Chapter 229 Engagement
After watching the video in the camera, Ning Zhe left the bathroom, climbed up the outer wall of the prison, and retrieved another camera installed there.

Ning Zhe installed a total of two cameras in the prison. One was on the eaves of the water room, filming the basketball court below. This was the one that was taken down before.

The other one was at the top of the high wall, hidden under the caltrops mesh that was powered by high voltage electricity, and was photographing the ventilation holes of the prison building opposite.

However, when Ning Zhe removed the second camera, the camera’s eye was not aimed at the prison building inside the wall, but at the woods outside the wall. Looking in the direction of the camera, he could just see the cenotaph he had set up for the prison guards under the tree, but the simple tombstone made of a wooden stick with an ID card on it was no longer there.

“Someone has been here.” Ning Zhe stuffed the camera into his bag and jumped back to the ground.

Most surveillance equipment on the market has an automatic tracking mode that can be turned on and off. When it is turned on, the camera will automatically turn its head when it recognizes a moving human object, focus the person in the center of the screen, and track and follow it.

That is to say, during the time when he was away, someone walked through the camera’s surveillance range, from inside the wall to outside the wall, and came to the cenotaph under the tree.

Ning Zhe left the scene, turned into a flying insect and hid deep in the prison building. He hid in a locked hidden room and began to check the video footage captured by the second camera.

The prison was quiet late at night, and the screen was empty most of the time. Ning Zhe fast-forwarded the useless garbage time. Soon, a thin figure walked out from the side door of the prison, and Ning Zhe released the fast-forward button.

The infrared camera has night vision capabilities, but the price is that the image quality and clarity are not as good as ordinary full-color cameras, and the image colors are also distorted. In addition, the high wall where the camera is located is far away from the prison, so Ning Zhe cannot see the man’s facial features from the screen, and can only barely make out the man’s clothes.

This person… is wearing a prison guard uniform.

“This should be the prison guard who untied the upside-down ghost that the prisoners mentioned before.” Ning Zhe watched the prison guard walk out of the side door of the prison without blinking, and quickly crossed the road to the prison wall.

——Chenyugu Prison has three entrances and exits, namely the west main gate for escorting prisoners, the north side gate for transporting supplies, and the east back gate opposite the main gate.

The prison guard came to the side door, took out the key from his arms, opened the small door on the side of the main door for people to pass through, and left the prison lightly and went outside the wall.

The camera on the wall tracked the prison guard the entire time, and the view followed his steps from inside the prison to outside the prison.

Looking at the hurried figures in the picture, Ning Zhe felt a sense of familiarity in his heart.

“The man’s trousers were too long, the wide trouser legs completely covered his shoes, his shoulders were a bit droopy, and the fabric around his waist was too big… The prison guard uniform was baggy on him and didn’t fit him at all.”

He had seen the same characteristics in another prison guard before. That was when he was being chased by the upside-down ghost. He heard a whimpering sound in the lounge next to the basketball court. He used his shadow to sneak into the bathroom and saw a prison guard who was also wearing a loose uniform sitting on the toilet and crying softly.

When I got out of the prison and looked again, the crying prison guard was gone.

“The uniforms for prison guards are all collected according to their sizes. It is very rare that they are not the same size as the guards. Even if there is such a situation, it will not be too different from the guards’ body shape.”

It would be abnormal enough for such a situation to happen once, let alone again.

Ning Zhe watched the prison guard in the center of the screen lower his head, fold up his trouser legs, and walk to the cenotaph under the tree. He came to a conclusion in his heart: “This person is most likely the prison guard who was hiding in the bathroom and crying before. They are the same person.” But if that’s the case, why did he hide in the bathroom and cry before?

Confused, Ning Zhe watched the prison guard in the picture take off his work badge hanging on the wooden stick and throw it away, then pick up the police hat on the ground and throw it away, and finally pull out the wooden stick that served as a tombstone and casually stick it under another tree.

In a sense, this is [relocating the grave].

Looking up and glancing at the surveillance time, I saw that the prison guards were dismantling the cenotaph just before the ghost appeared.

“Fenwu violated the taboo of the snake god, so his luck turned bad. That’s why the prisoners used as bait attracted a ghost who killed Lao Li and whose rules were broken by me right after.”

So, this person is Fen Wu?
But this makes the situation even weirder. Why would Fen Wu appear here as a prison guard? And why would he hide in the bathroom and cry alone?

Even if he wanted to disguise himself as a prison guard and sneak into the prison, he should at least choose a well-fitting uniform. In the surveillance footage, his shoulders and trouser waist were loose, and he looked so sloppy across the screen, which was too eye-catching in such an occasion.

“call……”

Ning Zhe let out a light breath, put the camera into his bag, turned on a flashlight and hung it on the wall, stood up, picked up a broom from the corner of the room, and began to sweep the dust accumulated on the floor.

Today is a good day for cleaning.

When you don’t know what to do, it’s always a good idea to try to improve your luck first.

In the foggy darkness, only the faint light from the flashlight set to the lowest setting illuminated the tall and straight shadow of a man holding a broom in one hand. He was silent and focused on sweeping the floor in this enclosed little room where he was the only one in it.

While sweeping the floor, Ning Zhe took out the notebook from his arms, turned to the second page, and saw the new words written by Xia Yubing.

As he watched, Ning Zhe slowed down his movements: “Bai Fugui… is that true?”

After thinking for a moment, Ning Zhe put the broom aside, took out a ballpoint pen and wrote a long paragraph on the paper:
[Now go to a community called Jiangcheng Junjing in Taoyuan City and tell the guard that you are Ning Zhe’s girlfriend. He will let you in. My house is on the 18th floor of Building A. The whole floor is covered with garbage. The password to my front door is…]

[After entering, you go to the head of the bed in the bedroom. There is a very old wooden cabinet. In the third drawer from the left is a wooden box with a phoenix pattern carved on it. You take the ring out of the box.]

[That’s my grandmother’s wedding ring. I have my grandfather’s one. I need you to get engaged to me, right now.]

In addition to burial, coffining and cleaning, today is also suitable for: [Marriage Matching] and [Engagement].

After writing these words, Ning Zhe spread out his notebook on the box next to him, picked up the broom leaning against the wall, and continued sweeping the floor in the dim little room.
