Zombie Bodyguard-Chapter 1572 - 1569: Trust

Lin Tian understood this time and couldn’t help saying, "So, you can view the surveillance video of that internet cafe through the network and directly see who was using that computer?"

"That’s right, it’s not difficult for me," Nuwa said with a touch of human-like ease. To be honest, if he didn’t already know it was just advanced intelligence speaking, Lin Tian would almost think she was a real person.

But even knowing this, Lin Tian sometimes still had the illusion that he was talking to a person.

"Based on the time the audio file was transmitted, I intercepted the video from half an hour before and after that time point, and I can show it to you now," Nuwa said again, and then another screen lit up, showing the surveillance video.

"One person appears most suspicious. He used the target computer for only eight minutes and then logged off," Nuwa’s voice sounded, and a screenshot appeared next to the video.

The screenshot showed a person of medium build, but no other features could be seen because this person was wearing loose black clothing, with a hood on his head, walking with his head down.

"Play his video," Lin Tian said. In this screenshot, you couldn’t even tell the gender, let alone identify the person.

Nuwa played the surveillance video of the person in black leaving, but he was still walking with his head lowered, and his appearance couldn’t be seen at all. When he reached a certain position, he suddenly stopped and looked up.

This action indicated that he stopped to look at the surveillance camera above, but to Lin Tian’s disappointment, the person in black was wearing a large mask, which, combined with the hood, covered almost his entire face, leaving only his eyes visible. The person in black stayed for just a few seconds before quickly leaving.

Seeing those eyes, Lin Tian frowned, not because he recognized anything, but because the person’s eyes carried a reckless smile.

"It’s probably him, judging by that look. It’s as if he knew someone would check the video," Liu Wenxing said with certainty. 𝘧𝓇ℯℯ𝑤ℯ𝘣𝓃ℴ𝓋𝑒𝑙.𝑐𝘰𝑚

"So, the clue is broken, who would send Lin Tian this kind of information, causing trouble even in high school." Xiao Manxuan analyzed seriously, like a little detective.

Xiao Manxue didn’t speak, just looked at Lin Tian. After hearing those obviously hostile audio files, the first thought in her mind was that it was the Situ family’s revenge, or even the Ji family’s.

But then she thought, Situ and Ji families are Ancient Martial families, and if they wanted revenge, they wouldn’t hide their heads and show their tails, unless they had other purposes.

"Brother Tian, what should we do?" Liu Wenxing asked worriedly. He was good with computers, but when it came to conspiracies and tricks, he didn’t know how to handle them.

"Wenxing, this matter ends here. Don’t get involved anymore. You’re abroad, and without anyone around to protect you, being targeted would be troublesome. It’s not bad now, at least the opponent is only targeting me," Lin Tian said solemnly.

"Okay, I’ll listen to Brother Tian," Liu Wenxing knew what he was good at. For those dangerous things, the best he could do for Lin Tian was not to cause trouble.

After closing the video call with Liu Wenxing, the atmosphere in the control room was somewhat tense, but Lin Tian smiled lightly and said, "I shouldn’t have told you all. Why make it so tense?"

"You can still laugh!" The Xiao sisters glared at Lin Tian at the same time, quite angry.

"Now that you’re being targeted, shouldn’t you act a bit more serious?" Xiao Manxuan said helplessly, looking like she was defeated by him.

Lin Tian shrugged helplessly, "Alright, I’ll be serious, hmm, very serious." The sisters both rolled their eyes at him, finding his seriousness too fake.

"I know you guys care about me, don’t worry, I promise you, nothing will happen," Lin Tian said seriously.

"Lin Tian, could it be the Situ family’s retaliation?" Xiao Manxuan asked, obviously having the same thought as her sister.

"I don’t know, honestly I have quite a few enemies, it could be anyone," Lin Tian also had no clue. Situ family, Ji family, the Sun Shadow Association, Rizhao Group, even those business families, all were possible.

"Anyway, being extra cautious is never wrong. There’s no invincible person in this world; if they find a way to restrain you, you’ll be in danger," Xiao Manxue said seriously with deep concern in her eyes.

"Especially since you’re about to start a new school, in a new environment, you need to be more cautious," Xiao Manxue reminded again. Even though she usually didn’t talk much, whenever it was about Lin Tian’s safety, she couldn’t help giving more advice, completely different from her usual cool and aloof demeanor.

"Speaking of starting school, where will the second miss be staying, in the student dormitory or elsewhere? If she’s staying in the dormitory, I can’t provide close... cough, close protection, after all, I’m still getting paid as a bodyguard," Lin Tian said seriously.

"Rest assured, I’ve already arranged it; you’ll live in the student apartment with Xuanxuan," Xiao Manxue said calmly, as if not hearing Lin Tian’s playful intention.

"Sis, will I be living in the same apartment as Lin Tian?" Xiao Manxuan’s face turned slightly red as she stared with wide eyes.

"Xuanxuan, don’t worry. Although Lin Tian flirts around, he won’t bully you," Xiao Manxue glanced at Lin Tian, as if saying these words for him to hear.

Lin Tian immediately protested, "Ladies, I’d like to correct two misconceptions. First, I’m currently single, no girlfriend, no lover, so where’s the flirting coming from? Second, you’re seriously doubting my manly capabilities; we might need you to experience it first-hand."

"You wouldn’t dare!" The sisters glared at Lin Tian, speaking in unison. Xiao Manxue threateningly said, "If you dare bully Xuanxuan, I won’t forgive you."

"Rest assured, not only will I not bully, but I’ll be very gentle," Lin Tian said intentionally with a cryptic tone.

Unexpectedly, the sisters snorted, turned around, and left, completely ignoring Lin Tian’s "threat."

Lin Tian felt like he’d suffered a massive blow, and looking at the holographic image of Nuwa in front of him, he said helplessly, "Nuwa, you’re also a woman, tell me—do I really look that harmless?"

Nuwa, not one to joke, said earnestly, "First, correction: I’m essentially just a program, without gender differentiation. The reason my appearance was designed as a woman is because Chairman Xiao and President Xiao are both women. As for your question, I think the only reason is that they absolutely trust you."

"Absolutely trust?" Lin Tian touched the center of his brow and laughed, "There’s nothing absolute in this world. At least so far, I haven’t seen the Xiao Family’s Elixir Recipe."

Lin Tian thought that after knowing he was a pharmacist, the eldest miss would bring out the Elixir Recipe, but in fact, she hadn’t.

"The eldest miss didn’t show you the Elixir Recipe because of the Xiao Family’s legacy instructions, not about trust," Nuwa added with rare seriousness in her tone.

Lin Tian nodded, understanding, and as he turned to leave, he paused, "Nuwa, one question: if you could become human, would you prefer to be a woman or a man?"
