A man in the crowd who was about the same age as the man in the black sweater had a very obvious fierceness in his eyes when he heard someone raise his hand to speak. He turned his head slightly and looked at him with a warning look.

The young man seemed to have anticipated this situation, as he kept his head down and never raised it. But even so, he could feel the gazes of that group of people, like knives stabbing into him.

Lin Xinran's eyes turned slightly, and she locked onto the middle-aged man at a glance, then gave the bodyguard a look.

The bodyguard at the side met Lin Xinran's gaze and reached out to pull the middle-aged man out of the crowd.

The man was in a disadvantageous situation and had no way to resist. He could only let the bodyguard pull him out by the collar, but the look of defiance in his eyes and on his face did not diminish at all.

Lin Xinran raised her eyes to meet his gaze and chuckled, "You're still not convinced? Who did you threaten just now? It seems you're still quite strong. In this case...you all, slap him a dozen more times. Don't stop until he admits his mistake."

The bodyguards on the side obeyed Lin Xinran's orders. When they heard her ask them to slap her, they rolled up their sleeves and did it without saying a word.

The atmosphere in the lounge became strange again.

In the silence, one could faintly hear some people's nervous breathing, and in a corner nearby, one could hear the crisp sound of slapping.

There is a sense of inexplicable harmony in the weirdness.

Lin Xinran nodded in satisfaction, retracted her gaze, and looked at the young boy in the crowd who had just mustered up the courage to raise his hand: "Can you tell me now?"

The boy shrank his neck and walked out of the crowd with a hunched back. His voice was obviously trembling, his fingers were tightly clenched around his trouser legs, and he kept his head down.

"We... yes, we followed M here, but he didn't meet us. He just sent someone to give us the tickets and left. He only said that he would keep an eye on us at the scene and asked us... to work hard."

“Where will you upload these videos?”

The boy's eyes flickered, and he shrank his neck again. He stammered for a long time without uttering a complete sentence.

"Don't tell me? Then you'll be like that person."

Lin Xinran lowered her eyes and picked up the coffee on the table, her voice light.

The bodyguard who was slapping someone nearby seemed to have heard what Lin Xinran had just said. The two of them seemed to be cooperating with each other. As soon as she finished speaking, the bodyguard slapped her even harder.

The sound of "pa, pa, pa" of the slaps was louder and louder than the last, with no mercy at all.

Lin Xinran raised her eyebrows, nodded with satisfaction, and turned to look at the young boy next to her again.

The boy subconsciously reached out and touched his face, listening to the clear sounds of slapping not far away, and felt as if those slaps had already hit his face.

It seemed as if I could already feel the burning pain on my face.

"I, I said, we have a website that has those videos..."

Lin Xinran was stunned for a moment and was a little unresponsive.

Xu Jingqiu was just about to check the website address he mentioned next, but when he heard what he said... that kind of video website, his hand that had just opened the browser paused slightly, and his whole expression became a little unnatural.

"Well, Miss... the kind of website he mentioned should be..."

Lin Xinran suddenly reacted at this moment, her expression became a little complicated, and the way she looked at this group of people also changed.

"So, your business is quite extensive?"

The boy nodded awkwardly and whispered, "Yes... this kind of video is just one of the types. There are many other types of videos on the website."

“Were all these secretly filmed?”

"Um...some are, some aren't."

Lin Xinran was silent for a moment, and the look in her eyes as she looked at the boy changed from complicated to cold again.

"Where's M?"

"I really don't know. He has never appeared in front of us. We have never seen him in person. We have only heard his voice."

"How did you get in touch?"

"...Usually, he takes the initiative to find us."

"Didn't you take the initiative to look for him?"

The boy nodded honestly: "Yes... We have a person in charge in this section. If we need to contact M, we will go to that person in charge first."

"So, your person in charge... is him?"

Lin Xinran raised her hand and pointed at the man in the corner who was beaten black and blue.

The boy cautiously turned his head to look at him, and when he saw that his face was obviously red and swollen from being beaten, his heart tightened and he silently withdrew his gaze, and his body began to tremble.

"Yes... yes, he is the person in charge of our group."

"Okay, very good. Although what you did was not human, you admitted your mistake sincerely. Everything you just said has been recorded on our computer and the surveillance in the lounge has also been recorded. Does anyone else have anything else to say?"

The others lowered their heads silently and did not speak, obviously not wanting to confess voluntarily.

"Bring him here."

Lin Xinran knew that she could not get any useful information from this group of people, so she gave up and turned her attention to the man who was beaten to the point where he could not stand up.

The bodyguard grabbed his collar and dragged him from the corner to the center of the lounge.

"Tell me, who is M?"

The man coughed hoarsely a few times, reached out to wipe the unknown liquid flowing from the corner of his mouth, and gasped for breath. His eyes, which were not big to begin with, looked even smaller because of the severe swelling of his cheeks.

"I do not know anything."

Expected.

Lin Xinran didn't say anything else and gave the bodyguard a look.

The bodyguard quickly searched him and then placed the found cell phone and camera in front of Lin Xinran.

Lin Xinran skillfully began to hack into his phone again.

I can only say it is very clean. Very clean.

This kind of cleanliness does not mean that it has been cleared, but that the phone itself does not have any data files, and has not communicated with others on the phone, so there is no backup at all, and even if it is hacked, nothing can be found.

This only proves that he has more than just this one phone.

It is very likely that this mobile phone is only used in his daily life, and the other mobile phone is the main tool for him to communicate with M.

But all his stuff is already here, unless he didn't bring his phone with him this time...

This is impossible.

In other words, M was right next to him, so the phone had been handed over to him when he left.

Lin Xinran thought of one possibility after another in his mind quickly, and made assumptions and speculations again and again. In the end, he felt that it was more likely that only M was at the scene and was by his side.
