After enduring a few minutes of tornt, she finally reached the window of the planning departnt’s office.
She carefully pushed the window sill and found that it wasn’t locked, allowing her to enter the room smoothly.
However, the surveillance caras inside the room posed a problem, but she was prepared, using a towel to cover the cara from the blind spot of the window.
Once everything was set, she entered the room. It was dark since she didn’t dare to turn on the lights, relying only on the light of the bright moon from outside to fumble around.
Finally, because she couldn’t see clearly, she turned on her phone flashlight.
This thieving feeling had her heart hanging, and her heartbeat accelerated.
On the desk were so blue folders; she opened them and saw that they didn’t contain what she was looking for, so she went to turn on the computer, but the computer required a password, and she clearly couldn’t manage that.
And the drawer also required unlocking...
After working hard for so long, she hit a wall everywhere, and returned empty-handed...
Suddenly, rustling sounds ca from behind, and a black humanoid creature crawled in through the window!
She almost scread but held it back!
The other person also froze upon seeing her, neither of them could see the other clearly, just staring at each other for a long ti.
Then the person asked, "You’re here to steal sothing too?"
The voice sounded like a man, with a thick accent, probably not local.
Having co here with difficulty and then encountering a thief... Elliana thought for a mont and still said, "Aren’t you as well?"
"Oh, dear!" The guy laughed imdiately upon hearing her voice, "You’re a young girl, this fellow ain’t easy huh, I’m called Earthen Yellow."
Earthen Yellow said as he walked further in and said to her, "Girl, since you ca first, let’s split it seven-three, you seven, three, how about it?"
"..." She said nothing, not knowing what to say.
Then Earthen Yellow asked, "Girl, what did you steal?"
Elliana: "..."
Suddenly, she had an idea, so she said to the person, "I can’t open the drawer, found nothing."
"Hey, it’s just a drawer, what’s there that can’t be opened? Shine a light for big bro, I’ll open it for you."
When she took the flashlight from Earthen Yellow, she finally saw his appearance, was he wearing... a plastic flowerpot on his head?
With two holes as eyes.
Of course, she was also wearing a mask with a scarf wrapped around, but she was still "amazed" by this person.
With a few nimble moves, Earthen Yellow opened the drawer, her heart leaped with joy, she handed the flashlight to him, saying, "You hold it."
After searching through a few drawers for a long ti, she finally found the new product launch plan that Luna ntioned, as well as the design plan and drawings.
She quickly took out her phone to photograph these items.
Earthen Yellow said curiously, "Girl, are you taking photos as a souvenir while stealing?"
"..." After taking photos, she said to Earthen Yellow, "There’s no money here for you to steal."
Earthen Yellow, upon hearing this, curiously said, "Steal money? Why steal money?"
Elliana: "? Aren’t you here to steal things?"
"Yeah, I heard there are loads of paper in this building, I’m stealing it to sell as scrap, stealing money gets you caught and jailed for a long ti, don’t you know?"
"..."
She was now baffled, this guy seed to have the proverbial "cat pancake", so she advised, "Brother, why don’t you find a place to wash dishes, this line of work isn’t suitable for you, there are bottles in the garbage bin outside too."
"No, no!" Earthen Yellow shook his head, sighed, and said, "I can’t compete against those old ladies; I gave up dumpster diving last month."
This...
She didn’t want to say much more to this person, so she said, "These are important docunts of others, stealing them will get you many, many years in jail."
"Oh! No wonder you’re taking pictures as a nto, turns out they can’t be stolen!"
"Uh... right!"
Afterwards, Earthen Yellow climbed out the window, and after tying a rope around his waist, didn’t forget to extend his hand to her, saying, "Girl, you grab ; I’ve got a hook, safe."
After closing the window, she realized that this person called Earthen Yellow ca down from the rooftop...
"Girl, I didn’t see your hook? How did you get down?"
"No problem, you go up first, slow down, I have my own way, rember, don’t steal things again, it’s illegal."
"Aren’t you also stealing? You want to retire?"
"..."
Returning to the public area, Elliana looked around and seeing no one, hurried to the elevator, using her phone to press the elevator button, entered after the doors opened.
Soon, she reached the ground floor; she had to retrieve the USB drive from the surveillance room.
Through the glass on the surveillance room’s door, she saw the middle-aged uncle still asleep, showing no intention of waking.
She cautiously turned the doorknob, every slight movent felt like a world-shattering noise.
Finally, she obtained the "USB drive," and her phone still had access to control the surveillance.
After exiting White Orchid’s door, she sat in the car, following Luna’s instructions to exit the control access, which ant it was a success.
It was ti to go ho; the villa was a three-hour journey from here, it would be a long ride.
At the gas station, she chose to refuel, not only was the fuel running low, she was also hungry and wanted to eat sothing from the convenience store.
After refueling, she parked the car in an inconspicuous spot and started walking towards the convenience store.
And in the store, she encountered a familiar face! Just like when they first t, tall and handso, with a warm, friendly aura.
"Yates Zander." She greeted the man in black casual wear, calculating the ti, it’s been a good half-year since they last t, and she didn’t expect to run into him here.
At this ti, the man was holding a bottle of mineral water, checking out, and imdiately looked over upon hearing her voice.
"Elliana? What are you doing here?" Yates was a bit surprised, yet also a bit pleased, his handso face wearing a gentle and warm smile.
This kind of gentleness, enough to make those young girls probably fall for him.
"Just buying sothing." She pointed to the rchandise area, saying, "I’ll get sothing first."
Obviously, Elliana didn’t want to chat much, compared to Yates, the convenience store’s food was more enticing to her.
The items here could be heated for free, of course, she chose to heat them, since she was about to eat.
However, when she was about to pay, she found that Yates had already paid for her.
In order not to owe him a favor, she handed him a rice ball, and Yates, without any refusal, accepted it directly.
"Elliana, so late, did you co out alone?"
Facing Yates’s concern, she nodded and said, "I was just about to go back."
"Then I’ll follow you, it’s so late, I’d be worried if you’re alone."
"No problem, I’m driving, there won’t be any danger." She was now starting to regret entering the convenience store, not only owing Yates for the bill but also now having him escort her back...
She really didn’t want to trouble Yates, after all, they weren’t that familiar, besides acting, they had no other interactions.
"It’s alright, with the company relationship, I still have to call you Madam President, as a company artist, being able to escort Madam President ho is my honor."
"..."
With words to this extent, she really couldn’t refuse, but still said, "Don’t mind , just go about your own business."
"I have nothing much to do, I’m just on my way back to the company, and it’s on the way with your ho at Moonlake Villas." The man said, pointing to the rice ball in her hand, smiling, "Eat it before it gets cold."
