Chapter 82

Nicole nodded. Since Lulu said that they were expensive, at least worth $5,000, and that was an amount high enough for filing a case with the police. She then turned to June. “The Security Department will not agree to let us see the surveillance recordings. I have two ways: first, call the police, but it will be very slow; second, I will use my own ways to help you get things back.”

June barely thought about it and chose the second option.

Nicole seemed to have known that June would choose this option. She took out her laptop and turned it on without hesitation.

Both June and Lulu looked at her, unsure of what Nicole was going to do with such a heavy and clumsy-looking laptop. “Nicole, what are you doing with the computer?” Lulu asked in a soft voice. June also could not help but look at Nicole in puzzlement. She had chosen to let Nicole help her, but it did not mean that she fully believed Nicole. It was just that the bracelet was important to her, and she wanted to get it back quickly. Nicole did not answer, her eyes focusing on the computer screen. The Royal Creek Institute’s security system was comprehensive, but to Nicole, it made no difference.

Quickly, Nicole had hacked into the surveillance system of the Security Department. She rapidly typed on the keyboard and compiled a line of codes, and started searching. It did not take long before she called up last night’s surveillance footage of the corridor. The entire process lasted only five minutes.

She copied the surveillance footage to local storage and then withdrew, erasing every history of her visit seamlessly without leaving a trace.

Lulu and June watched on with their mouths agape. They could not understand a thing about the numbers and alphabets that rapidly popped out on the screen, but they could see the school surveillance footage clearly. They marveled at Nicole’s ability to hack the school’s surveillance system by just using an old computer. The two of them could not say a word. They just waited quietly on one side.
