like it's a room with a high concentration of Asthanesitization liquid." Lowry agreed.
How do you prove it? Xiao Ai and Lori discussed it for an afternoon, and finally came up with a plan. The next day, the two went to the Earl's Mansion again to meet Alice, and since they were friends of the young lady, the guards were more relaxed about their security checks, so that the pretending to be a brooch pinned to Xiao Ai's suit was actually a small flight surveillance device that was not searched.
The small flight monitoring device is in the shape of a butterfly, and if you don't look closely, even if the flight monitoring device is accidentally spotted, it will be considered a real butterfly. The butterfly was manipulated by Lori to find the room on the third floor of the East House, but because the door was locked, it had to stop on the edge of the door and wait for an opportunity. When everything was ready, the two left the Earl's mansion. As long as you enter the target area, you can monitor the target even elsewhere.
This small flight surveillance device is not very high-tech, and it is not an advanced surveillance facility in the interstellar age, so it can be bought in ordinary places, even children's toys. However, the disadvantage of this kind of monitoring equipment is that it is easy to be blocked, which is why Xiao Ai and Lori must enter the Earl's Mansion, because the little butterfly herself can't pass through the security system of the Earl's Mansion at all.
