Chapter 6: Monitoring
The friend who installed the monitoring called me to pay attention to the monitoring of the supermarket opposite, saying that the camera outside the supermarket was raised too high, which did not conform to the logic of installing monitoring.
In fact, I don't know much about the installation of surveillance, and I don't understand what's wrong with the camera being high, so I asked again and asked him to make it clearer.
He said that the normal installation of surveillance does not raise the camera so high, because the purpose of installing the camera is to prevent thieves, once the house comes to the thief, or there is an accident at home, you can find the incident through the guΓ² surveillance video. But the surveillance of the supermarket opposite did not play this role, because the camera was raised too high, and the picture in front of the supermarket could not be taken at all, but the main entrance of the elder brother's house could be photographed.
I began to understand what he meant, but I asked a question anyway. I asked him if it would be a technical problem with the installation workers, after all, it is impossible to find a large installation company in a small supermarket like the opposite, at best it is to find two odd jobs, maybe the workers are not skilled, so they will pretend to be like that.
He said that this is not possible, and that this may happen in other areas, but not in the field of electronic surveillance. The pursuit of electronic monitoring is no dead end, which is the truth that any installer understands, and there will never be an installer who makes such a low-level mistake.
He also said that even if someone really makes this kind of mistake, then at the final acceptance, the problem will be found through the monitoring screen. After all, the current bosses are not stupid, and there is no boss who does not look at the picture after installing the surveillance.
He asked me again if I was familiar with the supermarket owner opposite, and I said that I was not very familiar, but I occasionally said a few words when buying cigarettes and alcohol in the supermarket, and I rarely met each other.
He said, that's right, since you are not familiar with others, why should they spend their own money to install monitoring, show the door to your home, and prevent thieves for your home, isn't that sick?
As soon as I thought he had a point, I really needed to take it seriously.
After hanging up with my friends, I was thinking about monitoring. And linked the matter of monitoring with the matter of the jade pig dragon. Although it was a random connection, I found it surprising.
I assumed that these two things were done by one person, and I smoothed out my thoughts again.
First of all, someone stole our family's jade pig dragon, and while I was away, put the jade pig dragon in the senior brother's house.
So how did this person know I wasn't at home? It is very likely that it is the surveillance of the supermarket opposite TongguΓ², because it can be clearly seen from there when I left the elder brother's house.
If what happened is as I analyzed, then the person who stole the jade pig dragon must have something to do with the supermarket opposite, or in other words, the person who stole the jade pig dragon is likely to live in the supermarket opposite.
I thought about the owner of the supermarket for a moment and realized that it couldn't be this person. Although I haven't been in contact with this person for a long time, this person's words and deeds don't look like a scheming person. I thought about who else was in the supermarket for a while, and the other was the boss's daughter-in-law, but this woman now has a big belly, it is said that she is seven or eight months old, and it is impossible to go to my house with a big belly to steal the jade pig dragon, and I feel that it will not be her.
For a moment, thinking reached an impasse again.
I clearly knew that the person who stole the jade pig dragon was probably related to the supermarket opposite, but I couldn't imagine who this person could be. I even thought about the people who often go to the supermarket every day to buy things, but I still didn't find anyone suspicious.
No matter how you think about it, I feel that the supermarket owner is the most suspicious, if it is really him, then this person's city government is too deep, and he is definitely not an easy person to deal with.
I stood at the window on the second floor, looking at the supermarket opposite, and thought, when was this monitor installed? If this supermarket had been installed when it opened, it would have been at least five or six years old.
In five or six years, how many things about the senior brother's family have to be recorded, it feels terrible to think about it.
I didn't dare to stand at the window for too long, for fear that the supermarket people would notice me, and when I retreated into the room, a question suddenly came to my mind.
Since the surveillance can record the entry and exit of the senior brother's house, it will definitely also record the person who stole the jade pig dragon and entered and exited here.
Thinking of this, I was a little happy in my heart, and my heart said, it's really smart but clever and mistaken, you can think of using a camera to monitor here, but you ignore it, as long as you have been here, you will also appear in the surveillance screen.
Of course, there is also the question of how can I see the surveillance footage.
If the person who stole the jade pig dragon has something to do with the supermarket, then the supermarket owner will definitely not show me the surveillance footage, and I have to find a way to see it.
I thought about it for more than 30 minutes and came up with more than a dozen solutions, but in the end I felt that it was not feasible, either it was too troublesome, or it was too destructive and unnecessary.
After thinking about it, I think it's better to be simpler, and there is no need to make it so troublesome, so I went directly to find a reason, and said that there was a thief at home, and I helped adjust the monitoring to see.
If the supermarket owner agrees, I will have a chance to see that person, and if he does not agree to show me, then it proves that there is something wrong with him, and it is likely that he is the one who stole the jade pig dragon, and even if it is not him, it must have something to do with him.
