Everything that Charlie told him was roughly the same as what Jasper already knew.
However, he discovered something new from his father’s account of the incident.
There were surveillance cameras in the factory. Although there were not many cameras, they covered
most of the important areas.
However, none of the cameras had captured the scene of the batch of defective steel plates being
moved into the factory.
“I’ve checked before. There are at least three surveillance cameras along the way to the factory.
There’s one at the main entrance, another one at the entrance of the production area, and one at the
entrance of the warehouse. These are all important pathways, but none of these cameras managed to
catch anything on footage.
“Therefore, there can only be two explanations for this. It was either a supernatural event where
everything was the work of a ghost or the perpetrator is someone familiar with the environment of the
factory and acted as a snitch.”
Lucas brought two executives over in a hurry when Charlie mentioned this.
“Mr. Laine, you didn’t notify us when you arrived. We should have come outside to greet you,” Lucas
told Jasper.
Jasper waved his hand while he continued to eat. “You don’t have to be so courteous around me. I
don’t like such behavior. Have you guys eaten? Let’s eat together if you haven’t,” he said.
Lucas flashed a meaningful gaze at one of the executives. The executive rushed off to take food for
them at once.
Not long after, the three of them sat down. The small table was occupied by six people. The
atmosphere was rather lively as everyone huddled together.
“My father told me about the surveillance cameras. Do all of you know about it?” Jasper asked.
Lucas nodded and said, “Yes, Chairman Laine was the one who proposed this idea to us. After
investigating and drawing comparisons between the footage, we didn’t find anything suspicious.”
“If it wasn’t a supernatural event, I’m sure that there’s a snitch among us,” Jasper said in a steady tone.
“I’ve never believed in ghosts. Our investigation will begin with the internal staff of the factory.”
Jasper glanced at Lucas as he spoke, “You’re more familiar with the workers here. List down some
suspects and carry out the investigation slowly. As long as that person has done it, some evidence will
be left behind.
“Look into the people who were in the factory and those who weren’t there on the night of the incident.
Anyone could be the culprit. Don’t spare anyone.”
“However, remember that you shouldn’t cause panic. The factory has already lost a huge order, so
everyone is feeling uneasy. Therefore, you need to carry out the investigation without anyone knowing.”
Lucas nodded sternly after listening to what he said. “Alright, I understand, Mr. Laine,” he said.
Jasper looked at Charlie and chuckled. “Relax, Dad. This isn’t a big issue. Everything will be in the
clear soon. It’ll be alright as long as we avoid similar incidents from happening in the future,” he said.
“Why are these people so mean? Don’t they feel guilty for using such shady methods to plot against
us?” Charlie questioned in distaste.
“Guilt is nothing compared to the benefits that come with riches. Plenty of people have thrown their
conscience away a long time ago,” Jasper said.
“Mr. Laine, Chairman Laine and Madam Laine have been monitoring the production line for days on
end lately just because of that order. They’ve put in a lot of effort. We’re all angry now that something
like this has happened. We must find the true culprit!” Lucas exclaimed right then.
“Dad, Mom, although your work at the shipyard is important, your health should be your main priority.
Don’t wear yourselves out over a small issue like this. That would be real trouble,” Jasper said in a
concerned tone.
Sally laughed and said, “Your father and I have been spending time in a fulfilling manner lately. Now
that we have something to do, we feel much more energized than before. We don’t find it hard to fall
asleep at night anymore. It’s a good thing that we’re busy now. Don’t worry.”
Jasper smiled as he nodded.
Although Jasper continued chatting about some casual topics with them, he still felt extremely uneasy.
