Chapter 601: Chapter 602: Two Stripes (4)

No!

No, that’s not right!

If it was Moses, his target should have been Huangfu Jue, not her and Gan Tang.

In the camera footage, a familiar figure flashed by, then a bright flame lit up.

Gan Yuan narrowed her eyes to look again, but the video became chaotic with people shouting...

This was during the disturbance in the square, when the situation was chaotic. Gan Tang might have forgotten to turn off the switch; the DV camera swung wildly on his body, capturing only disordered images.

It seemed like the flames suddenly burst out just now. Could the little one have unexpectedly caught the scene at that moment?

She sat up straight, rewound the video to the earlier part, and rewatched the segment she’d seen before.

Indeed, she saw the flames light up.

However, because the camera was shaking, the footage wasn’t clear. Judging from the screen, the fire must have started not far from them.

Huangfu Jue had investigated the cause later on. It turned out that a child’s balloon had exploded, and someone indeed reported seeing the flames...

Due to the chaos, no one was able to give specific details. The square was too vast, and nearby surveillance cameras didn’t capture any valuable clues.

It appears that Xiaotang’s video might, to some extent, indicate one thing—the flames did, in fact, exist at that time.

Gan Yuan painstakingly adjusted the video, and in the footage, that familiar face flashed by again.

She moved the mouse, rewinding the video to play again and caught that familiar figure. Pressing the mouse, the image froze.

She clearly saw in the crowd, a familiar silhouette...

It was a girl, but due to the dim lighting and the distance, the image was not clear enough.

Yet, with her extraordinary vision, she still felt that the figure seemed familiar, as if seen somewhere before.

After observing it back and forth several times, unable to conclusively determine the person’s features, Gan Yuan could only proceed with the video, which then showed some blurry images.

At that time, she must have been leading Xiaotang to the side of the road under the protection of their bodyguards. The surrounding sounds gradually quieted down—that was after Huangfu Jue began to take control of the situation.

"Gan Yuan!" A voice faintly rose, "Are you all right? I was so worried about you just now..."

Even though she wasn’t in the frame, Gan Yuan immediately recognized the voice as that of Qian Xueying.

Next came a loud bang, the camera burst open, and both the video and audio ended there.

Qian Xueying?

Gan Yuan’s eyebrows twitched as she rewound the footage to the previous point, focusing on the silhouette of the girl in the camera lens, her gaze gradually deepening.

The image could not prove that Qian Xueying was related to this incident.

However, at that time, everything was still peaceful. Logically, shouldn’t she have been with her companions on the stands watching the fireworks? Why was she near them?

Moreover, when the incident occurred later on, she appeared close to them quite quickly, yet none of her companions were seen.

Even if they got separated because of the incident, how could Qian Xueying have so coincidentally found her and Gan Tang?

No, it wasn’t a coincidence!

In such a chaotic crowd, the likelihood of encountering someone twice in one evening was minuscule. The best explanation was — she had been nearby all along, which was why she could appear by their side in the shortest amount of time.

Not watching the fireworks but staying close to them all the time, what was her purpose?

The account used to pay the assassin had been traced to Nancy. Their attention had always been focused on Duke Locke. Could it be they were all wrong, and the person who truly wanted to target her was Qian Xueying?