Of course, I'm not afraid that he will delete the video, as long as he deletes it, it will prove that he is the most suspicious, and I can almost determine the target.
After thinking about it and deciding to do it, after going downstairs, I walked directly to the supermarket, and as I walked, I said in my heart that as long as I was sure that this matter had something to do with the supermarket, it would be easy to do.
The supermarket opposite is actually not big, his whole house is not 100 square meters, and part of it is living space, and the actual operating area of the supermarket is only 50 or 60 square meters. The checkout counter is placed on the side next to the doorway, and the monitoring computer is also placed there.
After leaving the gate of the elder brother's house, I deliberately trotted up, pretended to be in a hurry, and ran directly to the supermarket. When I got to the glass door at the entrance of the supermarket, I didn't slow down at all, and rushed in as soon as I pushed the door.
Maybe I played it so realistically that I startled the boss who was sitting at the counter, and even the two neighbors who were shopping inside.
After the boss reacted, he made an instant action that caught my attention. He raised his hand and turned off the monitor of the computer in front of him.
I looked at it, it was something wrong, and my heart said, did this guy guess that I was going to look at his computer.
But if you think about it carefully, it is impossible, even if he is the one who steals the jade pig dragon and understands me and our family, it is impossible to understand my heart, unless, he can read minds.
After a little thought and hesitation, he spoke first and said, "Why are you in a hurry?" Scared me. β
After seeing him speak, I hurriedly said: "I'm just here to find you, if you have something urgent, do me a favor, and your home monitor will lend me a look." As I spoke, I pretended to be in a hurry.
"What's wrong?" The supermarket owner asked curiously.
"Don't mention it, we're a thief."
"Your house is a thief, call the police, come to me to see what the monitoring is for." The supermarket owner looked at me strangely and said.
As soon as he finished speaking, the neighbor who bought something inside asked me if I had lost any valuables, so I borrowed the donkey from the slope and replied: "I didn't lose anything, it's not worth calling the police, I don't want to come to the supermarket to see the surveillance, if I photograph the person who stole something, I will go to the police." β
When the two neighbors heard this, they all said, "You have to look carefully, this is not only for yourself, but also for all of us, catch the thief, lest he steal other people's houses again."
I said in my heart, this is good, I am alone here, you can find a reason to refuse me, not let me see the surveillance, and now they are all speaking for me, see what you say.
The supermarket owner stood there without saying anything, looking very embarrassed. I didn't think he had anything to say, so I walked directly to the counter quickly, saw that the computer case was still open, and raised my hand and pressed the switch on the monitor.
The moment the monitor lit up, I was shocked, completely shocked. The picture on the monitor is something I would never have dreamed of, and it is a romantic action movie.
When I looked at the supermarket owner again, his face was full of shyness and I was very embarrassed. I said in passing, it's all men, understand! Understand!
After shrinking his hair, I clicked on the surveillance footage of their house, and the surveillance footage I could see was all indoor, and none of them were outdoor.
I pretended to understand very well, and while operating the computer, I said: "How is the outdoor monitoring of your home separated, and the play is quite advanced." β
"Don't laugh, I don't have outdoor surveillance in my house. Just my small broken shop,Take care of it at a glance.,How can you still use outdoor monitoring.,Besides,We don't put things outdoors.,Isn't it wasted to install monitoring.γ β
As soon as I heard what the supermarket owner said, I became angry, and said in my heart, you look at the wool film, and you don't learn to be hard below, but you have learned to have a hard mouth.
I pointed my hand at the monitor on the outside wall of the supermarket, and he glanced at it, laughed, and said, "That's what you're talking about?" It's not our family. β
"What? It's not yours. I looked at him in amazement, he nodded, and I then asked, "Then whose family is this?" β
"This was installed by the government department when the road was being built a few years ago, saying that it was for ease of management."
"Why is it still installed on the exterior wall of your house?" I asked curiously as I looked out.
"Didn't we build a road at that time, so we installed it on the outer wall of our house. You see that the monitoring line is all down with the line of the street lamp. β
I went out with the supermarket owner to take a few looks, and it was really what he said, the camera line was in an iron pipe, leading directly to the ground, ostensibly a pipe with the line of the street lamp.
"Which department installed this surveillance? I'm going to have to find this surveillance footage, and if the thief is recorded, won't it be able to bring the thief to justice? I said.
"I really don't know this, but I remember that when I came to install, there were a few people in uniform, and after the installation, they were given a few hundred yuan, saying that the wall could not be used in vain, and the government gave compensation, but it is not clear which unit it is."
I looked at the supermarket owner, it didn't look like he was lying, so he didn't ask anything else, and I guess I couldn't ask anything, so I jokingly said to him, I have time to secretly send me your seeds.
